@SurfAI is a WEB3-specialized AI copilot that I personally use consistently for DeFi investments and project analysis.Recently, along with fresh investment news, they launched the Surf Waves points system and secured a big catch for their first ecosystem airdrop: @FabricFND's $ROBO.If you purchase using an affiliate partner code by March 2, you'll receive 10% cashback + 1,000 Surf Waves points.
I've been very bullish on Surf since last year. I ask all my WEB3-related questions through Surf, steadily accumulating Surf Waves points in the process.Lately they've also added the “Crypto Pulse” section where you can catch all the major news in one place, so it's clearly established itself as far more than just a search engine.If you're thinking of planting an apple tree🌳 right now, how about planting one in Surf which has just started its ecosystem airdrop journey? 🍎
📂 Maximizing the Use of WLFI (@worldlibertyfi)'s $USD1 X Binance Event, Extended for One MonthIn the current bear market, the most stable strategy in WEB3 is the stablecoin farming meta, and among them, holding $USD1 on @binance to earn 13% APR is the best option as a safe deposit spot with a decent APR combination.
However, if there's a slight misconception, it's that converting all assets to $USD1 would make active trading participation impossible—but that's not the case at all, and I want to share that it's possible with just a few simple operations.
1️⃣ How to Use Multi-Asset Mode in Binance Futures First, in Futures, you can transfer about $300,000 worth of $USD1, but most people don't know how to use it as collateral after transferring, so they're wasting the asset's potential utility.On mobile, tap the ••• button in the top right, go to Preferences, click on Asset Mode, and switch to Multi-Asset Mode—then you can use USD1 as collateral for futures trading.Of course, I'm not saying you absolutely have to do futures trading. If you have strategies you want to deploy, like hedging for pre-market listings or DeFi farming, and you thought it was difficult because of $USD1 farming, I just wanted to let you know that it's fully possible! By the way, you can obviously still earn interest while using it as collateral.
2️⃣Borrowing coins using $USD1 as collateral in Cross Margin.
$ETH is hard to utilize right now due to high demand, but $BTC is available to borrow.If you've found a spot with your own edge that's higher and safer than the borrowing rate APR of 0.37668%, you can adopt a strategy of borrowing $BTC with low LTV using $USD1 as collateral and then farming it.I won't get into which DApp to put it in, as that would make the story too long and add more risks, so I'll skip that part!Anyway, you can maximize utilization while farming $USD1 to the max.
Over the weekend, there was quite a stir in the Korean CT (Crypto Twitter) space regarding some remarks about Mad Lads backpack airdrop value.Based on the estimated value of the backpack, people are estimating that the airdrop value Mad Lads holders are receiving is around $500. A statement saying “Just think of it as a gift and happily accept it” triggered outrage, and the post went viral.Posts supporting that view argue: “Mad Lads was originally minted at $150 anyway, and they’ve already received huge airdrops from things like Dimension and Wormhole — what’s the problem?”Still, the reason many people are furious is: Among current holders, far more people bought Mad Lads on the secondary market at much higher prices than the original $150 mint price. Also, a large portion of holders bought in after the Wormhole and Dimension airdrops already happened. In other words — the current Mad Lads holder base is not in the situation the original comment described.My personal take on this situation: They just said something that didn’t need to be said and ended up eating unnecessary hate for it. Since it came from the CM (Community Manager), it wasn’t even that meaningful of a statement anyway — they could’ve just ignored it. But in a bear market, crypto people’s nerves are already on edge, so it clearly touched a sensitive spot.Old-school move No.1: Sometimes the correct answer is just to shut the f*ck up.
👀 Binance’s recent move(Buying $1B BTC with SAFU) is very positive as a Web3 exchange.
Many crypto exchanges lately are listing stocks and gold in addition to native crypto assets. While enabling people to freely trade everything may align with the broader Web3 vision, I am concerned that this direction moves further away from the core ethos and could gradually dilute interest in crypto itself.
In this situation, I think it is very encouraging to see a leading exchange holding $BTC in its treasury and walking this path alongside the ecosystem. It feels like an official show of support that they have not forgotten crypto’s roots and the importance of sustaining genuine interest in the space.
Personally, I hope this kind of move spreads to many more exchanges and other core Web3 players as well.
I met Bing (Shuyao Kong) on the day of the $MEGA allocation. Since he said he was in Korea, I invited him out for coffee, and though it was a short meeting, we ended up having quite a deep conversation.
Before being a MegaETH founder, Brother Bing was an advisor at Consensys, founder of Hotpot DAO, and one of the early community builders of Ethereum itself — so it was truly an honor and a meaningful encounter.
