Odaily News Polygon provides $300,000 in funding to the decentralized lending protocol Folks Finance to support its deployment of a cross-chain lending solution on the Polygon PoS network, aiming to integrate liquidity and simplify the multi-chain lending experience. According to the official introduction, Folks Finance adopts an innovative "hub-and-spoke" architecture, allowing users to pledge assets on one chain and seamlessly borrow on another chain. The solution is coordinated through three cross-chain communication protocols: Circle CCTP, Chainlink CCIP, and Wormhole, avoiding the asset security and operational complexity problems brought by traditional bridging. The funding will be issued in three installments, of which the first MATIC token worth $100,000 has been issued. Polygon said that after Aave reduced its deployment on the PoS chain, a gap appeared in the lending market, and this funding for Folks Finance is an important measure to fill this gap. Folks Finance also launched the "Folks Points" points system to incentivize user behavior within the protocol. In addition to Polygon, Folks Finance has previously received support from the Avalanche and Arbitrum Foundations. (Cointelegraph)

Odaily News According to LatePost, Meitu CEO Wu Xinhong said, "Previously, the company's blind diversification strategy was mostly led by him, not Cai Wensheng. I don't want to comment on Meitu's purchase of cryptocurrencies because it has become a thing of the past. Judging from the vote of the board of directors at the time, I also voted in favor of Meitu's purchase of cryptocurrencies. I just regarded it as an investment. Judging from the results, it is indeed a good return on investment. At the end of last year, Meitu sold all its cryptocurrencies and made 570 million yuan, and 80% of the profit was distributed as dividends to shareholders. However, if I could travel back in time, I might be more willing to use the money to find some good teams that can collaborate with our business. Sometimes, even though the performance has improved significantly, our stock price immediately fell when Bitcoin plummeted, but when Bitcoin rose, our stock price did not rise."
