I’ve been building a token design tool for founders and protocol teams. Tokenomics should not just live in a spreadsheet or deck. Teams should be able to test how their initial design affects liquidity, price, demand, unlock pressure, staking incentives, and growth. The tool helps reason through: - who...

How to Figure Out Whether a Crypto Token Is Worth Its Trading Price In this episode, José Maria Macedo and Ari Paul discuss: 😱 How upcoming token unlocks are about to flood the market with higher supply than demand for a long while 👍👎 Whether VCs are extractive to token projects or not 🚀 How to design tokens for long-term growth Timestamps 🔹 00:00 Intro 🔹 01:58 Why upcoming token unlocks are creating market jitters 🔹 10:22 How the ratio of unrealized gains to market cap influences token price movements 🔹 12:22 How some token projects manipulate their reported circulating supply 🔹 20:24 Whether and how everyday investors can uncover the truth about token projects 🔹 23:37 What secondary market trading says about the potential impact of upcoming token unlocks 🔹 34:50 Why Jose believes that the current token launch strategy, despite its flaws, is still favored by insiders and unlikely to change soon 🔹 41:02 Why some projects favor decisions that are more likely to result in short-term gains over long-term success 🔹 46:36 Why Jose believes that simple time-based token unlocks often work better than complex metrics, and how projects can balance funding with realistic success metrics 🔹 53:04 Why Ari believes the SEC's investigations into VCs for acting as securities dealers might be justified, and how these practices resemble pump-and-dump schemes 🔹 59:11 With numerous token unlocks looming, why the outlook is bearish for many projects, and what challenges they face in mitigating potential sell-offs 🔹 1:05:52 Why many crypto investors might end up holding the bag in the current cycle, despite plans to sell early and avoid losses 🔹 1:12:27 What the future role of VCs is in crypto, and how the influx of token unlocks and the rise of meme coins could shape the bull cycle

I think I just stumbled onto the next thing everyone in crypto is about to talk about. It’s called Catapult, and it’s building an all-in-one toolset for token launches and trading on HyperEVM. I’ve been poking around their Turbo mode and the upcoming Hyper mode—and honestly, I’m shocked at how different this feels from the usual “spin up liquidity, pray for volume” routine. Here’s what grabbed me first: with Catapult Turbo, you can launch a token with zero upfront liquidity. You pay $10, hit launch, and you can earn from trading volume right away. Pricing runs on provably fair math, so the mechanics aren’t a black box. And here’s the twist I didn’t expect: top-performing tokens by volume will graduate to real LPs. In other words, if your token actually moves, Catapult helps it level up into a proper liquidity pool. That’s such a clean incentive loop. And then there’s Catapult Hyper. From what I’ve seen, it’s aiming to challenge the status quo for launchpads entirely—new liquidity mechanism, built-in incentives, a reworked bonding process, and multichain out of the gate. If Turbo is the spark, Hyper looks like the accelerant. Why I think people will be all over this soon: I’m seeing the early buzz already creators love the “no liquidity, no upfront cost” angle. No skewed odds: the design aims to reduce lopsided chances and give more tokens a real shot at upside. Aligned incentives: creators get 0.5% of token volume, and there’s a 10% referral revenue share. If you’re building or shilling, that’s meaningful. If you’ve ever hesitated to launch because funding liquidity felt like a cliff—same. That’s why Turbo surprised me. It’s simple, cheap, and actually gives you a path from launch to volume to real LP. TL;DR (and why I’m excited): TURBO is live: launch a token for $10, no upfront liquidity, earn from volume. Fair pricing via GMB; top tokens graduate to LPs. Creator rewards: 0.5% of volume + 10% referral revenue. HYPER: a reimagined launchpad with new liquidity mechanics and built-in incentives. I’m calling it now: this model is going to be everywhere in a minute. If you’re curious or ready to launch get in early and lock your spot. 🔗 Join here 👉

We are excited to announce a powerful step for the future of FOMO! Taking a page out of Virtuals book on BASE, FOMO will be releasing the ability for future projects to be paired in $FOMO in the coming weeks. This is the biggest release we have ever announced. Launch your AI Agent Token + $FOMO trading pair Every individual agent token is paired with the $FOMO token in its liquidity pool. When launching an agent on you will need $FOMO tokens, which are used to create the liquidity pool. This process creates deflationary pressure for FOMO and the entire agent ecosystem. When creating your agent and token, you will have the option to pair your launch with FOMO or SOL, as our goal is not to alienate any project, but rather invite the best communities, CTO’s and builders to launch with us. If you decide to pair your project with FOMO you in turn get full marketing and dev support, once your project graduates the bonding curve and reaches Raydium. Further, as an added incentive, as our revenue grows we will be using part of the funds to support projects that have paired in FOMO. And Devs who launch tokens paired in FOMO will earn fees from their AI Agent token launch. Building the most robust agents using our framework will catapult us as one of the most prominent standards of the Solana ecosystem. Not only have we developed our own core infrastructure, but we also pull from some of the best repo’s and developer talent in all of AI, not just blockchain. Our team is comprised of 9 world class artificial intelligence engineers, PHDs in mathematics and engineering from the top companies on the cutting edge of AI. The future of AI Agents will be on Solana and we will help lead the way.

