Odaily Odaily News, Strive CEO posted on platform X, stating that Bitcoin is its minimum return rate standard. The view is that, measured by simple total return indicators, investments in Bitcoin-operating companies over the next 10 to 15 years are likely to struggle to outperform Bitcoin itself. However, supporting the Bitcoin network is important, and Bitcoin is its foundational treasury asset. Part of this involves helping Bitcoin-operating companies grow and succeed. As the balance sheet continues to expand, it may be worth considering investing in Bitcoin companies on a smaller scale relative to the balance sheet to help drive native Bitcoin success.

"Fed Whisperer" Nick Timiraos stated that there are three key points to watch in Warsh's first Fed meeting as chair:1. Will the "easing bias" language be removed? And if so, what will replace it? Since 2024, a sentence in the policy statement regarding "additional adjustments" has been signaling to the outside world that the next move in interest rates is more likely to be a cut than a hike. This language sparked dissent at the last Fed meeting and now appears increasingly untenable. Removing it could satisfy everyone: hawks want it gone, and Warsh can tout the move as a reform rather than a signal of a hawkish turn. Even Trump previewed this move during Warsh's swearing-in ceremony.2. Will the "dot plot" take over as a guidance tool? Who will predict a rate hike? The Fed will release its first interest rate projections since March; at that time, 12 of the 19 officials expected at least one rate cut in 2026. Now, most expect no cuts. I'm watching how many predict a hike—and whether Warsh, long skeptical of the dot plot, will submit his own projection or downplay its significance by not voting on it.3. How will Warsh communicate during the press conference? The Fed Chair's words can move markets only if people believe he commands a majority—that his words represent the committee's direction, not just his own views. Warsh leads a divided group that he may not fully control. If he faithfully conveys his colleagues' views, he can begin building the authority to speak for them; if not, colleagues will express themselves elsewhere (e.g., through dissenting votes). Under a chair inclined to reduce signaling, those "dissents" themselves may become the tools for sending signals. (Jinshi)

a16z crypto has stated in an article that the crypto industry is entering the so-called "Show Me era," where the market and media no longer accept projects relying solely on vision and whitepapers but demand real data and verifiable product deployment. In the past decade, crypto projects often depended on a "vision is the product" logic, gaining market attention through whitepapers, token narratives, and proof-of-concept. However, as regulatory scrutiny intensifies, negative industry incidents increase, and institutional players enter the space, this model is becoming obsolete. Simultaneously, the accelerated entry of traditional financial institutions into the crypto field is significantly raising the industry bar, including BlackRock's tokenized money market funds, Fidelity's ETF initiatives, and JPMorgan Chase's advances in on-chain settlement and building its own blockchain network. This makes "real products and actual usage" the new competitive standard.a16z crypto summarizes the current industry standard as a "proof-first" mechanism, requiring projects to demonstrate clear product usage data, on-chain transaction volumes, genuine user growth, and sustained retention, rather than merely intentions to partner or conceptual roadmaps. The firm emphasizes that "partnership announcements" no longer constitute valid signals; they must be accompanied by actual integrations and verifiable data. Meanwhile, user growth, on-chain activity, revenue curves, and third-party verification have become core evaluation metrics. The article further introduces the concept of a "proof stack," where projects need to convert narrative into credible product facts through a multi-dimensional chain of evidence — real users, independent verification, on-chain data, and established partnerships.a16z crypto believes that the industry's communication logic has shifted from "what you are doing" to "what you have already accomplished." It emphasizes that while narrative and vision remain important, their weight has dropped from approximately 80% in the past to 20% now, as the industry officially enters a competitive phase centered on results.

Odaily A new governance proposal called "Root Reborn" for the decentralized AI network Bittensor is drawing attention. Submitted by developer "unconst," the proposal is currently in the code review stage and has not yet been implemented on the mainnet.According to reports, the plan aims to restructure the TAO staking reward distribution mechanism, transforming validators from passive reward distribution nodes into capital allocators similar to "fund managers." Under the current mechanism, the system sells rewards owed to root-level stakers and automatically exchanges subnet tokens for TAO to pay out yields. This process is believed to create continuous selling pressure on various subnet token prices. The "Root Reborn" proposal suggests that validators could autonomously choose which subnets to support and reinvest the rewards that would otherwise be sold into these subnet assets, forming a compoundable asset portfolio. Stakers would still receive rewards and could exit at any time in TAO.The design of the proposal aims to convert persistent selling pressure into structural buying power, while also giving validators a more proactive screening role in capital allocation, thereby strengthening high-quality subnets and weakening low-quality projects.However, the proposal is still in the GitHub review phase. Early automated reviews have identified risks including large-scale data processing bottlenecks and potential impacts on staker settlements when subnets are shut down. The developer has stated that related issues have been fixed and that optimization will continue before mainnet deployment.According to market data, TAO has fallen approximately 28% over the past 12 months, while Bitcoin has dropped about 38% during the same period. The current annualized staking yield is approximately 17%. (CoinDesk)
