A newer chain, katana ⚔️, has also been offering some solid yields in their pre-TGE campaign. Stablecoin yields are high (ETH and BTC too), and TVL in the pools is already high. Important to note, needs to be deposited for 90 days to receive the max rewards but you can withdraw

Red days suck. But... If we didn't have such extreme volatility in this industry, we wouldn't have such outsized and abundant opportunities. You have to take the good with the bad.

Another high USDC yield opportunity from an upcoming DeFAI project. Banda Almanak has an incentivized vault live as part of their pre-TGE campaign. Incentives are based on an implied $90M FDV.

Consistency is the cheat code. You don’t need to be the smartest or the luckiest. Just stick with it, even when it gets rough. Every day you stay in the game, you’re ahead of thousands who chose to quit.

AI trends are not slowing down. Searches for both agents and general AI are continuing to hit ATHs. OpenAI recently released its own agent and is expected to launch GPT-5 very soon, so the hype cycle remains very much alive. In crypto, a wave of solid projects continues to

Wait, rumours saying China banned crypto for the 50th time? I better log in and dump my tokens ASAP.

What part of the cycle is it when founders start going to space?

AI mindshare in crypto has faded, even as attention outside the space keeps rising. Combined across major categories, it has dropped significantly, despite a growing number of serious projects building and shipping real products. Will we see it run up again?

DeFi ain't dead. katana ⚔️ has broken into the top 20 chains by TVL with $450M in total deposits. Around $330M is considered productive and actively being used. Their pre-TGE campaign is gaining real traction onchain and socially, with plenty of solid yield opportunities

I shared a few high yield stablecoin opportunities here. It makes you think, everyone loves the idea of yield, but many struggle to find it, understand it, or execute properly. This is a core use case for DeFAI: hunting yields, explaining them, and automating execution. And

The biggest cheat code: Be around people who want to win and act like it. Your circle is either your edge or your excuse.

I’ve covered DeFAI extensively since Hey Anon coined the term and pushed the sector into the spotlight. It’s fantastic to see projects still growing the pie. Theoriq and INFINIT are both dominating attention in the run up to TGE. There’s still massive untapped

“Only big accounts eat on Kaito” Skill issue bro. I’ve watched many people go from zero to pulling serious weight this year. You just have to pick your spots. The Sonic Labs campaign is a great example, top ranks are mostly smaller accounts grinding hard. With Season 1 out

Something myself and I think many people struggle with when first entering the space: Feeling like you always need to be balls deep exposed to the market. But it’s okay to sit on cash. In fact, it’s empowering. You can wait for the right positions to come to you. Is less

More and more OG projects are starting to embrace Kaito. The Polygon ecosystem is the latest. Both they and Katana, a project they incubated, have active campaigns. (katana ⚔️ has proven very popular so far, with some solid yields available) Now a new one is entering with a

Huge stablecoin yield options on Silo Labs. Some are even amplified now; they’ve started rolling out an autoleverage feature for looping strategies. These are split across Sonic and Ethereum. There are also S/S and ETH/ETH pools for points/yield too.

Do what you love. If you want to stay consistent and grow an account long term. Sounds simple... obvious even. But it’s easy to fall into a loop of trying to appease people, chase engagement, and burn out. You also end up surrounded by people you’re not even in tune with.
