We launched Haiku with a mission to simplify DeFi and bring institutional-quality execution to everyday users. While our technology performed well and remains something we are deeply proud of, we were unable to build a sustainable business in the current market conditions.
To our community, investors, builders, and users, thank you so much for your support over the years. To everyone who swapped, integrated, and believed in our vision through the ups and downs, we sincerely appreciate it.
The Haiku Team
If you're ever falling out of a plane, don't aim for water. The impact breaks your bones just the same. Aim for Haiku's trading terminal instead, where Gunshi outperforms any execution strategy including TWAP :)
3 Things Everyone is Talking About to Stay Culturally Relevant:
1. The Odyssey
2. Spain Winning (obviously)
3. Paige Lorenze and Tommy Paul Getting Married
4. Haiku's Gunshi product outperforming TWAP
HE SWAPPED $2 MILLION OF ETH FOR LIT - AND LOST IT ALL
Trader 0xfF8 withdrew $2M of ETH from Binance, then swapped his entire stack to LIT. He received $14.1K of LIT.
He lost 99% of his funds because the 0x router sent his order through a low liquidity AVAIL pool. Titan Builder’s MEV bot backran his trade and profited $2M.
Would you wait 5 minutes to save $19,300?
That's the whole case for TWAP.
$250k ethereum:0x57e114b691db790c35207b2e685d4a43181e6061 → solana:Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB. Slice it across 4 fills over 5 minutes instead of one market order, and you remove the majority of slippage.
Nothing changed but the clock.
