6/ This makes me wonder: What do users think about this? Why would they accept this tradeoff?

[Lauri Marekwia @lauri_valos]

🧵Polygon DAO’s latest proposal got me thinking: Why are users expected to take on more risk without seeing any of the rewards?

1/ Recently, Polygon DAO proposed deploying $1.5 billion in stablecoins into DeFi yield strategies. This could generate $100 million in annual fees using stablecoin yields at 7% interest.

[Lauri Marekwia @lauri_valos]

5/ While reinvesting in the ecosystem is valuable, it feels wrong to sideline the very people who enable the yield generation in the first place.

Stablecoins are quietly transforming the payments landscape.

International transfers through traditional wire systems can now be completed for less than $0.01 on Ethereum Layer 2 networks. But the real opportunity goes beyond this:

Stablecoins are allowing businesses to profit from payments in ways that were once reserved for banks and financial institutions.

Here’s how:

- By shifting users from credit cards to stablecoins, businesses eliminate high transaction fees.
- Businesses can earn yield on the funds flowing through their systems—a revenue model previously exclusive to banks and fintechs.

Those that recognize this shift will gain an edge monetizing the value moving through their products in ways that weren’t possible before.

30-day performance:
ETH: +26.96%
BTC: +17.49%
SOL: +1.61%

A clear shift in momentum📶

Miners are adopting bitcoin yield strategies

- JPMorgan reports that miners are adopting a strategy similar to MicroStrategy’s: accumulating Bitcoin rather than selling it.

Is “Bitcoin Yield” becoming the new metric for success?

@frankdegods Having time on your side means it's crucial to put your assets to work instead of letting them sit idle! #PassiveEarnings #yield

[Lauri Marekwia @lauri_valos]

@HighCoinviction Interesting perspective. Wouldn’t constant profit-taking create resistance? Also curious, what makes you believe long-term holders aren’t the dominant trend now?

[Lauri Marekwia @lauri_valos]

@krugermacro Hard to argue with this. Feels like we’re just getting started.
