900 million USD financing Self points interaction tutorial

Self is an identity verification privacy project, and the points system has just launched, offering early opportunities. There are tasks with zero cost and low cost, so participate in the airdrop.

You need to install the APP and complete identity verification; options are available for mainland users, and a passport can be used.
Entry: referral.self.xyz/referral/0x7fA7BBA76eBf0BA591A4F599597ea4aF72C02840

Through the Self Points at the bottom of the APP, enter the points system

➤ 3 essential basic points tasks

Open notifications / Backup account / Refer friends
These are all simple, so I won’t elaborate further

//

➤ Protocol interaction for identity verification
According to Self's official points instructions, each verification can earn points, so it is necessary to interact with the partnered protocols to earn points.

I have summarized a few:

1️⃣ Celo domain
Interact as per the tutorial in the image
▰ Enter the domain - Scan for verification - Claim the domain

Entry: names.celo.org

Users who pass verification can claim the domain for free
A very small amount of $CELO from the Celo network is needed as gas

Supplement: Completing just the scan verification step should suffice to earn Self points. I happened to have gas on the Celo network, so I claimed the domain; brothers can test it out

//

2️⃣ AAVE
Detailed interaction process can be found in the official video tutorial, which is very detailed

Entry: app.aave.com/markets
Video tutorial: https://x.com/SelfProtocol/status/1973402754937921692

Supplement: Completing up to the scan verification is enough; subsequent deposits depend on personal preference

3️⃣ Lemonade
Completely zero cost
Entry: lemonade.social

After entering, first link your wallet to register an account
Then, in the upper right corner of the homepage, there is Get Verified
Click to scan for verification

//

4️⃣ Velodrome
Need to prepare assets from the Optimism network
$VELO - around $1 is sufficient
$WETH - at least 0.01, actual interaction only consumes about $0.5 of WETH

Interaction entry: velodrome.finance/locks
Detailed interaction process can be found in the official video tutorial, which is very detailed

Points are not updated in real time; they will be automatically updated every Sunday

Self's background is quite good and worth pursuing; I previously wrote a detailed introduction article about Self, which can be reviewed.

Moonbirds confirmed the issuance of tokens, and it will be soon.

The four major task platforms that hair removal enthusiasts are very familiar with
Galxe / Layer3 / Guild / Zealy

The first two have already issued tokens, and the latter two also have the possibility of issuing tokens

Next, let's pay special attention to Guild, I found that top projects like to issue tasks on Guild, for example:
base / zama / Optimism / soneium

Usually, in addition to completing tasks on Guild for these projects, don't forget to interact with Guild's own tasks as well

Entrance: guild.xyz/guild

See the table for related task requirements. If any brother knows how to complete the 'Active Guilder' task, please leave a message

Another identity verification project has completed financing
 
Self Protocol has just announced that it has raised $9 million in financing, founded by former core members of Celo and recognized by the Ethereum Foundation.
 
Currently, all you can do is install the APP, complete identity verification, earn points, and then there are 2 tasks to do on Layer3, very simple, just do airdrop tasks.
 
▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰
 
Self Protocol completes identity verification through ZK and decentralized storage, covering the entire product system from verification to ecological integration:
 
➤ Self Pass
The core module used to verify human uniqueness and identity legitimacy. Provides underlying support for preventing witch hunts, DeFi access, and blocking bots.
 
➤ Self Connect
Quickly binds wallet accounts through mobile phone numbers, lowering the barriers for traditional users to access Web3.
 
➤ Self SDK
A toolkit provided to developers that can be embedded in wallets, applications, or DeFi protocols, helping these platforms quickly enable privacy-based identity features.
 
Currently, Self supports documents from over 174 countries and biometric passports, and has achieved integration on Celo, connecting with ecological applications such as Aave, Velodrome, etc. Verified users can gain additional benefits.
 
Self is the first project to link identity verification with DeFi earnings, and this design provides a new approach for the implementation of identity protocols.
 
//
 
When talking about the privacy identity track, it's important to mention the differences between Self and other similar projects:
 
Compared to Worldcoin, Self does not require dedicated hardware and does not collect biometric data, resulting in lower compliance risks;
Compared to Billions, it emphasizes on-chain verification and multi-chain interoperability;
Compared to reputation protocols like Human Passport, Self not only records reputation data but can also provide verifiable identity credentials.
 
