Castle Labs (@castle_labs) published a post stating that the current crypto market is undergoing a profound paradigm shift—speculative models prioritizing extraction are gradually giving way to investment logic oriented toward revenue generation. The article notes that since 2026, the broader crypto market has performed poorly: most assets have seen sustained price declines, ETF funds have continued flowing out, project shutdowns have intensified, and institutional VC investments have grown increasingly conservative. The key catalysts for this shift were last October’s large-scale liquidation event and the ongoing market reflection triggered by gold consistently outperforming Bitcoin. On the revenue data front, among the roughly 5,700 protocols tracked by DeFiLlama, only 3.5% generated over $100,000 in revenue over the past 30 days—and fewer than 1% actually distributed earnings to token holders. The article focuses on top revenue-generating protocols—including Hyperliquid (HYPE), Pumpdotfun (PUMP), Tron (TRON), Sky (SKY), Jupiter (JUP), Aave (AAVE), and Aerodrome (AERO)—analyzing their price-to-sales ratios (P/S) and token holder return metrics. It argues that protocol revenue—and its capacity to feed value back to token holders—is becoming the core metric investors use to evaluate and select projects. Regarding institutionalization trends, traditional financial giants—including NYSE, Robinhood, BlackRock, and Franklin Templeton—
According to on-chain analyst PeckShield (@PeckShieldAlert), the attacker established a $15 million long position in $Fartcoin (totaling 145.24 million tokens) on Hyperliquid using four wallets. Subsequently, in a low-liquidity environment, the attacker deliberately triggered a “suicidal” liquidation, forcing activation of the ADL (Automatic Deleveraging) mechanism. As a result, the HLP liquidity pool was compelled to absorb toxic assets, generating bad debt and incurring approximately $3 million in paper losses. The HLP has lost roughly $1.5 million within the past 24 hours. PeckShield noted that the attacker likely executed cross-market hedging strategies in advance, meaning the actual net profit may significantly exceed the reported paper loss figure.
