ROLLUP: Bitcoin’s Confidence Game | Bitmine’s ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps

So I've seen a lot of people saying like, oh, well, you know, this is how hyperliquid is doing now.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoin’s Confidence Game | Bitmine’s ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps

Just imagine how they're going to do when Bitcoin is at 100K plus.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoin’s Confidence Game | Bitmine’s ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps

Right.

And it may well be that actually people are pricing hyperliquid on revenues.

And if they're pricing hyperliquid on revenues, if the revenues don't, I mean, you know, it's not that likely that revenues are going to double just because the Bitcoin price goes up because so much of their revenue is coming from RWAs.

So if that is true, may not be true, TBD, let's see.

But if that is true, then what you may see is that actually the crypto beta really is actually sort of cordoned off to these assets that are more crypto native and the less crypto native assets that really have identifiable revenues and sort of growth engines that aren't tied to the fundamental Bitcoin price.

They just don't capture as much crypto beta on the way up either.

Did you just call a hype BTC top, Asif?

Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoin’s Confidence Game | Bitmine’s ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps

I did not.

Just pointing out that markets are complicated.

ROLLUP: Bitcoin’s Confidence Game | Bitmine’s ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps

I might be in the minority here.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoin’s Confidence Game | Bitmine’s ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps

I'm actually somewhat skeptical on the domestic perp story.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoin’s Confidence Game | Bitmine’s ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps

So a few things, I think.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoin’s Confidence Game | Bitmine’s ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps

One, retail's not here.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoin’s Confidence Game | Bitmine’s ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps

And when retail's not here, it's kind of like, okay, well, if retail's not trading this stuff, then what does it really matter that we offer perps domestically?

Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoin’s Confidence Game | Bitmine’s ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps

It's not like people are dying to find leveraged ways to trade crypto right now.

Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoin’s Confidence Game | Bitmine’s ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps

Yes, yes.
