@MyFurfolio Five days in a whole week is such a relief. It doesn't have to be consecutive

[Furfolio @MyFurfolio]

I didn’t discover Binance Points because I earned them. I discovered them because I lost them. 💀

I opened my Binance Rewards Hub and saw one word I really didn’t want to see: “Expired.” 😭

My first thought was:

Wait... WHAT expired?

That’s when I realized I had been earning Binance Points from activity I was already doing...

without even knowing the Points existed.

And because I didn’t know they were there, I obviously wasn’t claiming them either. 💀

So yes, I somehow managed to earn rewards and waste them at the same time.

That’s how I finally learned how Binance Points actually work.

Eligible activity across Binance can earn you Points, but earning them is only step one.

You still have to go into the Rewards Hub and claim them within 14 days of issue.

Otherwise?

Exactly what happened to mine.

Expired. 😭

And the painful part is that claimed Points can be redeemed for available rewards like trading fee rebates, Futures free positions, Earn trial funds, VIP upgrades or Binance merchandise, depending on your region and eligibility.

I also found out there’s a 5-Day Weekly Bonus for completing qualifying daily tasks on 5 or more days in a week.

They don’t even have to be consecutive.

So basically, I learned about Binance Points because I accidentally let some of mine die first. 😭

If you already use Binance regularly, maybe open your Rewards Hub before your introduction to Binance Points looks like mine.

I always thought old phones had only two futures:

either sit in a drawer forever
or get sold for almost nothing 😭

Then I came across @Acurast and realized there’s actually a third option I had never thought about.

Your phone can become part of a decentralized cloud.

Acurast lets smartphones provide computing power to a distributed network, so developers can run workloads without relying only on traditional data centers.

And the person providing that compute can earn $ACU.

What made this interesting to me is that we keep hearing about how much more computing power AI, apps and Web3 will need...

while so many perfectly capable phones are literally sitting unused in people’s drawers.

Acurast is basically looking at that unused hardware and saying:

why not turn it into compute?

You can even onboard a compatible spare phone as a Compute Provider and let it contribute processing power to the network.

I genuinely never thought I’d look at an old phone and think “mini data center” 😂

But now I kind of do.

I was literally just trading on Binance like I normally do.

Then one day I opened the Rewards Hub and saw I had some Points there.

My first reaction was basically… wait, when and how did I earn these? 😭

That’s when I found out some of the activity I was already doing on Binance could earn Points.

Spot trading is one of them, but what surprised me more was seeing that even things like Convert, P2P / fiat deposits, bStocks and posting on Binance Square can be eligible too, depending on what’s available for your account.

So I had basically been earning rewards in the background without even knowing there was a whole Points system attached to it.

The process is pretty simple once you know it exists:
do eligible activity → earn Points → claim them in Rewards Hub → redeem them for available rewards.

And now I’m looking at my normal Binance activity very differently because some of the things I was already doing could actually count toward the same long-term rewards program.

The Square part especially surprised me.

I genuinely did not expect posting to be one of the ways to earn Points.

Have you checked your Rewards Hub yet? 👀

[Warfare Analysis @warfareanalysis]

Based on what I have gathered about the man:

He was truly a Muslim Arab legend. The man spent 22 years in Israeli prisons.

He learned Hebrew, established a research center focused on Israeli political and social studies in PRISON, and closely followed US politics.

He once told his Israeli prison interrogator:

“When I get out of prison, you will be in my place, and I will be in yours.”

He chose an impeccable timing for his “flood” operation.

One freed Palestinian captive who shared a cell with Sinwar said in an interview that when he saw Sinwar, he could not believe it. He thought Sinwar was dead. All he knew about Sinwar was what he had read: that he founded the Majd intelligence in the 1980s, an organization tasked with tracking collaborators and eliminating them.

When he told Sinwar that he thought he had been “martyred,” Sinwar replied:

“May Allah grant me the honour of martyrdom.”

He said he had never met anyone with strategic thinking like Sinwar.

Sinwar said Israel would not fall all at once: “Just as the Zionist project was built in stages, it will fall in stages.”

Yup, I totally understand why the Americans and Israelis hate this guy even after his death and keep posting memes about him. He tipped the first domino of their demise!

#OpenAI was supposed to release a new AI model.

Then they decided not to.

And the reason is actually a little scary.

The problem wasn’t that the AI wasn’t smart enough.

It was that @OpenAI wasn’t confident it would always stick to exactly what it was told to do.

Basically, imagine telling an AI:

“Do this one task.”

And the AI decides to take a few extra steps on its own.

Maybe it uses another tool.

Maybe it changes something you didn’t ask it to change.

Maybe it tells you the job is done, but it didn’t actually do everything the way you expected.

