Been digging into @build_on_bob, honestly the most serious attempt I’ve seen to bring BTC into DeFi the right way. Not even launched yet but already pulled over $240M in TVL. Numbers don’t lie.
It’s not just “BTC on ETH.” BOB is a full-on hybrid chain that uses: ⚙️ Ethereum’s ZK rollup infra 🔐 Native BTC secured via BitVM
For too long, BTC’s been sidelined in DeFi while ETH dominated TVL. BOB flips that. It turns BTC into a first-class DeFi asset with real yield, real liquidity, and 1-click deployment.
They’re co-authors of BitVM2 and part of the BitVM Alliance. Testnet is live. Institutions are already onboarding.
Already working with Aave, Chainlink, Fireblocks, Cobo. More integrations coming.
If you’re bullish on BTC yield, BOB is probably the one to watch.
$BID slowly up from the lows. @CreatorBid been cooking behind the scene, v2 on the way and the market starting to sniff it out. One good announcement and this thing could reprice hard.
P/S Kaito’s reach putting it on more people’s radar lately. Now people realizing $BID is basically the undervalued version of $Virtual but at $90M FDV vs $2B?? Way more room to grow. And they’ve been building since early 2024 before AI agents even hit the hype cycle.
Started from Binance Alpha, racked up serious volume, and now it’s on Binance Futures. Momentum looks solid and I’m genuinely bullish on how @taikoxyz pushing L2 scaling for Ethereum.
Taiko makes Ethereum work better. It’s faster, cheaper, and just as secure using ZK-Rollup tech.
What really caught my eye is Taiko Takeoff.
It’s a launchpad-like program for new projects on the Taiko mainnet and those projects airdrop tokens to the $TAIKO community. First one was Avalon Labs, a Bitcoin DeFi platform. More likely coming.
Catalyst-wise: 💧 Big liquidity injection into the Taiko/USDT pair on PancakeSwap (via Binance Alpha) 📈 Now top 3 in trading volume on Alpha 📊 Over $290M volume on CoinMarketCap 🪙 Already listed on Binance Alpha, Bybit, Bitget maybe Coinbase next?
Plus, the Binance trading comp (1.495M $TAIKO rewards) runs till June 14, only buy volume counts. That’s a lot of eyes on it.
If attention shifts back to L2s, Taiko’s already in position.
Feel like @pvpfun_io is gonna be the next big airdrop. You can play the rocket game with points. Call how high it flies, the better your guess, the bigger the rewards. Reach the top 100 for a share of the $10K prize pool + extra side rewards.
After launch, you can play with meme coins instead of points. You’ll also be able to earn by staking, basically playing as the house.
Backed by the biggest names in the space, including @Dragonfly_xyz, @AnimocaBrands, @6thManVentures
P/S invite friends to earn a lot of points to get started
While a lot of projects are still building toward real utility, $SWCH is already live allowing on-chain trading of Apple, Tesla, and ETFs. No brokers involved, just a decentralized way to access tokenized assets.
@Swisscheese_fn positioned as the first DEX focused on tokenized stocks and somehow started getting attention:
✅ Iker Casillas (20M+ fans) is part of the campaign ✅ Mentioned by Cointelegraph as a Top 10 crypto project to watch in 2025 ✅ Real billboards recently spotted in Hong Kong & Seoul
Currently listed on: Bitget, MEXC, Gate, BingX, BitMart, LBank, XT, CoinEx, Poloniex, and more.
Tokenized stocks might sound like a future concept, but $SWCH is one of the projects already moving in that direction
Not shocked $NATIX is up nearly 200%, it’s one of the few DePIN x AI projects actually building. @NATIXNetwork uses phone cams and AI to map the word to turn into a decentralized geospatial intel network via the Drive& app.
They just launched Subnet 72 (“StreetVision”) on @opentensor using data to train AI for mapping + autonomous driving.
Wouldn’t surprise to see $PUFF hit $100M+ mcap as cat season is in full swing and @LittlePuff___ already hit an 18M ATH earlier.
With 70M+ followers across TikTok & YouTube, it’s the #1 animal account on the platform. Insane reach. Right trend, right vibes, massive audience. Still feels early.
