Liquid staking tokens are generally horrible to own. Omnia π says Kinetiq built KNTQ to be the antithesis. "Liquid staking tokens are generally horrible to own. You stake, get extra yield, and there's no reason to be part of the protocol after. That's the consensus." "We took inspiration from Hyperliquid, very explicit rules for how value is distributed. 70% of our cut goes to programmatic KNTQ buybacks directly in the order books. No KPI conditions. $1,000 in TVL or $10 billion, doesn't matter." "Every trade on every front end, the HIP-3 DEX, the mobile app, all accruing to KNTQ. One unified system. That is the thesis."

DROPS E39: Worm - The permissionless truth machine Nass Diba studied quantum physics, worked at Facebook, then left to build in crypto. He's now building Worm - a permissionless prediction market on Solana with leverage. His thesis: prediction markets are the only mechanism that consistently surfaces truth, and they're about to matter more than ever. He grew up in Iran under a dictatorship. He watched state TV claim there was no inflation while the money in people's pockets shrank. That's not a metaphor for him - it's the problem he's building to solve.
