Replying to @amitisinvesting
Amit, I am a U.S rates broker at a major brokerage firm in NYC. The 20yr auction wasn't horrible at all. It only tailed 1bp at auction. Dealers bought 17% of the auction vs an average of 15%. The 1bp tail obviously forced a lot of selling in the bond market but the main reason we are seeing selling is because of the uncertainties building up this year. The reason we are getting a 5% handle is because of the credit rating being lowered as well as the combination of long-term inflation expectations, and tariff uncertainty. So, the follow through caused a chain reaction of panic sellers. This isn't due to lack f demand.

IF YOU ARE WONDERING WHY STOCKS JUST ALL WENT DOWN AT ONCE
WE JUST HAD A HORRIBLE BOND AUCTION IN THE UNITED STATES FOR OUR 20-YEAR TREASURIES
Because of the lack of bidders…it caused the 20-year bond yield to surge to 5.1%.
Credit market is screaming for help right now.

Is it a sign that something GIGA will happen on @SeiNetwork soon? ✍️
Do they know something that we don't?
📰 And, if you're not aware yet, SEI originated in the United States, and SEI Development Foundation is now based in Manhattan!
So...

It might be a good time to look into SEI more, do you need my help? 👇

#Solana Ecosystem News: @RaydiumProtocol launching pump.fun competitor -> LaunchLab
The release of the platform, which is named LaunchLab, comes less than a month after news broke that the wildly popular Solana memecoin launchpad pump.fun was developing an AMM of its own, essentially severing an unofficial partnership it had struck with Raydium. LaunchLab will offer linear, exponential and logarithmic bonding curves that match demand and price for a token. It will also let third party UIs set their own fees.
Pump.fun tokens that reach a market cap of $69,000 have some liquidity deposited into a Raydium trading pool and burned. Pump.fun memecoins made up 41% of Raydium’s swap fee revenue over the past 30 days, according to Blockworks Research. Raydium’s native token crashed 25% in February as investors expect a major drawdown in Raydium revenue once pump.fun begins migrating tokens to pump’s in-house AMM.
Even after the flash crash, Raydium still holds some $168 million on its balance sheet, per Blockworks Research. The nice thing about having a big war chest is it allows a company to move quickly on things like suddenly building a pump.fun fork — though for what it’s worth, pump.fun’s in-house AMM had bounced around the Solana rumor mill for some time before the news leaked.
Anonymous Raydium core contributor Infra told me the protocol began developing LaunchLab “several months ago” but kept the project shelved because it “didn’t want teams to feel Raydium was competing with them directly.” That magnanimity appears to have dried up after pump.fun’s AMM plans emerged.
Raydium believes pump.fun found product-market fit partly because of Raydium’s infrastructure, Infra told me. But although they think Raydium’s liquidity pools could be a draw for users, Infra didn’t cast LaunchLab as a pump.fun killer.
“LaunchLab isn’t about replacing Pump or any other platform — it’s an alternative for teams who don’t want to develop their own programs from scratch, and for Pump users who prefer Raydium’s AMM v4 for pool migrations,” Infra wrote in a text message.
Besides offering novel bonding curves and flexible fees, LaunchLab will also support multiple quote tokens besides SOL and will integrate with Raydium’s liquidity provider locker, which lets issuers secure swap fees for tokens in perpetuity. LaunchLab is the first piece of a broader “suite of tools” that Raydium is pushing out for token creation, Infra said.
