FREE TREZOR WALLET -> Following recent security issues involving Ledger, Trezor (@Trezor) launched an aggressive promotion, giving away its older hardware wallets through Jumper and CoinGecko.
🟢 JUMPER (@jumperapp) - Level 10 or higher in the Jumper Pass → You can claim a free Trezor Model T (2018). - Level 6 or higher → 40% off the Trezor Keep Metal. You only pay shipping.
🟢COINGECKO With 300 Candies, you can claim a free Trezor Model One (2014) or a Trezor Model T (2018). You only pay shipping here too. Limited stock.
Important: In both cases, the code is applied directly on Trezor’s official website. There are no intermediaries.
## Differences between the models ##
✅Trezor Model One (2014) - Monochrome OLED screen + 2 physical buttons - The PIN is entered on the computer - Micro-USB connection - Simple, well-tested design, but technologically outdated
✅Trezor Model T (2018) - Color touchscreen - PIN and recovery phrase are entered directly on the device (more secure) - Shamir Backup support (lets you split the seed into multiple parts) - microSD slot, FIDO2 support, and USB-C - Greater coin compatibility
Note: Both are older models. Trezor will continue providing security support for them until at least 2036, but they are no longer the brand’s newest devices (the current lineup is Safe).
Are you going to claim one, or would you rather wait for a newer model?

Week 12 points from @risextrade have been distributed, and things are getting interesting.
200k points distributed among just 6,239 accounts. An average of 32 points per account.
That translates to a speculative TGE value of between $160 and $620 just for being average.
The farming period is estimated to last between 52 and 60 weeks. We're in week 12 —> there are still 40 to 48 weeks to go.
In other words: get in now, and you still have almost the entire journey ahead of you to accumulate points.
There are just 6,239 users receiving points. The pie is split among very few people. The fewer people who join, the more points you can get.
As the number of users grows, the same effort will earn you less. This is the moment with the least competition.
With current Open Interest at $76M, if the AIRDROP HAPPENED TODAY, it would already be approaching the $100M FDV mark. It's still early. There's plenty of room to grow if the project continues to gain traction.
The simplest (and least painful) strategy is delta-neutral trading on indices like SPY and QQQ.
This is the moment with the greatest potential upside.

I sold part of the @Kinetiq_xyz Airdrop to recoup my investment and let the rest ride.
The good thing is that throughout the entire Airdrop claim period, the price stayed above $0.26.
At one point it was at $0.35 and reached $0.38.
In other words, claiming always left a profit on the table. I feel bad for the 30% of users who didn’t claim and left gains of between 10% and 30% on the table.
TOTAL MADNESS -> This is how far we’ve come: the official website of a hardware wallet has to show the device taken apart, piece by piece, so you can verify for yourself that they haven’t put a spy inside it.
Trust alone is no longer enough. Now you have to take the device apart with your own hands.
❌First, they attacked key generation on Coldcard. - And forced you to become an expert in entropy, seeds, and how keys are actually created.
❌Then they attacked signature vulnerabilities. - And pushed you to become an expert in security, phishing, and social engineering.
❌Then they attacked distributors’ databases and stole personal data, addresses, and purchase histories. - They forced you to become an expert in anonymity: buy in person, pay cash, disappear off the radar.
❌Now they’ve attacked the hardware itself, putting espionage systems inside the device. - This means you have to become a hardware engineer: take it apart, compare circuits, understand what’s original and what’s been tampered with.
- Every attack vector forces you to evolve. - More and more. Deeper and deeper.
It’s no longer just about protecting your keys. It’s about protecting yourself from the entire ecosystem around them.
What will the next attack vector be? Where will the next bullet come from? What else will they force you to learn so you don’t lose everything?
More than 29k users from the waitlist are already in. #Arcus is growing its user base like crazy, outpacing the rest of the perpetual DEXs.
When a DEX starts gaining traction with users, it attracts investors and money, then grows rapidly, grabbing the spotlight and becoming the biggest airdrop of its cycle.
This happened with Hyperliquid, Lighter, and Variational: they all reached the top because they attracted the most users in their cycle with a great product.
Check out ARCUS before it surpasses 50k users and becomes something huge.
EverValue was at TOKEN2049 Singapore, and they absolutely crushed it—a huge success for the project.
Two days of connecting with builders, investors, partners, and communities from around the world. So many people stopped by the booth, joined the conversations, watched Casta’s keynote, and took the time to get to know EverValue.
Many were amazed by everything that’s been built over the past two and a half years.
They distributed the first points for @arcus_xyz. In my case, I had no volume, since I have an open Season 0 position delta-neutral against ONDO, and I received 12 points.
According to the table, they could be worth: - Bearish: $500M FDV — 20% airdrop = $92 - Mid-range: $1B FDV — 25% airdrop = $230 - Bullish: $2B FDV — 30% airdrop = $553
I haven’t traded this week, so the volume showing on my card is from Season 0.
There aren’t many people in it yet. Arcus is one of the most experienced players in the DEX perps sector, and it’s on a major incentivized network, like Robinhood.
The earning codes are issued for every 1 million in volume; getting in now makes it harder than Variational was in its very early days.

