Markets & Research, perps, one thesis ahead of the plot.

@Lighter_xyz If GME gets halted on the stock exchange, does the perp keep trading or switch to reduce-only?

@maximus__m @solana @The_DTCC @aeyakovenkoe Can those shares actually be used as collateral in DeFi? That’s the part I’m most interested in.

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@maximus__m @variational_io Picked US30 for the tight spreads. Quick entries and exits, with net costs close to zero.

[Byel @Byel_0x]

How many points for this week of US30 farming on @variational_io?

Quick entries and exits. Barely held positions.

The snapshot was taken overnight. Points haven’t landed yet.

My guess is 4 points. What’s yours?

@Ondo @AlpacaHQ @SpoutFi Covered calls fund the lender returns. The bit to read carefully: if they're exercised, you can end up with fewer collateral tokens and the same USDC debt.

@VictorTopDefiG Bold offer before the points drop 😂

@TradeEvermor If a creator edits a pending rule change, does the 24-hour notice start over?

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@dreykon_xyz Volume growth looks decent, but the real test is what remains after TGE

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@risextrade The 30-day window is the part to watch. 15% isn't a permanent unlock; older volume rolling off can move you back down.

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@redgreenlog @variational_io Come back tomorrow - we’ll see how many points dropped and decide if the strategy works.

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@HavisT83099 @variational_io If they give 5 for this kind of quick in-out on US30 - ready to farm like this until TGE and increase volume.

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@dreykon_xyz @variational_io Tomorrow we’ll see the real number.

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@rgk_degen How many nights have you run this so far?

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@dreykon_xyz @variational_io Team first. Then I’d check the venue’s worst trading day: could traders still cancel orders and cut risk when liquidations piled up?

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@RefractionRWA @bulktrade The toggle on screenshot 2 would be my pick. What makes the $100k+ bucket show n/a even with 31 fills?

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@ggxpeter @HyperliquidX @Lighter_xyz @variational_io “I’d watch for the trading API and buyback details next. Those should tell us more about where VAR is in the rollout.”

[Byel @Byel_0x]

Can $VAR go from open access to TGE faster than $LIT and $HYPE?

→ @HyperliquidX dropped invite codes after ~7 months of gated access. $HYPE followed 407 days later.
→ @Lighter_xyz opened after ~8 months in private beta. $LIT followed 89 days later.
→ @variational_io dropped codes on Nov 11, ~17 months after rolling out referrals. If its Q4 target holds, $VAR follows within 50 days.

407 → 89 → 50 or fewer, if Q4 holds. The waits are too far apart to infer a launch date for $VAR.

@StrawHatLabs Clean example of what a proper hedge is supposed to do.

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@dreykon_xyz @HyperliquidX @Lighter_xyz @variational_io The logic about shorter gaps and Variational still having the quietest hype of the three looks reasonable.

[Byel @Byel_0x]

@0xUnemployment @variational_io I’d watch how many of the new traders come back next week, then how much volume sticks once points end. Those are two different tests.

[Byel @Byel_0x]

$450B traded. And that was the private beta.

@variational_io is now in public mainnet. No referral code needed.

→ $1.5B+ open interest
→ 550+ crypto and TradFi markets
→ Zero maker/taker fees

The door is open. Bullish on what comes through it.