Self's mechanism is more flexible, capable of entering scenarios like RWA and DeFi, and can also be compatible with an open Web3 application ecosystem.
 
//
 
In summary, the direction of Self Protocol is to become a privacy-friendly intermediary layer, allowing different ecosystems to safely share 'human verification results' rather than user data.
 
However, the value of the identity protocol can only truly manifest when it is widely integrated.

Currently, Self has secured cooperation resources from several leading institutions and projects, establishing a stable ecological foundation. The next step is to see if it can further expand the multi-chain ecosystem and real-world use cases.

More and more projects are issuing NFTs before TGE
For example: 0G / Camp / Anoma / Kite / Billions

By comparing the historical performance and airdrop value of these NFTs, three conclusions can be drawn:
- The initial mint price may break even or make a small profit
- Secondary market buyers of NFTs are likely to lose money
- Finding a suitable price to sell NFTs is more profitable than airdrop earnings

Summary: Always go for free ones, never buy in the secondary market

Choosing to issue NFTs before TGE is essentially a marketing strategy to hype up the excitement with airdrop expectations and generate traffic, creating momentum for TGE, so don't get too carried away.

It is really important to follow a project

Previously, Hyperliquid airdropped Hypurr NFTs to early ecosystem users, worth tens of thousands of USDT, and subsequently multiple projects airdropped tokens to NFT holders.

RAMSES will soon have its TGE on Hyperliquid, with 20% of token allocation airdropped to Hypurr NFT holders and 10% to RXP points program users.

From the airdrop, we can see that RAMSES wants to stay close to the Hyperliquid ecosystem, aiming to be the most technically aggressive and fully functional DEX.

The core innovation of Ramses is the x(3,3) model.
The traditional ve(3,3) mechanism relies on long-term locking to exchange for voting rights, resulting in many becoming "zombie votes", with the protocol passively inflating and users being passively diluted.

In contrast, x(3,3) goes the opposite way:
▰ No forced long-term locking, rewarding users based on actual participation and contribution
▰ When RAM is converted to xRAM, 50% is burned, creating deflation
▰ The more people exit, the higher the value density for those who remain

In a sense, this is an evolved version of ve(3,3), simplifying the locking logic, enhancing the fairness of incentives, and replacing Rebase with burning, making it the first "deflationary ve(3,3) framework".

Another major highlight of Ramses is its integration of liquidity protection mechanisms and income distribution systems into a closed loop.

At the trading end, Ramses introduces a dynamic fee rate mechanism:
When the market is stable, transaction fees are lower; during extreme volatility, the system will raise rates to prevent LPs from being arbitraged or harmed by slippage in extreme market conditions.

It has a built-in self-developed MEV defense system, redistributing profits that would originally be taken by bots to LPs and xRAM holders.

On the income side, Ramses does not allow any value to flow out of the protocol.
All transaction fees, MEV earnings, and voting incentives will be redistributed to holders and liquidity providers, with no VC dividends and no black box.

More importantly, it interacts with Hyperliquid, and part of the revenue will automatically repurchase HYPE, achieving a return of value to the entire ecosystem, forming a "trading → revenue → repurchase → ecosystem growth" flywheel.

The design of Ramses is exploring new incentive structures:
Allowing LPs, traders, and token holders to achieve dynamic balance within the same system.

Whether this model can work effectively in the long term will depend on market feedback and the actual flow of funds.

But from a mechanical perspective, Ramses offers a new idea for DEXs, not relying on subsidies to drive growth, but accumulating value through self-consistent mechanisms.

Moonbirds leads an SBT

Moonbirds clearly issues tokens, hoping to have a pattern as grand as the fat penguins, sharing the benefits equally

First, register on Coingecko, you can use Google or email
Add Moonbirds to your Watchlist, then claim the SBT

Cost 0.0003ETH + gas fee, when gas is low the cost is 1.5U, just consider it as buying a lottery ticket
Entry: coingecko.com/en/nft/moonbirds

The crypto world is still very good at creating hype.

Kaito redefines the new listing process, with projects that break even now called crowdfunding.
80% of Apriori's airdrop tokens are suspected to have been claimed by a wallet cluster.
The MMT team is suspected of inflating the price, unlocking KOL rounds and airdrops after a crash.
Binance awards the Industry Contribution Award to Wang Duan Niao, who has a large position in OKB.

