As I mentioned, building and coding are not required.

We obtain the "talent passport" which serves as proof of wallet activity in Talent Protocol. For talent points, you will receive a Daily Budget. If you want more, hold $BUILD.

Every 24 hours, you can "nominate" three people. Each one receives one-third of the daily tips. The main difference from Farcaster tips is that you cannot nominate the same person again in a season. Look for mutual exchanges in /BUILD in Warpcast, and you can nominate me here.

Since the initial sale in Party App, the token has increased x20+. No pressure is expected until the end of the first season, which means a generous feed is possible.

In June, tips will be converted into $BUILD — 15% of the supply will be distributed according to the leaderboard positions. Free activity with the potential for farm driving.

There is much less confidence in substantial rewards in subsequent seasons.

Below the radar criteria that will bring your wallet to the top 5% and feed you in the future.

1. Get 100+ tx for literally 1$, you can mint NFTs through $IMAGINE or $ENJOY memcoins. You can abuse my collection here, leaving comments when minting is strictly recommended

2. A volume of $1k+ can be easily done with a couple of swaps on Zora Energy

3. The official Zora Energy bridge is probably the only commission-free bridge (via the instant tab)

4. Link Farcaster to your Zora profile — CEO Jacob mentioned this many times

5. NFT from Jacob and Zora Imagine — were already a multiplier for the ENJOY drop

6. Write and mint a couple of articles in Paragraph + Mirror - On May 2, the main platform for longreads, Paragraph, bought competitors Mirror. The site is in close partnership with Farcaster and Zora

1. Farcaster Power Badge is a lightning bolt badge issued to active Farcaster users. The first drops for badge holders have already arrived. Can be a good drop multiplier

2. Create Frame — Farcaster micro apps. Creating frames for a fark is an analogy for deploying a smart contract for a blockchain. A couple of frames are definitely not superfluous. 1 click deployment can be done through Frame Maker

• Follow the Onchain thread in Farcaster

Time passed, the dinosaurs became extinct, and reading spam evolved into "SEO promotion with live subscribers". A bunch of dead Facebook and Twitter accounts eagerly liked and subscribed to thousands of groups and profiles, earning 0.001$ per action.

And here it is—the era of Web 3.0. Websites are no longer in demand. It's the era of mobile phones. A bunch of schoolchildren and Indians are tapping on the single button on the screen hoping for a lifecoin. But surprise—tapping isn't as profitable as completing tasks and subscribing to a couple of groups and a couple of chats, for which you can earn up to 100,000 points. It reminds of something...

Prediction: $1 for 1,000,000 Notcoin. Only influencers who mercilessly drive the workforce into the referral program, aka squads, will earn. The usability for workers is to boost groups and click on banners.

A normal earn begins with cutting off freeloaders, as it was at the beginning of Stepn with cross-platforms for $2,000.

PoH, aka Proof of Humanity, will significantly complicate the lives of sybil farms. And it's not about KYC, which can be passed with the help of a dozen Indonesians and a few five-dollar bills. It's about the age of the wallet, about the score calculated from a conditional formula: the number of transactions multiplied by the number of days since the very first.

The "age" of the wallet is the only thing that cannot be artificially inflated. Buying a "warmed-up" wallet on the secondary market, like a Twitter account, won't work. It's unlikely that a crypto enthusiast would want to replenish a wallet whose previous owner knows the seed. We are waiting for the introduction of changing privates as in Starknet and a new section of the OTC market.

In the future, they will also attach non-transferable NFTs with Web 3 activity to the wallet's age. An empty Farcaster / Lens / DeBank Stream? Looks like you're a bot, my friend, no retrodrop for you!

The essence is that even Binance traders and grandmothers could use "Metamask" without guides, leading to mass adoption. This time for sure. The wallet's public/private key pair transforms into smart contracts, opening up a myriad of customization possibilities. This includes sending stablecoins without using ETH for gas fees, programmable spending limits like allowing no more than $1000 per week, whitelisting addresses for token transfers, and even the coveted "forgot password" button for those unable to write down 12 words on paper. You can already try it out, for example, with the Argent wallet.

Two questions: Will it be hacked like decentralized exchanges (DEXs), and will there be a backdoor for a regulator that imposes a sanctioned limit of $10k? However, the implementation of the idea will involve Ethereum maintainers, increasing the chances of security holes being addressed.

