Bybit CEO Ben: Why We Didn't Renew the F1 Sponsorship In an April 23 interview with When Shift Happens, Bybit CEO Ben Zhou Ben Zhou explained why the company did not renew its Red Bull F1 sponsorship. He said the commercial value of F1 sponsorship had been declining year by year, while the cost of activating all the sponsorship rights kept rising. Maintaining the execution team alone could cost far more than the sponsorship fee, making a renewal unlikely to break even. Zhou also noted that the same guests were often invited every year, which created "relationship management" issues and made some people expect to be invited. Bybit is now looking for a branding opportunity with better value.

Jeff on how he views Hyperliquid relative to CEXs: > The House of All Finance is meant to be inclusive, not a vampire attack on existing businesses > Many CEXs view Hyperliquid as a competitor taking market share, he thinks that’s the wrong way to look at it > Hyperliquid is better viewed as a liquidity layer that exchanges and other financial platforms can plug in, similar to what VALR has done > Instead of a battle between CEXs and DEXs, Jeff sees a collaborative future where Hyperliquid serves as core infrastructure for finance

Hyperliquid founder Jeff: The real risk isn't a black swan,it's marginalization. Jeff Yan stated in an interview at TOKEN2049 Singapore 2025 on October 14th, Hyperliquid worries more about a "slow decline" than a black swan event. If Hyperliquid fails,it will likely not be because of the protocol itself,but because it didn't create something valuable for the world. He added that DeFi still has a long road ahead: it should reduce reliance on off chain assumptions (such as price or asset backing) and refocus on on chain consistency and long term building. Whether the existing financial system will ultimately take it seriously remains to be seen. Source：

Everyone’s talking about $HYPE And now you’re thinking about getting into perps for the first time. Kook says: “My best advice? Don’t do it.” “By the stats, 97% of accounts on Hyperliquid are red. Trading perps with leverage is extremely hard.” Instead of trying to beat the market with leverage, he prefers to “own the casino, not play in it.” “My Hyperliquid exposure is buy the token and stake it.” That doesn’t mean he avoids the platform entirely. He says he still trades with a small “joke account” because “You can trade everything! This stuff is fun.” If you insist on trying perps: “Treat it like gambling, set aside a little gambling account, and start to have some fun.” Limit yourself so you don’t waste a giant bag of money on tuition. Because the real risk isn’t only losing money. It’s what happens after a few wins: “You’ll get addicted to it and you’ll want to put more size into it.” The takeaway? - most traders lose - leverage is unforgiving - the best play for beginners is spot exposure + staking

Jeff Yan: The "get-rich-quick" culture has overshadowed Web3's true potential On February 19, Hyperliquid founder Jeff Yan said in an interview with the When Shift Happens channel that there is a disconnect in the crypto industry between its vision and its builders. Many talented individuals are discouraged by the industry's negative reputation, leaving Web3 filled with participants seeking quick profits rather than long-term product development. He believes this has obscured the industry's true potential. To change this, he argued that projects should follow Hyperliquid's approach-ignoring trends and building what they truly believe is right. By leading through example and staying grounded, they can attract more builders into DeFi and the broader crypto ecosystem. Source：

Russia is determined to test European borders and could turn a "frosty peace" in Europe into a "hot confrontation", Martin Jäger, head of the Germany's BND intelligence service, said. During a public briefing, Martin Jaeger said that Moscow believes it has a realistic chance of expanding its sphere of influence westward and making Europe "dependent on Russia." "To achieve this goal, Russia will not hesitate, if necessary, to engage in a direct military confrontation with NATO," Jäger said. He added that Germany cannot afford to show leniency and assume that a possible Russian attack "will not come until 2029 at the earliest," because they are already under fire.

Russia is determined to test European borders and could turn a "frosty peace" in Europe into a "hot confrontation", Martin Jäger, head of the Germany's BND intelligence service, said. During a public briefing, Martin Jaeger said that Moscow believes it has a realistic chance of expanding its sphere of influence westward and making Europe "dependent on Russia." "To achieve this goal, Russia will not hesitate, if necessary, to engage in a direct military confrontation with NATO," Jäger said. He added that Germany cannot afford to show leniency and assume that a possible Russian attack "will not come until 2029 at the earliest," because they are already under fire.

Exxon Mobil CEO Darren Woods said that in considering a potential return to Venezuela, the company applies its long-term lens, with investments that must be “decades-deep” and deliver a “win-win-win” for Exxon, the government, and the population. But citing Exxon’s history in Venezuela where its assets were seized twice, and the country’s current legal and commercial framework, Woods said Exxon cannot determine that its presence would be a “win” for the company and its shareholders. Under current conditions, he said, Venezuela is “uninvestable.” He said he could not offer a view at this time on whether Exxon’s return would benefit the Venezuelan people or the government, but stressed that “it has to be a win for the people. We have to be wanted there,” adding that those conditions are necessary for stable, long-term investment. He said Venezuela would need major changes to its hydrocarbon laws and durable investment protections, though he added that he was “confident” that with cooperation between the current U.S. administration and Venezuelan authorities, such changes are attainable. In the near term, Exxon plans to deploy a technical team within weeks to assess the state of the industry and explore how to help restart oil production.

Rasmr reveals how a top VC executive made him realize Hyperliquid is the infrastructure for the future of finance "I was hanging with a guy who is high up at one of the biggest VCs in the world. I was like, 'Why are you buying SpaceX? Their revenue is ass. Their multiple is insane. They're not even profitable'" "He's like, 'Profitable? You think we invest in companies because they're profitable? It's core infrastructure for the future of the world. The data centers, the Starlink, the space travel, the mining. It's going to be important in the future of the world'" "I was like, 'My brain has been poisoned by crypto nerds talking about P/E ratios and multiples. You think I care about HYPE because it's profitable? You think that's why I bought Hyperliquid? No. I bought Hyperliquid because it is core infrastructure for the future of finance, the future of the world'. Hyperliquid is the SpaceX of finance"
