Trading when you're bored is one of the easiest ways to lose money

-> Hop online
-> Assess overall volume
-> If its ass don't try to force an opportunity
-> If its good, lock in

Always aim to *ideally* trade during high volume, that's when you have the best odds

Lower your expectations

You can't start off expecting to turn $1k into $1m

When you have these high expectations, you're just going to continuously round trip your gains by chasing instead of taking profit

I know you keep seeing 7 fig pnls on the timeline, but you have to learn to block out that noise

Set small goals along the way, and celebrate the little wins

One step at a time, you'll make it

Will Ethereum remain institutions' top choice?

jonahrobrts breaks down the blockchain competition for TradFi's attention πŸ€Όβ€β™‚οΈ

========================================

Disruption. Digitization. Financial inclusion. Future-proofing.

What do all of these oft-repeated buzzwords have in common? They’ve all been used by crypto-pilled associates at TradFi firms to pitch their bosses on the exciting upside of blockchain tech. This year, it seems, the executives are listening.

Institutions jumped into crypto more headlong than ever in 2024. Their moves are starting to bridge the gap between TradFi and DeFi. However, this article isn’t focused on why firms are building onchain. Instead, we are focusing on where these funds are choosing to build.

----------------------------

What’s Happening on Ethereum?
Ethereum is the world’s largest smart-contract blockchain network. It has secured over $90 billion in RWAs, including stablecoins. 2024 has been a big year for the adoption of non-stablecoin RWAs on Ethereum as well, with the network growing its onchain U.S. treasuries, bonds, and cash equivalents from $800 million to over $1 .5 billion and overall non-stablecoin RWA value to $2 .9 billion.

Some of the major players building on Ethereum this year include
Visa, BlackRock and FTI_US

Earlier this month, Visa announced that they are building the Visa Tokenized Asset Platform (VTAP) on Ethereum. This is the company’s biggest step toward crypto adoption thus far. VTAP enables Visa to issue and manage fiat-backed tokens on Ethereum. It is intended to be a sandbox for participating financial institutional partners to create and experiment with fiat-backed tokens. They expect to begin piloting the platform with Spanish multinational bank BBVA in 2025. While the VTAP program is certainly an experiment, it gives credit to the thesis that TradFi will migrate its operations onto Ethereum over the coming decades.

----------------------------

Yet, the success of Ethereum’s competitors highlights a critical point: institutions are no longer bound to a single network. While Ethereum is foundational, blockchains like Solana and Stellar provide alternatives that are increasingly hard to ignore. However, they also present novel interoperability concerns.

Interoperability is central to the future of institutional blockchain adoption. As Visa states in their VTAP press release announcement, the largest benefits of building onchain include easy integration, programmability, and interoperability. Institutions that venture onto non-EVM chains like Solana or Stellar may face challenges in asset liquidity and protocol compatibility. This can lead to reliance on third-party services to bridge assets between chains, which introduces complexity and security risks. Ethereum’s widespread use means that staying within the EVM ecosystemβ€”whether through Ethereum or Layer 2 solutionsβ€”remains the simplest and most secure option for institutions.

----------------------------

However, for Ethereum to maintain its lead in the race toward institutional adoption, it must continue to balance world-class security and stability with the performance and scalability that competing chains continue to push. The race to capture the attention of institutional finance will be won by the network that can not only meet today’s demands but also anticipate the needs of tomorrow. Ethereum is well-positioned for now, but staying on top will require constant evolution.

🚨 Global liquidity is increasing, meaning that major central banks are starting to inject money into the global financial system.

πŸ‘‰ This influx of liquidity is important because it increases interest in risky assets, notably #Bitcoin and #cryptomonnaies .

πŸ‘‰ Historically, when there is an increase in overall liquidity, investors tend to place their money in more volatile assets, such as #Bitcoin .

πŸ‘‰ As in 2013, 2017 and 2020, an increase in overall liquidity coincided with the #BullRuns .

It is clear that global liquidity levels play a crucial role. Sure, there are 4-year cycles related to halving and elections, but the market is primarily driven by global liquidity.

It’s all connected. πŸ”—

The AI x Crypto narrative is on a tear and
bittensor_
's $TAO token is leading the way πŸš€

Here's why πŸ‘‡

======================

As one of the most prominent projects in this space, Bittensor is positioning itself as the project to watch.

At its core, Bittensor is pushing a new frontier: creating a decentralized network where AI models can be trained and shared in a way that aligns incentives for both developers and users.

As the subnet limit is progressively expanded β€” and eventually removed altogether β€” the potential for exponential growth within the Bittensor ecosystem becomes clear. More subnets mean more AI models, more collaboration, and more growth for the ecosystem.

