The most ridiculous free airdrop opportunities you may not know about:

Not only has $TON performed well recently, but the market capitalization of its ecosystem coins $NOT and $DOGS also surprised me. Their market capitalization is still between $400 million and $750 million. It's crazy to think that they are just meme coins that became popular through airdrops in a few weeks based on the popularity of TON.

Generally, such opportunities will be arbitraged out quickly and the value of participating will be gone, but sometimes this wave of dividends can last longer than you think.

For example, the airdrop craze triggered by Arbitrum before.

Looking back, those standards are too obvious, like giving away money, as long as you are active on the chain. It was not until the emergence of Wormhole, Jito, Manta Galxe, zkSync, Starknet, Dymension, LayerZero and Tensor that this wave of craze slowly ended. You can easily get these airdrops if you just follow some basic rules.

That’s why I think the Ton/Telegram airdrop has one last chance to explode, and then it will be arbitraged by institutions (no kidding, liquidity and points airdrops have indeed been participated by institutions).

Now there are new Telegram airdrop opportunities every day, and it’s hard to guess which one will trigger this last wave. However, Binance’s own TG applet may be the most likely player.

How to get started:
Open the Telegram app: Moonbix Bot, sign in every day to get 100 coins. Click the screen to “shoot” the hook to grab coins and gift boxes. Connect your Binance account to Telegram, which may determine whether Moonbix coins will be airdropped to your CEX account. Play 6 games a day - each game is about 45 seconds.
Optional: Invite friends through your referral link to get extra coins.

Is there any pitfall?

After all, it’s free to play.
I think we are now in the “late early” stage of the Telegram airdrop craze, but the app is not officially launched yet.

Once it's officially launched, everyone will rush in, so it's worth participating early.

The airdrop market is a bit quiet right now, so I might actually play 6 times a day - especially considering that it's completely free and there have been crazier airdrops before, such as staking 1 SOL to make thousands of dollars (Jito).

Ranking of practical altcoins invested by VC:
S-level: $ZRO, $SUI, $CHR
A-level: $NEAR, $JTO, $TON, $TAO
B-level: $TIA, $DYM, $SEI, $ZK, $SAGA
C-level: $APT, $ARB, $OP, $ONDO, $W, $WLD
D-level: $DRIFT

Most altcoins are now bottoming out, down 70-80% from their historical highs, and the fully diluted valuation (FDV) of many projects is similar to the valuation during private placement.
$ZRO was valued at $3 billion during private placement, and investors locked up for one year. The current FDV is $3.8 billion, which looks very stable.
$SUI has a very good community development and its technical performance is also very impressive.
$CHR mainnet is about to be launched, and it is obvious on the chart that funds are quietly accumulating.
$DRIFT is now frantically looking for someone to take over, and there are obvious signs of liquidity flight

SCR Binance Opening Time: October 22, 4 PM (Beijing Time)

I didn't expect that scroll would be listed on Binance before the airdrop was even issued. I don't understand, is scroll good?

Isn't scroll a domestic project? Before, the gas fees of other L2s were reduced, but it still requires 2-3u gas fees, which is clearly cutting the gas fees.

Afterwards, various TVL activities were launched, and scroll is a domestic deep PUA interaction master

Even if it is listed on Binance, it still needs PUA users, and issued three badges overnight, one for about 0.21u, and 0 users for 5.49Wu

When SCR was listed, I saw that the price was only 1u. I remember that in the last round of financing, the price of institutions was 1.8u!

Isn't 1U clearly giving away money? ? ? It's a pity that one Binance can only buy 2500! It was pulled to 1.4 today, and I haven't sold it yet.
I'm waiting for the spot to be listed on the 21st, and earn 2000u. Although scroll is rubbish, the price is still underestimated. Binance is obviously diluting the interests of big investors, giving some money to retail investors, and not letting leeks take over. Let all leeks buy cheap chips of 2500SCR. It cannot only let miners make money and retail investors take over. At the same time, let me, a leek, have a sense of gain from trading!

I think that at present, after trying this pre-market trading operation, the overall feeling is still good, which is much better than the pre-market trading of those exchanges, because the liquidity is also aggregated, and it is done very well!