We now have the ARCUS points system figured out—the big play from Robinhood alongside Lighter.
#AIRDROP
@arcus_xyz confirmed Season 1, with 250,000 points awarded weekly through at least the first half of 2027.
At 39 weeks × 250K points, that gives us approximately 9,750,000 points.
Season 0 is estimated to have distributed around 3,250,000 points.
In short, that gives us a total of 13,000,000 points to distribute across Season 0 and Season 1.
Assuming a generous airdrop of 25% of the supply, each point would be worth between $9 and $38. That depends on the duration and the FDV at which the project launches.
I think this is a great opportunity, and despite how difficult it is to get in—and especially the little to no incentive they offer content creators—the project keeps growing its metrics organically.
In Season 0, I made it into the top 700 with just $70K in smart volume.

The first Season 1 points will be distributed this Wednesday.
Polygon making fun of the situation. Don't forget:
- They switched from $MATIC to $POL . - $MATIC fell 95% from its ATH. - They switched to $POL and it's already down 92% from its ATH. - They failed with Polygon zkEVM ($250 million), which was shut down three months ago.
Today, Polymarket accounts for between 60% and 80% of total fees.
A very bad move by @Polymarket to make this post. How audacious of them.
Blast is closing out, but I'll leave you with a post from the early days.
Back in late November 2023, right in the middle of the madness of that phase. The community was unbelievably irrational: tons of people in crypto, and an insane number of views. Those were the golden days of the ecosystem.
They launched a pre-deposit, and they didn’t even have the L2 yet.
In 3–4 days, they raised more than $420 million from people. Around 52,000 users put money in, and TVL surpassed that of Base, opBNB, Starknet, Linea, Mantle, and zkSync.
What an absolutely crazy time that was.
That was the project everyone was desperate to get into, seeing the future of L2s as a new era of millionaires.
I remember posting about it and discussing it with friends and colleagues back then. By the way, I also remember John being unfairly criticized for talking about Blast.
Time flew by so fast. But we were there, folks, through all those battles during the L2 boom. We sure have plenty of battle scars to show for it.

We need to turn the page: what happened with @Kinetiq_xyz is in the past, and we're here to move forward.
Teams do what they can, however they can, and scramble to stay afloat as they go.
Projects shouldn't worry about their token or its price, because if they're good, their token will capture their value.
After the bitter taste left by this Hyperliquid project, only 2 worthwhile things remain to use right now.
1) #Hyperliquid and its HYPE token (it's the only real token that's useful and won't disappoint you). There isn't any other token on that network that's growing in a real, organic way.
2) The project that doesn't have a token but is growing incredibly fast on Hyperliquid: Entropy.
To give you an idea, it's just getting started, and its metrics are 3 to 7 times higher than Market's. Its KNTQ token has an FDV of $300 million. With the metrics just getting started at @entropyIO far surpassing Market's, we can expect something huge.
On top of that, the fees are ultra-cheap, with 50% rebates. That makes trading up to almost 6 times cheaper than it was on Market.
Entropy has a team that builds around people; as you've seen, most projects ignore people and communities.
For now, these are the only two plays I trust on Hyperliquid; everything else is just noise.
