HoudiniSwap Launches POINTLESS

HoudiniSwap, a pioneer in private cross-chain swaps, has announced the launch of POINTLESS, the first private incentive program in DeFi. Unlike traditional rewards schemes that rely on points, governance tokens, or complex unlock schedules, POINTLESS directly rewards users with real USDC generated from aggregator revenue.

The idea is as direct as it is disruptive: Privacy + Profit.

For years, DeFi protocols have poured billions into unsustainable incentive structures. Users farm rewards but quickly abandon platforms once the payouts dry up. HoudiniSwap’s POINTLESS changes this model, offering a fair and sustainable system where rewards are tied to actual trading activity rather than short-term token emissions.

With POINTLESS, every swap conducted on HoudiniSwap earns users a transparent share of the platform’s aggregator revenue, paid in USDC. No inflationary tokens, no disappearing “loyalty” points, just straightforward payouts.

In an industry where on-chain activity is increasingly exposed to surveillance and data harvesting, POINTLESS also stands apart as the first rewards program built specifically for private swaps. Privacy isn’t just an add-on; it is the foundation of how incentives are distributed.

POINTLESS also strengthens HoudiniSwap’s ecosystem through its native token, LOCK. Holders receive larger cuts of the revenue pool, aligning incentives for long-term participants while reinforcing the platform’s commitment to privacy-first, sustainable DeFi infrastructure.

The launch marks more than just another incentive mechanism; it signals a broader shift in the industry. HoudiniSwap is challenging the extractive, short-term strategies that have long dominated DeFi and charting a path toward a future where users are rewarded fairly, transparently, and privately.

By combining private cross-chain swaps with direct USDC rewards, POINTLESS sets a new standard for how incentive programs in DeFi should work, honest, sustainable, and built to last.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
