first_img Ostium co-founder: two-year agreement revenue of approximately 44.7 million USD, gross profit of 2.96 million USD

The co-founder of the real-world asset perpetual contract protocol Ostium, Kaledora, published a statement explaining the financial and revenue model of the protocol. She stated that approximately $44.7 million in total revenue over two years on Dune comes from four on-chain fees: $20.39 million in opening fees, $16.5 million in spreads, $4.75 million in rollover fees, and $3.35 million in liquidation fees.Of the aforementioned revenue, $22.14 million (49.6%) flows to the OLP treasury, $19.55 million (43.8%) is for liquidity costs, including $16.05 million for hedging and $3.49 million in hedging interest, leaving a gross profit of $2.96 million (6.6%). She noted that the total on-chain revenue does not include off-chain hedging costs, and prior to the liquidity upgrade in April, the protocol did not have the capability to monetize traffic; a security incident occurred just months after the system was upgraded.In terms of financing, Ostium raised $300,000 in 2022, $3.6 million in 2023, $4.1 million in 2024, and $19.4 million in 2025. The team is expected to expand from about 12 people in 2025 to 35 people by the second quarter of 2026, investing in costs related to data authorization, marketing, cloud infrastructure, auditing, and AI. She mentioned that the company has not reserved a balance sheet sufficient to cope with such incidents and that the silence has been too long. The next step will allow the remaining 345 OLP holders to share in business growth, with plans to announce the second phase recovery plan in the coming week.

first_img New York and Wyoming regulators sign agreement to coordinate cryptocurrency regulation

According to Cointelegraph, the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) and the Wyoming Division of Banking announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to coordinate the regulation of cryptocurrency companies operating in both jurisdictions, covering license approvals, inspections, and potential enforcement actions. This agreement applies to businesses already regulated in either state, as well as companies seeking approval in both locations simultaneously.Under the agreement, the regulatory agencies in both states will share analytical results and historical inspection data to streamline the application process, coordinate inspection timelines, and promote joint inspections of companies operating across state lines. For businesses already regulated in one of the states, holding an existing license or charter for at least three years, and not subject to enforcement actions, the agreement provides an expedited approval pathway, with the second regulatory agency striving to make a decision within six months.The MOU also establishes a mechanism for sharing regulatory reports, market trend data, and notifications of potential enforcement actions, with regulatory agencies regularly sharing investigative information and being able to take joint, coordinated, or separate enforcement actions. This move connects two states that have historically taken different approaches to cryptocurrency regulation: New York has maintained the BitLicense regime since 2015, while Wyoming has accommodated digital asset businesses through cryptocurrency-related laws, regulations, and specialized banking charters.