Crucially, all this activity increases demand for TAO itself. Since TAO is required to acquire any subnet token, the introduction of dTAO could further fuel its demand, making Bittensor even more attractive to investors.

TAO’s Halving in 2025
Bittensor is approaching its first halving event, slated for late 2025. Much like Bitcoin’s halving cycles, this event will cut the rate at which new TAO tokens are emitted by half.

Currently, the Bittensor network emits 1 TAO as block rewards (7,200 TAO daily) which are distributed among miners, validators, subnet owners, and delegators. However, when the halving occurs (triggered when 10.5 million TAO are in circulation), this emission will be halved to 0.5 TAO per block, reducing the daily supply of new TAO entering the market.

Why does this matter? When the supply of TAO is cut, it introduces scarcity. In any market, reduced supply with steady or rising demand (thanks to increasing subnets and introduction of dTAO) can only lead in one direction: upward.

Now let’s take a look at the macro level things happening in the world of AI that are considered positive for AI x crypto projects like Bittensor.

Issues with OpenAI
OpenAI is at a crossroads. Recently, news broke that OpenAI is transitioning from a non-profit control to a for-profit benefit corporation. Following this restructuring, the company’s valuation has soared to over $150 billion and they’ve raised $6 .6 billion in fresh funding.

Additionally, there’s been recent departures of key executives, including Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati and two other senior executives, raising concerns about potential internal issues.

Nonetheless, there is a broad regulatory squeeze on AI from various jurisdictions worldwide. The fact that centralized AI is subject to regulatory control highlights a fundamental flaw: it's too easy to control.

When a few large companies hold the keys to centralized AI, they become prime targets for government pressure and censorship. This is where decentralized AI platforms, like Bittensor, have the advantage. They cannot be shut down or censored by any single entity, as no one entity controls it.

Closing Thoughts
There’s a lot going right for Bittensor, and the rising token price is just the cherry on top. With existing momentum, the upcoming updates mentioned above, potential EVM support, and ongoing community development – such as the rapid integration of NousResearch’s breakthrough in distributed training into Bittensor – these are all strong indicators of Bittensor’s promise.

In a world where centralized AI is increasingly regulated, censored, and driven by profit motives, Bittensor offers a compelling alternative: a decentralized, community-driven approach that thrives on collaboration, innovation, and shared incentives. And that’s why it’s worth keeping an eye on.

At Solana Breakpoint 2024, Charles d’Haussy, CEO of the dYdX Foundation, discussed the protocols’s upcoming enhancements and muse on Solana’s growth.

While dYdX, one of the crypto industry’s oldest decentralized perpetual exchanges, runs its own sovereign appchain, the platform recently integrated Solana-based assets into its platform.

The move brought greater exposure to a wealth of Solana ecosystem tokens, allowing dYdX traders to express their opinion on assets like $SOL , $JUP , and $WIF .

Drawing on his rich experience in the industry, d’Haussy made fascinating remarks about Solana culture.

Solana Builder Energy
When dYdX governance moved to include more Solana-based assets via a Raydium integration in June, d’Haussy and the dYdX were hesitant to approach the Solana community.

β€œWhen we started to reach out to the Solana ecosystem, I was kind of cautious and trying to be gentle, not knowing exactly how we would be welcome for conversations about possible integration”

From an outside perspective, blockchain tribalism formed a perceived barrier to entry. Chain maximalism is a serious obstacle within the industry, which is further exacerbated by obstinate and outspoken communities on social media.

Fortunately, away from the noise and distractions of social media, the teams actually building these ecosystems are eager to collaborate and push the collectively push the industry forward. d’Haussy remarked that the Solana Foundation was welcoming and receptive to working alongside teams from alternative ecosystems in the pursuit of progress.

β€œWe were really warmly welcomed. I think the Solana ecosystem has showed us, you want to connect to the Solana ecosystem and bring more mindshare to the Solana ecosystem via your own chain? How can we help you?… The Solana Foundation has been extremely welcoming, connecting us to plenty of people. And the builders were also very welcoming.”

β€œSometimes Twitter makes you think that this is all tribes and they look at each other from afar. But the reality is the real builders and the people which are in the industry long enough and for the long term, they are very friendly and they want to grow the cake for everyone.”

Additionally, d’Haussy asserted that β€œSolana is like Ethereum five years ago”, highlighting the energy and hunger shown by developers building innovative products. The CEO drew comparisons between the atmosphere of week’s earlier Token 2049 conference and Solana Breakpoint.

β€œWe are just out of three days of Token 2049, which is much more salesy and marketing and towards trading activities, which is really the audience of DYDX. So, that was perfect, we had a blast over there. Suddenly, you wake up the next morning and you're going to Solana Breakpoint.”

