one of the most interesting memecoins right now is solana:98kfF7rmsg1QDUEoCqNE7g7M1FdrTt92TEp2CLzypump here’s the idea behind @UsePaid UsePaid collects creator fees from memecoins and: > sends 80% to a designated X account via X Money > uses 20% to buy solana:98kfF7rmsg1QDUEoCqNE7g7M1FdrTt92TEp2CLzypump on the market and burn it the whole bet is on increased protocol usage and buybacks & burns started at a $3K MC, reached $20M in less than a day, and hit a new ATH today: ~$52M the bet here is that UsePaid will become the go-to for creator fees in memecoins as usual, X is divided into two worlds on one side, the US, getting richer, and on the other, everyone else left out maybe I should cross the border into Mexico and ask for asylum?

kaito started moving aggressively days before the x partnership announcement cashcat did same days before the rh listing but we are going to pretend it’s in the chart yunno, no insider involvement max props to everyone who made money off them btw, i wish i did

Nikita Bier leaving X the same week Kaito announces a new InfoFi season. I don't believe in coincidences

When will those companies/chains understand that retails dont care about the tech but just want a way to make money Memes are the easiest way to onboard people and create FOMO > fun to see a chart going up and simple to understand > super shareable on social media > easy entry

be like Brian Armstrong; - get caught for repping a fake cryptopunk NFT - people launch a token in your name - get a lot of supply - “take profit” after token runs to millions - buy a real cryptopunk NFT worth $200k chart dumps, diabolical cook and absolutely cinema https://t.co/5mQUc02F7a

In hindsight people really did InfoFi dirty. Random five- to six-figure airdrops with transparent leaderboards, you basically knew that if you lock in you can farm good rewards. Nowadays that's gone and the same people that criticized InfoFi are tweeting about the Ansem coin for a fraction of (not even guaranteed) rewards. Towards the late stage of InfoFi the platforms fumbled and the projects themselves got worse but the few good drops (Berachain, Anime, most recently Solstice) made it all worth it imo

Most people don’t realize that NFTs have gone back to the prices they were at six months ago. Many might say May was the top for NFTs but I see this price action as an opportunity to buy what I’ve always wanted to own. You can literally buy CryptoPunks for $50K, BAYC for $15K, Hypurr for $17K, Pudgy Penguins for $7K and many others at even lower prices. For some, this might be the top or you might say NFTs are dead. But personally, I see this as an opportunity to diversify my holdings. We’ve had four years of a downtrend for JPEGs. Now imagine the upside potential. All it takes is one catalyst and when that catalyst arrives, most of you won’t be positioned for it. Art collections: CryptoPunks, Beeple, Grifters, Mask of Luci, Chromie Squiggle, Fidenza and many more. OG collections: BAYC, Pudgy Penguins, Hypurr, Doodles, Chimpers, Kodas and Azuki. Recently launched collections: Normies, The Del Mundos, NPC, GLiFS and a few more. You can buy ETH at a discount and NFTs at a massive discount. As they say, what is dead may never die. Accumulate.

May was overall a good month for me. Made $25k USD in profit from the MegaETH ICO. I lost some money farming and trading perps, but I'm still comfortably in the green. Plus the Terminal airdrop hasn't been distributed yet. I got a 1.8x return on my Solstice ICO allocation which was solid. I still have around $10k USD worth of vested airdrop tokens to receive. I also doubled down on Polymarket and made several hundred dollars in liquidity rewards. I think I'm well positioned there if the airdrop should really be close. Overall, more Ws than Ls, onwards

Quick recap on Solstice since launch, since there's been a lot of controversy and information flying around. Personally, the launch cooked for me. For ICO investors, it was almost a 2x from the ICO price, which is a rare W these days. The price is also holding above a $200M USD FDV, which is solid given the current market environment. That said, a couple of things were communicated poorly. The main one was obviously the vesting, which was announced far too late, shortly before TGE. That definitely should've been communicated more clearly. And while I'm sure it sucks for people with big allocations, I don't think this will turn into one of those -99% charts. So if you did well on the allocation, you probably just need some patience. Then there's the market maker situation. Again, not communicated great, but to me it looks like they dumped tokens on Binance Alpha and have been buying them back on spot since then. Hard to be too mad about that, but mass selling on day 1 is obviously not a good look either. Overall, I would still call it one of the better TGEs we've had this year. Communication wasn't perfect, but given the circumstances, I think they handled it reasonably well. FUD is a little bit overblown given the chart is holding up well and is still +60% from launch

Solstice TGE today. I have a solid ICO and airdrop allocation, hoping it will cook. SLX gonna have utility in the Solstice ecosystem when it comes to governance, priority access to new vaults and features, plus better card borrowing terms and more. USX TVL is sitting above $400M USD, making it a top 25 stablecoin currently

