Trading Moment: “TACO-Trade” Leads the Crypto Rebound—Bitcoin Back at $115 k, a New Cycle Begins?
Market Snap-back & Leverage Reset A single sound-bite did the trick. After Trump and Vance struck a noticeably softer tone on the U.S.–China trade war, equity futures flashed green and crypto followed in a violent relief rally. The brutal draw-down that preceded it is already being framed as the pivotal “cycle flip” of 2025. Funding rates on perpetual swaps have collapsed to lows last seen in the depths of the 2022 bear, proof that the market has just lived through one of the deepest de-lever...

Which New AI Projects Are Worth Researching Ahead of the Hype?
Discovering protocols before they become hot topics and sharing them with you is extremely interesting. In my earlier "Be Early" series, I introduced projects like @TopHat_One, @Duck_Chain, @Cortex_Protocol, and @Infinit_Labs. These insights mainly come from the Moni Discover tool by @getmoni_io, an intelligent platform that helps users discover early-stage protocols. So, what new findings are on my January watchlist? Let's take a look! Limitus: A New Platform Integrating Web2, Web3, and AI @...

A New Way to Launch: Bonding-Curve TGE for RION
Today at 16:00 UTC, Binance Wallet will debut its first-ever Bonding-Curve Token Generation Event (TGE), releasing the native token RION of Aptos-native DEX Hyperion. Participation is limited to users who hold Binance Alpha points; pricing and liquidity will be determined in real time by an on-chain bonding curve.
Protocol Design: Hybrid Order-Book + AMM + Aggregator
Hyperion is a hybrid decentralized exchange built natively on Aptos. It fuses an on-chain order book with concentrated-liquidity AMM (think Uniswap V3) and a novel Directional Liquidity Market Maker (DLMM).
DLMM dynamically concentrates liquidity within price bands, delivering zero-slippage swaps even for volatile assets.
Aggregator Router, launched in June, splits routes across every Aptos DEX to surface the best price and lowest slippage.
Full-Stack Trading Layer adds limit orders, yield vaults, and Drips incentives, all powered by Aptos’s parallel execution engine.
Funding Backing: OKX, Maelstrom, Aptos Labs
In April 2025 Hyperion closed a strategic round led by OKX Ventures and Aptos Labs. Maelstrom (Arthur Hayes’ family office) and Mirana Ventures followed on; amounts were not disclosed.
On-Chain Metrics: Volume King of Aptos
$6.5 B cumulative volume since launch
$1.3 B TVL (Total Value Locked) as of July
$1.25 – 1.5 B average daily volume; peak at $1.74 B
Top-12 global DEX by 30-day volume ($4 B+) per DefiLlama
940 k cumulative on-chain participants
Dual-Token Economy: RION & xRION
RION (100 M max supply) is the tradable utility token—used for fees, rewards, and governance.
xRION is a non-transferable escrow token earned by staking RION for up to 52 weeks; voting power decays linearly to incentivize long-term alignment.
5 % of total RION is reserved for a genesis airdrop: 3 % unlocked at TGE, 2 % vested linearly over the following month.
Airdrop & Community Incentives
Users accumulate Drips points via trading, LPing, or completing quests. Points translate directly into airdrop eligibility and Launchpad whitelist spots. An extra lottery reserves RION for ~800 random wallets that qualified for the original 2022 Aptos airdrop.
How the Binance Wallet TGE Works
Window: July 16, 16:00–18:00 UTC
Cap: 3 BNB per user
Mechanism: BNB is locked in the bonding-curve contract; RION price updates with every purchase.
Trading: During the two-hour window, RION is only tradable inside the event page. After closure, unsold BNB is refunded and all RION becomes freely transferable.
Aptos Ecosystem Snapshot
Aptos now hosts 187 live projects, leads rival Move-based chain Sui in daily active users (~1 M vs 830 k), and has cultivated a $633 M stable-coin market cap . Hyperion’s liquidity infrastructure is positioned as the go-to hub for this rapidly expanding ecosystem.
