Vechain's staking architecture has changed. @vechainofficial StarGate is live, marking the network’s pivot from passive infrastructure to user-directed participation. [Progress overview] ↓

I want to believe. My words = my positions. Big move here to make InfoFi fair.

Who's driving this altseason? ↓ Btw, last week we saw the largest weekly inflows on record, totaling US$4.39B. This surpasses the previous peak of US$4.27B, set after the US election in December 2024. Source: @CoinSharesCo

Let’s talk about storage. Not the kind you buy on AWS. The kind that doesn’t go down, doesn’t censor, and doesn’t silently rewrite your files. Meet @walrusprotocol: the next breakout layer in the @SuiNetwork stack.

There are a five opinion leader archetypes on CT right now: 1. KOL as an InfoFi Farmer No classic paid ads—just nonstop shilling of Kaito/Cookie projects and farming events like Yapio, Loudio, etc. 2. KOL as a Business A blend of organic (research, insights) and sponsored content. Reputation still matters here → high-quality data even in promos, plus visible DD. 3. KOL as a Service Will promote whatever they’re paid to—memecoins, infra, GameFi, you name it. 90% of their engagement is botted. 4. KOL as a Marketing Funnel Usually has a primary business (agency, tool, or protocol) and uses their X presence as a funnel for that core operation. 5. KOL as a Journeyman Rare post-30K. Genuinely documents their learning and exploration. Still monetizes via KOL deals (investments, ambassadorships), but content stays personal. Anything I missed?

🟢 Daily Top Crypto Gainer – July 23 @FlareNetworks $FLR | +25.3% (24h) | $0.0264 Why It’s Pumping: Flare is surging on SparkDEX’s SPRK token hype, USDT0-fueled DeFi boom, and a breakout above key resistance. Key Drivers: • SPRK TGE: Launches July 29, driving $90M TVL (+650% since USDT0 integration). • USDT0 Adoption: Tether’s omnichain stablecoin now 63% of stablecoin liquidity. • Staking & Burns: 70% FLR staked, 66M burned = tightening float. • Volume Spike: 407% jump confirms breakout above $0.025. Technical Setup: • RSI: 72 (bullish but not overheated) • Volume: $86M (highest in months), MACD rising Conclusion: Flare’s rally is riding DeFi expansion and SPRK anticipation. With staking, burns, and volume on its side, momentum is strong, but watch July 29 and XRPFi launch to confirm longer-term legs.

My <$100m Market Cap Tokens Tier List 🧵 Bull 🐂 @MagicNewton $NEWT: A bet on AI automation + a maturing AI on-chain infrastructure. It's still trading ~60 % below its June ATH, lots of room to run. @Chromia $CHR: Relational L1 with lots of bullish triggers coming (physical AI, DB integration). Up ~50 % in the past month + fully vested. @WalletConnect $WCT: Product with strong PMF and rising revenue. Underwent a correction and broke out of the range now. @peaq $PEAQ: A bet on DePIN narrative. The price has been consolidating and is now making higher highs. @nillionnetwork $NIL: I'm betting on Nillion to win the privacy race with their "blind computer" vision. Strong community + bullish TA. Crab 🦀 @Sagaxyz_ $SAGA: The tech is promising, and they have great yield opportunities through their Liquidity Layer. It's down bad from ATH and unlikely to trade near it again. @humafinance $HUMA: The PayFi narrative is strong and has potential with stablecoin adoption. But I don't like the float and tokenomics, risk of lots of sell pressure. @AvailProject $AVAIL: Big ambitions in modular DA, but the price action isn't following the market. But I still believe in the team. @sparkdotfi $SPK: It's a yield hub for stablecoins with big potential. I'm concerned about tokenomics and increased competition in this niche. Bear 🐻 @Humanityprot $H: The proof-of-identity narrative seems still in the infant phase for me. The tech has fundamental problems and needs improvements. @QuaiNetwork $QUAI: It has failed to gain meaningful adoption or developer traction. The market is realizing that, and the price is stagnating. @zora $ZORA: The 'coin that' thing seems like an artificially inflated narrative by the Base team. A memecoin-style playbook. @Scroll_ZKP $SCR: Questionable tokenomics + overcrowded L2 narrative. It's fundamentally weak with virtually no activity and use cases. What did I miss?
