🛩 Pilot DAO - Flying to WEB3 / CRYPTO

🦄 Major updates in the Uniswap ecosystem The UNI DAO has approved the UNIfication initiative This is a large-scale overhaul of the entire Uniswap model — from token economics to protocol governance.

🔥 UNI burn • 100 million UNI will be destroyed from the treasury (sent to 0xdead) — roughly 10% of total supply • New protocol fees will also be used for ongoing UNI burns 🔀 Aggregator hooks in v4 • Uniswap v4 introduces liquidity aggregator hooks • This allows Uniswap to function as a liquidity aggregator and further strengthen the UNI burn mechanism 🔹 Protocol fees activation (fee switch) Protocol fees will be enabled for v2/v3 pools and other protocol components. A portion of the revenue will now flow into a unified mechanism. 🏗 Governance structure changes • Core ecosystem teams move from Uniswap Foundation to Uniswap Labs • Uniswap Labs will focus exclusively on protocol development 💡 Free products • Interfaces, wallet, and APIs from Uniswap Labs will remain free to use • No fees will be charged for accessing these products 🌱 Role of the Foundation • The remaining budget will be allocated to grants, developer support, and ecosystem growth

💸 LIQUIDITY IN BITCOIN & ALTS: THE FED SHIFTS FROM QT TO QT/QE/RMP New episode on YouTube! The moment has come — the Federal Reserve has officially stopped QT.

🧬 SOLANA vs ETHEREUM, BITCOIN, APTOS, TON: Who Will Be the KING in 2026? By popular request, we continue the deep dive into Solana — the most controversial blockchain of this cycle. “Solana 2” from the creators of “Solana 1”. In Part 1, we covered the dark side (FTX, network outages, meme-casino dynamics). In this episode, we strip away emotions and focus on hard facts. 📺 In the video

• Real-world speed, TPS, and finality: Solana vs BTC, ETH, Aptos, and TON • Why cheap fees aren’t always a good thing • Decentralization in practice: validators and the Nakamoto Coefficient • Why running a Solana validator is a “club of expensive servers” • Why ETFs are not a pump, but a long-term institutional channel • Can Solana become the “third pillar” after BTC and ETH?

💬 Share your thoughts in the comments: Is Solana just a temporary product of hype and degens — or a real foundation for future capital market infrastructure? @PilotDAO 🔝 Let’s fly through WEB3 together!

💸 BlackRock is CRUSHING Strategy: BTC SELL-OFF SOON? A new episode is live on the channel — watch the video. We break down what’s happening with Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) — the company Michael Saylor turned into a holder of 650,000 BTC! 📺 In the video

⚫️ The history of Strategy: the post-scandal collapse and the BTC pivot in 2020 ⚫️ How the company bought Bitcoin at the highs — and survived the lows ⚫️ Why the NAV premium disappeared ⚫️ Why major institutions started exiting $MSTR ⚫️ At what BTC price Saylor enters true stress territory ⚫️ BlackRock & Fidelity ETFs: the new competition for Saylor

💬 Leave a comment: Is Strategy a catalyst for Bitcoin’s growth — or a ticking time bomb that could drag the whole market down if things go bad? @PilotDAO 🔝 Let’s fly through WEB3 together!

So my 2⃣ $ETH wouldn’t just sit idle, I threw it into Compound at 16% Crypto folks are adventurers — on Compound’s lending market the yield for supplying $ETH is around 16%. I don’t think it’ll last long. It’s not even clear why Ether on Arbitrum suddenly has such demand. So where is this yield coming from?!