Big year for my partners at OpenLedger. Their campaigns, then TGE a few months ago, mainnet launch (giving people economic upside in the knowledge they create), and now on the way to building the broader vision, the AI blockchain. They are also one of the leaders in buybacks and a few weeks ago the Korean Public Company Netmarble made a strategic investment in their token. Excited to see them cook in 2026

Cool new product by the friends at Overtake. Stakehouse unifies different participation metrics (staking, trading, referrals etc), giving a more holistic view of involvement vs just passive holding. In practice that means disproportionately better outcomes for long-term stakers and ecosystem participants. Staked my $TAKE with max tier and will try to cook on ref and volume multipliers as well

Vooi's Season 1 points campaign concluded this week and will be key for their airdrop at TGE. Season 2 now started with 5% supply across 25 epochs for perps and spot trading. Perps are available across all major platforms (Hyperliquid, Lighter, Aster etc) so you can double dip into different points programs. And Vooi is redistributing all airdrop allocations they receive from these apps back to traders. Total volume is now above $26B USD and excited to see how it evolves in Season 2. Depending on TGE performance this could continue be a juicy points program, I farmed Season 1 pretty heavily here

My partners at OpenLedger are entering their next buyback cycle, adding another 5M $OPEN to their buybacks. That brings the total amount close to 5% of the supply, all driven by enterprise revenue. Percentage-wise one of the strongest buybacks programs we've seen this year, while the market is bearish they are doubling down

Even in this market, Vooi's Legion round closed with a 26x oversubscription this weekend. I maxxed out the individual cap myself, ended up getting fully filled (nice). As a perp aggregator Vooi has an actual useful product with a good UI, and I found myself using it more and more. Tokenomics for $VOOI dropped today as well. Will continue points acquisition on the platform (last two weeks been very solid in that regard) and will try to get my mindshare up on Cookie, @vooi_io airdrop registration closes in three days btw

Ladies and gentlemen, let me present to you to the Alphabot $BOOST chart. They have delayed the community airdrop several times, most recently when the token was trading at more than $0.15 USD. Since then, it's down -80%, and the airdrop is still half a month away (unless they postpone it again). Strong support at zero

Vooi has integrated Aster into their platform today. In other words you can now farm both $VOOI and $ASTER simultaneously. Vooi itself has a lot of momentum right now, $18.6B USD cumulative volume so far and close to 150k active wallets. Mindshare is also up. TLDR: Vooi simplifies spot and perps trading, gasless and with one-click trades across more than 200 markets. Both Aster and Vooi are backed by YZi Labs (the famous Binance affiliate). This is a cool opportunity to double-dip into both perps ecosystems while the points programs still run, @vooi_io's program will end early December. Happy to be partnered with them

Big news from the Uniswap ecosystem yesterday. They are generating annualized fees of $2.7B USD, with 17% of protocol fees now being used for buybacks, which equates to $38M USD worth of buybacks per month. $UNI was up more than 40% on the news. This is also very bullish for Pumpfun and Meteora, which also have large buyback programs. My partners at Meterota generate annualized fees of $1.2B USD, which, with the same structure, equates to monthly buybacks of more than $17M USD. I think the news here is a very bullish signal for DeFi in general, and Meteora could be one of the big beneficiaries on the Solana side. Buyback season

You have to understand the lore here Scenario 1 <> Wale gets full allo <> Wale is happy <> Wale goes for vacation <> Alt season begins Scenario 2 <> Wale doesn’t get enough allo <> Wale is angry <> Wale stays at his basement <> Bear market begins Choose wisely

Open Ledger just announced their next buyback milestone which will be 4,000,000 $OPEN tokens (or 0.4% of the total supply). That's on top of the 38M tokens (3.8%) already bought back over the last few weeks. Next updates include early investor buybacks and community voting for holders, both big moves for their long-term growth. $OPEN is up 16% in the last 7 days, as always happy to partner with them to bring some awareness to this

Since yesterday's TGE $MET has been holding up pretty well with 48% float on day 1. The claims also went smoothly, no shenanigans which is rare these days lol and with full unlock. Looking forward to seeing the team cooking over the next few months. I'm still holding my entire allocation, think there is still some room to run here compared to other ecosystems

Pudgy's $PENGU recovered to ATH market cap, $DOOD recovered to ATH, I think $ANIME and $MEME could be next. Both have strong distribution even outside of crypto (Animecoin with animecom, Memecoin with 9GAG & Meme Strategy) and feel undervalued compared to similar ecosystems atm. I still have a bag in all four

Big news, Caldera is partnering with Ethena. Ethena is a DeFi protocol on Ethereum that's behind USDe, the third biggest stablecoin with a TVL of $12B USD. They bring their stablecoin-as-a-service stack to Caldera, meaning every Caldera rollup can launch stablecoins from day one with instant liquidity. Partnered with Caldera to bring some awareness to this

