Recently, while checking the on-chain data of Falcon Finance, I noticed something. Everyone is focused on the yield of their new pool, but no one has noticed the extra line of code in last week's contract update, a metadata field called 'loyalty score'. This thing isn't activated yet, but think about it, isn't this a foreshadowing for issuing NFTs in the future? So, let's not simply guess 'yes' or 'no' anymore. Today, let's change our perspective and start from this overlooked technical detail to discuss what Falcon's real motivation for issuing NFTs might be and how it will change the way we old players play.

APRO and ai16z have joined forces, and those of us working on Agents no longer have to play 'security guard' ourselves! Today, I saw APRO and ai16z officially announce their collaboration, and I felt a weight lift off my shoulders—those of us developing Agents can finally focus on 'intelligence' without splitting our brains to act as 'communication security'. In the past, when several Agents worked together, the most troublesome issue was their 'communication' being insecure. Should I handle encryption verification myself? It was a hassle and might not even prevent middlemen from causing trouble. APRO's ATTPs protocol is now directly integrated into the core of ElizaOS; what is that like? It's like the rich broth used in Henan Hui Mian, it's already simmered at the bottom of the pot, so when you cook the noodles (developing Agents), they naturally carry that fresh flavor (secure communication). Their four open-source 'source agents' are the real deal. I'm particularly interested in that privacy computing coordination agent. For example, I want several Agents to analyze user data together without leaking the original information; in the past, it would take half a year to build this architecture, but now it can be called directly. This isn't just saving code, it's saving lives! In the long run, this collaboration has set a strict rule: in the future, whether Agents are impressive or not will not only depend on how 'capable' they are but also on how 'reliable' they are. APRO has moved the hard work of 'trustworthy verification' from oracles on the blockchain into the collaboration of AI Agents. With the foundation of trust in the ecosystem stabilized, we developers can dare to unleash our creativity for bigger projects. Right! This approach is spot on. @APRO Oracle#apro $AT #apro $AT
Why do I regard my Kite airdrop worth $60 as a treasure
Why do I regard my Kite airdrop worth $60 as a treasure? I, old Xu, a veteran in the crypto world, almost scoffed when I received the Kite airdrop last month—averaging around $60, it was a far cry from the 'get rich quick' scenario I had imagined. But when I carefully studied what I had received, my mindset shifted from 'Is that it?' to 'Oh wow!', and now this string of tokens seems heavier than gold in my eyes. The 'watershed' of value perception after the airdrop Many friends who received the airdrop took a glance at the price, which peaked at $0.149 and is now around $0.08, feeling indifferent, even bored. This has become the best 'cognitive filter.' The noisy speculators have left, and those who remain start to think seriously: What exactly is Kite doing? It’s not just another meme coin that urges you to 'buy, buy, buy'; it’s doing the hard, tedious work of paving the road for the future AI economy.
From 1000000 to zero, my friend paid for the lesson with blood and tears
@Lorenzo Protocol#LorenzoProtocol $BANK Last Wednesday early morning, a friend suddenly called me, his voice hoarse: "I got liquidated, 6000000 is all gone." Three months ago, he was still celebrating in the group how 1000000 turned into 6000000, now his account balance is zero. This is not the first time he has experienced this roller coaster, but every time he feels that "next time I will definitely turn it around". The deadly temptation of contracts I watched him sink deeper step by step: At first it was just a small play, testing the waters with 50x leverage A precise bottom-fishing made his funds double in two days Since then, he has been addicted to this "get rich quick" thrill
GAIB is igniting the next wave of RWA revolution! The perfect fusion of AI + US Treasury bonds, your stablecoin yields are about to be redefined! Core innovation: When AI infrastructure meets on-chain assets GAIB has done something disruptive: tokenizing the real-world AI infrastructure (such as computing centers, robotic networks) and putting it on-chain, seamlessly connecting AI, RWA, and DeFi across three trillion-dollar sectors! Dual token model: The golden combination of AID and sAID AID (AI Dollar): A synthetic dollar backed by stable assets such as US Treasury bonds, essentially a compliant, interest-bearing stablecoin sAID (Staked AID): Obtained by staking AID, representing your yield rights and liquidity credentials in the DeFi market The value logic seen through by veterans Reliable source of income: Funds directed towards US Treasury bonds and AI infrastructure, offering yields far exceeding traditional stablecoins Dual liquidity assurance: sAID can be freely traded in the DeFi market, solving the liquidity dilemma of RWA assets AI sector leverage explosion: Directly participate in AI computing and robotic financing, sharing the dividends of the AI era Why is this considered the 3.0 version of stablecoins? 1.0 Era: USDT/USDT (only pegged) 2.0 Era: DAI (over-collateralized) 3.0 Era: AID/sAID (asset-backed + interest-bearing + AI yields) Ultimate judgment GAIB is not just a simple RWA project, but a construction of on-chain financial infrastructure for the AI era. Through the AID/sAID model, ordinary investors can also participate in AI infrastructure investments with low barriers, something traditional finance absolutely cannot achieve! @GAIB AI #GAIB #gaib
YGG is building a city of blockchain gaming: a comprehensive integration of offline summits, task centers, and creator economy.
