Four Core Mechanisms for Ordinary People to Profit from the TRON Network
1. Energy Economy: "Zero Cost" Transactions and Resource Leasing
- Energy Acquisition: Only need to stake 300-500 TRX (approximately 60-100 RMB) to obtain a daily free transaction quota - Energy Leasing: Idle energy can be leased through third-party platforms, with daily returns as high as 0.8%-1.5%, far exceeding traditional financial products - Transaction Cost Advantage: TRON transaction fee is only 0.000005 TRX per transaction (approximately 0.000001 USD), about 100,000 times lower than Ethereum, making high-frequency small transactions profitable
2. Stablecoin Circulation: The world's largest USDT transfer station
- 93% of TRON traffic comes from stablecoin transfers, with an average daily USDT transaction exceeding 18 million, forming a huge liquidity pool - Cross-Border Arbitrage: Profit by utilizing the exchange rate differences between local currencies and USDT in different regions, through low-cost and fast transfers on TRON (especially suitable for regions with high inflation such as Latin America and Southeast Asia) - Stablecoin Deposit Returns: Stake USDT in DeFi protocols like JustLend, with annual returns of 8%-15%, far exceeding bank deposits $ETH
After 2026, the regulations will be so strict that buying and selling USDT will freeze accounts? If you haven't made any money, you can't play anymore? $ETH
NBA betting, how bookmakers manipulate odds and maximize profits. They often combine event information with betting strategies to design tactics, specifically:
1. Using timeouts to manipulate the odds: For example, former Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups once used timeouts and other tactics to discreetly control the odds. He would connect to betting markets through offshore accounts and even leaked player rotation information in advance. The FBI discovered that for every game the Trail Blazers lost, his related company earned $800,000. Even in the final moments, when the score difference is large, timeouts can create suspense in the game. At this time, bookmakers can use the timeout signals to guide the odds fluctuations, for instance, moving the odds in the opposite direction of what most bettors expect. Once the funds start to flow in, they let the already controlled game direction lead to losses for the bettors. 2. Adjusting the odds to guide betting: This is a common basic operation used by bookmakers. For example, using the tactic of "raising the odds to attract deep betting," they intentionally raise the threshold for strong teams, creating a false impression of strength to attract a large amount of betting from players; or "lowering the odds while raising the payout," like when a strong team is favored by half a goal but the odds drop to a draw while increasing the payout, creating the illusion of instability for the strong team, enticing players to bet on the weak team. Even if the game results align with the team's strength, the bookmaker can still profit handsomely from the odds settings. 3. Precise control of the odds using insider information: Bookmakers often bribe coaches, team doctors, and other insiders to obtain information. For instance, player Terry Rozier once leaked his injury and participation status to the bookmaker in advance, allowing them to precisely adjust the odds, resulting in over ten million dollars in profit for the bookmaker from just two operations. Abnormal timeouts may also be in conjunction with this insider information, using timeouts to convey signals, making the odds changes more misleading. Once players are misled into betting, the bookmaker can reap the funds. 4. Planning ahead with referee data: Bookmakers will statistically analyze the past officiating patterns of referees in advance and even predict referee selections, allowing odds changes to be ahead of the official announcements by a few minutes. Even a last-minute timeout can coordinate with referee decisions, such as a biased call favoring one side after a timeout, changing key odds results like small score differences. These few minutes are enough for the bookmaker to guide billions of dollars in flow and maximize profits. #NBA
The experiences of friends around author Liu Yi: A friend's imtoken wallet, which contained tens of thousands of dollars, was wiped out overnight. Initially, there was suspicion of a mnemonic phrase leak or clicking on a phishing link, but the friend had a high risk awareness and ruled out these possibilities. Later, through investigation, it was discovered that the friend downloaded a fake imtoken wallet from a phishing website while searching for the imtoken official website on Baidu, which led to the theft of assets. Even more absurdly, even if one enters the real official website, they could still be susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks at the carrier level, where malicious packages could be implanted, resulting in asset loss.
Currently, 80% of virtual currency assets are stolen, not due to user operational errors, but because they fell into the hackers' trap starting from downloading the fake wallet.