Exciting, it is truly exciting.

Base has clearly stated that it will issue tokens, and now completing the Guild tasks might be a better entry point.
 
The reason is simple: There are too many real users on the Base chain, and relying solely on on-chain interactions to earn airdrops may not surpass these deeply engaged real users. But I researched the official Guild tasks of Base, which are more focused on community contributions rather than just simple on-chain interactions.
 
Most Guild tasks will unlock a DC role, and these roles are likely to be used as measures of community activity and engagement in the future. Moreover, considering the number of participants, it's still worthwhile to complete them without too much effort.
 
Entry: era.guild.xyz/base
 
Most tasks on Guild are very simple, and I won't elaborate on the interaction process; you can directly check the images. Additionally, here are a few tasks that need attention:
 
➤ Home - The "Based" task in the Base section
Requires registering a Base domain, which is very low cost
Domains of 10 characters or more only cost 0.0001 ETH/year
 
//
 
➤ Home - The "Coinbase Onchain Verified" task in the Base section
Verify wallet address on Coinbase
It's quite difficult for us, the Chinese, to complete
 
//
 
➤ The first 5 tasks in the Base Programs section
These 5 tasks require deploying contracts and can be completed with one click
 
Contract deployment tool: base-learn-rho.vercel.app/
After entering, link your wallet in the upper right corner; you need a MetaMask wallet
First, go to the Faucet to receive tokens for the Base Sepolia testnet
Then return to the tool website, click to deploy contracts and Mint Badge in order
Once all 15 contracts are deployed, return to Guild for verification
 
//
 
➤ The last 10 tasks in the Base Programs section
These 10 tasks seem to have already ended, and I currently can't find a way to complete them. If anyone knows, please share.

17.5 million USD Perle applies for early qualifications and Galaxy missions

Perle Labs is a decentralized network that incentivizes users to participate in AI data annotation, raising 17.5 million USD in two rounds of financing, with Framework alone investing in the seed round, and the background looks pretty good.

To apply for early testing qualifications, you must do a little bit of work; I see the page looks very professional, and it clearly states anti-witchcraft. If you obtain the qualification and participate in the testing, it feels like there will be some benefits.

MetaMask Points Mechanism and Reward Details

First, let's talk about MetaMask's rewards, which I believe can be divided into two parts:
First, there is a reward pool of $30 million in $LINEA tokens, which is clearly rewarded to users in the first season; the more points you have, the more rewards you can receive;
Secondly, MetaMask has confirmed the issuance of tokens, so there is also an expectation for token airdrops.

Ways to earn points:
▰ Swap transactions: For every $10 in transaction volume, you can earn 8 points
▰ Contract trading: For every $10 in transaction volume, you can earn 1 point
▰ Invitations: For every 50 points earned by the invitee, you can earn 10 points
▰ Historical rewards: By reviewing historical transaction records, earn 250 points for every $1250

Reward multipliers:
▰ 1.5x multiplier for interacting on the mobile APP
▰ 2x multiplier for interacting on the Linea network

The two rewards can be stacked, so be sure to use the APP to interact; you can earn more points at the same cost.

Be sure to use the latest version of the MetaMask APP
▰ Click on Reward in the menu bar below and then click next
▰ Enter invitation code: J13S1C
▰ You can earn double points

Points are divided into 7 levels, and different levels can unlock corresponding rewards. Please note the following points:
1. You can only unlock the $LINEA reward at level 2 after reaching 1000 points
2. At levels 3 and 5, you can obtain point multiplier cards, which can be activated at any time and enjoy point multipliers within the validity period.

Finally, I would like to remind everyone that the Swap fee for MetaMask is 0.0875%, which is quite high, so be sure to control costs while boosting volume.

After entering, first bind your Twitter account.

I highly recommend the method of earning points through social interaction. River's positioning is really good. Previously, just connecting Twitter would earn points through airdrops, so you can first check the Airdrop page.

River's social interaction is quite friendly to small accounts. Not only can you earn points by posting original content, but you can also earn points by commenting on content related to River.

Be sure to remember to tag @RiverdotInc and @River4FUN.

▰ River Pts points are updated daily based on participation.

➤ Stake and reinvest River Pts points.
If you are optimistic about the long-term value of River Pts points, you can choose to stake them. The current APR exceeds 30%.

