Over the past two weeks, our team XDO has been working closely with @worldlibertyfi — and honestly, it’s been a real surprise for me. 最近两周，我们团队XDO开始和 @worldlibertyfi 密切合作，狠狠的教育了我！ Tbh, I had my own stereotypes at the beginning. Trump-backing, access to top-tier global resources — I assumed the team would be the type like: big vision, endless resources, everyone coming to them instead of the other way around. I mean, you can easily afford to be a “laid-back” team with this level of privilege and prestige.😂 说实话，刚开始接触的时候我是有刻板印象的。总统家族背景，全球顶流资源，我assume团体风格会是：愿景很大、资源很多，一定是所有的资源去找他们。可以猜想这种有顶级资源的美国团队有多么躺。 But after two weeks of working with them, I was genuinely impressed — even humbled. 但接触下来非常惊喜，甚至教育到我。 On nye, co-founder @ZachWitkoff was still handling interviews job. By Jan 2nd — when most people were still in holiday mode — their entire team was fully back in action. Every sync was well-prepared, execution was fast, and nothing was half-hearted. Even though many team members didn’t come from a Web3 background, everyone was actively and intensely learning. In every discussion, they consistently identified the single most critical key to success, made fast decisions, and mobilized the entire team to execute. From @ZachWitkoff & @zakfolkman founding-team-level market strategy decisions to execution, implementation, and even contract reviews — all of that can happen within a single day. 新年当天，Co-founder @ZachWitkoff 还在处理这面试的工作。1月2号，当大多数人还在休假模式的时候，他们已经全员到岗火力全开了。每次对接，准备充分，执行迅速，一点不含糊。虽然，很多人之前没有Web3背景，但是每个人在饥渴的学习Web3的知识。并且每次探讨中，总是可以找到决定事情成功的最核心的KEY，然后快速决策并全团队响应执行。是的，从大市场战略的Founding team决策到对其执行到落地执行包括审核合同，一天足以。 This made me reflect: why is a team with such a background working even harder than many startup founders? 这让我开始反思：为什么有这种背景的团队，反而比很多一般的创业者还拼？ My guess? Because the whole world is watching. If a normal project fails, you pivot and start over. But WLFI is different — with this kind of background, success is expected. That expectation pushes the founding team to focus on how to succeed even more. That pressure forces them to put in 200% effort to prove that what they build goes far beyond what their so-called “background” could ever hand them. 我猜的——因为全世界都在看。普通项目失败了，换个赛道重来就是。但 WLFI 不一样，顶着这种背景，成功变成了是应该的。所以，整个创始团队更聚焦在如何可以更加成功！这种压力，逼着他们必须用 200% 的努力去证明自己可以做的事情要远远超过他们“所谓的背景”可以给予的。 Another detail I noticed: their execution logic is extremely clear. It’s not the “we have resources, let’s just throw money at it” mindset. They are deliberately building long-term value step by step. They value every partner and every dollar — while also knowing how to turn those into weapons for rapid market capture. And when it comes to critical decisions, they don’t hesitate to invest heavily. You can imagine what this combination can ultimately become: top-tier resources + top-tier execution + a massive market = Massive future for @worldlibertyfi $USD1 By the way, this also validates a thesis I shared in my previous article (link below): in 2025, stablecoins are increasingly becoming the bridge to mainstream assets. Sustainability at the business level matters — and this is exactly the direction we’ve been betting on. 而且我观察到一个细节：他们团队做事的逻辑非常清晰，不是那种「有资源就随便造」的心态，而是真的在一步步构建长期价值。珍惜每一个合作伙伴，珍惜每一分钱，但是同时这些也可以成为快速抢占市场的武器。对于关键事情上，丝毫不吝惜。我们可以想象这种组合——顶级资源 + 顶级执行力 + 超级大的市场 WLFI USD1可以成为什么样最终形态。顺便说一句，也验证了我在之前一篇长文里的思考，今年稳定币成为连接主流资产的趋势越来越明显了。业务本身的可持续性。这也是我们一直在押注的方向。 So YEP! My view on WLFI has completely changed. This is a team that genuinely takes execution seriously, and have the power to make all dreams come true. 所以我现在对 WLFI 的看法彻底改变了。至少从合作体验来说，这是一个认真做事并且有实现造梦能力的团队。 If people with backgrounds are working this hard, what excuse do those without one have to be laid-back?? 「Don't make excuses for not being where you want to be. It usually comes down to not trying hard enough, or focusing on the wrong things.」 「Jiayi never used to create anxiety. But from now on, anxiety and self-reflection start with Jiayi.」 有背景的人都在拼命，没背景的凭什么躺平？ 「不要给自己的不够优秀找借口。大多数就是自己不够努力，或者努力方向不对！」 「Jiayi之前不制造焦虑。但是从现在开始，焦虑和反思从Jiayi开始。」 Side note: after deeply engaging with the founding team, I started allocating heavily into $ALTS (already 100% in profit so far) and $WLFI. I’m happy to say that so far, the results have been very encouraging. 题外话： 正式因为深度的接触了创始团队后。我开始重仓WLFI的DAT股票 $ALTS (且翻倍了）和 $WLFI。很开心，目前为止，让我看到了好的结果。 LONG Crypto 🚀 LONG Stablecoin 🚀 LONG Myself