1. Do not search for the official website to download wallet software through search engines.
2. Download software from official stores, such as the Apple App Store.
3. Treat any notifications about wallet upgrades, new versions, or bug fixes as viruses and ignore them.
How to deal with those who run away after scamming
Xuan Ge: What do big shots in the cryptocurrency circle fear the most after they run away? It's not the police; it's another group of people. Because there are people who scare them even more than the police. These people are called overseas debt collectors, who specialize in helping those who have been scammed to recover debts abroad. How big is this industry? Last year alone, there were more than 8,000 victims seeking their help, involving amounts exceeding 30 billion. These debt collection companies are now becoming industrialized, and some even have stock codes on NASDAQ. The charging standard is very simple: they take 40% of the money recovered, and if they can't recover it, they charge nothing. With this model, one company in the industry made over 2 billion last year. Do you know what's the craziest part? Now even venture capitalists are starting to invest in this industry. Sequoia Capital invested in a company specializing in cross-border debt collection last year, with a valuation of 500 million USD.

After the October 11 incident, the scale of withdrawals by many small and medium-sized market makers far exceeded that of top institutions.
Small and medium-sized market makers generally rely on high leverage of 5-20 times to maintain liquidity, while top institutions (such as Wintermute) usually keep their leverage ratio within 3 times. When the Bitcoin price plummeted by 70% within 20 minutes, the long positions of small and medium-sized institutions were quickly forced to liquidate. For example, a small and medium-sized market maker held a long position of 8 million USD in XPL at HyperLiquid, which was liquidated due to insufficient margin, causing its net asset value to instantly drop to zero. In contrast, top institutions like Wintermute control losses to within 5% of total capital through diversified holdings (such as holding BTC, ETH, and stablecoins simultaneously) and real-time risk management.
richerman: You will understand the x402 protocol in 5 minutes. The user makes a request to the AI, 'Use my wallet to help me buy a pair of jeans online.' After receiving the request, the AI initiates the purchase, and the store constructs a preliminary transaction that includes the wallet address to be used, the chain to be used, the currency, and the amount. The AI then sends this transaction to the x402 protocol validator to check whether the corresponding wallet on the corresponding chain has sufficient assets, whether the goods are tradable, and whether the user has confirmed authorization. The transaction is then completed. 1. What is the x402 protocol? First of all, the x402 protocol is a payment protocol centered around 'machines and APIs'. Traditional payment protocols are 'human-centered', to give a relatable example:
$币安人生 For me, a wonderful 币安人生 isn’t just about watching numbers grow in a wallet—it’s a warm, dynamic journey woven with growth, connection, and shared purpose, rooted in Binance’s core values but filled with personal, tangible joys.
More than that, it’s the feeling of belonging to a group that “gets it.” It’s joining weekend online chats where we break down industry news in simple terms, or helping a newcomer figure out their first wallet setup—no jargon, just patience. Once, I even teamed up with a few community friends to create a short guide for beginners, and seeing people say it helped them feel less scared of crypto? That’s 币安人生’s heart: we don’t just “be in the community”—we build it, together.
It’s also about staying curious, not stuck. When the market dips or new tech (like a new layer-2 solution) pops up, 币安人生 doesn’t make me panic or ignore change. Instead, I jump into Binance’s educational workshops, ask questions in forums, and even try small, low-risk experiments to learn. That willingness to adapt—without losing sight of what matters—feels like growing with the crypto world, not just watching it pass by.
And finally, it’s the balance between rationality and warmth. I track my investments carefully, but I also celebrate small wins with the community—like when our group’s favorite project hits a milestone, or when someone shares how crypto helped them reach a personal goal (like saving for a trip). 币安人生, to me, is when financial growth walks hand in hand with spiritual fulfillment: I’m not just building wealth—I’m building a life where I learn, connect, and feel proud of the part I play in this big, innovative space.
This is the wonderful 币安人生 I imagine: not perfect, but full of purpose—for me, and for everyone in this community who’s willing to show up, learn, and care.#币安人生
Signals and Noise: The repeated crash events are actually a blatant transfer of wealth by the elite, yet many people still do not notice this...
On Saturday morning, 30 minutes before Trump announced the news of a 100% tariff increase on China, a giant whale accurately shorted Bitcoin and Ethereum on the Hyperliquid platform, ultimately earning nearly two hundred million dollars.