β€œIt's a bit of a shock for me because suddenly we are surrounded by devs. So, there is this kind of change of seasons overnight between the projects and the business development atmosphere of Token 2049 and here the business, the atmosphere of building here at Solana.”

Blockchain tribalism is a regrettable obstacle, but easily overcome. As evidenced by dYdX and the Solana, teams from different chains can always find ways to work together in a way that benefits both parties and further advances the space.

PayPal, one of the world’s largest financial platforms, continues its mission to deliver blockchain-based services to users and businesses alike.

On September 25, 2024, PayPal announced it would be enabling U.S. merchants to buy, hold, and sell cryptocurrency assets within their business accounts. The move is the latest in a slew of updates made by PayPal as the TradFi giant continues to embrace the cryptocurrency industry.

U.S. Businesses Can Now Store Funds Onchain
Following the successful launch of crypto services for individual users, PayPal remarked that businesses were eager to meet user’s growing demand for more comprehensive crypto services.

"Since we launched the ability for PayPal and Venmo consumers to buy, sell, and hold cryptocurrency in their wallets, we have learned a lot about how they want to use their cryptocurrency… Business owners have increasingly expressed a desire for the same cryptocurrency capabilities available to consumers. We're excited to meet that demand by delivering this new offering, empowering them to engage with digital currencies effortlessly." - Jose Fernandez da Ponte, Senior Vice President of Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, and Digital Currencies, PayPal.

PayPal’s commitment to providing merchants with expanded crypto services and flexibility goes beyond buying and selling digital assets. Merchants can now withdraw cryptocurrencies to external onchain wallets.

While PayPal has stipulated that this feature will be limited to β€œeligible” wallets, the move also opens the door to more businesses becoming involved in DeFi. For example, businesses holding capital might be able to lend out assets in various onchain lending protocols, earning additional yield on a merchant’s treasury.

$PYUSD Solana Supply Down 40% Since ATH
Since launching on Solana on May 29, 2024, $PYUSD enjoyed meteoric growth. Spurred on by generous liquidity provision incentives, $PYUSD’s Solana-based supply surged to over 663.4M tokens based on Step Finance data. This eclipsed Ethereum’s $PYUSD supply, making Solana the unofficial home of PayPal’s crypto services.

However, as $PYUSD reward campaigns have slowed and market conditions improved, the supply of PayPal USD on Solana has declined. At its highest point on August 28, 2024, Solana hosted $PYUSD 65.79% supply dominance.

Based on DeFiLlama data, that figure has since fallen to just 50.4%, with PayPal USD’s Solana-based supply currently sitting at 354M.

It's unlikely that PayPal merchants based in the U.S. will rush to bring their stablecoin holdings onchain and deploy them in Solana DeFi protocols. However, the move highlights PayPal’s willingness to respond positively to customer feedback and integrate blockchain technology into its expansive product suite.

's new mobile shooter -- FTW πŸ”«πŸ‘‡

========================================
jungle_xyz’s FTW is a fast-paced mobile shooter where players can play casually or win real rewards by competing in tournaments and PVP wagering matches.

While FTW has multiple ways to playβ€”Free-for-Alls, Team Deathmatches, and Extractions (akin to capture the flag)β€”its main mode is Showdown, where 10 players face off in a 3-minute Battle Royale. Here, players spawn with randomized load-outs of different heroes, weapons, and gadgets and can respawn during the first 2 minutes, battling to rack up points and buffs.

After this, the playing zone starts closing and respawns are disabled until the last player standing claims victory. Along the way, players can pick up new weapons and equipment scattered across the map. These come in four rarity levels: White, Blue, Purple, and Yellow, each offering increased power for an edge as the match progresses.
βš”οΈ Qualifiers (Mon-Fri): During weekdays, you can play Showdown matches for free and collect points to prepare for the weekend Finals. This mode helps you accumulate upgrades, currencies, and tickets, which will be crucial for weekend competition.

πŸŽ–Finals (Sat-Sun): The weekend Finals require one ticket per match, and only these games count toward the leaderboard for prizes. Players can win $USDC , $SOL , in-game rewards, and whitelist spots for Jungle’s Genesis mint β€” though you must connect your wallet and Discord to be eliglible.

Additionally, there is a Monthly Leaderboard on FTW’s Jungle Discord, where your Finals scores accumulate throughout the month. Players who perform well can qualify for boosted rewards.

How to Get Started:

Additional Features:

🎯 Auto-Aim: FTW lets you choose between manual and auto-aim in its settings. While it may burn through your bullets, personally I’d recommend auto.