On the 4Fun page, you can see the staking button. Stake at any time, withdraw at any time without locking up, and rewards can also be withdrawn at any time.

▰ River Pts points increase in real-time based on the amount staked.

//

River Pts points can be directly traded through DEX or exchanged for $RIVER tokens at the official dynamic conversion rate.

These are all the ways to earn points in S3. River's official announcement also previews new activities to earn points. When they go live, I will update the tutorial promptly, so stay tuned.

11 million USD financing Edgen earns points

If you haven't registered yet, hurry up and register. Joining now will give you initial points. We have previously released a tutorial on earning points with Edgen, and there are now more interactive ways. I will summarize them so you can participate according to the tutorial.

Edgen is an AI market intelligence platform, simply put, it predicts market trends by analyzing data through AI. It has completed two rounds of financing totaling 11 million USD, led by Framework Ventures, with participation from OKX Ventures, Animoca Brands, and others.

A few days ago, the cryptocurrency research organization Messari published a detailed research report on Edgen. Overall, they are quite optimistic about Edgen. Interested parties can go read it.

Edgen interaction portal: http://edgen.tech/aura/xiaoyubtc
Aura points can be viewed in Personal - Aura Leaderboard

Five ways to earn Aura points

1️⃣
By logging in with Twitter, you can earn initial Aura points based on the number of Twitter followers.

2️⃣
Participate in activities that share the Aura points prize pool by completing social tasks.

3️⃣
Through invitations, both parties can earn Aura points.

4️⃣
Tweet with the token codes; high-quality content will be rewarded with Aura points, such as including $ETH $BTC.

5️⃣
By subscribing to membership, you can receive Aura points all at once and continue to earn points daily.

Aura points may be one of the airdrop criteria. My strategy is to focus on the zero-cost part.

The Aura points added from subscribing to membership are significant, but the cost is a bit high, unless you really plan to use Edgen’s market analysis features. If you are simply looking to speculate on airdrops, it is not recommended to subscribe.

During market downturns, what truly deserves attention is often not those projects that are short-term speculative, but rather the old OGs that can maintain their footing and continuously evolve amidst volatility.

Recently, I revisited Synthetix, and I must say, the resilience and confidence of this old DeFi project remain quite strong.

The currently popular infinex @infinex is a new product developed by Synthetix, and at the same time, it is continuously refining its core product. For example, the recently launched Perps V2 has optimized transaction fees, slippage, and funding rate mechanisms, and it has also introduced the Pyth Network oracle to improve pricing accuracy and execution speed.

The team also plans to deploy the perpetual contract DEX back to the Ethereum mainnet and simultaneously launch a trading competition with a million-dollar prize:
1st place takes home $1,000,000
2nd-10th places can receive $SNX rewards and Infinex Patrons NFT

This approach, on one hand, stimulates trading activity, and on the other hand, serves as a large-scale stress test for the ecosystem.

Looking back at the price of $SNX, it has shown quite a stable performance recently. After the market crash on October 11, the price quickly rebounded, recovering all losses and even doubling, reaching a recent high.

The reasons for this are quite clear: the demand for derivatives tends to rise during periods of market volatility, the reduction in locked collateral decreases the circulating supply, and transaction fees provide continuous revenue. Additionally, the community has high expectations for the upcoming V3 modular architecture. These factors combined have made Synthetix one of the few DeFi projects still making steady progress.

From a longer-term perspective, Synthetix is not chasing a short-term hot trend but aims to build the underlying infrastructure for DeFi. In this field, many new projects shout innovation, but very few can continuously optimize and deliver robust output at the foundational level.

Billions remember to check in daily to earn points, and there are also 2 more important things

1️⃣ I found a few Billions activation codes again, with time and quantity limits, hurry up, each code can earn points

Entrance: signup.billions.network/?rc=I4NAP6Q3

This code can earn 400 points, be quick
SENTIENTXBILLIONS

Each of the following activation codes can earn 25 points, input them in turn
SATURDAYNIGHT
MULTIPLIER24H
GBILLIONSBRO
ONEMILLIONCLOSER

If you encounter a situation where the invitation code is invalid, refresh the webpage, then click on daily check-in, and input again to earn points. If you still can't earn points, it probably means it is indeed invalid

You can pay more attention to the Billions official DC promo-codes channel, new codes are frequently announced

If you haven't interacted with Billions before, you can check my tutorial
