Who is quietly making a fortune during the bear market? After the market cools down, there are really only three types of Web3 projects that can survive: first, centralized platforms that earn passive income from fees—guaranteed profit regardless of conditions; second, on-chain protocols that are actually working—perpetual DEXs, stablecoin issuers, high-frequency blockchains—relying on real revenue, not empty promises; third, crypto content creators who manage to thrive during the bear market, as attention is their wallet. When liquidity dries up, narratives are worthless—cash flow is king.

A new face has popped up on the Solana chain—$DORK token 👀
Contract address: A4RfnhcD1hk2QiVUx3TTtR7Af2RkgjvyJMcnogj9bonk
Looking at the 24-hour data, there are zero buy orders, but there was a $1 sell transaction. The liquidity pool only has $14, yet the market cap is listed as $65,912.
These numbers... emmm, judge for yourselves 🤔

The privacy sector has been quite lively recently, and there's a project issuing tokens using a sealed-bid Dutch auction.
The mechanism is actually pretty simple: you submit a bid price, and in the end, everyone settles at a unified price. Basically, it lets market sentiment determine the valuation, with fewer complicated tricks.
Personally, I'm quite bullish on this project, mainly because of the team—the founder's track record is really impressive. When people at that level do things, the reliability is usually much higher.

Alright, here's the final piece worth checking from SEI's November moves. This part digs into their RWA and institutional play—honestly might be the heaviest section of the whole month.
Why does it matter? Well, real-world asset integration and institutional partnerships aren't just buzzwords anymore. They're the actual indicators of whether a chain can break out of the retail-only bubble. SEI's been positioning itself here, and November showed some concrete steps that could shape where things go next.
Not saying it's all fireworks and moonshots. But if you're tracking which L1s are building b

The quant fund led by Liang Wenfeng, Ubiquant, has had a phenomenal year.
Here’s the data: in the first 11 months, the average return was 52%, ranking second among quant private funds, with multiple products reaching all-time high net asset values. Given this year’s market conditions, these results are truly impressive.
To be honest, quant institutions and ordinary investors aren’t even playing the same game. They have access to top-tier brokerage channels, placing orders so fast you can’t even see them; their strategies and models are endlessly varied, switching between long and short, captur

Solana network reports activity on $Ben —a PumpFun token with interesting 24-hour data:
Buy volume is $70,693, sell volume reaches $68,106. The market capitalization currently stands at $9,853, while liquidity is at zero—a typical pattern for early-stage meme coins on decentralized platforms.
The nearly balanced buyer-seller dynamic suggests initial price discovery. Such scenarios with mini-cap tokens require special caution, as lack of liquidity means extreme volatility.

Really glad to see talented builders who left a major exchange now getting back into the BNB ecosystem. These folks bring solid experience and fresh perspectives. The space thrives when skilled people keep building, regardless of where they came from. Excited to watch what they create next and how they contribute to pushing things forward here.

I stared at on-chain data so much today that my eyes went blurry and I almost forgot my real tasks.
There's a $aster trading competition on December 9th that I need to participate in. After asking around, I found out that everyone’s strategies are pretty wild—some people are just going to do nothing at all, hoping to snag first place by lying flat.
So my plan is simple: open a single position, make a quick $10 profit, then immediately lie flat. That should easily beat those who are doing absolutely nothing, right?
Flawless logic!
Turns out I’m truly a trading genius, just as the legends say.

Ever wondered what your "freedom number" actually is? That magic sum sitting in your account that lets you walk away from the grind for good?
Turns out Kevin O'Leary doesn't wonder—he's done the math. His answer? Exactly $5 million in liquid cash. Not tied up in real estate. Not locked in some illiquid venture. Cold, hard, spendable money.
Here's the thing: most folks throw out vague targets like "a few million" or "enough to be comfortable." O'Leary's different. He's drawn a line in the sand at $5M, and there's logic behind it. At that level, even conservative returns can generate serious pas

BTC dropped to around $89,000, and a bunch of coin-hoarding companies got blown up.
Metaplanet is having the worst time. In October, they still had a paper profit of over $600 million, but now they're down $530 million. Nakamoto’s average cost is above $118,000 per coin, and their unrealized loss has already exceeded $180 million. The stock price has plunged more than 95% from its peak—basically chopped all the way down to the ankles. Semler Scientific isn’t doing well either, with a cost basis of $95,000 per BTC and paper losses surpassing $50 million.
Aside from those top companies, things a

The UK's fiscal strategy unveiled November 26th hinges on one big bet: British workers and households will keep earning and spending at elevated levels. If that doesn't pan out? The Treasury could be staring down a £40 billion gap—roughly $53 billion—in public funding. That's not exactly pocket change when you're trying to balance the books.
The gamble here is pretty straightforward but risky. Tax revenues need to stay robust, which means wages can't stagnate and consumer spending can't tank. Any slowdown in either direction punches a hole straight through the fiscal forecast. And with economi

Spotted something interesting on Solana's Meteora DEX today – $QUANTAGENT showing some movement worth noting.
The 24-hour numbers paint a picture: buy-side volume hit $159,973 while sells came in at $153,845. Pretty balanced flow there. Liquidity's sitting at $31k with market cap around $147k.
Not financial advice obviously, but these liquidity-to-MC ratios always catch my eye when browsing Solana ecosystem plays. The buy/sell spread staying tight could mean accumulation phase or just organic trading – hard to tell from raw data alone.
Anyone else tracking this one? Curious what the on-chain w

JPMorgan's top executive dropped some pretty blunt takes on Europe's current state. The continent's drowning in red tape—bureaucracy's strangling innovation at every turn. It's not just a European headache either. A weakened Europe spells trouble for the US economy too, given how intertwined global markets are these days.
This isn't some abstract theory. When Europe stumbles, capital flows shift. Risk appetite changes. We've seen this play out before—2011's debt crisis, Brexit fallout, you name it. For anyone watching crypto markets, these macro currents matter more than most realize. Regulato

To put it bluntly, the public chain of a leading exchange is basically just a tool for itself, with no real intention of expanding outward.
If you look at all its actions, the core purpose is always the same—to score points for its own platform. As for those outward-facing goals? They're really just a front. What really matters are two things: Can this expand the platform's influence? Does it actually benefit the platform itself?
This approach is quite pragmatic, since in the end, the public chain ecosystem still has to serve the exchange as the main entity. Those shouting about decentralizati

I picked this up for $1—do you think it’ll blow up? I took quite a hit in yesterday’s market. But today, I’m hoping it’ll return to its real value... or at least I think so.
Well, there’s no doubt I got in at the bottom, so now it’s just a matter of waiting. It all depends on the market trend.
