Odaily News: Justin Sun has announced a strategic investment of $8 million in River to support its integration within the TRON ecosystem and the deployment of its chain-agnostic stablecoin infrastructure.
According to the disclosure, River will introduce cross-ecosystem assets and liquidity into TRON via satUSD. satUSD can be minted at a 1:1 ratio using USDT, USDD, or USD1, or be backed by assets from different blockchains, enabling users to directly participate in high-yield opportunities native to TRON.
satUSD is planned to be used alongside USDT and USDD in stablecoin pools on SUN, with its price oracle provided by WinkLink. Simultaneously, satUSD will also be listed on JUST for lending scenarios.
This integration will cover core assets including USDT, TRX, wBTC, BTT, JST, SUN, WIN, and NFTs, with native sTRX staking rewards serving as the initial entry point. River also plans to launch Smart Vault and Prime Vault for institutions, offering yield-generating products for stablecoins, TRX, and other core TRON ecosystem assets.

Odaily News Delphi Digital posted on X, stating that fundamental data indicates the current market pricing for volatility may be inaccurate. When implied volatility trades significantly below estimated fair value while Bitcoin is at historical highs, it is often followed by a significant correction. The most recent such signal was triggered last October, precisely four days before a large-scale liquidation event. The opposite is also true; historically, periods when implied volatility is extremely overvalued relative to fair value have typically been excellent buying opportunities.
Multiple leading indicators suggest that current volatility is likely mispriced by the market, and its future trend is inclined towards an upward movement.
Odaily News: Hashed Open Finance, a subsidiary of crypto venture capital firm Hashed, has released a lightweight whitepaper proposing a new Layer1 blockchain concept named Maroo, positioned to serve the Korean Won (KRW) stablecoin economy.
Maroo is designed as a "sovereign blockchain" that balances the openness of public chains with financial regulatory compliance, with a focus on enhancing financial-grade features such as auditability and privacy protection. Network transaction fees will be paid in KRW stablecoins to reduce volatility and increase user participation. Hashed Open Finance pointed out that existing public chains (such as Ethereum) face difficulties in implementing anti-money laundering and KYC mechanisms at the network level, and their highly transparent designs may expose sensitive personal and corporate information.
To address this, Maroo introduces a "dual-track" architecture: an "open path" allows for the free creation of wallets and transactions, while a "compliant path" introduces identity verification and restrictions based on transaction size or scenario. Simultaneously, its Programmable Compliance Layer (PCL) can automatically execute quota and sanction checks during transactions and supports updates in response to regulatory changes; the verifiable privacy framework enables selective information disclosure under necessary legal procedures. Additionally, Maroo reserves AI integration capabilities for authenticating AI agents and managing their permissions and spending limits.
Hashed CEO Simon Kim stated that stablecoins are becoming a crucial part of the global financial infrastructure. Maroo aims to explore a technology-open path that aligns with international standards while respecting the Korean regulatory environment, providing a foundation for banks, financial institutions, and fintech companies to experiment with next-generation financial services.
The report indicates that this initiative aligns with South Korea's direction in advancing KRW stablecoin legislation. Relevant rules are expected to be incorporated into the upcoming "Digital Asset Basic Act" and may be finalized within the first quarter of this year. (The Block)
Odaily News The public sale of Solana ecosystem leveraged prediction market platform Space has sparked controversy. The project originally planned to raise $2.5 million publicly but actually raised $20 million. The team subsequently announced it would refund $7.3 million and retain the remaining oversubscribed funds, stating that the $2.5 million was merely a "soft cap" and not a "hard cap."
The project further argued: "$2.5 million can only sustain operations for a few months. This amount only represents the minimum required for the initial launch and is insufficient to support the multi-year construction of leveraged prediction market infrastructure."

Odaily News Solana co-founder toly stated in a post that if this model proves effective, he believes the optimal capital formation plan for early-stage startups may include three points: first, providing a staking mechanism for long-term holders; second, releasing over 20% of tokens on the day of TGE; third, ideally not introducing investors, but if investors exist, then a one-time 100% unlock on the same day one year after TGE. He added that the remaining outcomes will depend on product-market fit (PMF).
