【Crypto World】Recently, there is a new concept in the DeFi circle called Yield Basis (YB), developed by the founder of a well-known DEX. What makes this mechanism special? It uses leverage as a tool to tackle the most troublesome issue for AMMs: impermanent loss.
Currently, YB has integrated funds from the three major DEX pools in the BTC ecosystem, with a total market size exceeding $400 million. For those holding wrapped BTC, providing liquidity in these pools can earn yields. Historical data shows that the seven-day average return fluctuates between 4% and 40%, which is quite attractive.
It is worth noting that the protocol has recently enabled a fee switching feature. This gives LPs two options: one is to directly collect trading fees denominated in BTC, and the other is to stake YB to generate yields. Each mode has its advantages and disadvantages, depending on your market outlook.
YB's ambitions are not small — it is not just targeting BTC.

[Chain News] South Korea's Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) has taken strong action at the end of the year. Virtual asset service provider Korbit was fined 27.3 billion KRW (approximately $208 million) for violating the "Specific Financial Information Act," and warnings and disciplinary actions were issued to the company's representatives and reporting officers.
Where is the problem? There are mainly two issues: first, inadequate enforcement of customer identification (KYC) and transaction restriction obligations, with a total of 22,000 violations; second, having conducted transactions with 19 unregistered overseas virtual asset service providers. Both issues directly hit the core of AML (Anti-Money Laundering) compliance.
The FIU's stance is very clear—this is not a passing trend, and they will continue to strengthen AML compliance supervision in the virtual asset industry. This serves as a warning to all platforms operating in South Korea: KYC verification, counterparty review, and other basic tasks cannot be sloppy. Otherwise, they face not only hefty fines but also management accountability. The compliance gate for the virtual asset industry

【Crypto World】Recently, an interesting project called PepeNode has been discovered, which combines the logic of GameFi and meme tokens, but with a completely different gameplay.
It does not follow the early "play-to-earn" game model where users earn and then leave. Instead, it features a "mining for profit" system, focusing not on repetitive actions but on how to manage and optimize efficiency—essentially, long-term returns depend on your strategies and decisions.
The project team has imposed restrictions on token issuance and designed an in-game destruction mechanism linked to upgrades. This combination directly addresses a core issue: how to control selling pressure and maintain a stable economic system.
Interestingly, well-known figure in the crypto space, Michael Wrubel, also favors this project and considers it a high-potential asset. Currently, the project is in the pre-sale stage, with a token price of $0.0012161, and will be listed later.
