🎤 Policy Heavyweights Join PayFi Summit

Huma has introduced instant withdrawals for PayFi liquidity, marking a significant infrastructure upgrade for DeFi users on Solana. **Key improvements:** - Deeper secondary liquidity pools - Enhanced safety for looping strategies on Jupiter and Kamino - Faster capital rotation across different strategies - Standard withdrawals remain free with ~8 hour average processing time The development comes as institutional adoption of stablecoins and PayFi infrastructure accelerates. Industry observers note that regulatory clarity is driving significant on-chain stablecoin liquidity growth, positioning infrastructure projects like Huma to benefit from these market shifts. **Technical specifications for Jupiter Lend integration:** - Maximum LTV: 85% - Liquidation threshold: 87% - Deposit cap: $10M *Note: Depositing locked $PST tokens into Jupiter Lend will unlock them and forfeit lockup-related rewards.*

PST now offers instant redemption to USDC directly within the app, marking a significant liquidity upgrade for the real-world yield token. **Key Features:** - Instant withdrawal functionality from PST to USDC - Dynamic fee structure based on available liquidity - Positions PST as one of Solana's most liquid real-world yield strategies This development builds on PST's strong first year performance, which saw: - Growth from $0 to $156M in total supply - Over 116,000 depositors - Consistent 8%+ USDC yield from real-world payment flows The instant withdrawal feature addresses a common friction point in DeFi yield products, allowing users to access their funds immediately rather than waiting for standard redemption periods. The dynamic fee model helps balance liquidity availability with user demand. PST captures yield from traditional payment processing flows, bringing institutional-grade returns to Solana users through Huma's PayFi network.

**Major payment networks are integrating stablecoins and blockchain infrastructure:** - Western Union launched USDPT on Solana through Anchorage - Visa expanded stablecoin settlement to five new networks, reaching $7B in volume with 50% quarterly growth - Meta now offers USDC creator payouts on Solana and Polygon **Significant capital is flowing into payment infrastructure:** - Kraken's parent company acquired Reap Global for $600M to expand card issuance and stablecoin payments - a16z raised $2.2B highlighting payments and on-chain finance as key focus areas - Haun Ventures raised $1B for financial infrastructure investments **Infrastructure developments:** - Rain Cards became a Mastercard Principal Member, bringing stablecoin cards to the global network - Huma selected Chainlink's CCIP for cross-chain yield product expansion - Fun raised $72M Series A to modernize global payments JPMorgan's 2026 Payments Outlook Report notes that liquidity will define the next generation of payments, while Tether launched a Developer Grants Program for AI and payments infrastructure.

A vulnerability in Huma's legacy v1 contracts on Polygon was exploited today, resulting in a loss of **101,400 USDC**. **Key Points:** - No user funds are at risk - PST token remains unaffected - The exploit only impacted legacy v1 contracts on Polygon - Huma's v2 system on Solana uses completely rewritten code and is not vulnerable to this issue - All v1 pools have been paused immediately - The team was already planning to sunset v1 pools before this incident The exploit represents a contained incident affecting only deprecated infrastructure that was already being phased out.

Huma and RockawayX convened industry leaders in Miami for The Capital Lunch, focusing on the infrastructure of digital finance. **Key Discussion Topics:** - Tokenized finance frameworks - Stablecoin credit rails - Institutional market structure **Notable Attendees:** The event brought together representatives from Jupiter, Bitwise, Fasanara, Fluid, Turtle, and other prominent digital asset firms. The gathering emphasized practical implementation over speculation, with builders and innovators exchanging insights on emerging financial infrastructure.
