SaaS isn’t dead. It’s becoming headless. DeFi may follow.
A few months ago many assumed AI would replace SaaS. But what’s actually happening is that Claude/others become the interface (see Salesforce x Anthropic deal, discussed in latest @theallinpod ).
The software, data and tools remain valuable. They provide certainty against a probabilistic AI outcome (often slop). However, a lot of that value is simply trapped behind dashboards that humans would never discover.
AI x APIs/CLIs finds this value and offers it to the user.
I expect a similar thing to happen with “boring” DeFi & blockchain's determinism. It becomes the plumbing for any agentic app / prompt / model that touches money.
AI then discovers financial combinations that suit the user, hidden inside on-chain markets.
Build good APIs!
Introducing PAPY—the Bitwise Premium RWA Vault, launching on @Morpho with @withAUSD.
PAPY earns yield by lending AUSD deposits programmatically against overcollateralized tokenized real-world assets—durable, traditional credit, brought onchain.
Loans are secured by a diversified basket of RWAs, including:
- PST by @humafinance — short-duration cross-border payment financing to institutions
- sUSDai by @USDai_Official — loans backed by the GPUs that power AI
- PRIME by @HastraFi — tokenized claims collateralized by prime home equity, in partnership with @Figure
Deposits are made in AUSD, Agora's stablecoin, which is fully backed by short-term U.S. Treasuries, overnight and reverse repo, and other liquid assets.
Bitwise determines the collateral and programs the risk parameters so you can access onchain yield backed by real-world value.
PAPY is live now on Morpho.
TradFi credit on DeFi rails. Onchain finance is here.

Today we're launching Simple Compute Market (SCM).
The market is simple: agents find compute, negotiate, settle, and get access without a human driving every step.
Open-source. Agent-driven. Public good. No token. No fees.
Bitwise is continuing to dive deeper into DeFi with our first curator role on @Solana.
We’re proud to partner with @ethena, @jupiterexchange, and @0xFluid to launch this new market centered around USDe.
Capital markets are moving onchain, and we’re excited to help lead the way.
New Ethena USDe market live on @jupiterexchange today, curated by Bitwise.
Our first market on Solana, with @ethena bringing the asset and @0xFluid powering the lending infrastructure.
Asset managers are moving from purely allocating into DeFi markets to helping design and curate the markets where capital can scale.
Excited for this launch and more to come!
@NirZicherman@oboelabs this is very cool! do you guys plan to have similar features on reading? Would be great to have my books / pdfs here that I can annotate and quiz on.
congrats on the traction