Available Liquidity: ~$119k Total Reserves: ~$225k Total Collateral: $10.73M ⇒ liquidity is low, utilization is 101.27% — you can see this on the right in the Interest Rate Model block. Compound’s interest rate models have a “kink” (a yield curve): • While utilization is below the threshold (e.g., 80–90%), the borrow rate rises gradually. • As soon as utilization goes above the kink, the borrow APR shoots up almost vertically to: • make borrowing expensive (discouraging more borrowing), • incentivize liquidity suppliers to deposit more $ETH. Therefore: Borrow APR ≈ 19.21% Net Earn APR ≈ 15.43% So the real reason for the spike in yield is a sharp increase in demand for borrowing ETH on Arbitrum (someone took a big leveraged position / pulled liquidity), which caused: • utilization to exceed 100% (basically everything is lent out), • the “steep” part of Compound’s rate curve to kick in, • and the yield for ETH suppliers to skyrocket.

In simple terms: someone borrowed a lot of $ETH in this market, the pool is almost empty, so the protocol is cranking interest rates to the max to attract new liquidity. While looking for Arbitrum news 🏧, I noticed they updated their website — pretty futuristic! Do you have any 🚀 $ARB in your portfolio? Stay strong! I always thought L2s were like leverage on Ether — they drop and pump with extra X’s — but turns out now it only works in one direction, it stopped rising ))) As they say: No crying in the casino 🔥 💧 By the way, I pulled the $ETH out of the Lido Strategy (we shot a 📱 video about it a month ago). The yield there dropped to 6%, and on top of that it was paid out in “funny-money” Mellow points. At least we farmed 3k+ Mellow points (now waiting for their token launch — TGE). 💡 I’ll admit, the DeFi market is dull right now, but profitable opportunities still pop up… Seek and you shall find :) @PilotDAO 🔝 Let’s fly into WEB3 together!

🔷 The first take-profit on $ETH has been locked in. We keep flying! 🔝 Regarding the trades: Congrats to everyone who held Ether and bought the dip — enjoy the profit! ✨ I’ll distribute the remaining speculative ETH higher. The levels will depend on where it stands relative to Bitcoin. For now, I’m watching the OG 🟠. The next levels where I’ll close the entire speculative BTC position are around ± $97K and $101–103K. (I think we can easily reach this within the coming week — DYOR.) Now, about the news: as we discussed on the last stream, early December is packed with global macro events. 💻 News #1 — Global Macro

🇺🇸 The Fed officially stopped QT (quantitative tightening) as of December 1. 🇺🇸 US — JOLTS Job Openings (Sept.) — 18:00 MSK Data already released: 7.67M (forecast 7.200M / previous 7.227M). Job openings are rising — that’s good. A signal toward a rate cut. 🔹 Wednesday, December 10: 🇨🇳 China — CPI (Nov.) — 04:30 MSK 🇪🇺 EU — ECB President C.

💻 News #2

CFTC has allowed using cryptocurrencies as collateral in the derivatives market. The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission launched a pilot program that, for the first time, allows digital assets to be used as collateral when trading derivatives. At the first stage, this includes 🪙 $BTC, 🔷 $ETH, and (yep, really!) 💲$USDC. The “re-collateralization pyramid” keeps growing 😊)) The regulator also issued guidance on tokenized collateral and removed outdated rules that became irrelevant after the GENIUS Act came into force. Coinbase and Circle called the initiative an important step toward recognizing digital assets as a full-fledged part of the financial system.

💻 News #3

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ), speaking at the Bitcoin Mena conference in Dubai, suggested that the traditional 4-year Bitcoin boom-and-bust cycle may be ending. Instead, he believes the market is entering a so-called “supercycle” — a prolonged period of growth that most investors are not prepared for.

📣 Friends, if you want a video update on all the latest happenings in the Crypto world — drop a 💯. We may revive the Crypto Trends series on 📱. Thoughts: The market is very jittery right now. Don’t overuse leverage going into the Fed data drop. Ahead of the Fed’s decision they’ll shake out both longs and shorts — basically, liquidate in both directions. Classic! And don’t forget your SL / stop-losses. @PilotDAO 🔝 Let’s fly into WEB3 together!

🧬 SOLANA: a blockchain where chaos became a driving force A new episode is live on the channel!