He seemed to be thinking deeply about the industry’s direction. I told him, from my more speculative retail perspective, whatever insights I could. Interestingly, he was very concerned about community building which I didn’t expect and I mentioned that MegaETH might actually be one of the few projects in Korea that became well-known without spending a single dollar on marketing.
He also shared that he hopes people see MegaETH not just as a blockchain, but as an operating system and through initiatives like MegaMafia, he wants to bring new users into Web3 and build consumer-facing apps with real-world utility. Personally, that aligns perfectly with why I went full-cap lockup on MegaETH, and I sincerely hope those plans materialize beyond words. From what I could tell, there’s a lot happening behind the scenes toward that goal.
After that, we just chatted about life and relationships before parting ways.
@immunefi — the name might sound familiar. It’s a security-focused project that basically does bug bounties and crowd-based audits, you could say.
It’s worked with pretty much every major project you can think of, including AAVE and others
It kinda gives me the same feeling as when WalletConnect first appeared on CoinList . It feels like it’s going to do well. They’ve been around and widely used for a long time, so you might think, “Do they really need a token?” and that’s exactly when things usually go well anyway.
The fact that Samsung Next is involved gives me mixed feelings, but aside from that, it looks solid.
👍I think this is a very important hint for catching alpha.
Just look at the projects that have gone through the Binance Booster Program : Openledger, Hemi, Zerobase, Lombard
all of them made it to Binance Spot and performed exceptionally well. Looking at the current lineup, it seems that the Binance Booster Campaign is designed to support builders who are trying something new, especially in areas like AI, BTCFI, and ZK.
zkPass , with its focus on privacy-preserving identity verification, is pioneering a new frontier. Let’s keep an eye on it.
🔥No scientific basis for the Squid Game series and coin break
Strangely, it seemed like there was a boring period for coins during the 1-2 weeks after the release of Squid Game, and there were many relatable Squid Game memes, but in reality, the market was not good around the release time.
Should I take a break after watching Squid Game 3 again?
While doing coin trading today, my dear friend is at the summit of Injective (@injective) happening in New York. In fact, the foreigners participating in the AMA... you know that they are speaking very slowly for us Koreans, right?
I am trying to get used to the pace of English that friends speak without hesitation.
Let me share my honest thoughts on Binance Alpha and wallet IDOs.
Does it really help your project? Binance alpha receivers are just doing favors for Binance and walking away with your tokens.
Is it truly the foundation’s intention for some to receive tokens earlier than actual contributors and capitalize at the peak before anyone else?
And most importantly , do you really think retail investors will believe it’s a real Binance listing just because it’s on Alpha? Alpha is just a bathroom with a Binance logo on it.
🔥 The $HSK of Hashi seems to show a truly honest movement.
After the unlock on June 10, the final unlock quantity will be released on July 10. Over the past six months, it has almost been cut down to 9 pieces, devouring the quantities of terrified and panic-stricken retail investors, and now it has rebounded by 3 times.. This was truly the trend everyone expected, but the reason we couldn't play according to it is simple. . . . . . . Did you really think it would drop this much? I also bought at 0.5 and when it halved, I was about to urinate in public in Hong Kong but then I forgot about it, sob sob sob.
Last time, we received a lot of support from Sidekick through streaming.
Could it be that this is really given on-chain? It can't just be given as credits, right? I thought, but it all came on-chain ㄷㄷ;; It's amazing that the profits earned from broadcasting can be conveniently utilized.
Moreover, since it was done during a down market, today Solana rebounded and I received almost 2 million won in support through the broadcast. The influence of the big hands from the mainland seems really significant. I heard that Sidekick also opened a separate door for the Korean community; can you create a Korean pool as well?
$NEWT $0.82 ...LOL I didn't expect the Upbit listing, but it certainly has a different vibe. If I had held on, it would have been a significant gain, but it seems that the more critical thing at times like this is to not get hung up on what I've left behind, which prevents me from moving on to the next trade.
Still, it was a relatively good trade, and I'm praying that the things I sent over will sell for a high price.
Congratulations to all the traders and everyone involved!
🇰🇷 Gangnam is currently in packed due to OpenLedger.
The line to get into the @OpenledgerHQ IRL event reportedly stretches for hundreds of meters. What on earth is going on? I’m hearing all this from Busan, but at this rate, the queue might just reach all the way down here soon.
The pre-market price of $NEWT dropped after the Binance listing announcement but reached an all-time high following the Upbit listing news.
If you look at recent cases like SOON, MapleUniverse, and Sophon, it becomes clear where the strongest liquidity is created. Price isn't everything, but it accounts for more than half of a successful launch. Any foundation that overlooks Korea now simply doesn’t understand the current market dynamics.
