Of the belief that Venice is early in the phase that matters most for $VVV token holders. The demand has been found, as the on-chain record makes clear. What has not yet happened is the conversion of that demand into the margin that follows from owning compute, and the burn that follows from the margin. That conversion is only now beginning, and it will unfold over the next two years. The company was seeded by its founders and raised a $65 million Series A in July at a valuation above $1 billion. A lead investor at that valuation is likely underwriting a 5 to 7x outcome, hoping for a 10x, which brackets the base-to-bull range in the article. The returns on that capital are only now beginning to take shape, as the first wave of GPU clusters is deployed and the shift from rented to owned compute begins to show in the cost structure. Two signals will validate the thesis: an announcement of additional clusters by roughly mid-2027, and an expansion of the programmatic burn rules, which would convert margin improvement into a fixed commitment to token holders rather than a monthly discretionary decision. Management has already alluded to the latter as a strong possibilty. Thus far, management has seemingly had a crystal ball on predicting the industry's major shifts correctly and early: inference over training, privacy as a product, open weights as the cost frontier. Owning the hardware is the step that turns that positioning into margin.

This is one of the product releases you glance over and don't take seriously but you should. Earn+ will be one of the killer features for Ethena Pay that is almost impossible to compete with for dollar savings at scale. I'd hope I'm within the top ~5% of DeFi power users, but I don't even spend the time and energy to optimize DeFi loops across multiple chains and lending markets which requires 24/7 attention. This is a one-click access point to optimized levered USDe rewards with the capability to operate cross chain from a single vault with no management of debt positions required at all. This is the highest unincentivized reward rate on dollars at multi-billion scale with a simple one-click user experience that has averaged ~10-15% APY even during the bear market, and much higher in the bull market. Available exclusively on Ethena Pay 🌍.
Introducing Earn+: up to 12% rewards on your dollars in a single click. Available exclusively on @EthenaPay.

$VVV burns are increasing about ~1% a day $9,000 daily $VVV burn on July 17th $24,150 daily $VVV burn on October 25th At this rate, January will start with $45,000 of daily $VVV burns, and end with $62,000 daily $VVV burn Lower that assumption by 33%, and you get $300,000 daily $VVV burn in December 2027