🚨 BREAKING: THERE ARE RUMORS YOU CAN NOW CREATE "SAFE TOKENS" DIRECTLY ON ETHERVISTADEX What are "Safe Tokens"? "Safe Tokens" are tokens generated through our SafeTokenFactory smart contract. These tokens are designed to eliminate vulnerabilities such as mintable functions or scammy taxes and come with a standardized implementation. Before swapping, users can easily verify whether a token is "safe" or if additional caution is needed. This marks a significant step forward in enhancing the quality of projects launched on Ethervista. But does this compromise the customizability of ERC tokens? Not at all. The Ethervista Protocol smart contract allows for a limitless range of applications. Take the $VISTA contract, for example. It's a standard ERC20 token, but with the Ethervista Protocol smart contract, it automatically buys and burns tokens. Similar logic can be applied to any ERC20 token using EthervistaDEX’s unique Protocol feature. What other features would you like to see? Wen dashboards? Wen streaming? We're on it—we just hired a full-time full-stack engineer! Special shoutout to Bonzi - FIRST MEME and MASCOT @ Ethervista and Clippy - Microsoft Anti AI Helper @ Ethervista, the first whitelisted tokens. We will continue to strongly support tokens that burn part of their liquidity before the 5-day lock period and those with strong communities and utility. A final note to creators: We would like to emphasize that burning lp-tokens does not alter your share of rewards UNTIL you remove, add, or claim rewards, which automatically updates your pool share ratio based on your current balance and the total lp-supply, as outlined in our whitepaper. This DOES NOT affect protocol fees, which are used to support both the protocol and creators.

ORANGE $PILL: WEEK 1 UPDATE + MAJOR PARTNERSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT 🍊💊 BURN 2 EARN - WEEK 1 OF 6 COMPLETE ~155 BTC worth of dead tokens burned so far. Breakdown: - BRC-20s: 2.99% - Runes: 2.66% - Alkanes: 0.06% - CBRC-20s: 94.29% The community support has been incredible. 5 more weeks to go. --- THE BIG NEWS We've been watching where our burn volume is coming from. The answer was clear: the OP_NET community has shown up harder than anyone. So we reached out to the OP_NET team. What happened next exceeded every expectation. --- ANNOUNCING: ORANGE PILL x OP_NET x MOTOSWAP PARTNERSHIP The OP_NET and Motoswap teams have officially agreed to support and endorse the Orange PILL initiative. Let's be crystal clear about what this is: Orange $PILL is an INDEPENDENT community project. We are NOT an official OP_NET protocol token. OP_NET will never have a protocol token - the only gas token OP_NET uses is and always will be $BTC. What we ARE: A community-driven unification token that is now officially aligned with and supported by the OP_NET ecosystem. --- WHY THIS PARTNERSHIP MAKES SENSE The OP_NET team recognized something important: they're building a new token standard on Bitcoin. The last thing this space needs is ANOTHER fragmenting force that requires people to spend more BTC buying/minting another new token. Orange $PILL already exists to unify failed token standards. Instead of competing, we're collaborating. $PILL gives the entire Bitcoin community an OP_20 token to use, trade, and farm - without spending additional BTC on a new standard. Everyone wins. --- THE PARTNERSHIP TERMS What Orange PILL receives: • $PILL becomes the FIRST OP_20 token • $PILL becomes the FIRST yield farm token on Motoswap • Featured placement in the Motoswap farming section at launch • Official support and endorsement from both teams What we're giving in return: • A portion of $PILL supply gifted to the OP_NET team for long-term incentive alignment • A portion of fees from Orange $PILL's liquidity mining program shared with OP_NET • Testnet users of OP_NET and Motoswap (who have been testing for ~1 year) will receive $PILL as their reward for contributing to the ecosystem --- MOTOSWAP ALIGNMENT You can't align with OP_NET without aligning with Motoswap. • Treasury swap between $PILL and $MOTO to ensure deep PILL/MOTO liquidity from day 1 • Additional $PILL airdrop to ALL $MOTO holders (burned AND non-burned) beyond B2E rewards • Additional $PILL airdrop to ALL Motocat holders The communities are now fully aligned. --- LONG TERM VISION Orange $PILL's ultimate goal: the first truly decentralized DAO on Bitcoin, powered by OP_NET smart contracts. Full tokenomics will be disclosed as we approach OP_NET mainnet and $PILL launch. --- FINAL NOTE - PLEASE READ We are beyond grateful to the OP_NET and Motoswap teams for this opportunity. Their support means everything to this community. But we need everyone to understand and respect this: $PILL is NOT an official OP_NET protocol token. There is no OP_NET protocol token and there never will be. $BTC is the only native gas token OP_NET uses. We are an independent community that is now proudly aligned with the OP_NET ecosystem. Please represent this accurately in your messaging. --- Thank you OP_NET. Thank you Motoswap. Let's build. Taking the Orange $PILL is choosing Bitcoin unification 🍊💊

Reactive Mainnet is Live! After a successful Testnet with well over 4M transactions, 200M origin events processed and dozens of innovative dApps and use cases devised, we've finally reached the day to launch the Reactive Network Mainnet! From day one Reactive Network will support as both origin and destination chains: 1️⃣ Ethereum Mainnet 2️⃣ Avalanche C-Chain 3️⃣ Base Chain 4️⃣ Binance Smart Chain 5️⃣ Polygon PoS With more on the way! REACT Token - However Mainnet wouldn't function without it's most core component the REACT token, which also goes into circulation today and serves multiple purposes within the Reactive Network ecosystem: Gas Fees: Pay for transactions on the network. Event Log Processing: Consumed as fees when executing Reactive Smart Contracts. Token Burn: Fees are burned, fueling the potential for a future deflationary model. Staking: Help to secure the network and earn rewards. Token Portal - Today we're also launching our Token Portal which will allow users to swap their $PRQ for $REACT and vice versa. As Reactive Network is based upon a Proof of Stake consensus mechanism staking will be available from day one, beginning with delegated staking which will also be done via our Token Portal here: Staking Terms - In response to our user feedback we've also adjusted our initial staking term from 6 months to 3 months. See our Staking Guide for full details on staking: More Questions? We've put together an FAQ to address the most common questions users may have:
