I built a DeFi hedge fund in 3 minutes.
Lend on @aave → borrow → deposit into @Morpho vaults
Route yield from a Yarn vault into $XAUT Tokenized Gold + $POL native staking
Route yield from Euler USDT into $MSFT $NVDA and $SpaceX
Configure how much goes into each market.
Hit publish.
Others can copy it.
You earn performance fees.
They earn based on your knowledge, you manage the strategy.
This is what composable finance looks like.

It’s actually crazy how X makes you believe the entire world is falling apart every single day.
Another war, another crisis, another headline about how we’re all fucked.
Then you go outside and realize everyone is just living their normal lives, going to work, eating at restaurants and enjoying themselves.
Sometimes you just need to close X, stop consuming all this fear and go enjoy your life. The algorithm makes you believe that everything is negative and bad.

trade[XYZ] and ICE, owner of the New York Stock Exchange, are joining forces to bring 24/7 perpetual futures on Hyperliquid to the United States.
In just over a year, our markets on Hyperliquid have surpassed $650 billion in volume. They provide continuous price discovery for stocks, indices, and commodities, and have become trusted reference points for retail and institutions alike when traditional markets are closed. Much of the world trades them. Until now, Americans could only watch.
We intend to change that. Subject to CFTC approval, trade[XYZ] and ICE plan to establish a new, dedicated U.S. market, with novel exchange and clearing infrastructure built on Hyperliquid. Planned contracts span equities, indices, commodities, FX, and crypto, with access through participating brokers and platforms. We’ll share more on products, eligibility, and timing as approvals progress.
ICE brings more than 25 years of experience operating regulated markets, clearing, and managing risk. trade[XYZ] brings the product development, market design, and technology behind the most liquid and robust markets on Hyperliquid.
Innovation and the protections of U.S. regulation shouldn’t be a trade-off. Together, we plan to prove it.
ICE is making a strategic investment in trade[XYZ] and joins us in building towards the future of Hyperliquid. A small group of market luminaries is joining as well, beginning with Stan Druckenmiller. For more than four decades, few investors have anticipated the great turns in markets as often as Stan. We’re proud to have him with us for the next one.
We’re building the U.S. market in parallel with our existing HIP-3 markets, which we’ll continue to expand and innovate on. We expect both to flourish. They each have a long road map ahead, from new asset classes to new ways to trade them.
To the Hyperliquid community, whether you were here before us or came because of us, thank you. You took a chance on new markets and you made them matter. You’ll forever be a part of this story.
Anything. Anytime. On ICE[XYZ].
Aave v4 on @base currently pays ~3% in rewards for lending tokenized stocks, and you can borrow against them as collateral. The rewards are paid in USDC, so nothing compounds on its own.
Here’s a demo of a strategy that lends $TSLA and $AAPL on @aave, then compounds the USDC rewards back into both stocks, split evenly, once a month.
Still experimenting with this, this is a temporary campaign so it will probably end soon.
Set your own buy rules to make strategies smarter.
- earnings beat expectations by 10%+
- price drops below your level
- RSI hits X
- volume jumps by Y%
- price touches the 200 MA
It buys only when your conditions hit.
Built on Base.

I built a DeFi fund in 2 minutes.
Lend base:0xcbb7c0000ab88b473b1f5afd9ef808440eed33bf on @aave, borrow $USDC, buy $MSTR
Deposit $MXNB in @Morpho at 10% APY
Deposit $USDC in @eulerfinance at 6.89% APY
The interest buys $SPCX and $TSLA, only when my conditions hit (earnings report, price, technicals).
Set how much goes where.
Interest routes itself, positions rebalance automatically.
Monitored 24/7, with earnings, technicals and analyst ratings for every stock.
Now plug this into an AI agent.
Anyone can build DeFi strategies now, across multiple vaults, lending pools, crypto or stocks.
I built this one in 1 minute, just by describing it in plain English.
Half the balance buys $NVDA, $MSFT, $GOOGL and $META
The other half is lent in the @0xfluid USDC Lending Vault
The interest is split equally to buy $BTC, $ETH, $SPCX and $MSTR
Tweak it however you like, by hand or with the AI.
Create it, fund it, and start earning.
It rebalances automatically.
It reinvests automatically.
It monitors APY and risk for you.
Then publish it. Others can copy your strategy, and you earn a management fee for running the allocation.
Built on @base, @0xfluid, @Morpho and @EnsoBuild.
Going to try this, looks awesome.

