UNDER THE RADAR?

Lately, phrases like “hidden gem,” “no-shill project,” or the classic “low-cap, no-hype 100x” have basically become code for “some broke protocol that might never even list.” The reality is there’s barely any real buy pressure left projects avoid spending on MM, airdrop buybacks, or proper marketing, while valuations and raises are inflated, and now people actually notice. The number of new launches is 100x higher than a few years ago, so even with a clean-looking team, a project can still rug in endless creative ways if they’ve raised enough. And no one’s surprised anymore.

The question is: why would a broke, no-shill project on Hyper/Base/Sui/etc. reward you at all? For every @WalrusProtocol with a decent raise, there are 50+ worthless clones — most won’t raise another round, some won’t even launch. Kresko had a small loyal testnet user base, spent years building… and still shut down. Plenty of teams ghosted on @Starknet . @EclipseFND , @SuccinctLabs .. same story.

Then there’s the “farm meta,” where no-name projects expect you to farm liquidity with $2K user bases but $50M TVL. Add smart contract risk and linear point dilution, and it’s a “dream scenario” only in sarcasm. The truth is most so-called “under-the-radar” gems are recognized only in hindsight. Even @HyperliquidX — 99.9% either did everything blindly and got lucky, or followed some giga cope thread. The “aha moment” comes only after launch.

In today’s market of greedy valuations and fake scarcity, your only shot at catching a real under-the-radar play is by literally doing everything or trusting someone’s very loud conviction. Otherwise, it’s all just noise. DYOR…

I just call it like I see it .

A new era of compliant ICOs is here

Today, @krakenfx joins forces with @legiondotcc

This partnership scales Legion’s reach ×100 — to 15M+ Kraken users

Here’s why it matters 🧵

[Alex DeLarge @ClockWork_eth]

@Cryptophileee As always, thanks for the breakdown. Am I right in understanding that you only look at returns calculations for ICOs?

[Alex DeLarge @ClockWork_eth]

@Cryptophileee @USDai_Official Thanks, it's really smart!

[Cryptophile @Cryptophileee]

The craziest stablecoin imbalance I’ve ever seen 👇

$USDai caps are maxed. Curve pools are broken.

Demand is only heating up. $USDai = 1.04 $USDC!

Here’s how to farm Allo points WITHOUT holding $USDai 🧵

@ProMint_X @almanak I checked today, and at the moment they have already stopped deposits

[Alex DeLarge @ClockWork_eth]

I don’t even dare to guess the project and its valuation at this point — and the thought of how many participants and the presubscription numbers could be is even scarier..

which project do you think it's gonna be?

[Charles Guillemet @P3b7_]

🚨 There’s a large-scale supply chain attack in progress: the NPM account of a reputable developer has been compromised. The affected packages have already been downloaded over 1 billion times, meaning the entire JavaScript ecosystem may be at risk.

The malicious payload works by silently swapping crypto addresses on the fly to steal funds.

If you use a hardware wallet, pay attention to every transaction before signing and you're safe.

If you don’t use a hardware wallet, refrain from making any on-chain transactions for now.

It’s still unclear whether the attacker is also stealing seeds from software wallets directly at this stage.

Excellent report here: https://t.co/5CtiZJHYsN

@ProMint_X @Everlyn_ai Already shilled it on my side🤝

[Alex DeLarge @ClockWork_eth]

I recommend reading this post carefully. Having a product is always a good thing, but it needs to actually work. @ProMint_X 🤝

$250M ICO or just exit liquidity?

I sat down to research @Everlyn_ai (yes, the one backed by Mysten Labs / SUI fund).

The deeper I went → the weirder it got.

Valuation: $250M pre-TGE

GitHub? Last real update: 1 year ago. They only touched the ReadMe 6 months back.

Roadmap: literally TGE Q1 2025 …and nothing else. No product goals. No milestones. No vision.

Link: https://t.co/zDfmjWGZms

Translation: raise → launch token → cash out → fade.

They hype an AI text-to-video agent… but on their own website it doesn’t even work.

I even generated a “revolutionary” video in 10 minutes to show how laughably low the bar is.

My take:

This looks less like a $250M project and more like a speedrun to liquidity.
And yet, in this market, people will ape in anyway.

Don’t just trust big VCs on the cap table.
Do your own digging most of the time the red flags aren’t even hidden.

@MilanaMayes What next? - %apr on DEFI?😅

@k1rallik @Everlyn_ai Overall, I feel the same way

Everlyn x Kaito Launchpad

@Everlyn_ai - an artificial intelligence model for video processing on a decentralized layer 1 (L1) using AI.

▫️TGE - happening this month, 100% unlocked at TGE.

•Connect your wallet on Everlyn (must be the same wallet as on Kaito for verification) by September 8, 2025, 2:00 UTC

25% bonus:

•Connect your wallet on Everlyn (must be the same wallet as on Kaito) by September 8, 2025, 2:00 UTC

P.S. Looks interesting given that the creators of Sui, Mysten Labs, invested. But in fact, apart from revealing their influence in Sui itself, there weren’t many other cases. If the valuation were 3–4x lower, it would look really tasty. With a 50% bonus, it’s better, but still questionable, since there’s always the risk they won’t honor it. As for the product itself, it’s hard to evaluate right now. Still thinking.

@ProMint_X I almost got scared that there would be bad news about Lombard😅

[Alex DeLarge @ClockWork_eth]

@kar4arodon @Everlyn_ai The team there is definitely strong.

[Alex DeLarge @ClockWork_eth]

@one9n1ne @coinbase @PanteraCapital I just remembered Karak and only now realized that it hasn’t even launched yet..

@kar4arodon @almanak DeFi has come back to life again, and I really like projects like that