The first $BEER launched last year and went absolutely nuts, 35x from presale and listings all over great CEXs.
Now @beercoinmeme 2.0 lands with a better structure: 2 years of locked team tokens, 70%+ to LP and buybacks. Even 15K+ have already signed up for the presale today, which goes live at 5 PM UTC.
There’s a real shot at catching that same momentum maybe even outdoing the first run.
CPI came in lower than expected, rate cuts could be next. That’s a bullish signal for BTC, ETH, and alts. $DIA bounced back above the 50MA and is now testing key resistance around $0.65. With inflation cooling, I’m eyeing further upside, infra plays like @DIAdata_org could shine.
Since Lumina launched, DIA’s been rolling out fully onchain oracles, AI-ready data, and RWA support, building a full trustless stack from source to chain.
RWA backed by renewable energy might sound new, but if it catches on, it’s got real potential. Just came across $SX on Bitmart, one of the first doing solar-powered crypto mining platform. Mine crypto, earn, and stay eco-friendly. @Solarsx04 is changing the mining game with solar energy and diving into the RWA space by turning solar assets into tokens. Real-world utility, real rewards.
$WMTX just made a move out of its accumulation range, but ngl anything under 0.19 still feels like a sweet spot to DCA. Watching the 0.2 zone closely if it gets rejected there, might load up a bit more for the next leg.
By the way, Core Staking just dropped, and around 25% of the circulating @wmchain is already locked in the Cardano vault.
You can swap $ADA to $WMTX instantly using the Eternl wallet, and stake it right there for up to 5% annual returns.
Feels like a solid play right now especially with how low the market cap still is.
Every pump kinda revives meme season and honestly, $HIPPO still holds the crown as greatest meme built on Sui Chain, casually up 11% for the past 24 hours. P/S, @hippo_cto previously listed on Ledger, a nice boost imo. But what really hits is how the community’s been riding strong through every dip and pump.
With BTC pushing past 94K again, a bunch of OG tokens are starting to move, $IOTA included.
The crazy part? @IOTA still sitting way below others like SUI and Aptos in terms of valuation like potentially a 12x to 30x gap. and if the market keeps this pace, $IOTA might be one of those surprise plays this year.
P/S the IOTA Rebased Mainet is going live on May 5 which one of the greatest catalysts for Q2.
$QI mainnet just went live yesterday, another product launched by @QuaiNetwork and no, it’s not a usual stablecoin. This one’s backed by energy, not fiat. People are even calling it the “energy dollar.”
So, why’s $QI catching attention? • It’s tied to real-world energy. Instead of being backed by dollars or centralized assets, the value comes from the actual energy used to mine it. Real resource = real value.
• The tech behind it? A new consensus method called Proof-of-Entropy (PoEM). It’s way more accessible than BTC’s setup — you can mine it using a regular PC.
• After six years of R&D, the team launched $QI with zero initial supply. That means no early whales, everyone gets a fair shot.
• Privacy by Design : $QI uses a UTXO-style system with fixed amounts and no address reuse, kinda like how cash works. So by default, your transactions stay private without needing extra steps.
• And it’s fast. Like really fast : with potential to hit 50,000 TPS. That’s the kind of speed needed for real-life payments.
After 6 years of building behind the scenes, the Quai team just made a huge leap forward. Props to them, excited to see how this plays out.
Thanks to the dip, we’ve got a cleaner entry on this $IOTA. Been waiting for sub-0.15 levels for a while, finally added more to bag. We’ll probably range between 0.15–0.20 for a bit, so no pressure to rush in. But if we flip 0.2, things could move fast unless 0.3 gets heavy short pressure.
P/S: The @iota Rebase Mainnet is almost here. Core infrastructure’s done right now, could be a solid catalyst
Only 1 day left to vote — your support might be what gets @zetablockchain listed on Binance. I’ve voted for #ZETA, the only Layer 1 that has Universal Blockchain with native access to Bitcoin, BNB, Ethereum, Solana, and more.
It’s time to back teams that are actually building. ZETA didn’t just talk, they delivered in full force