...and the name is quite strange. What's this? Abstraction? They could have at least called it "smart-accounts."

• Vitalik's article on wallet recovery

• Description of abstractions in the Ethereum roadmap

As of now, the idea has been implemented in the form of ERC-4337.

Stay Focused

Conscious diversification into 10-20 assets, no more — that's what's needed. Remember Pareto's Law: 20% of asset efforts bring 80% of profit results. Cover sectors, not just protocols. Instead of 5 L2 sector coins, assemble a top tier from NFT, GameFi, Social, Oracle, DeFi, L2, etc. The sector's hype pushes all incoming tokens.

Build a Team

Being a bullrun means many new projects, many new altcoins, many new launchpads every 24 hours. Keeping up with everything solo is challenging. Gather like-minded individuals, create a group chat, and divide responsibilities while exploring information fields. In the evening, delve deeper into the researched information in voice chat.

Hype > Fundamental

Follow the threads. Hype will be fluid. The bull market trend sequence in 2021-22: DeFi > NFT > Metaverse > Move to earn. Those who adapted and jumped in on time are sitting on millions of dollars; others hope to recoup their Chia hard drive farms and Stepn sneakers to this day.

Unsubscribe from Influencers

Influencers with a large number of followers during the bullrun will attract rivers of money, especially to YouTubers. Any scam will be shilled, promising thousands of Xs. The task of influencers is to create FOMO to execute the advertising contract. Some will try to sell Solana at $250, others will push into Ponzi schemes. Monetary losses, of course, convert into experience, but don't convert the entire bank.

Balance

Think rationally. Fixing profit when a coin has given +30% is not smart, but forgetting that the bull market will end sooner or later is unwise. Sell the main portfolio if there are significant "Xs." Don't imagine buying a Lamborghini on an unsecured deposit. Keep an eye on the euphoria index. Particularly productive individuals may keep a diary; reviewing one's own thoughts is refreshing.

1. "Hamster" case

The Hamster joined the crypto world a week ago. The Hamster has a fondness for USDT on the Tron network. The Hamster prefers interfaces from the manufacturer, and connecting the wallet to MetaMask induces fainting spells.

• Tangem — Private key embedded in a plastic card; lose the card, lose the funds, no 12-word recovery phrase. The only backup option is to buy a bunch of cards and clone them. No connection to third-party interfaces. But perfect for a hamster who fears losing a seed phrase.

• SafePal — Budget-friendly, visually appealing. Generates a seed — you'll need to find a hiding spot. Convenient mobile interface and browser extension. Supports various shields. The first hardware wallet to embrace Aptos. Occasionally offers drops for wallet owners.

• Trezor — The oldest player in the market. Slow to add new tokens. PC-only, no mobile connectivity. Hamsters buy Trezor, then find out it doesn't support USDT on Tron.

• Ledger — The first thing a hamster buying Ledger does is ask in the chat: "Why doesn't Ledger Live show BUSD balance?" Token prices don't update in Ledger Live, only coins. For most blockchains, you need to use third-party extensions. A bit challenging for a hamster unless "growing into it."

🏆 Crancho choice — SafePal.

2. "DeFi King" case

DeFi King regularly swaps assets using hardware wallets, signs approvals, and provides liquidity.

• Trezor — Supports only EVM. Okay for using PancakeSwap, but not suitable for other platforms.

• SafePal — Similar to the above. Convenient for staking in the native app, but limited in some aspects. Can't connect to Solana, can't provide liquidity in Aptos. Scanning QR codes in the dark is a hassle. Swapping tokens requires 8 actions: QR scanning for WalletConnect → password input → 2 scans for approval → password input → 2 scans for swap → password input. For enthusiasts...

• Ledger — Ahead of the game. You can swap Polkadots here and indulge in Solana NFTs. You'll have to switch apps on bridges. Beautiful, but don't buy the discontinued old S model, it has limited memory. The Nano X model allows working with Macs and mobiles via Bluetooth.

🏆 Crancho choice — Ledger.

3. "Bitcoin maximalist" case

No shitcoins! No centralization and trust in manufacturer interfaces! Bitcoin only!

• Trezor — There is a 'Bitcoin only' firmware that disables all altcoins and expands functionality. But why bother?