机器人圈也被 AI 的 scaling 卷麻了 截图是 ICRA 2026 一个数据统计，感觉蛮有意思的，分享一下。比如论文关键词的分布，中美加起来占一半以上的江山。 投稿 4947 篇，接收 1882 篇，接收率 38.04%。2021 年时候投稿量大概 4000 篇左右，机器人圈也在被 AI 的 scaling 卷麻。 Hot topics 是 Manipulation、Planning、Mapping/Perception 3D，SLAM/Localization，Object Detection/ Tracking。 author keyword top 是：Deep Learning for Visual Perception、Reinforcement Learning、Motion and Path Planning、Imitation Learning。 btw，这个数据不是 ICRA 官方做的，是韩国 DGIST 一个助理教授 Giseop Kim 做的，现在vibecoding一个东西变得无比容易。just do it… 想起来去年还写过一场 ICRA 2025 的 keynote 辩论，当时议题是“Data will solve robotics: True or false？” 转眼一年过去了……大家觉得这一年机器人领域的进展快吗？现在关于Data will solve robotics的争论，大家觉得有答案了吗🐶

早上起来以为我看错了，Kraken 这么大个所谓的合规 CEX 竟然堂而皇之的上了诈骗项目 @intodotspace ，瞬间对 Kraken 一点好感都没了，只觉得恶心🤮。 这上币组是被屎还是给的一点上币费蒙蔽了眼睛？连最基本的调研都不做的吗？这垃圾玩意儿诈骗了那么多打新的人，到现在一分钱没退一个币没发，怎么通过“合规”的？ 妈的如果给点钱💰就什么狗屎都能上，就别把自己标榜成白莲花好吗？本来大家踩了 Space 这坨狗屎算倒霉了，现在Kraken 还要把狗屎捡起来塞大家嘴里。 大清早的真把我恶心坏了。 强烈建议 Kraken 团队调查一下自己的listing 团队是否拿了脏钱，如果没拿那他们真的可以被 fire 掉了! Woke up this morning thinking I was seeing things — Kraken, this supposedly "compliant" major CEX, actually listed a straight-up scam project @intodotspace. Lost every bit of respect I had for them instantly. Just disgusting 🤮 Did their listing team get paid in shit, or did someone slip them a little listing fee to blind them completely? Can't even do the most basic due diligence? This garbage project scammed so many people in their public sale, hasn't refunded a single cent or delivered a single token — and somehow it passes their "compliance" review? If all it takes is a little money 💰 to get any piece of crap listed, then stop pretending you're some virtuous, white-glove exchange. People already stepped in the Space turd and got burned — now Kraken goes and picks that turd back up and shoves it in everyone's mouth. Ruined my whole morning. Absolutely disgusting.🤢🤢🤢🤢 Strongly urge the @krakenfx team to investigate whether their listing team took dirty money. And if they somehow didn't — they should be fired anyway. This listing is seriously damaging your CEX's reputation and brand, and driving users away.

Just hit a stand-up show! The crowd laughed so hard at my bit about confusing coffee orders, I swear half the room ordered lattes mid-set. （刚结束一场脱口秀演出！我那关于搞混咖啡订单的段子让全场笑到一半人演出中途都点了拿铁。）
