There are various U cards on the market now, which can be bound to WeChat and Alipay, and you can use U directly for consumption. For example, the one I often use now is the Infini card. You can usually recharge some U into the Infini card. When you encounter consumption of less than 200 yuan, you can pay directly. For example, daily parking fees, shopping for vegetables, etc., you can directly use the Infini bound to WeChat and Alipay to pay, which is very convenient to use.

Of course, in addition to being able to bind to WeChat and Alipay for consumption, it can also be used for paid Twitter Blue V, ChatGPT, Facebook, etc., so the range should be very wide.

In my opinion, Infini card is like Yu'ebao of Web3. The U deposited in it is interest-bearing, and the annualized rate is about 4%. I personally don't put too much money in it. Usually, I recharge 200~500u each time, and deposit it again after using it up. After all, we must pay attention to risks at all times. Infini was stolen once before, and the founder paid the full amount later, which is still very visionary.

An An has just launched the Alpha Point scoring system today. The number of points will determine eligibility for participating in the new token offerings. Entry: Exchange homepage — More — News — Alpha Point, or you can directly search for alpha points on the homepage.
Just in time, from 4 to 6 PM today, those with at least 45 points in the point system can participate in the new token offering for $AIOT on Binance Wallet. Later, you can find the entry point in Binance Wallet. The investment is 3 BNB, so eligible participants can take note.
With the introduction of this point system, it is likely to become more competitive. According to the current rules, if you retain at least $100~$1000, you earn 1 point daily; $1000~$10000, you earn 2 points daily; $10000~$100000, you earn 3 points daily; and over $100000, you earn 4 points daily. This depends on your actual situation. Currently, keeping $100 seems to offer a better cost-performance ratio.

A Hong Kong bank card that can be used to register with Hong Kong brokers and participate in IPOs, such as the IPO of Mixue in February, which has a maximum profit of 30,000 per order. Even if we sell it right after the opening, the profits are still considerable. We can also participate in US stock IPOs. Additionally, at the right time, we can purchase Hong Kong and US stocks.

Of course, for us in the cryptocurrency circle, the most important thing is that we can realize profits through certain Hong Kong brokers. Moreover, having funds on a Hong Kong card provides a level of isolation, avoiding being wiped out in one go, thus diversifying risk, especially in a bear market where many cryptocurrencies may face issues.

When going to Hong Kong to apply for a card, it is essential to go in person. Some say it can be done without being there, but that requires having over 500,000 yuan deposited in a domestic bank, plus notarization and proof, which is too cumbersome and not recommended. When we are in Hong Kong, it is usually done online without needing to provide asset proof, which is much more convenient.

1. The Bitcoin Thunderbolt project in the BTC ecosystem. If you have an invitation code, you can register first. The invitation code can be found in the project's official Twitter and Discord; there may be opportunities to obtain one. After successful registration, you will also need to complete KYC, which can be done quickly with a passport. The platform directly gives away 0.00004762 BTC (about $5) for free. This platform may have new asset issuances, new things, and new opportunities in the future, so let's keep an eye on it together.

2. The Daios project is worth paying attention to. It is said to be the same platform as ai16z, with 58,000 followers on its official Twitter. Many influencers are following it. The project shows a fundraising goal of 420 SOL, but it hasn't started yet, and it's unclear when it will begin. Everyone can pay attention together and notify each other once it starts to see if we should participate.

The BTC ecosystem RGB mainnet is expected to go live next week, and the first RGB20 asset or an asset from the official platform will appear. How can we layout in advance to seize the opportunity?
Because it has been pre-heated now, it is very likely to be competitive, but with new protocols and new opportunities, we still need to be prepared.
Step 1: First, prepare your Bitlight wallet and transfer BTC into the wallet (mainnet BitcoinMainnet). The amount depends on your preference, but it’s generally recommended to transfer over 100U in a single transaction.

The Alkanes token, which has been popular for 4 days, has seen a certain degree of pullback today. Take this time to familiarize yourself with various infrastructures and operational processes. If the Alkanes protocol truly develops, we can seize the opportunity immediately.
Step 1: To participate in the Alkanes protocol, it is recommended to use the Oyl wallet to avoid asset loss. Additionally, the Oyl wallet may have potential airdrop opportunities in the future. You can create multiple addresses with one set of mnemonic words for airdrop chances. It is emphasized again to write down the mnemonic words; do not take screenshots, do not take photos, and do not copy them on the computer.

Binance's Launchpool has an INIT project, where you can invest BNB, FDUSD, and USDC. If you have any of these 3 idle assets, you can participate. The earlier you participate, the more INIT new tokens you can obtain. If you do not have any of these 3 assets, it is not recommended to participate in lending, as the risk is high. Do your own research.