paper devs
papertrade got exploited for $1.28M by 0x2025137a136bea7446deba681cbfc7cf1970840e within just 8 hours of being live.
here is the on-chain breakdown of how a clever attacker with more than $13M all time PnL and $14B volume on hyperliquid exploited @papertrade_xyz
how it works: papertrade prices every trade off hyperliquid's ETH price at that exact second. so if you can move hyperliquid's price for a few seconds, papertrade pays you for it.
that's exactly what 0x2025.. did, manipulating hyperliquid's price to move their papertrade positions into profit.
22:01 opens $200M of longs on papertrade
22:01 buys 6,055 ETH on hyperliquid, price goes up $3
22:03 closes the longs → +$168k
22:03 flips to $160M of shorts
22:03 sells 5,260 ETH on hyperliquid, price drops $3
22:04 closes the shorts → +$97k
22:04 flips long again
the exploiter repeats this pattern over and over: long on papertrade, pump the price on hyperliquid, close the longs and open shorts on papertrade, dump the ETH back on hyperliquid, close the shorts.
they won 97% of their trades
296 wins out of 305 trades
typical hold: 98 seconds
total pnl: $1.73M
then it went wrong:
23:13 opens 30 shorts on papertrade, $297M at 2507.35
23:13 sells ~6,600 ETH on hyperliquid, price drops to 2504.4
same move as before. but this time the close never goes through. the short is stuck
02:31 ETH hits 2509.95. all 30 shorts liquidated, -$450k
leaving them with $1.28m of profit.
my guess is the team blocked 0x2025's closes to stop the attack. this is a temporary fix, the underlying oracle of papertrade is still identical, and vulnerable to the exact same manipulation which anyone could re-create from a fresh wallet.
it seems papertrade needs to upgrade their oracle system from using the BBO to possibly using hyperliquid's official oracle system which is less subject to manipulation as it uses a combination of exchange's price feeds.

Most of the world banks are looking into tokenization now, it's a matter of time.
hot take: crypto and fintech are basically the same industry now.
stablecoins and blockchain rails ARE a financial technology.
crypto native companies are now launching cards, bank accounts, other financial products, while traditional fintechs are integrating wallets, stablecoins and blockchain rails at an unprecedented rate.
we’re watching both industries attack the same problems from opposite directions until they eventually meet in the middle.
crypto companies are becoming fintechs and fintechs are becoming crypto companies.

A timelock is a mandatory waiting period between proposing certain changes to a vault and being able to execute them.
A shorter timelock gives a vault's guardian less time to stop changes that could put depositors' funds at risk.
For example, a MetaMorpho vault could raise the limit on how much it can supply to a higher-risk lending market. That would allow more depositor capital to be exposed to that market. If the vault increases its allocation and the market suffers losses, depositors can bear those losses.
The timelock forces the proposed limit increase to wait before it can take effect. During that wait, the guardian can cancel it and depositors can assess whether to stay. Shortening the delay reduces the time available to react to future proposals, including harmful ones submitted through a compromised admin account.
Zyfai monitors proposed timelock reductions because the time available to respond is part of the protection behind positions. A shorter delay changes those risk conditions.
Our risk monitoring layer flags a reduction as soon as it's proposed. The reduction itself must wait through the current timelock, giving our risk engine time to reassess exposure while the original safeguards are still in place.
As you can see, many of the risks behind a DeFi position are easy to overlook. Zyfai monitors changes like these and assesses how they affect your capital, so you don't have to track every vault parameter yourself.
