#Binance is launching the $400M "Together Initiative" – a bold move to rebuild user confidence and support the crypto ecosystem after recent brutal market volatility that hit many.
People are complaining that Binance is only giving out $400M when liquidations topped $19B... Guys, please – show me ANY exchange that's shelled out more to protect its users! It wasn't even their fault, but they're doing this because they truly care about us, the community that built them.
Let's recap their unmatched track record: 🔸 $283M compensation fund on @Binance 🔸 $45M recovery airdrop via BNBChain and Four meme
↪️ And now, fresh $400M push: $300M in $USDC distributions (up to $6K per eligible user hit by liquidations) for retail traders plus a $100M low-interest loan fund for institutions
This isn't liability – it's leadership. Binance puts users first, injecting real funds where it matters most!
#bnb is showing remarkable strength! Despite Friday's $19B+ market liquidation due to Trump's China tariff news, causing massive drops in many assets, $BNB fully recovered and hit a new all-time high above $1,300 today 🤯
With BNB Chain thriving, it’s time to explore its quality projects.
I don’t want to talk too much about yesterday...been in this space since 2017 but that was something else. Hope you’re all holding up!
Let’s focus on fundamentals with two stories slipping under the radar:
1⃣ Softbank's PayPay snagged a 40% stake in #Binance Japan to supercharge cashless payments & digital assets. With Japan eyeing looser crypto rules (Nikkei, March), Binance Japan users can now use PayPay Money for crypto buys/withdrawals
2⃣ Kalshi raised $300M (Sequoia, a16z, Paradigm, Coinbase Ventures) to take its prediction markets to 140+ countries, hitting a $5B valuation. Rivaling Polymarket’s $9B valuation (backed by ICE), it’s live globally but skips 38 countries like the UK, Canada, & France
What’s your take on these moves? Imo, when in doubt, zoom out & focus on fundamentals. WAGMI
In honor of #CZ , I'm sharing this custom roadmap tracing his remarkable path to becoming the crypto GOAT 🐐
From taking odd jobs in Canada as a teen, teaching himself to code by age 12, leaving university to develop high-speed trading systems for the Tokyo Stock Exchange & Bloomberg, to discovering $BTC in 2013 and co-founding #Binance in 2017.
He grew it to serve over 100 million users (today almost 300m) worldwide!
The 2023 challenges...a guilty plea, resignation as CEO, a $4 billion fine & four months in prison could have sidelined anyone. Yet he returned stronger, launching YZi Labs, investing in Web3 through his family office, advancing the BNB Chain ecosystem.
CZ, you're a true inspiration! Thank you for laying the foundations of Web3, fostering innovation & demonstrating what resilience looks like. Grateful for your impact 🤝

Dropping a dope comparison graphic of Sentient AGI vs. OpenAI’s ChatGPT, and I’m stoked to break it down! ⚔️
If you’re into #AI that’s shaking things up, this one’s for you ➡️ Let’s dive into why Sentient AGI is stealing the spotlight and how it stacks up against the big dog, OpenAI 👇
◽️ Sentient AGI, born in 2024, is the people’s champ, pushing for AI that’s free from corporate gatekeepers. They snagged $85M in seed funding, hitting a $1.2B valuation with backers like Founders Fund. Their GRID network is straight fire - 40+ AI agents and 100+ models collab in real-time for stuff like crypto charts or travel plans. Sentient Chat just launched for 2M waitlisters, letting you mix agents for custom tasks.
Their Dobby model (2M+ human feedback loops) and ROMA framework are fully open-source, so devs can jump in, build, and even earn token rewards. It’s transparent, community-driven, and all about keeping AGI in our hands.
◾️ OpenAI, since 2015, is the slick veteran with a $300B valuation and $8.3B in recent cash. GPT-5 (Aug 2025) and Codex are beasts for reasoning and coding, but it’s mostly closed-source, with premium tiers costing $20+/month. It’s polished, no doubt, but feels like a walled garden.
