https://t.co/NwKtpmjAws — a painful one to write about, another sale coming to Kraken/Legion. The exchange messed up badly earlier, and the Legion CEO is… well, a questionable character.
They hyped sport-cards on Base, made a lot of money, but apparently not enough — now they’re doing an ICO. According to them, “token distribution will be based on merit, not FCFS.”
This likely means Legion will filter wallets in their own way, while Kraken will apply its own requirements (account age, trading activity, Kraken+ subscription), then distribute allocations to “top scorers,” with a small portion reserved for random selection.
Waiting for more sale details

MetaDAO ICM Model ICO 🚀

MetaDAO offers a new model - “un-ruggable” ICOs under Internet Capital Markets - combining fundraising, liquidity, and community-aligned governance.
How their sales run:
• Projects raise via committed USDC over a fixed window (usually 4 days).
• MetaDAO uses a discretionary cap: if total committed exceeds the cap, investors receive a proportional share of tokens and refunds of excess USDC.
• After sale success, all funds go into a market-governed treasury; minting authority for new tokens moves to that treasury.
Post-sale liquidity & tokenomics:
• Immediately ~20% of raised USDC + a defined token amount are locked into on-chain liquidity pools (AMM) to back initial liquidity.
• The treasury acts as a stabilizer — it buys tokens below ICO price and sells above — helping protect early investors from crashes.
Team incentives & unlocks:
• Founder & team allocations are structured as performance-based unlocks. Up to 50% of initial supply can be locked into tranches that unlock only when token price hits thresholds: 2×, 4×, 8×, 16×, 32× ICO price.
• Unlock schedule is locked at a minimum (e.g. 18 months from ICO), and only triggers if the performance conditions are met — this aligns team incentives with long-term value creation, not a quick dump.
Governance & ongoing control:
• MetaDAO isn’t just a launchpad — it also provides a “decision markets” layer: tokenholders vote with markets on future spending or treasury decisions instead of traditional voting.
• To spend more than the monthly budget, projects must run proposals and get market-backed approval - giving the community control over use of raised funds.
Why this model matters:
• It reduces risk of “rug pulls” because funds are locked, minting authority is shifted to a transparent treasury and token-holder control.
• Liquidity is automatic and on-chain, lowering chance of dump at listing.
• Token launches become more community-aligned: founders unlock rewards only if token value grows; investors know there’s a mechanism to preserve liquidity and tokenholders have governance rights.
What happens if sale fails:
• If minimum raise isn’t met, all USDC commitments are refunded.
Overall: MetaDAO’s ICM-based ICO model is a departure from traditional token launches. It bundles fair fundraising, on-chain liquidity, investor protection, and on-chain governance — trying to finally create sustainable, aligned fundraising in crypto, not just quick speculative launches.
On the screenshot below you can see the sales that have already taken place on this platform.

Aztec suddenly launched its sale - honestly should’ve died two years ago, but here we are.

sale starts on dec 2.
4 days left to register.
the team confirmed there will be no airdrop at all- not for old users, not for new ones. only the sale. 300k wallets allowed.
the crazy part: all tokens from the public sale are non-refundable and locked for 12 months, with a possible reduction to 90 days if leadership votes for it.
any node runners here? what do you think about the project and the tech?

"sad to say it, but after 7 years it’s time to say goodbye. we made the hard call to close the platform. We’ve been through bull runs and brutal bear markets, but keeping something this big alive just isn’t possible anymore.
In the coming days we’ll start winding everything down. we’ll stop tracking blockchains and dapps, and connected services will be turned off step by step. info about the DAO and our token will be shared separately.
THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO TRUSTED US ALL THESE YEARS

Many of us saw the news yesterday that Coinbase added TON trading to their exchange. Even though most posts only shared the link to X, what does this actually mean for the blockchain and users?

Coinbase officially added spot trading for TON across all their platforms (Coinbase, Coinbase Advanced, Coinbase Exchange and Coinbase Prime). This is a long-awaited moment for the TON community because due to old regulatory risks from the 2019 SEC vs Telegram/Gram case, TON was unavailable on the biggest regulated U.S. exchange.