πŸ’₯ Hero Ultimates: Each hero has a unique ultimate ability like airstrikes, poison gas, or shock blasts, which charges up as the match goes on and you rack up more stats.

🧰 Hero and Weapon Upgrades: XP will be earned as you play, alongside crates offering unique boosts which can be used to upgrade your heroes and weapons, increasing traits like their resilience, precision, and speed.

How to Earn:

FTW’s tournaments are where the money’s made, and these events are split into Qualifiers and Finals:

πŸ“² Download FTW: The game is available on the iOS App Store and Google Play in early access worldwide.

βœ… Sign Up: Once downloaded, create your account through your email or Google.

πŸ”— Link Your Account: To qualify for rewards, join the Jungle Discord and complete your profile under the profile channel by linking your FTW account (a code will be provided in the app) and Solana wallet.

πŸ† Join Tournaments: Participate in weekly Qualifiers to earn points, and use tickets to join the weekend Finals for a shot at the prizes.

And that's all it takes to get started here!

With mobile games feeling ripe for crypto adoption by augmenting their casual gameplay with onchain rewards, Jungle looks to be flying under the radar as a studio to watch.

Move quickly, though! The last Qualifiers for this first β€œPlay-to-Mint” tournament end on September 27th, though we can expect more down the line.

Jupiter, a leading decentralized exchange (DEX) on Solana, made a series of major announcements today at Solana Breakpoint 2024, the Solana ecosystem's largest annual conference. These updates include the acquisition of SolanaFM, the second-largest explorer on Solana, and Coinhall, the leading aggregator across Cosmos.

Co-founder Siong delivered a keynote address outlining the ambitious roadmap ahead for Jupiter.

Metropolis API Platform
Building on the foundation of Jupiter's existing APIs (Swap, Tokens, and Price APIs), the Metropolis API Platform makes it easier for developers to integrate with all of Solana's liquidity and build sustainable businesses. Anyone with an internet connection can leverage these APIs to streamline development and create innovative applications on Solana.

Jupiter RFQ
Deepening liquidity on Solana by connecting market makers directly to Jupiter's routing engine. This innovative feature allows market makers who primarily use exchanges like Binance to easily provide liquidity on Solana, ensuring that Jupiter consistently offers the best prices.

Jupiter Perps V2

Perps V2 is a significant upgrade from its predecessor, offering a richer feature set, competitive fees, and unmatched reliability. This new version introduces limit orders, a revamped Doves oracle for enhanced pricing accuracy, and gasless transactions, ensuring a seamless and cost-effective trading experience.

With Perps V2, traders can benefit from the convenience of limit orders, the reliability of the Dove oracle, and the efficiency of gasless transactions, all backed by $600 million in JLP liquidity. This combination makes Solana the most compelling platform for perpetual contracts.

Jupiter Mobile
Jupiter Mobile is poised to revolutionize how people interact with Solana by offering a frictionless and intuitive user experience. It simplifies the onboarding process, making Solana accessible to everyone regardless of their technical expertise. Users can easily connect their existing wallets or use popular payment methods like Apple Pay, Google Pay, or credit cards. Additionally, Jupiter Mobile eliminates the need for complex seed phrases, making it easy for new users to get started.

The platform also offers zero platform fees, ensuring that users can enjoy cost-effective transactions without worrying about hidden charges. With its 1-tap swap feature, users can effortlessly swap tokens with just a single click, streamlining the trading process.

Ape Pro: Taking on Pump.fun
Jupiter is now making moves to capture the meme coin market by taking on the popular Pump.fun, a no-code meme coin creation platform.

Ape Pro, a massive upgrade to the existing Ape platform, is set to make meme coins fun again on Solana. It will offer a powerful, mobile-friendly trading suite that supports social logins and an easy-to-use token creation experience.

Ape Pro stands out from its competitors, such as Pump.fun, by offering lower trading fees, a seamless mobile experience, faster transactions with Google login, and a robust token creation process. With a competitive 0.5% trading fee, Ape Pro provides a cost-effective solution for traders. Its mobile optimization ensures a smooth and efficient experience on the go, while Google login simplifies the onboarding process, eliminating the need for complex seed phrases. Additionally, Ape Mint, a feature within Ape Pro, allows users to easily mint new tokens, lock liquidity for project credibility, and earn perpetual swap fees, creating a sustainable revenue stream and combatting the current PVP model in the meme coin ecosystem.

Acquisitions Signal Growth and Ambition
Jupiter's acquisition of SolanaFM, a critical infrastructure provider for the Solana ecosystem, underscores the company's commitment to strengthening it. This move will enable Jupiter to leverage SolanaFM's world-class data infrastructure to enhance its platform further.
