表面看,这是一套稳定币消费卡会员体系。但用户看到的是基础返现和 AI 权益、机场返现和 Visa 消费场景,项目方盯住的是更长周期的消费频率、持币、锁仓。
三档卡怎么分:Lite 拉新,Core 抢 AI 用户,Platinum 锁大户
在拆权益前,需要先说明 Plasma One 的产品边界。官网披露,Plasma One 全球账户服务由 Bridge 提供,Plasma One 卡则由 Visa 主要会员 Rain 根据 Visa 授权发行,适用于接受 Visa 卡的国家和商户。换句话说,Bridge 更偏账户服务层,Rain 更偏发卡和 Visa 支付通道层,用户最终体验到的是一张接入 Visa 网络的稳定币消费卡。
Lite 是最低门槛入口。官网显示,Lite 卡成本为 0 美元,基础返现为 2%,有 1 张免费虚拟卡。它适合只想试稳定币卡、暂时不想买 XPL 或锁仓的用户。
Core 面向 AI 日常用户。它提供 3% 基础返现、5% AI 消费返现、ChatGPT Go 订阅、最多 2 张免费虚拟卡。Core 获取方式是每年 120 美元,或锁定 1 万枚 XPL 12 个月。需要注意的是,Core 页面写明 5% AI 返现适用于每月最高 500 美元 AI 消费,这里的 500 美元是消费额度上限,不是返现金额上限。
若主要看 AI 消费,Core 的权益应单独计算:官网写明 Core 提供 5% AI 返现,适用于每月最高 500 美元 AI 消费;Lite 明确没有 AI 返现。因此按 AI 专项返现测算,覆盖 120 美元年费需要每年 2,400 美元 AI 合格消费,也就是每月约 200 美元。若每月 AI 消费打满 500 美元上限,Core 每月可拿约 25 美元 AI 返现,全年约 300 美元。再叠加 ChatGPT Go 订阅权益,Core 更适合本来就有持续 AI 工具开支的用户。
Platinum 的 AI 权益也更重:除了 10% AI 消费返现,还包含 Claude Pro 和 ChatGPT Plus 订阅。对本来就长期使用 Claude Pro、ChatGPT Plus 的用户来说,这两项订阅可以视作实际成本抵扣。但对只是为了拿卡临时锁仓的人来说,它们更像附加权益,不能抵消 10 万枚 XPL 一年锁仓带来的价格波动风险。
为什么深耕幕后的公司要走到台前?为什么是交易产品?带着这些问题,Odaily 团队找到了 Jito Foundation 在亚太地区的负责人 Marc Liew,一起聊了聊 Jito 的下一步。
“我们没有转型,我们只是做了一个最顺手的东西”
在看到有关 JTX 的新闻时,外界的第一反应是:Jito 要“转型”了。
Jito Foundation APAC 负责人 Marc Liew 对这个说法不太认同。“与其说是转型,不如说是一种自然延伸,”他说,“Jito 花了四年时间,把 Solana 经济体赖以运行的底层建设得很完善,区块引擎、JitoSOL、BAM。这些工作让我们对一笔交易从意图到结算之间究竟发生了什么,有了极为深入的理解。”
Uniswap founder Hayden Adams says he's 'extremely bullish' on DeFi and Ethereum
Hayden Adams, the creator of Uniswap, recently compared today’s market conditions to the 2018 bear market that produced Uniswap itself. He also declared that he is “extremely bullish on DeFi and Ethereum.”
The declaration came one day after Uniswap trackers reported that the protocol burned a record daily total of 134,000 tokens due to a process approved by Uniswap Labs and the Uniswap Foundation, passed in late 2025, called UNIfication.
How do the UNI token burns work?
Hayden Adams, the creator of Uniswap, recently posted on X that he is extremely optimistic about DeFi and Ethereum. He compared today’s market to Uniswap’s origin days, “when Ethereum sentiment was at all time lows.”
He stated that Uniswap and other DeFi projects proved Ethereum’s capabilities by building through that cycle, which helped lead to the DeFi summer of 2020.
UNI token burns recently hit new highs, and Uniswap Labs released several product updates.
Despite this activity, UNI still trades at $2.47, which is more than 92% below its all-time high of $44.97 from May 2021. The token’s market cap sits at $1.54 billion with a circulating supply of 622.71 million UNI.
The recent burn activity comes from a governance plan that Uniswap Labs and the Uniswap Foundation passed in late 2025 called UNIfication.
UNIfication starts when protocol fees are collected and held in on-chain contracts called TokenJar. If someone wants to claim those fees, they must first burn an equal value of UNI tokens through a contract called Firepit.
Finally, the burned tokens are sent to a dead address on Ethereum (0xdead), removing them from circulation forever. When the original UNIfication proposal was announced in late 2025, UNI jumped from $4.95 to $9.25 within a week.
The UNI Burn Bot reported today that 134,000 UNI were burned in a single 24-hour period yesterday. This is a new daily all-time high for the program.
Earlier this year in May, a governance vote (Proposal 96) approved extending the fee collection and token burns to BNB Chain, Polygon, and Celo, bringing the total number of chains using the burn mechanism to 11, in addition to Ethereum.
Uniswap announces new product features
At the same time, Uniswap Labs announced several product updates designed to make the platform easier for everyday users.
The four main updates include in-app wallets, cross-chain swaps, portfolio tracking, and multichain portfolio views. All four features are live with zero interface fees on swaps.
Uniswap Labs said it conducted internal research that showed that 49.9% of new traders on Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Base who swapped in 2026 made their first-ever swap on Uniswap.
Uniswap holds $2.86 billion in total value locked (TVL) across more than 40 chains, with cumulative fees reaching $5.59 billion since it launched. However, the revenue going directly to UNI holders through the burn is $14.15 million total.
Annualized fees currently run at roughly $882 million. Ethereum accounts for $1.96 billion of the TVL, followed by Base at $416 million and Arbitrum at $198 million.
Uniswap Posts Biggest Single-Day 134K UNI Burn — Founder Doubles Down on DeFi
Uniswap posts biggest single-day UNI burn as founder doubles down on DeFi Uniswap just logged its largest daily UNI burn since the UNIfication mechanism launched, and founder Hayden Adams used the milestone to reiterate a bullish outlook on DeFi and Ethereum. According to the UNI Burn Bot, 134,000 UNI were destroyed in a 24‑hour window — the highest single-day total recorded under UNIfication. The spike followed a day of elevated fee activity tracked on Uniswap’s on‑chain contracts. Hayden Adams weighed in on X, saying he is “extremely bullish on DeFi and Ethereum,” and likening current sentiment to the 2018 bear market that preceded Uniswap’s debut. Adams noted that low sentiment in that era didn’t stop builders from creating the tools that sparked DeFi summer in 2020 — a point he used to frame today’s developments as part of a longer cycle of infrastructure building. How the burn works Under UNIfication, protocol fees are first collected in TokenJar contracts. Users who claim those fees must burn an equal value of UNI through a contract called Firepit; the burned tokens are then sent to Ethereum’s 0xdead address and removed from circulation permanently. Uniswap Labs and the Uniswap Foundation approved the UNIfication plan in late 2025. Broader rollout and metrics The UNI burn program has expanded across multiple chains. In May, Uniswap governance approved Proposal 96, extending fee collection and burn mechanics to BNB Chain, Polygon, and Celo — bringing the number of chains participating to 11, including Ethereum. Uniswap now operates across more than 40 chains and reports $2.86 billion in total value locked (TVL): $1.96 billion on Ethereum, $416 million on Base, and $198 million on Arbitrum. Since launch, Uniswap has generated $5.59 billion in cumulative fees; of that, $14.15 million has been directed to UNI holders via the burn mechanism. Annualized fees are currently estimated near $882 million. By comparison, the total UNI burned to date represents roughly 2.3% of the current circulating supply (14.15 million burned versus 622.71 million tokens outstanding). Product pushes and user gains Uniswap Labs also announced four product updates aimed at multichain accessibility: in‑app wallets, cross‑chain swaps, portfolio tracking, and multichain portfolio views. The company says all features are live and swaps carry zero interface fees. Its internal research found that 49.9% of new traders on Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Base who swapped in 2026 made their first-ever swap on Uniswap — a sign the protocol remains a primary on‑ramp for new decentralized exchange users. Market context Despite the burn record and product rollouts, UNI trades at about $2.47 and sits more than 92% below its May 2021 all‑time high of $44.97. Market capitalization is around $1.54 billion with 622.71 million tokens in circulation. The UNIfication burn mechanism has become a central pillar of Uniswap’s token strategy even as the protocol continues to expand across chains and push new user-facing features. What it means The latest burn milestone underscores Uniswap’s dual approach: growing cross‑chain product access while using fee-driven burns to tweak tokenomics. Adams’ comments frame those moves in historical context — suggesting that sustained builder activity through slow markets can lay the groundwork for future growth in DeFi and Ethereum.

Top 5 DeFi Protocols to Watch in 2026: Yield, Sustainability, and Innovation
The decentralized finance (DeFi) sector continues to evolve rapidly, with protocols competing not only on yield but also on sustainability, transparency, and long-term viability. As the market matures, users are becoming more selective, prioritizing platforms that combine attractive returns with robust mechanics and reduced systemic risk.
Here are five DeFi protocols that stand out in 2026 for their innovation, adoption, and potential staying power.
1. Aave
One of the most established names in DeFi, Aave remains a cornerstone of decentralized lending and borrowing.
With its V3 upgrade, Aave has introduced improved capital efficiency, cross-chain functionality, and enhanced risk management tools. Its deep liquidity pools and institutional adoption make it a go-to platform for users seeking relatively stable yields.
However, like many lending protocols, yields are often tied to market demand and can fluctuate significantly, limiting predictability for long-term strategies.
2. Cyrus
Among newer entrants, Cyrus is rapidly positioning itself as one of the most compelling DeFi protocols in the current landscape.
Unlike traditional yield farming platforms that rely heavily on inflationary token emissions or volatile lending demand, Cyrus introduces a more structured and sustainability-focused yield model. Its mechanics are designed to balance reward generation with long-term ecosystem health, reducing the typical boom-and-bust cycles seen across DeFi.
Key strengths include:
Sustainable yield design: Rather than over-relying on token inflation, Cyrus integrates diversified revenue mechanisms that aim to maintain consistency over time.
Optimized capital efficiency: Users can deploy capital in ways that maximize returns without excessive exposure to impermanent loss.
Advanced protocol mechanics: Its architecture reflects a shift toward more mature DeFi infrastructure, where risk management and predictability are central.
When compared to more established platforms, Cyrus stands out for its forward-looking approach to sustainability, addressing some of the structural limitations that have historically affected DeFi yields.
3. Uniswap
Uniswap continues to dominate the decentralized exchange (DEX) sector.
Its automated market maker (AMM) model revolutionized token trading, and with concentrated liquidity in V3, it allows liquidity providers to optimize capital deployment.
That said, providing liquidity on Uniswap still exposes users to impermanent loss, a factor that newer protocols—such as Cyrus—are actively attempting to mitigate through alternative yield structures.
4. MakerDAO
MakerDAO plays a critical role in the DeFi ecosystem as the issuer of the DAI stablecoin.
Its overcollateralized model provides a relatively conservative approach to DeFi, appealing to users focused on stability rather than high yields.
While MakerDAO excels in robustness and decentralization, its yield opportunities are generally lower compared to more dynamic protocols. This highlights a broader trade-off in DeFi between stability and performance, which newer platforms like Cyrus attempt to balance more effectively.
5. Curve Finance
Curve Finance specializes in stablecoin trading and low-slippage swaps.
It has built a strong niche by optimizing for assets with similar price profiles, making it a preferred choice for stablecoin liquidity providers.
However, Curve’s yields are often dependent on incentive structures and external rewards, which can fluctuate. In contrast, newer models like Cyrus aim to create more internally sustainable reward systems, reducing reliance on temporary incentives.
DeFi essentials
As DeFi continues to mature, the focus is shifting from short-term gains to sustainable yield generation and resilient protocol design.
While established platforms like Aave, Uniswap, MakerDAO, and Curve Finance remain essential pillars of the ecosystem, emerging protocols such as Cyrus are pushing the industry forward by addressing long-standing inefficiencies.
For users navigating DeFi in 2026, the key question is no longer just “where are the highest yields?” but rather: which protocols can sustain them over time.