Usually, after a Coinbase listing we see the “Coinbase Effect” — the coin jumps 30–200% within a few days. But TON didn’t show that explosive move. Let’s figure out why the listing is still one of the biggest milestones in the project’s history and what it means for the blockchain and regular users in the current market. 🧠

Coinbase is probably the strictest and most regulated crypto platform in the U.S. They don’t add assets “just because,” like other exchanges do. Before any listing, their legal and compliance teams review every part of the project for months. The fact that TON passed this review basically closes the 2019 conflict, when the SEC stopped the Gram token sale. Now even the U.S. regulator recognizes TON as a legitimate, safe, compliant asset.
This isn’t just another exchange — it’s a seal of approval from the strictest player in the market, like a Michelin star for a restaurant.

What changes for the blockchain? 🤔

🔵 First, direct access opens to more than 110 million real Coinbase users, many of whom are in the U.S. and Europe. Previously, TON was a “grey token” for them — hard to buy legally and difficult to hold in a regulated portfolio. Now any American can buy TON with a card in a minute.

🔵 Second, the institutional channel activates. Through Coinbase Prime, large funds, family offices and corporations can now enter TON with big volumes, take loans against it, stake it on an institutional level, and report everything cleanly to auditors and regulators.

🔵 Third, after Coinbase, we usually see listings on Robinhood, Kraken, Gemini (partially already) — and then conversations begin about a potential spot TON ETF.

🔵 And most importantly, TON remains the only major L1 blockchain integrated into an app with almost one billion users — Telegram.

What does this give to regular users right now? 🧠

🔵 If you use mini-apps, gifts and similar — now you can top up TON directly from Coinbase, no P2P, no offshore exchanges, no extra risks
🔵 If you’re a U.S. resident — TON stops being a “grey” token and becomes a normal legal asset
🔵 If you’re a trader — you get deeper liquidity and near-zero fees on Coinbase Advanced
🔵 If you’re a fund — you can finally add TON to your portfolio officially

Conclusion:

Yes, there’s no pump yet. Yes, price may even dip a bit more. Yes, the market is bearish, and many unlocks are ahead.
But the Coinbase listing is exactly the event that moves TON from “promising but risky blockchain” into “top-tier legitimate blockchain.”
For long-term holders and the whole ecosystem, this may be the most important news of the last year and a half. The market isn’t showing it in the price yet — but it’s showing it in fundamentals. And TON’s fundamentals are now among the strongest in the industry.

No matter how much FUD is in the community, we believe the TF team is moving in the right direction — slowly but surely. Let’s hope for a market reversal or even a short bounce that could give TON the momentum it needs for more growth and attention.

Base App — a must-have for everyone waiting for a Base airdrop💻
Coinbase is quietly but confidently pushing their new app - Base App.
It’s basically their own version of X / Farcaster, built directly into a wallet.
And the most important part:
everyone who registers gets an NFT with beta access.
Very likely this NFT will become a multiplier or a requirement for a future Base airdrop.
How to get in?
NFT = your ticket into the app.

There are three ways to get access:
✔ get an invite on Farcaster
✔ get an invite on X (there are tons in themed threads)
✔ join the waitlist and wait for access

What can you do inside Base App?
The app is still in beta, but there’s already plenty to do:
🟢 Create content
It’s a social network where you can not only post but also earn from posts.
So activity here = potential points and multipliers.
🟢 Use the built-in wallet
Swaps, storage, buying tokens — full wallet functionality.
🟢 Try mini-apps
There are apps for everything:
games, productivity, health, social tools — always something to play with.

Some weird things
Base App looks almost exactly like Farcaster, and a lot of features overlap.
And Farcaster even connects to Base App already.
It’s unclear why they made a separate app — maybe preparation for a big Base ecosystem launch.

Important insights
💬 Recently the CEO said that sybils are “not a problem but more like a plus for the ecosystem.”
So yeah, you can farm multipliers, but don’t overdo it - the razor always comes eventually.
🔥 On December 17 Coinbase has a mysterious announcement.
No one knows what it is - new product, major release, or… the Base token? Either way, Base App looks like a platform you should start using now, while it’s still in beta and there’s almost no competition.

Imagine deciding to become a polytrader.
You don’t need anything special for it.
Just some USDT on your wallet/phone/internet
Once you understand how the mechanics work you can make a solid yearly income.
You just need to dive in and actually learn how it all works - that’s it.
And .... lets play together