With the recommendation of OGs in the Bit ecosystem and the iDclub platform, the Alkanes protocol is beginning to rise. The leading METHANE reached a maximum of 70U (cost 0.8U), nearly 80 times its value, showing a good wealth effect.
Currently ongoing is BUTANE (butane), with a total of 100,000 cards, the current progress is 66%. Last night during the live stream in the community, the Gas was only 1.5 to mint, costing 0.8U per card. Now the Gas has basically risen to 4, costing 1.1U per card, relatively speaking, the odds are still acceptable.
Why choose BUTANE (butane)? There are three main reasons: no reservation, relatively early number, and recommendation by OGs in the Bit ecosystem. With the support of popularity, the Alkanes protocol may have the potential to break into the mainstream. It is recommended to participate in the new issuance, even if it's just a set of 24 cards, costing 26U, it's worth trying something new, consider it as a play with zero expectation, DYOR.

This year, Binance wallet had two good opportunities for new listings. The first was on February 13, when I participated in the MyShell listing, investing 3 BNB, with a maximum profit of 800 USD and an average profit of 500 USD per ticket.
Yesterday, Binance wallet had another BMT new listing, requiring an investment of 3 BNB. However, this time the investment period was very short, from 4 PM to 7 PM, just 3 hours. The average profit per ticket was 80 dollars, with a maximum of 100 dollars, which is quite a good project given the current market situation.
Although participating in new listings on exchanges is not as good as the opportunities on-chain (you have to be lucky enough to encounter them, willing to take large positions, and act early), participating in new listings on exchanges is a way to steadily grow your capital, whether in a bear market or a bull market. I recommend everyone to make as many accounts as possible; usually, managing Binance, OKX, Bitget, and Bybit is sufficient.

1. Dexx has started compensating, reportedly reaching about 60%, and the compensation is not for the assets that were stolen originally, since most of the previous assets have almost gone to zero. The compensation is in real USDT and USDC, a one-time payment for amounts below 50,000 dollars.
I can only say out loud, Dexx has vision. Just think, if the theft incident had occurred back then, Dexx could come up with this plan in 3 days. Now Dexx would likely still be a leader, making several million dollars in fees every day. It's a pity.
2. The bear chain airdrop has arrived, a simple test net, yielding nothing, as expected. The staked accounts cannot be queried yet. Now the airdropped tokens have dropped from 14.6 dollars to 7.3 dollars and have been declared halved. Waiting three months later, when my staked account receives the tokens, I don't know if I can still get 5 dollars; I can only force a smile. The leaders receive first; they eat the meat first.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. I would like to wish you all a happy new year. In the new year, everyone can catch more golden dogs and achieve a small goal as soon as possible.
In recent days,#DeepSeekwas released, which is comparable to ChatGPT. It is free and also has online search and deep thinking. After trying it out, I found it very powerful. From now on, ChatGPT can be put aside and DeepSeek can be run.
However, DeepSeek, which is so easy to use, has taught Ai agent a profound lesson. Most of the Ai agent tokens fell. At this time, you can actually look at projects with actual Ai applications and implementation, and build positions in batches when the market is low. After all, it is always a good time to invest when everyone is afraid. Of course, this is only based on the premise that I personally feel that the current Ai agent ecosystem has not yet reached its end.

Today, the entire market has calmed down, and there are not many messages in various group chats; the craziness from three days ago when Trump launched the TRUMP token is completely gone. Instead, most tokens from Ai agents have seen a slight rebound after significant drops.
Looking back on the day Trump launched the token, my emotional journey: On the morning of the 18th at 10:34, a group friend posted about TRUMP in the chat; the price was 1.67U. I glanced at it and didn’t pay attention. At 10:46, a group friend said it was officially announced, and the price was close to 3U. At that time, I completely didn’t understand what the presidential token was about. Then around noon, a friend who had just entered the crypto space called to ask if I had bought the presidential token; the price was around 9U. I thought that was too high and didn’t buy. Later, TRUMP skyrocketed, which caught my attention, and I finally jumped in at 13U. Because the price was relatively high, I didn’t dare to invest heavily; I only participated with a small amount, and later sold most of it at prices of 38 and 52, leaving a little bit of position now.

Today's big event is Trump's TRUMP, which launched at 10 AM at a price of 0.18 USD. Within just a few hours, it surged to 16 USD, with a market cap reaching an astonishing 16 billion. The number of addresses has surpassed 170,000, completely opening up the landscape of on-chain assets. It can be said that playing on-chain in 2025 is inevitable, unlike before when everyone was focused on listing coins on exchanges.
Seen at Trump's address (2RH6rUTPBJ9rUDPpuV9b8z1YL56k1tYU6Uk5ZoaEFFSK), the X token on the SOL chain (EhkDgP8e5sz16AFCWUCYJzVug1zvpDLTEHxH4WAFpBFA) holds 9.08 million, worth nearly 120,000 USD. Later learned that it is a spontaneous donation activity initiated by the X community. The holding address of X has also reached 100,000, and the number of users in the X community on DeBox has exceeded 100,000. Looking forward to X rising too.