Binance has a really big pattern. I'm sorry that I spoke loudly before, and I have honestly begged for forgiveness! Next time I dare

I think the best opportunity before the election is to invest in election-related "Beta" tokens, because people will speculate on who will win.

As the election approaches, the odds will gradually balance. Kamala odds rise = Kamala-related meme tokens rise.

Although I like Trump very much, and although Trump's winning rate on polymakert is as high as 60%, have you ever thought about a problem? That data belongs to the public opinion of the crypto group, and it cannot represent the United States. Because many friends in the currency circle are more inclined to Trump because he supports crypto.

My intuition tells me that Kamala will be elected.

However, the most worthwhile token to bet on the first-tier centralized exchange (T1 CEX) during the election is still $PEOPLE.

The most favorable scenario for altcoins is that BTC moves sideways.

If BTC rises from here to $70,000, it could deal a bigger blow to altcoins.

I remember this happening the last time a bull run started its parabolic phase.

Whether BTC is rising or falling, funds are being sucked out of altcoins as dominance steadily rises.

It looks like $MEW may enter the value discovery phase this week.

Among all meme coins, MEW has very deep on-chain liquidity.

It has a strong real-world influence and is even active in activities outside of cryptocurrencies.

It is currently the top meme coin in terms of trading volume on Upbit, the largest exchange in South Korea.

There are fewer holders on Crypto Twitter (CT), so there is still a lot of room for growth.

Popcat is worth $1.5 billion, and MEW is at least $1 billion.

What is NEIRO?

Kabosumama, the owner of the late Kabosu (the inspiration for $DOGE), adopted a new dog named "Neiro". When she shared the story of the new dog, a group of people immediately rushed to launch a token because they knew it could be the biggest topic of this bull cycle.

Different Neiros 👇

The first $NEIRO token to be launched was @NeiroWoof, which was actually launched on the @pumpdotfun platform on #Solana. It was distributed fairly, with no snipers or insiders

Soon, other NEIRO tokens were launched on multiple chains:

Some key points about @neiro:

Accumulated 80% of the supply, pretended to be the CTO, and then pumped the price like crazy.

Partnered with @gotbit_io, knowing that they were manipulating a "pump and dump", sending about 60% of the supply to Binance and market makers.

Listed on @binance with a low market cap of ~$15M, with the help of @justinsuntron and Binance insiders, but without rigorous due diligence.

@neiro and @moodengctoeth are basically the same people behind the scenes (they have launched at least 3 other projects on Ethereum in the past two weeks, each of which is a copy of the token from other chains, which is really a typical operation). Even the people in the cx chart have not changed

Donated $50K to @bubblemaps to make it publish an article saying that uppercase neiro is a conspiracy group, but in fact it is also a conspiracy group!

Summary: In fact, whether it is me, neiro, or bubblemaps, the butt determines the head. Because I have made money on uppercase NEIRO, I have always supported it.

Binance announced the next Launchpool project yesterday:
@SCR Token

5.5% of the total SCR supply will be mined during the Launchpool [Oct 9-11] Initial circulating supply: 19%

An expected portion (2-4%) will be allocated to market makers, which leaves 9-11% of airdrop potential.

Premarket trading will begin on Oct 11, so I presume you will be able to trade your mined tokens, but you will not be able to deposit or withdraw $SCR on Binance until early next week.

The Launchpool allocation is quite substantial, and the first day listing has a big impact on Binance.

Until $SCR is in my wallet, I will keep my assets in multiple Scroll farms, at least.

1/ $EIGEN is not in the top 100 in terms of market cap.
For comparison, Chainlink's $LINK is 11 times larger, and $TAO is 7 times larger.
Even $TIA is twice as large as $EIGEN. Why is that?

2/ Even more surprising is that Eigenlayer has become the third largest protocol with a locked value (TVL) of $10 billion, almost on par with AAVE's $11 billion.
But AAVE's market cap is 3.7 times that of $EIGEN.
In terms of TVL, AAVE's price is actually only half of $EIGEN's.

3/ $EIGEN has received at least 2 times more attention on the X platform than all the tokens mentioned above in the past 6 months, and its trading price is still very low.

