6 figure airdrop opportunity

Setting up an @eigenlayer Node on testnet.

Warning, not for beginners Things you will need

• Putty or Termius (SSH clients to enter commands)
• docker App @Docker
• a VPS plan from @ContaboCom
• Time and a dose of patience

With the latest Arbitrum Airdrop announcement and upcoming Grants program,

Billions of Dollars are starting to Flow into the Arbitrum ecosystem looking for a place to call home. And Most of the projects on Arbitrum have already done multiples with Traders front running the liquidity inflow.

But there is one project in Particular that I have my eyes on that may change liquidity in DEFI as we know it

Enter @ChronosFi_

This is why $ftm is just different

from ftm to any other change around 1 min (because it has the fastest finality of any chain) Any other chain usually around 7-15 Min sometimes more depending on congestion

Just like @optimismFND distributed tokens to select protocols based on TVL and users I see the same happening with arbitrum. Here are some tokens that seem to be sleeping with MC to TVL ratio as well as some other ecosystem tokens 👇 *Note, the reason im talking about some of the ecosystem tokens is because 42+% of the ARB supply is designated to be distributed to protocols to be shared with users.

Some of the tokens are pumping into this narrative in anticipation of getting in early on the yields

DEFI Hacks and exploits have become part of the norm.

In 2022 alone almost 4 Billion dollars were lost to Hackers, and this is just the beginning.

If we want DEFI to reach mass adoption there needs to be proper incentive systems in place to prevent this. To establish trust between hackers and protocols, we require web3 solutions that incentivize responsible bug reporting and improve protocol security.

Current web2 solutions lack these features, bug bounty on-chain can be a great start

If you missed $GMX dont miss $Kwenta

6 reasons why I think @Kwenta_io will Flip @GMX_IO in MC 👇 1. More Decentralized

Unlike $gmx, $kwenta does not have exposure to $usdc.

$susd from @synthetix_io is the engine that powers $kwenta.

Everyone is bullish so just thought I would check out history in 08.

In March 2008 a bank of similar size went bust and was bought out Bear Stearns At the same time the market was here (similar to where we are now)

Twitter is a tool that can create life and death

It can create exponential growth

And it can also create bank runs I don’t doubt one bit Someone was on the other side of the trade of SVB bank and paid to cause a bank run.

I’m not saying it wasn’t going to happen anyways, but someone had inside information that SVB bank didn’t have liquid capital to pay everyone out.

Some thoughts on what you can do if you have Usdc

$dai, $mai, $mim are not the same as $usdc

They are over collateralized stablecoins so if your trying to get out of usdc and dont want to take the haircut the best bet is in the overcollateralized stables The pegging mechanism is from arbitrage and even if usdc depegs, the vaults will operate as normal liquidating the collateral if its under water

There is so much noise in the DEFI space and sifting out the good from the bad is a full time Job.

Here are 4 of my favorite DEFI tools that make DD a breeze 👇 1. @Defilama
A go to for most DEGEns but has everything from

1. Top defi chains
2. Top projects for particular categories
3. Project raises
4. Stablecoin flows
5. Dex aggregator
6. Protocol volumes
7. CEX inflows/outflows
8. Cash cow finder (revenue)

Skating where the puck is going is how you make multiple x’s

With @coinbase announcing its chain being built on the op stack there may be a rooootator to optimism

Here are some of my Fav $op alts...... NFA and are risky 1. $Velo

@VelodromeFi is a solidly fork but can be considered the liquidity blackhole. Not to mention V2 coming with
a complete UI/UX overhaul, new features like custom pair support veNFT splitting, and more

https://twitter.com/ETH_Daily/status/1618881195852369920

Ve (3,3) forks have been some of the best performers of 2023

@solidlizardfi doing over 12,000 %
@VelodromeFi doing over 5000%
@Equalizer0x doing over 71,000 %

to put it into perspective A 10$ into each fork would have turned into over 9,000$ Buuuuut and its a big but, You have picked the right ones.

There have been other forks like $cone and $dyst that have massively underperformed

$dsla did well for me last bull run. Looks like they’re getting into the ZK narrative.

$gmx massively outperformed the markets in 2022 causing many forks and competitors in the space to be created, and for the most part most of them have failed.

However there have been a few that have been extremely successful. In this thread I will be sharing 5 protocols that are similar to $GMX and what contributed to their success, with one being a low market cap gem that may gain traction

I have researched hundreds of crypto projects, and they all have one thing in common.

They live and die by the community

Here is my 5 point checklist to spot great communities 🧵 1. Vibe check

When I jump into a discord/TG I take notes of the impression I get:

• Do I feel welcome?
• Do I feel included, or is it only for the "elite"?
• Does the chat feel dead?
• Are complaints are being ignored by the team?
• Is the chat flooded with bots saying👇?

Stealth launch Arbitrum gem that is slowly climbing in the ranks in TVL.

with almost 2 weeks since inception, the @solidlizardfi
TVL is almost 4x @3xcalibur69. Xcal is also a VE (3,3) fork on arbitrum that launched over a month ago. one of the main differences between $sliz and the other VE (3,3) forks is the integration of POL.

The POL is over 100k and is used for buybacks and liquidity for the $sliz token.

It’s degen but I think has more room to run. The first pump to .0008 I picked up a small amount.

It Will either do well or get rekt. Tldr it’s infrastructure for vpns. So instead of having something like the $OXT token used for @OrchidProtocol. Other teams in projects can build on top of the $DVPN and create their own VPN service

Crypto is full scams hacks and rug pulls, and yesterday I happened to fall into one.

Here is what happened and how you can keep it from happening to you I was looking to buy some $GNS on a dip.

I noticed it was trading at a discount on uniswap on arbitrum compared to the rest of the market and thought nice its my lucky day.

The .com bubble was a period of rampant speculation and vaporware

But picking the right stocks like google, Amazon or Facebook, and one would be sitting pretty.

Here is the checklist I use for finding 100x gems 1. The community

It doesn’t matter how good the tech is or how big of a problem the project was solving, if there was no community there was no project.

The community drives the growth.

Within POS chains like Ethereum, BSC, and Polygon, lie Billions of dollars waiting on the sidelines.

One small change can open the floodgates for Defi.

That change is Liquid Staking In POS consensus, tokens must be delegated to another node or used for running a personal node.

Tokens that are staked are basically a security deposit, If the validator is a "bad actor" (double spend, node down, ect.) staked tokens can be slashed.