To put it nicely, the elite hold the vast majority of information and resources that ordinary people do not have; to put it more harshly, this is blatant insider trading.
The top core circle relies on insider information, opens positions in advance, and after the news ferments, they take profits and leave, making a fortune; The vast majority of ordinary retail investors become the ones left holding the bag, either being liquidated out or forced to panic sell.
However, just 48 hours later, after Trump's TACO maneuver, the plundered market returned to its original state, and capital continued to play music and dance, with basically no change compared to a few days ago.
The only thing that changed is the wallets of countless retail investors that have been reduced to zero. Wealth has once again completed a large-scale transfer.
I think this capital game has happened countless times in history, but during the Trump era, it is especially vividly reflected, without any disguise, directly harvesting.
As ordinary retail investors, we have neither the resources and insider knowledge nor the ability to change the rules of the game. The big capital players behind this are simply repeating the process of pumping and dumping, understand?
Artificial intelligence has become the new global arms race, and capital expenditures will ultimately be paid by the government. If you want to understand why the prices of gold, silver, and Bitcoin have skyrocketed, it is because governments around the world are printing a large amount of money to support this AI competition, leading to currency devaluation. Has anyone calculated how many nuclear power plants the United States will need to build to provide electricity for all these daily 'self-indulgent' AI transactions by 2028?"
Musk commented: "This is why Bitcoin is energy-based: you can issue fake fiat currency, and every government in history has done this, but energy cannot be forged."
1. Initially claimed 100% unlock at TGE, now requires forced staking and only allows 10% share.
First, they trick you in, then they threaten you.
2. KYC is quite normal, but a fee of 5U? The KYC platform takes a cut first, then the project takes a cut again.
3. Not only are there widespread witch hunts in the project, many community members report that the more they do, the less they get, and the distribution is completely random. They use a small amount of tokens to fool the community, then share the spoils internally.
With a ranking of over 600, staking over 1000U, and only about 500 mainnet interaction records, inexplicable witch hunts; the more you do, the harsher the witch hunts become. They even collaborate with Gitcoin, and you can only get tokens after KYC, this trash platform charges at least 5U, clearly directing traffic. #Recall #空投大毛 #空投分享

One of the key drivers of the market crash holds over 100,000 BTC, Through the combination operation of "selling BTC → staking ETH → shorting BTC", it both smashed the market on the spot side and amplified the shorting forces on the derivatives side, directly triggering panic selling in the market.
Garrett Jin's past participation in platforms (BitForex) and projects (Hash.com) has involved compliance controversies.
The over 570,000 ETH obtained from selling BTC has been concentrated in the Beacon staking contract for staking, the relevant ETH staking contract was deployed by wallet 0xCB7B54……952E9, and the initial funds of that wallet came from the BSC chain's ereignis.eth address. The address that placed a $735 million BTC short order previously received fees from wallet 0x52d361……163E1, and that address has financial transactions with the Binance wallet (depositing $4.1 million USDC), more crucially, it transferred $40,000 USDT to ereignis.eth two weeks ago, directly linking to whale operations.
Investigations found that the ereignis.eth address is associated with a second ENS name garrettjin.eth, pointing to X platform user @GarrettBullish, which is Garrett Jin himself. Graduated from Boston University with a degree in economics in 2008, he interned at China Construction Bank, and founded Da Yo Trading (HK) in 2012, later entering the crypto space.
From 2017 to 2020, he served as the CEO of BitForex exchange, which was warned by the Japanese Financial Services Agency (FSA) for inflating trading volumes and operating without a license. In 2024, it was attacked due to a hot wallet private key leak, resulting in over $57 million being withdrawn, ultimately closing and being investigated by the police. During the BitForex crash, he founded Wavelabs VC (2020-2023), initiated projects like @tangiblepay (stablecoin), @lotabee (cross-chain DEX, closed in 2024), @grouptalk.ai (Web3 social protocol), among which Hash.com (founded in 2024) is an ETH staking platform, but the source of its staked ETH funds has raised controversies.
His BTC funds can be traced back to suspicious withdrawals from platforms such as HTX (Huobi), OKX, and Binance 7-8 years ago, and are linked to funds that flowed out during the BitForex scandal, suggesting that some of the funds may come from early exchange “black market” activities or stolen user assets.