• Tapsigner — A credit card that allows signing Bitcoin transactions via NFC. Convenient and affordable. Currently works only with Nunchuk wallet. For PC, you'll need to purchase an NFC reader.

• Coldcard — The best in the market for a true Bitcoiner. Generates paper wallets, subaccounts, has an NFC module, self-destructs with a PIN, and anti-phishing protection. Once you understand its functionality, you'll feel like a true cypherpunk. Hamster, don't get involved, it will devour you.

• Passport — Almost like Coldcard, but without NFC. Instead, it has a camera. You can sign Bitcoin transactions via QR. Scanning in the dark is a hassle.

🏆 Crancho choice — Coldcard.

4. "HODL" case

The crucial aspect for long-term HODLing is the absence of a battery. Without regular use, batteries die after a couple of years. It's also advisable to steer clear of the manufacturer's interface. You never know what might happen to the manufacturer when Bitcoin hits a million.

For Altcoiners:

• Trezor — No battery, not tied to the manufacturer's interface. EVM can be accessed through MetaMask, but for other coins, you may need to look for workarounds.

• Ledger — Choose the Nano S model, it has no battery. It's advisable to update it every six months through Ledger Live. There have been cases where, after two years of HODLing, interfaces couldn't detect the hardware due to outdated firmware.

For Bitcoiners:

• Coldcard — Has no manufacturer's interface on purpose. Compatible with any Bitcoin wallet. No battery. Allows exporting an encrypted seed to industrial-grade MicroSD.

• Passport — The first version uses button batteries, the newer one has a detachable battery in the form factor of Nokia 3310. After HODLing, batteries are easily available.

🏆 Crancho choice — Ledger / Coldcard.

Postscriptum

What is the safest? The one you know how to handle. Adhere to crypto hygiene. All mentioned are equally reliable if: you store your seed correctly, don't sign unclear approvals, and don't fall for phishing. I leave the tales of secure chips and open-source code to reviewers. No one will be using a multimillion-dollar laser to crack open your wallet with a $5,000 balance.

BasePaint — an activity for creative hodlers. It's like the Aptos paint event, but with payment, and on Base. Developers promise profits from $100 to $600 daily. The numbers in promises and statistics don't quite match yet, but the service is still developing.

The essence is simple: every day a new canvas, a theme for the painting, and a color palette. At the end of the 24-hour timer, the art is packed into an NFT with an infinite mint, promoted by the project's accounts, and all the earned ETH is distributed among the artists. Then there's voting for the theme of the new day, and it all starts again.

The catch is the minting brush. Brushes are only supposed to be obtained after the form is approved. You'll have to draw yourself or hire freelancers for art as an example of your work. And without a brush, an artist is not an artist. What will you paint with, your finger?

• Check Art Gallery

And it's also a cheap retroactivity on the Base blockchain.

Everything described below is likely to wipe out your bank. Use at your own peril, risking a couple of percent of your deposit... or go all in, YOLO! The decision is yours.

What do you know about meme coins? Have you heard of Shailushai? Have you at least heard of PEPE? In April 2023, one whale bought PEPE at $250 and a few weeks later exchanged the tokens for $1,000,000. PEPE grew by 21,000%, in a bear market. Did FOMO kick in?

1. Let's start the search

It's important to understand that the maximum growth occurs in the first minutes after liquidity is poured into the pair. Each person determines the golden mean between research and missed opportunities with 'X' factors, but without a superficial analysis, the chance of earning is close to zero.

Dex Screener is the terminal of swaps, where the journey into the so-called 'fucking deep' begins. The New Pair tab with sorting by novelty shows only newly created pairs. You need to play around with the liquidity filter—less liquidity means faster takeoff, but more often it's a scam. Find the balance.

At the very bottom, in the center, there are filters where you can select specific blockchains. If your bank is $100, swapping on Ethereum with $20 gas fees doesn't make sense. To save time, I also recommend turning off BSC; 99.9% of it is likely a scam. The old-timer Ethereum and new networks like Base perform the best.

After configuring everything, save the link from the address bar so you don't have to set it up again next time.

The Makers column is an indicator of hype. If a token has been around for more than an hour with 20 unique interactions, it's probably not in demand. 200 is good, 300+ is excellent; snipers hunt and drive up the price. If a coin was released 5 minutes ago with a Makers score of 250, you better open it in a new tab quickly.

