As we slowly but surely move into summer, global markets as a whole tend to slow down and range for a while, and crypto is no different. Bitcoin ranging, alts not really moving significantly, trenches lacking volume... It can get quite boring.
But that doesn't mean you shouldn't be taking this downtime as an opportunity to participate in Web3 activities to secure future rewards & airdrops!
This edition of the LebThree newsletter will be a little different from usual. Today we will be covering 3 Web3 activities you can focus on this summer, to make sure you are always stacking, and never lacking. Let's do it!
You've probably already heard the term "Attention Economy", and while this is usually refers to popular social media platforms like Instagram & TikTok, but now; especially with the rise of InfoFi, the same applies for twitter.
Now, if you believe it's too hard and time consuming to create good content and get engagement, allow me to paint a picture for you.
In traditional media, top influencers often get tens of millions of views per post, along with millions of likes and comments. On CT? Our biggest influencers average 40k views. Thats absurdly low compared to traditional media.
And guess what? They are all making BAGS.
This is one of those opportunities that rarely presents itself: Where everyone has the chance to get a piece of the pie. This summer, everyone should be taking advantage of InfoFi and it's offerings. Do not be lazy and fade this.
Simply go to the "Earn" section of the Kaito dashboard, and choose one of the projects that you like / believe in. There's currently 41 different projects running reward campaigns, and some of them are very under-farmed.
Of course, new accounts will have a tougher time climbing the leaderboards, but it doesn't mean it's impossible. Here are a few tips I have used to boost engagements on my posts despite not having a large following:
Be Very Active: The X algorithm loves active posters, try to post at least once a day, and reply as much as you can
Use Tags: Tagging the projects you are yapping about, and using relevant tickers greatly increases your exposure
Always Use Images: This one applies for posts. Use nice visuals (Which you can create with GPT) to create a bigger footprint
Join Communities: Every project listed on Kaito has a dedicated yapper community, make sure to join them
Create Good Content: Try to be as unique as possible, don't post AI generated slop
Help Each Other: Having a group of friends or community that you know can have you boost each other's posts with engagement, helping each other can be key for smaller accounts!
If people are interested, we could create a channel for LebThree yappers to post their contents and engage with each other!
Bottom line is, everyone should at least try to hop on this trend. It will not last forever, but building a brand is extremely important, especially in Web3.
If you hold crypto in your wallet, you are doing something wrong.
Your coins should always be somewhere, doing something, or as TradFi's messiah likes to say:
Let's breakdown what you should do with your coins in 3 sections: Bitcoin, Alts, and Stables:
BtcFi or BitcoinFinance has exploded lately. As Bitcoin gains in popularity, more and more people are looking to harness it's liquidity and earn yield on their assets.
Lombard does just that with it's $LBTC, which allows users to restake their $BTC and earn yield through Lombard's protocol fees & strategies. But it gets better, as that $LBTC can be deposited on SatLayer which earns you even more yield.
This is all even sweeter since both these protocols do not have a token yet, and all your positions earn points for their TGE. This strategy puts your Bitcoin to WORK!
Nowadays, most altcoins like Eth, Sol, Sui, etc... Have LSTs, or Liquid Staked Tokens. Those LSTs allow users to earn staking rewards on their coins without locking them, meaning users are able to use them in DeFi.
Let's take Solana for example: The leading staking platform is Fragmetrics with their fragSOL at the moment. Users stake their $SOL, and receive $fragSOL.
$fragSOL earns about 7% APY thanks to Solana's staking rewards. Users can then lend that fragSOL on platforms like Loopscale which will earn them even more APY.
And of course, all your positions are earning Frag & Loopscale points for even MORE rewards.
Crypto markets work in tons of different ways, but are all fueled by a single currency: the USD.
Lending your USD in Web3 can be very rewarding, and with the latest PayFi innovation that is Huma Finance, users can earn 10% APY on their stables, while farming other protocols
Simply go to Huma's website and choose $PST. That $PST now earns 10% APY, and you can deposit it on other platforms like RateX to earn further fees
As you already guessed it, all those positions also earn points for $HUMA & RateX airdrops. This makes your money go further.
So we've talked about how you could optimize your online presence & capital, but what about your devices?
We've talked about DePin before, but some new projects have been making waves in the DePin landscape that are worth looking at:
Gradient is the new hot thing on the DePin block after raising $10 Million in their seed round, led by Pantera & Multicoin Capital to expand its DePIN-based AI compute network.
Gradient is a DePIN project that builds a decentralized GPU compute network by incentivizing users to contribute idle GPU power from gaming rigs, data centers, or edge devices.
Users earn rewards by providing computing power to AI workloads, while developers get affordable, scalable access to decentralized GPU infrastructure.
You can find the Gradient extension on Chrome and start participating today!
Naoris is a cybersecurity-focused DePIN project that replaces centralized security systems with a decentralized “CyberMesh” of validator nodes.
Every connected device verifies the trustworthiness of others in real time, improving resilience against cyberattacks. By incentivizing security checks with crypto rewards, Naoris turns network participants into active defenders of digital infrastructure.
The project has raised over $3 million in their strategic round in May 2025 led by Mason Labs.
You can also find the Naoris extension on Chrome and start defending the internet today!
Grass is a DePIN project that turns unused internet bandwidth into a decentralized data-collection layer for the AI economy. By running a browser extension or app, users contribute to scraping publicly available web data, earning crypto rewards in return.
Grass already launched its token and completed Season 1 of its airdrop. The project is now in Season 2, continuing to reward contributors as it scales.
Backed by $3.5 million in seed funding and a token sitting at $1B FDV, Grass's second season should be rewarding
Grass's extension can be found on Chrome, but their app usually has a better uptime / point boost. You can download it today and start racking up points.