🏁 My graphic lays it out: Sentient is open, modular, and ethical, with tools like ODS showing every step of AI reasoning. OpenAI’s powerful but plays gatekeeper. Sentient’s the rebel building AI for all; OpenAI’s the corporate king.
Remember when #bitcoin was just digital gold, chillin' in wallets without much action?
Arch Network is changing that - it's the execution layer unlocking #DeFi , #RWA , and capital markets right on BTC's base layer. No bridges, no wrappers, just pure programmability with ArchVM tapping into UTXOs for seamless dApps.
Quick highlights 👇
⚫️ Raised $20M total ($7M seed + $13M Series A at $200M val) from Multicoin, Pantera & CMS (Apr '25) ⚫️ Testnet (Nov '24 ongoing): 40K+ users, 25+ protocols live (like VoltFi DEX with 59K+ txns), 330K+ sign-ups grinding for airdrops ⚫️ ARCH token utilities: Staking for security, gas fees, governance votes, community airdrops ⚫️ Tech vibes: Rust-based ArchVM, dPoS verifiers with FROST + ROAST for secure sigs, Titan indexer for real-time Runes & $BTC indexing - scalable, MEV-resistant
Led by Matt Mudano (CEO, 10+ yrs crypto) & Amine El Garaaoui (CTO, BTC miner since '12).
Just spent my morning geeking out over The Grid from Sentient AGI and honestly: mind blown! 🤯
It’s AI done right, not locked up by big tech like ChatGPT or Claude - It’s an open-source network where AI agents, data, and compute team up to crush complex tasks.
Here’s why I think it’s a game-changer 👇
▪️ Open & Collaborative: No proprietary black boxes. Devs plug in 110+ partners like Franklin Templeton, K4ito, Messari, and $EIGEN to build real AGI together. ▪️ Proactive Smarts: Ask about $ETH vs. $SOL , and it sends agents to fetch on-chain data, whitepapers, and more—verifiable on Base or Polygon. Beats reactive chatbots any day. ▪️ Transparent & Crypto-Native: Every response shows its work, with persistent memory across chats. No more “trust me, bro” AI. ▪️ Huge Ecosystem: 100+ partners already, from crypto analytics to institutional players, powering everything from news to travel tools. Tired of walled-off AI? The Grid’s open, community-driven, and pushing for sustainable AGI.
Everyone was gearing up for the Fed decision today… and if you follow the flows, you’ll see where the real positioning is happening 🔍👇
🔶 $2.1B+ in stablecoins moved to #Binance in just a few days - the biggest inflow among all exchanges. That’s a lot of dry powder parked and waiting for Powell’s signal.
🔶 It’s not just retail stacking $USDC but whale activity is surging. Average deposit size on Binance is now $214K, almost double July levels.
🔶 And it’s not just stables, altcoin deposits are heating up too. 55K total across exchanges in the past week, and nearly half went to Binance.

Introducing ‘Humans of Binance’, a storytelling-driven campaign that brings to life real stories of people whose lives have been positively transformed through crypto. Here's my story ⤵️
I got into finance pretty early... 15 years old, messing around with stocks, learning the basics from my dad. Market cap, EPS, dividends… I figured out quickly that just because a stock costs $1000 doesn’t mean it’s “expensive.” 😅
Fast forward a few years, I stumbled on #bitcoin around 2015 or 2016 on Investingdotcom. Saw the logo (it looked like a Bulgarian flag 🇧🇬) and thought… hmm, no logo? Red flag. Still, I kept an eye on it-crazy volatile, kinda wild.
2017 hit, and I decided to dive into crypto properly. #BTC never really called to me as I felt like its growth was capped. So I started checking out ICOs. That’s when I found $AAVE . Needed $ETH to invest, so I made a @binance account. And damn… the platform just worked. Smooth, easy, no headaches 👌
A few weeks later, AAVE won Binance’s community vote to get listed. I was hyped...for both AAVE and Binance. That was it. I never left Binance.
Crypto’s been a game-changer for me, and #Binance made the journey feel… human. Easy, accessible & empowering.