2. First look

Upon entering, the most important indicators are Go+ Security and Token Sniffer. Both show the enabled functions in the token contract. If Token Sniffer is 0/100, close the tab and go back to step #1. If Token Sniffer is 100/100, delve deeper.

3. Dangers

There are two main scam schemes:

1. Honey Pot, also known as Honeypot: This involves the impossibility of selling the purchased tokens because the sale is simply blocked in the contract. Only users from the whitelist, where only the creator's wallets are listed, can sell.

2. Rug Pull: This is the act of pulling the so-called rug. The token creator owns 99% of the supply and, after pumping the price, sells it off. Liquidity is drained from the pool, and the price goes to zero.

There are more sophisticated schemes, for example, involving manual blacklisting after purchase. But, as I warned in the disclaimer, these risks exist!

4. Checking Deeper

Copy the contract address from Dex Screener and take it to Detect Honey Pot. This tool simulates buying/selling, shows fees, and the percentage of tokens in the deployer's wallet. As you scroll down the site, you'll see the connection between wallets that interacted with the smart contract.

5. Social Media

The success of a meme depends on the speed of its spread. The more people know about it, the more they buy, and the higher the price. And the faster, the better. At this stage, once you are confident that the contract is not a scam, you proudly hit the project's Twitter button in Dex Screener.

Great when a new post with $token_ticker comes out every few minutes. Tweets with charts, like 'look how it's soaring,' are good too, but they are often made by bots. Memes, on the other hand, are driven by people, and the community is crucial.

Along with the ticker, they often tag the project's account. The number of followers plays a reverse role compared to serious projects. An account with 200,000 followers is more likely to spread a scam than an account with 200.

In the Twitter bio, you'll find the website and other social media links. Compare the contract address on the website with what's in the screener. Shields don't always have unique names. You can also check activity on Telegram or Discord.

6. Should you buy?

And here's the fork, two strategies:

1. Check the above in 1-2 minutes and jump in with both feet to not miss the growth of the first candles. It's usually the biggest, sometimes by several thousand percent.

2. Don't rush. It's good to thoroughly check the token. Buy on the first price pullback, with a correction to the 0.5 or 0.618 Fibonacci level—the 'second wave' strategy.

In the second strategy, you can leisurely buy 'manually,' lazily pressing the approve button, and even if the transaction doesn't go through the first time, you still have time to catch the rocket. The first strategy is more challenging. Telegram sniper bots can help here:

Banana Gun or Maestro — the functionality of both is similar: replenish the built-in wallet, specify slippage and maximum gwei. Don't forget to enable the built-in Anti-Rug. For each transaction, the bot will incur a commission of 0.5 - 1%. By the way, enthusiasts claim that Banana Gun works faster.

Instructions for the bots:

• Banana Gun

• Maestro

7. Selling?

If you guessed the rocket number and are already flying to the moon, don't be too greedy; take back your invested funds with a x3 profit by selling a third.

Use a large deposit; don't hit the order book too hard. Crashing the price due to low liquidity will cause panic selling by others. Lock in profits in portions of $300-500.

After securing the main profit, leave a 'moon bag' — a small amount just in case the token goes x1000.

8. Hunting for Alpha

The third secret strategy — don't buy. In Dex Screener, there's a tab with top traders. Look for guys who put in a little but took out a lot. Click on the wallets of all you find. In a new tab, EtherScan will open; copy the address and go to DeBank. Does the profile look human-like? If the wallet age is 3 days — discard it. If there's only one token in the balance — into the trash.

You can monitor the actions of those who passed the selection either in DeBank itself, but you'll have to manually click through the transactions of each. Or in the EtherDrops Tracking Bot — a Telegram bot with instant transaction notifications. Add > Wallet. In the free version, there's a limit of 20 wallets for tracking.

9. Postscript

Noticed that volume influx occurs somewhere between 18:00 to 4:00. If the price drops by morning, don't rush to sell — wait for prime time. Buying a token that has existed for more than 24 hours reduces both the likelihood of a scam and the 'X' factors.

Keep trying and trying again. Hone your eye. Even the guy from the beginning of the article, turning $250 into a million, found PEPE only on the 10th attempt.
