Hackers are the deadly enemies of any DeFi protocol; the vast majority of DeFi protocols face declines after suffering losses from attacks in the millions of dollars. However, as the leading lending protocol on the BNB Chain and an internally incubated project by Binance, Venus Protocol is clearly a rare exception.

Venus was originally developed by the Swipe team acquired by Binance and launched in the month following the mainnet launch of the BNB Chain in 2020, quickly becoming the largest lending protocol in terms of locked assets and user scale on the BNB Chain. According to RootData, the current FDV of the Venus token is $94 million, and the TVL is $1.47 billion.

The starting point is zero, the goal is TSMC.

Musk is going to make chips himself. It's not about design; Tesla has been developing chips in-house for seven years. This time it's about manufacturing. He announced an investment of about $25 billion to build a chip superfactory named Terafab, targeting a 2nm process, with a monthly production of 100,000 wafers, integrating logic chips, memory, and advanced packaging within the same facility.

The reasons behind it are not complicated. Tesla's appetite for computing power has grown so large that external foundries can no longer keep up. Each generation of autonomous driving chips sees a three to five times increase in computing power, and the mass production of Optimus robots and Robotaxis is imminent, while the world's most advanced wafer manufacturing capacity has already been divided among Apple, Qualcomm, and NVIDIA. Relying on signing foundry contracts to lock in capacity is just a stopgap measure; building factories oneself is the ultimate solution.

The money printer has already started running, and the future ceiling only depends on two major variables.

After January 28, which is about three weeks after the fees began, we published an article (Data estimates that Polymarket's annual revenue exceeds 100 million is not difficult, the premise assumption is ...). The article made a static estimate based on Polymarket's trading volume and trading activity structure at that time: in the most conservative case, if the scope of the fee market remains unchanged, it is estimated that Polymarket can obtain about 38 million dollars in annual revenue; in the most aggressive case, if Polymarket expands the transaction fees to the entire market, it is estimated that it can obtain 418 million dollars in transaction fee revenue annually.