4/ The reason is a bit complicated.
Many people told me that they don’t really understand what Eigenlayer is doing, and think its token economics are too complicated and not as straightforward as Aave.

5/ Not only because of the complexity, the same group of people also think $EIGEN is bad because it is a “VC-funded, low circulation, high FDV token”.

However, many similar tokens have much higher market caps than $EIGEN: like $WLD, $SUI, $APT, $JUP ($JUP is twice the market cap of $EIGEN!), $ALEO, and $TIA....

6/ The recent “unsanctioned sell-off” also hit its security image.

But I think the bigger problem is that $EIGEN lacks a speculative story.

Although many people don’t understand $TAO or $TIA, there are speculative communities behind these tokens.

7/ $TAO took advantage of the popularity of the AI ​​concept.
In contrast, the initial enthusiasm for re-staking has subsided, and Eigen has not been able to take full advantage of that wave. Coupled with the rise of two major competitors, it is in an even more awkward situation.
At the same time, $TIA has maintained a high market value by attracting users through "staking TIA to get ecological airdrops".

8/ $EIGEN can refer to $TIA's approach and issue airdrops of the ecological AVS protocol to pledgers, with even greater force.
I mean "great force" seriously - many people have lost confidence in "staking for airdrops", so it's time to overturn this view.

9/ But there is a big problem here:
Insiders control 77% of $EIGEN's stake, diluting community rewards.
The staked and locked tokens make people more resistant to VC tokens.

In trend trading, I like to think in terms of “directional proportions” when it comes to every trend change.
Meaning, if we rebound [a 60% decline in 3 months], I won’t just celebrate with a 20% increase; I’ll force myself to think bigger.

Even if I can only complain at the end: “It only went up 20% and then fell back again”, that’s fine.
At least I can sleep peacefully knowing that I have mastered the mentality to survive in this market environment we wait for every day (everyone is a “genius” moment).

The key is to minimize false signals and keep retracements within a reasonable range when false signals appear.

In fact, this concept is very simple, just like when breaking through a range of more than a month, everyone will say “don’t fight the range breakout”.

This is a way of thinking to win in the long run; of course, there are always deviations. Just learn to find security in risk.

zkSync vs. Scroll airdrop comparison

zkSync FDV during airdrop:
~$4.2 billion ($0.20 per $ZK)
Scroll pre-listing FDV:
~$1.5 billion
zkSync airdrop receiving addresses:
695,232 wallets
zkSync first airdrop supply:
17.50% of total supply

Different distribution methods

zkSync uses a hierarchical model, and although the airdrop ratio is high, the number of eligible wallets is relatively small.

Scroll is a linear model, which means that you get corresponding rewards based on how much liquidity you contribute, but this method is easily exploited by Aave loop operations.

Scroll's advantage: badge system
Scroll's possible trump card is its badge system. Most users don't participate in the more than 30 protocols in the ecosystem, nor do they mint a lot of badges, which gives more opportunities to those who seriously participate in the badge system.
Only 645,600 wallets have participated in Scroll Canvas. As participation in badges increases, the number of users drops dramatically: Next 8 badges: less than 100,000 users Next 8 badges: less than 60,000 users Next 8 badges: less than 32,000 users And so on.

Who will benefit from the Scroll airdrop?

Whales 🐋
Whales have already gained a significant share through liquidity mining. For them, the linear model is not important because getting a 10%-20% return on the entire ETH holding is already far above the market level (don't forget, they also get an additional 3% ETH income).

Small users / farmers 👨‍🌾
Small users who work hard to brush badges can get more benefits through the tiered model (such as minting 5 badges, 10 badges, 15 badges, etc.). Since the participation rate of badges is relatively low, the tiered model is very feasible for them.

Reference to other projects’ airdrops

zkSync’s airdrop ratio is 17.5%, while LayerZero’s is 8.5%.
Although LayerZero’s initial airdrop ratio is smaller, it has received more positive feedback, mainly because its criteria are more reasonable, combined with the redistribution of unclaimed tokens and $5 billion FDV.
Conclusion
If Scroll chooses an airdrop ratio of more than 12% and sets reasonable distribution criteria, this airdrop may still be successful even with a lower FDV.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?

