你是否想过，稳定币巨头Tether竟然也玩起了风险投资？没错，它真的出手了！Tether，那个发行了全球领先的稳定币USDT的大佬，最近宣布向Arcanum Capital的Arcanum Emerging Technologies Fund II投了200万美金，这可是它的VC首秀啊！
想象一下，一个原本在稳定币领域呼风唤雨的大佬，突然转身一变，成了Web3项目的支持者，这是不是在预示着什么？是稳定币的下一个风口来了，还是Web3项目要迎来新的春天？
这笔投资，可不只是简单地撒钱那么简单。Arcanum这个基金，专注于支持去中心化的Web3项目，旨在推动区块链技术的发展，包括跨境汇款、隐私保护、金融普惠等。Tether这一投，无疑是在为这些前沿技术加油打气，也为自己的业务版图开辟了新的领地。
Tether的CEO Paolo Ardoino说了，他们这么做，是为了支持那些能够抵御审查、促进开放沟通的系统，特别是在地缘政治和金融限制日益严峻的今天。这话听起来，是不是让人觉得Tether不仅在做生意，还在为世界的自由和开放贡献力量？
而且，Tether可不止做了这一件大事。它还搞了个Hadron平台，让企业和政府能把现实中的资产，比如证券、股票，都“上链”变成数字资产。这操作，简直就是给传统金融界来了个“数字大爆炸”！

更让人意想不到的是，Tether还投了7.75亿美金给那个以言论自由著称的视频分享平台Rumble。你说，这是不是为了给那些被主流平台“禁言”的声音，找个新家？
说到这，还有个大新闻不能忘。金融巨头Cantor Fitzgerald竟然也买了Tether 5%的股份，价值高达6亿美金！这个收购，是不是意味着Tether要在监管的“紧箍咒”下，找到新的“护身符”了？毕竟，Cantor Fitzgerald的CEO Howard Lutnick，可是刚被特朗普任命为商务部部长呢！
看到这，你是不是也开始好奇了？Tether这一连串的大动作，到底是要搅动什么风云？是稳定币和Web3的“跨界恋”，还是金融界和科技界的“大联姻”？

Think about this:

Almost all VC money is being spent on projects that haven’t even come close to launching yet.

Projects with no track record, no community. Just thousands of bot followers.

Mostly repackaged, redundant protocols.

No working model or projections.

Just half-baked ideas in pdf format.

And investors are throwing money at THESE instead of looking at battle tested projects that survived bear markets, are now rife with innovation & liquidity, and doing considerable volume with increased DAUs.

🐾

What should that tell you about the well-known sh*t coins you accumulated at a “discount” in the bear market that investors won’t even glance at?

This is what it should tell you:

There’s almost no upside for established “blue chip” tokens this time around because [1] the value has been extracted already or [2] the value is disconnected from the actual token.

Sorry I have to be the one to tell you this, but you didn’t get a “deal” last year when you “lowered your cost basis” on these:

Cardano? No.
Algorand? No. lol.
Vechain? Hell no.
Uniswap? Pfffft!
Atom? Mehhhh…
Sandbox? Put down the crack pipe.

Almost NO CHANCE for these staples to revisit ATHs despite being MORE fit for users & app builders now than they were 3-5 years ago. They are on every CEX in the galaxy & have socials in every language.

But, no matter how comfortable they make you feel, their upside is nearly nonexistent…save an insane alt coin blow off top, in which case they will still underperform badly.

And guess what? The downside is still there!

I’ll confidently say that holding these is riskier than taking a flyer at an unproven protocol or newly forked chain that trades in 1 pool on a DEX you never heard of.

Personally, 1/3rd of my portfolio scares the piss out of me. Some don’t even have websites or users. And I sleep fine at night because finding solid risk:return ratio is tough this cycle. Therefore, I feel my strategy is warranted.

If you like being comfortable, you might has well just buy $COIN stock, delete your socials, & get an outdoor hobby. Based on market cap, CB is way more undervalued than your favorite top 100 legacy token.
(Seriously tho you should get off Twitter after reading this because you follow the wrong people…)

So, good luck with that portfolio full of boomer tokens. Bitcoin is already outperforming you. So are meme tokens on the most hated network. And you’re in denial. You should look in the mirror and whisper “idiot” to yourself several times a day until you change.

And make sure you bookmark this tweet & let’s talk again in 2025-26.

But please, remember it was ME who told you years prior that most of your favorite tokens would NOT pump again.

Cheers!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why did I post this?

I liked this article a lot because it resonates a lot with me. As everyone almost knows, we have been building a fully, purposeful project called The Bonuz Market Ecosystem. We just launched our social smart wallet on iOS and Android to start this journey since it is the gateway and very interoperable with its capabilities.
We are aiming to onboard a billion users.. but we took over 2 years of building with minimal funding. No VC wants to fund us for doing a real genuine project, because they simply see the narrative in the liquidity of the narrative. Also I cant exactly talk their deceiving language because of my honest and straight forward nature.
Good products that are intuitive and easy are actually not something anyone wants to invest in. They need hype and speculation, big community and a token out, which benefits them.
Also, especially if the project doesn't fit the narrative and doesn't have the right lead VC on it, then it's totally unattractive.
It's like a copy-paste game for these financial fkkkkers... all are just profit-driven. The author CosmoDefi pointed it out so well.

Anyhow, now we are built and hope that we are able to prove the value and actually raise some money without the token. So it's great to keep this strength and stamina and sail through the storm to where we have reached today.
Perhaps the investors of the future will have a better mindset to filter good and genuine projects of purpose and actually invest some time in talking with the founders and seeing the product instead of looking at the deck for 90 seconds and then judging it. It almost feels like racism to me for judging a project on the paper, lol.

Reality is not so nice.
Persistence combined with a wise warrior mind and some discipline for constant execution was my way; also, educating the people around me and attending every conference helped. Still, VCs are asking retarded wrong questions. Founders or people who understand the tech are investing instead. What a battle we put ourselves in. I hope I can find some investment / VC specialist for my company who can do this job for me. I open the doors... and they do the talk. boom! Maybe that's the magic formula to get funded asap.
