My strategy to farm perps airdrops This post covers my farming strategy for 2 airdrops I expect to be massive. I explain how you can farm perps DEXs even if you're not a trader. Check it out: thedefinvestor.com/p/my-stra…

3 relatively big so-called stablecoins lost their peg this week • xUSD • deUSD • USDX Rough week for DeFi. Not every token with USD in its name is actually stable. Stay safe out there.

Crypto Watchlist for the week ahead: $LINK - Chainlink Rewards Season 1, via which LINK stakers will get airdrops, starts on Nov. 11 $MNT - Tokenized equities will soon launch on Mantle in partnership with Backed and Bybit $INJ - Injective's Altria Upgrade, one of its biggest upgrades so far, will go live on Nov. 11 $XRP - A spot XRP ETF is rumored to launch next week $S - Flying Tulip ICO is likely to start soon, as its accredited investor quiz went live $ADA - Cardano Summit will start on Nov. 12 $LDO - Lido Finance's token holder update is coming on Nov. 11 $HUMA - Huma Finance will launch automated looping for PST soon Macro events - U.S. CPI data will be released on Nov. 13 If you enjoyed reading this, a like and a repost would be appreciated🫡

Lighter is killing it. On top of surpassing Hyperliquid in daily trading volume, it also reached $167M in annualized revenue. A lot of people are underestimating how massive perps DEX airdrops will be.

There are some amazing yield opportunities in DeFi right now Here are a few of the top ones: 1) eUSX liquidity provision on @ExponentFinance - 32% APR on stablecoins and points for the Solstice airdrop 2) @paradex Gigavault - 39% APR on USDC from market-making strategies and trading fees. This vault also earns you Paradex points 3) USDai liquidity provision on @pendle_fi - 32% APR on stablecoins and points that will enable you to participate in the future USDai ICO 4) @PortaltoBitcoin USDC vault - 40% fixed APR on USDC in the form of PTB token rewards. The only catch here is that if you deposit USDC in this one, your capital will be locked until Jan. 28. But for me, it is worth it given the 40% APR There are many other yield opportunities, but those seem to me the best ones in terms of risk/reward. If you enjoy this content, follow me for more:)

One thing I love to see lately is that many dApps are launching buyback programs and focusing on revenue generation. TVL, daily active users, and TPS are useless metrics if the project doesn't generate any revenue. DeFi is finally becoming sustainable.

Pendle is the only top 3 DeFi project by mindshare across all recent timeframes (90d, 30d, 7d, 2d and 1d). What's interesting is that its team also recently hinted at a potential $PENDLE tokenomics upgrade.

The 4 stages of a bull market: 1) "I just want my money back" 2) "A mini altseason may finally happen" 3) "I am rich! Idk how you all do that 9 to 5 thing" 4) "Is $10M enough to retire?"

Absolutely love to see this chart. Hyperliquid has more mindshare on CT than Coinbase and Bybit combined according to Kaito. It's only a matter of time until DeFi surpasses CeFi in popularity.

Tokenized equities are coming to Mantle. Together with @Bybit_Official and @BackedFi, millions of users will soon be able to access top tokenized equities via @xStocksFi onchain and 24/7 - from NVDAx & AAPLx to MSTRx. All powered by Mantle's speed, security and scalability.

Some of my biggest crypto losses came from forcing trades. Don't buy a token you have mixed feeligs about just because you feel the need to do something. Sometimes the best move is no move. The key to outperformance is patience.

DeFi needs way more transparency. Here are a few yield-bearing stablecoin products with transparent backing: @ethena_labs's sUSDe @ResolvLabs's wstUSR @aegis_im's YUSD @USDai_Official's USDai @OpenEden_X's cUSDO @capmoney_'s stcUSD @almanak's alUSD @noon_capital's sUSN @infiniFi's iUSDe @strata_money's srUSDe @FalconStable's sUSDf @fraxfinance's frxUSD I'm surely missing a lot of protocols, but these are a few great examples. Shoutout to the teams that remain aligned with the core ethos of crypto.