My partners at OpenLedger just bought back an additional 0.4% of the total $OPEN supply with their enterprise revenue. Bringing the total buyback amount to 3.7% of the supply, pretty wild https://t.co/mZZiapsnqR

OpenLedger announced their next partnership with RedStone yesterday. RedStone is a blockchain oracle network, in other words it supplies external data into blockchains and smart contracts. Could bring the OpenLedger ecosystem some more options for integrations between AI models and data, team is absolutely crushing it with their partnerships lately. Partnered with OpenLedger to bring some awareness to this

I covered the Doodles x Universal partnership last week. Looks like we might get something for Halloween or at least a few teasers leading up to it. As I said last week this is massive for Doodles as a brand but also for Web3 IP in general

All these coins get insane distribution through their activities and partnerships: $PENGU with tens of billions of GIF views across all platforms and social media. $REKT with their drinks. $MEME with 9GAG, tens of millions of monthly visitiors and millions of views on Instagram. $DOOD with their partnerships and media, big Universal announcement yesterday. $ANIME with animecom LIVE, first session had thousands of people joining and watching a brand-new anime episode live. Billions will come across them

Wow looks like we get a new Hollywood-style Doodles movie soon, huge partnership

Kaito Capital Launchpad is really cooking. All launches profitable so far and the ones that are still pending have big potential. Everlyn round did a 1.4x today (they raised at $250M USD, now FDV is $340M USD). Fully unlocked at TGE. Hana Network was also profitable. And plenty of other high profile launches coming up, some of which had priority for Kaito ecosystem participants

OpenLedger just announced a buyback program for their token. Just in time for their airdrop from Kaito. They will use enterprise revenue to buy back $OPEN on the open market. Current 24h trading volume is at $230M USD, ATH was $1.79B USD. Buybacks are still one of the few initiatives teams can take that has a real impact on the token as we've seen in a couple other ecosystems. Partnered with @OpenledgerHQ to bring some awareness to this

Another great clip from brother Jack. Crypto-native IPs are becoming absolute content powerhouses. Look at videos, reels, GIFs etc, they're already dominating. I often search for GIFs, and the first one suggested comes from a crypto-related IP. Pudgy Penguins, Doodles, Azuki, Chimpers etc. That's profileration

The most important indicator of whether I want to bet on a project has always been the founders who lead it, and that won't change: Azuki – Zagabond was part of the founding team of 0x, one of the early DeFi protocols. Delivered a masterclass with Azuki since mint, he could have left when CT came for him in 2022, but he doubled down instead. Doodles – Burnt Toast is not just one of my favorite artists in this space but also a very talented builder. With Doodles back to being founder-led and fully crypto-native, I really like the trajectory they are on rn, absolutely crushing it. Memeland - Ray Chan is also the founder of (the worlds biggest) Meme platform, 9GAG. He has brought many new elements to this space during the bear market and is one of the few founders who joined during this time instead of leaving. Pudgy Penguins – Luca Netz is an incredibly capable entrepreneur, it seems like there is a bigger vision behind every single step he and the company take. Took an abandoned project and turned it into a billion dollar brand. Yuga - Garga is next to Zagabond and BT one of the few OG founders from the 2021/22 era of NFTs who is still leading the project. He and Gordon shaped the space into what it became later on. Moca – Yat and Tyler are absolute goats, Animoca Brands is one of the leading, if not THE leading VC in the space and is involved in countless projects. And those are just a few that come to mind within the NFT space, same goes for broader crypto as well. Bet on founders

NFT-native brands are already reaching millions of people. $PENGU, $DOOD, $ANIME etc are already in the face of the masses today through social media, events, and partnerships with some of the biggest companies and brands in the world. If you're not bullish I don't know what to tell you

A week ago, a friend told me to buy $ASTER, and I thought it was a typo and he meant $ABSTER, a memecoin on Abstract that I had bought months ago. So I said, "thanks but I already have enough exposure". It's so over for me https://t.co/RPMImrm0dF

I've leveled up my Opensea Treasure Chest to the highest tier currently unlocked. I did like ~$90k in swap volume and paid just under ~$2k USD in fees (RIP). The thesis is that I could win one of the NFTs from the treasury, which includes a Pudgy Penguin, a Bored Ape ($40k USD each) and Moonbirds, Azukis, Doodles etc. At the moment, winning any of the NFTs would be +EV, but I expect to lose another $2-4k USD while leveling up, so I'm not sure yet if it's a good idea as not many NFTs that are in the pool rn are worth $5k USD or more. However, I may have to do it because other people will be leveling up their chests, and the rarer the chest, the greater the chances of winning one of the NFTs. The treasury also grows over time, as Opensea passes on 50% of the fees to the pool. But yeah the fees are high here, so we'll see how that plays out. It's more of a gamble