As a long-time active player in the blockchain gaming field, I have witnessed Yield Guild Games (YGG) evolve from a simple online guild to a diverse ecosystem named "YGG Play City." This "city" is redefining the boundaries of gaming guilds through three pillars: offline summits, task centers, and creator rewards. Offline Summit: A Carnival Feast for Web3 Gaming The YGG Play Summit, scheduled to be held from November 19 to 22, 2025, at the SMX Convention Center in Manila, has transcended the traditional scope of guild activities. This event, dubbed "the world's largest Web3 gaming summit for players," features a wealth of content, including esports tournaments, playtesting areas, educational workshops, roundtable discussions, and live podcast recordings, resembling a complete gaming exhibition.

Flipping through the $XPL token model, I found that its incentive mechanism is somewhat 'anti-traditional'
Recently, while researching the token economics of various new public chains, I discovered some interesting designs when I looked at Plasma (XPL). Many projects like to use high inflation and high APY staking rewards to attract early validators and users, but XPL's model seems to deliberately avoid this path. Its inflation rate is designed to be quite conservative, which makes me curious about what exactly it wants to rely on to incentivize network participants? After in-depth research, I found that the core idea of XPL seems to be shifting from 'inflation rewards' to 'real returns'. First, its initial inflation rate is set at 5% per year, and it will decrease year by year, ultimately stabilizing at 3%. This figure is a breath of fresh air among PoS chains with often double-digit inflation rates. More crucially, the tokens held by the team and investors that are locked cannot participate in staking and receive this inflation reward. This means that the early inflation will only flow to external stakers who truly participate in network validation, avoiding the scenario where insiders 'earn money while lying down', diluting the interests of external contributors.
Is the Linea airdrop a done deal? You must catch ConsenSys's 'golden shovel'!
The most frequently asked questions in the background lately almost all revolve around Linea. Is Linea's airdrop a sure thing? Is it still possible to get in now? Before discussing airdrops, we need to understand who exactly Linea belongs to. It's ConsenSys. This name might be a bit unfamiliar to you, but the things you use every day come from them: MetaMask, yes, that's the little fox wallet. ConsenSys is almost synonymous with the 'arsenal' of the Ethereum ecosystem, the OG of OGs. So, Linea is not a grassroots L2; it was born with a golden key, it is an elite force.
How Morpho Enhances Capital Efficiency In the traditional financial system, a large amount of capital remains idle or operates inefficiently. Morpho has initiated a revolution in capital efficiency through technological innovation. Its core lies in a unique matching algorithm that can identify borrowing needs in real time and accurately allocate idle funds to where they are most needed. The specific implementation of this revolution relies on three key mechanisms: first is intelligent order matching, where the system automatically finds lending and borrowing parties with matching interest rate requirements; second is dynamic routing optimization, where funds select the optimal path based on market conditions; and finally, real-time risk adjustment, where the system continuously monitors market conditions and adjusts parameters promptly. Data shows that Morpho's capital efficiency is significantly higher than traditional models. Through direct point-to-point matching, depositors can achieve returns that are 15-30% higher than traditional agreements, while borrowers see costs reduced by 10-25%. This efficiency improvement does not stem from risk-bearing but is achieved by eliminating intermediaries and optimizing resource allocation. More importantly, Morpho's efficiency revolution is sustainable. As network effects strengthen and algorithms continue to optimize, capital efficiency will further improve. This mechanism of continuous improvement ensures the protocol's long-term advantage in a fiercely competitive market. #morpho $MORPHO
Interviewing 97 post-00s gave me a cold sweat! Polygon is eating away at the next million users' cake
This week I interviewed 97 recent graduates who want to enter Web3. When I asked "which DEX have you used," 89 of them looked confused. What shocked me the most was when a girl from Fudan's finance department excitedly told me: "I watch K-line analysis on Xiaohongshu every day and spent 2999 yuan to buy an investment course!" — but she didn't even know how to install MetaMask. Technician's perspective: Why this is Polygon's golden opportunity When I let these newcomers try to complete their first transaction on three mainstream public chains, the results were shocking: Actual test data comparison (October 2024 actual test): Ethereum mainnet: 87% of newcomers are discouraged by Gas fees over $19