Len Sassaman - The Man with $64 Billion in $BTC
He could be Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin
I spent about 10 hours researching the data and was shocked by what I found
Here is the story of the biggest cryptocurrency billionaire in history 🧵👇

1/➮Who is Len Sassaman?
@lensassaman is a well-known cryptographer and privacy advocate. He was involved in the Cypherpunks group in San Francisco. He also participated in privacy projects such as Pretty Good Privacy software and GNU privacy protection tools, and co-founded a SaaS startup.

2/➮ In 2011, he committed suicide at the age of 31.
At the time, he was a PhD student in electrical engineering at KU Leuven University in Belgium. A memorial to him was embedded in the Bitcoin blockchain, calling Sassaman "a friend, a kind soul, and a cunning mastermind."

3/➮ HBO documentary
Recently, HBO produced a documentary called "MoneyElectric: The Bitcoin Mystery" that suggested that Sassaman might be Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin.

4/➮ What's the evidence?
Sassaman's impressive academic background, cryptography expertise, and his language analysis show that his writing style is similar to Satoshi NakamotoThere's more...

5/➮ The most interesting evidence
Satoshi Nakamoto suddenly disappeared two months before Sassaman's deathWhile some people believe he is Satoshi Nakamoto, his wife disagrees (her opinion is below 👇)

6/➮ Details of the suicide note
Sassaman's suicide note consists of 24 random words, which are very similar to the 24 mnemonics used in cryptocurrency walletsSatoshi Nakamoto's $64 billion in Bitcoin remains untouched to this day

7/➮ Final conclusion?
I think we still need to wait for the premiere of the HBO documentary to draw a final conclusionEven if Sassaman is not Satoshi Nakamoto, his contributions to cryptography and privacy are still very important

8/➮ Additional information
Len Sassaman is considered the most likely person to be Satoshi Nakamoto in the Polymarket poll

My god, CZ is back

I was a little sad to see the news of CZ's early return. I always thought that he would return on September 29, so I was waiting for the price to drop a little before buying. I didn't expect that he would return early, and I haven't gotten on the train yet. CZ, can't you stay a little longer? I saw on the news that you can go out to see a movie? ? ? ?

Why do you say CZ is my god?

Because he is my spiritual pillar in the currency circle! He said: In the short term, people with low bottom lines can indeed make money. But in the long run, people who know what money should not be made can go further and make more in the future. This sentence has always influenced me and prevented me from going down the road of making a fortune😅.

That year I was a freshman, and I was very confused. I liked finance very much, but I didn't choose the finance major and didn't want to go to school. I often read some things about the stock market on Weibo. It seems that in November 21, I saw on the Weibo of "Finance" that the richest Chinese Zhao Changpeng was worth 634.8 billion. I was shocked. Where did this person come from? After learning about it, I felt that I could make money in the cryptocurrency circle, because Zhao Changpeng made 700 billion in 4 years. I immediately registered for Binance. I gradually played Twitter and got in touch with contracts. I bought whatever new coins were listed on Binance. I caught up with a bull market and made some money.

Binance has changed

1. Crazy about VC coins: In the past, many coins had to go through a long journey to be listed on Binance. Generally, they were listed on small exchanges first and then on OKX. Their value was slowly discovered before they were listed on Binance. Now these vc coins are listed directly, with billions of fdv when they are listed. Buy one and lose one. I bought a saga, which fell from 7u to 2.3u now. It was really numb! At that time, I realized that listing on Binance had no money-making effect.

2. Stealing the bestie coin: Lista was formerly invested by Binance. It had various black histories and was stolen. It changed its name to Lista and cut another round. BB is also a new coin issued by an old friend of Binance’s auction.

3. The finale of the consolation coin: Why did Neiro go on Binance with a market value of 20 million? Is it because it was scolded too badly by users, to appease users? The announcement was also very misleading. Many people thought it was a spot on the capital letter, and they all went all in on the capital letter and lost everything (including me).

Will CZ come back to Binance?

I really hope CZ will come back, and I miss Binance in 21 years. As the largest shareholder of Binance, CZ has a say in major decisions of Binance within the scope allowed.