The GoPlus project, primarily invested in by Binance, has released an airdrop, which can now be claimed. Currently, for ordinary people, the amount of tokens received with no investment is not much, generally around 50 tokens, with a maximum of about 600 tokens.
From the investment lineup of this project, we can see Binance, OKEx, and Red Dot China, looking forward to listing on a major exchange and enjoying a large pork knuckle meal.
This GoPlus airdrop is the first phase, and there will be 3 more phases to come. The first phase is now open for claiming, and the claiming period is from January 16 to February 6. Currently, you still need to link your wallet to claim, and there is a small amount of Gas (which can be ignored).

Today, Bitcoin returned to 99,500, and the market surged, led by AI. Among them, the leading project on the Base chain, VIRTUAL, started at 2.9 and in 3 hours surged to nearly 3.7 USD, an increase of nearly 30%. The leading project on the SOL chain, ai16Z, also rose from 1.3 yesterday to 1.6 today, an increase of nearly 20%.
For these two assets, I have been emphasizing in the community to pay close attention. For those without positions, you can ignore the price for now and start with a small position, at least to avoid missing out. Currently, in the entire AI sector, there are assets with a market value yet to break 10 billion. However, I believe there will definitely be assets that break 10 billion, most likely appearing among the leaders. Currently, the market value of ai16Z and VIRTUAL is around 1.7 billion each, still with room to grow.

Recently, several projects have restricted participation based on national identity, such as the ongoing Soon project and the Solayer new project on the Buidlpad platform starting in a few days. These projects cannot pass KYC solely based on national identity, and at this time, the Palau ID can be useful.
Registering for the Palau ID costs 248U per year, which is a bit expensive but worth it, as some projects with entry barriers can be accessed successfully through the Palau ID certification. Participating in one project may earn it back. It is recommended for people in the cryptocurrency circle to have one. After registration, you can receive the physical ID card in about a month.

Today can be described as a sea of red, with blood flowing like rivers, most tokens have dropped by about 30%, to the point where I don't even want to check my account. In fact, this might be an opportunity; when most people are scared and don't want to look at their accounts, the price at this point might be a good entry point.
Just like me, in the AI agent sector, I am optimistic about SOL chain's Ai16z and Base chain's VIRTUAL. So, every time the price drops a little, I will add to my position. Just like in the screenshot, Ai16Z has been dropping, and I have been adding to my position because I truly believe they are the leaders in the AI agent space, and I don't think AI agents will just exist for 2 months and then disappear. On the contrary, it may just be the beginning.

There are currently five major Ai agent ecosystems, namely ai16z, Virtuals, Swarms, vvaifu and CreatorBid. Only the CreatorBid platform has not yet issued a coin. The platform token of this platform is BID. Now you can get the CreatorBid platform points by staking the ecological coins in the CreatorBid platform. In the future, you can redeem the CreatorBid platform coin BID based on the points.
There are five kinds of eco-currencies on the CreatorBid platform, namely Agent, Shogun, Dking, EoLas, and Aion. Agent is the official brand mascot and strategic master of CreatorBid. Its current market value is 14.66M, and its price is 0.69U, with a maximum of 1.4. From the highest point, it has retreated by 50%, which is relatively low at the moment (it may continue to fall).

I really want to tell everyone: you must pay attention to Ai Agents. This is no longer a Meme, nor a low-quality project. Perhaps you currently have the same biases as I did at the beginning, avoiding low-quality projects and the secondary market, but now the market is different. Ai Agents have just started to gain momentum, and leading tokens with a market value of 10 billion have yet to appear. In the future, at least 80% will move towards the direction of Ai agents.
Number 3 shares with everyone three small-cap tokens from the community: GRIFT, shared at a price of 0.024, peaked at 0.11, nearly 5 times profit, currently retracing to 0.076, still nearly 3 times. NORA, shared at a price of 0.0019, peaked at 0.017, 9 times profit. TETSUO, the price when asking everyone to pay attention was around 0.017, now at 0.045, 2 times profit.

The Solayer project has just announced its new listing, with a total fundraising amount of 3%, or 10.5 million. Looking at the project's valuation, it can be said that those qualified to participate in the new listing stand to earn. Conservatively, it should at least double.
But the only bottleneck is the need for overseas KYC; it does not work for Mainland China. If you have overseas resources or other channels, you can do KYC first. Just go to the official website, link your wallet, and complete KYC as required.
The time is from 10 AM (UTC) on January 13 to 11:59 PM (UTC) on January 14. You can participate using SOL, USDT, or USDC on the SOL chain. The minimum investment is equivalent to 100 USDT, and the maximum is equivalent to 2000 USDT. However, since only 10.5 million is being raised, it's likely going to be a race against time.