That’s the kind of problem OpenAI was reportedly seeing in testing.

And this made me realize how different AI is becoming now.

A few years ago, if ChatGPT gave you a bad answer, you just ignored it and asked again.

But now we’re moving toward AI that can actually do things for us.

Book something, use software, send information or even handle tasks.

Even work across different tools without us watching every single step.

That’s where it gets serious.

Because once AI can take actions, being “smart” isn’t enough.

It also has to know when to stop.

I keep seeing people say students should learn how to prompt AI.

And yes, they should.

But I think another skill is going to matter just as much:

knowing how to check what the AI actually did.

Because the future problem might not be:

“AI gave me the wrong answer.”

It might be:

“AI did something I never asked it to do.”

And that is where humans need to supervise AI more carefully.

@MyFurfolio That's actually lit 🤌

[Furfolio @MyFurfolio]

I opened P2P the other day because I needed some cash and nearly gave myself a mini heart attack.

My available balance was basically zero.

For about two seconds I was like...

Where did my crypto go? 😭

Then I remembered.

Most of it was sitting in Flexible Earn.

And I’ve done this before. If I want to use that money through P2P, I first have to leave P2P, go into Earn, redeem what I need, move it to the right account, then come back and place the order.

This is just one of those annoying little processes when all you’re trying to do is use money that is already yours.

But it made me realize something.

I’d basically been using my crypto in three modes:

Hold it.

Earn on it.

Or move it through P2P whenever I needed cash.

Then I started using the Binance Card, and this is where it became more interesting for me.

For eligible users, Flexible Earn can be enabled as a funding source for Card payments.

Meaning I don’t necessarily have to redeem my crypto from Flexible Earn, move it somewhere else, and then prepare it for spending first.

If those Earn funds are used for a Card payment, the amount needed is redeemed from Earn as part of the process.

And THAT was the bit I actually cared about.

Because I wasn’t looking for another fancy way to trade crypto.

I just wanted to buy something with crypto I already owned without turning it into a whole side quest. 😂

The Card can also handle the required conversion for supported transactions, so I’m not manually converting crypto into fiat every single time I want to pay for something.

Where available, eligible users can also add the Card to Google Wallet and use tap-to-pay.

Binance says the Card can be used across more than 90 million online and offline merchants worldwide, subject to availability and applicable terms.

The fact that the same crypto doesn’t have to feel like it’s locked into one purpose is the most useful thing.

I can hold it.

Earn on it.

Trade it.

And, when I actually need something, spend it too.

That sounds obvious when you write it out.

But I genuinely hadn’t thought about my crypto that way before.

Always DYOR and check Binance Card eligibility, availability and applicable terms for your region.

@MyFurfolio Your brother handed you the wallet and you still left it at home. I'm crying 😭

[Furfolio @MyFurfolio]

My brother was about five seconds away from roasting me on the side of the highway....

A few days ago, he was washing the car before we headed out and asked me to hold his wallet while he finished up.

I took it, put it on the table, got ready, grabbed my bag, and walked out.

Somehow, I left the wallet sitting at home. 😂

We made it halfway to our destination before the fuel light came on. My brother pulled into a petrol station and asked for his wallet.

That’s when I remembered exactly where it was.

At home!

Neither of us had cash, and we didn’t have enough local fiat available either.

I was already preparing myself for the lecture when I remembered I had my Binance Card on my phone.

I’d already added the virtual card to Google Wallet, so I simply tapped my phone on the payment terminal and the payment went through.

Everytime, with such an emergency, I always had to convert my crypto into fiat via P2P first. But with the Binance Card, I didn’t have to do this step.

The card could use my eligible crypto balance for the purchase, according to the applicable terms.

That was the moment Binance Card stopped feeling like “another crypto feature” to me.

I earn through content creation and scriptwriting, so I use my money for very normal things: fuel, food, bills, or paying my share when I’m out with friends.

Being able to use eligible crypto for everyday spending makes it feel much more practical than simply holding it inside an exchange.

And the convenience isn’t limited to one petrol station.

Eligible users can add the virtual Binance Card to Google Wallet for tap-to-pay where available, and the card can be used for eligible online and offline purchases at up to 90 million merchants worldwide, subject to availability and applicable terms.

There’s also the fact that eligible spending can earn up to 3% cashback for eligible users, subject to the relevant conditions.

That’s probably what I like most about the idea: it connects something I normally think of as “crypto” with something completely ordinary, like paying for fuel when you’ve forgotten your wallet.

Of course, eligibility, supported assets, availability, cashback and terms can vary by region and product, so always DYOR before using it.

And yes, I still had to tell my brother that I left his wallet at home. The card saved the payment. My reputation was not so lucky. 😂
