See y’all there. 🫡
In 2025, the payment sector became one of the key narratives of the crypto industry.
There has been rapid development in the payment ecosystem: the launch of stablecoin cards, the scaling of B2B and P2P payments, and the emergence of entirely new L1 chains specifically focused on payment solutions.
I analyzed more than 35+ chains and systematized them into a tier list according to the level of development and maturity of the payment infrastructure.
S-tier payments chains:
@0xPolygon - rapid development of the payment ecosystem, development of micropayments and regional stablecoins.
Payment projects using the chain: Stripe, Revolut, Monerium, Rain Card, MasterCard, and others.
@solana - serious partnerships with major fintech giants, development of payment initiatives.
Payment projects using the chain: Revolut, Moonpay, Visa, PayPal, Cash App, and others.
@base - with the support of Coinbase, it has managed to gather many excellent and advanced payment companies around itself.
Payment projects using the chain: Coinbase, Stripe, Rain Card, Shopify, Wirex and others.
@tempo, @Plasma, @arc, @stable - all these projects are part of a new wave of stablechain infrastructures that emerged in 2025 and share a common goal: to optimize global payments and settlements using stablecoins.
@ethereum - plays an important role in the payments market, as billions of dollars pass through it every month from payment projects.
Payment projects using the chain: Stripe, Rain Card, Visa, MasterCard, PayPal and others.
A-tier payments chains:
@trondao and @Ripple are fundamentally important chains for the development of payment projects on the market. Tron provides more than half of all payments made with USDT, and Ripple is developing its own stablecoin, RLUSD.
Payment projects using the chain: RedotPay, Revolut, Moonpay, Oobit, Plisio and others.
@avax, @arbitrum, @BNBCHAIN, and @StellarOrg are chains that many new payment projects are choosing, and they significantly expanded their ecosystems in 2025.
Payment projects using the chain: Rain Card, RedotPay, Blackbird, Eldorado, Rise, Bleap and others.
@Celo - has made a significant contribution to the development of stablecoin payments in Africa and Asia through projects such as MiniPay and Noah.
Payment projects using the chain: MiniPay, Noah, DaimoPay, Valora and others.
@Dashpay - keeps the focus on real daily payments: instant transactions, low fees, stable operation in regions with high demand for P2P payments, and integration with merchant platforms.
Payment projects using the chain: Zebec Card, Edge, Now Wallet and other.
B-tier payments chains:
@SeiNetwork, @SuiNetwork, @Optimism, @Scroll_ZKP, @LineaBuild, @Aptos, @Cardano, and @THORChain—these chains contributed to the development of payment infrastructure in 2025.
@Optimism has become a popular chain for Rain Card customer deposits, @Scroll_ZKP runs one of the most popular crypto cards, Etherfi Cash Card, and @LineaBuild uses Metamask Card.
At the same time, @Cardano and @THORChain have their own crypto cards and are actively developing them.
Payment projects using the chain: Etherfi Cash, Metamask, Rain Card, Kolo Card and others.
C-tier and D payments chains:
C-tier and D-tier are actively evolving: they focus on fast and cheap payments, experiment with new models, and gradually increase adoption. @Algorand, @Sophon, @SonicLabs and others, are showing stable development and finding their niches.
My blunt take on @solsticefi ICO
The final details we have been waiting for, on $SLX ICO have been released
- Sale supply: 5% (50M tokens)
- Sale price: $0.13
- Target raise: $6.5M
- Max allocation: $1000 = 7,692 $SLX
It would take 6,500 investors putting in $1,000 each to fill the sale.
1. Is Raise vs FDV reasonable?
- Private rounds are often 3–10%
- Public / community sales usually raise 2–8% of FDV
$6.5M is 5% of $130M
This sits right in the “acceptable” range
2. Upside Math (Reality Check)
To get to a 2×, the FDV needs to go from $130M → $260M at launch
That’s not easy unless there is:
- Strong narrative: Stablecoin
- Real users/revenue: 26.8k $USX holders
- Big exchange listings: Solana Foundation can influence listing
Overall it’s a mid-cap bet, not a low-cap moonshot.
3. Final Verdict
Good raise structure though not a steal valuation
At launch, only 2.5% is unlocked, while the other 2.5% unlocks linearly daily for 3 months
Low initial supply means it would be easy to pump price early
Note: This is my opinion and not financial advice and I could be wrong.

--------------
3️⃣ Pros:
- True “Onchain Robinhood”: One stop mobile app for all crypto financial services
- Real Revenue Model:
⤷ Users trade (swaps, perps, prediction markets - soon)
⤷ Rainbow uses part of revenue to buy back $RNBW
⤷ These tokens go back to users as rewards (more revenue -> more buy backs)
→ Not emissions - rewards backed by real activity
→Strong Token Alignment:
- Rainbow Foundation now holds 20% equity on behalf of token holders
Prevents future misalignment between equity holders vs token holders
- Incredible UI/UX: One of the best-designed wallets in Web3
- Team & Investor Unlocks: 0 tokens at TGE
- Supports many chains from day one (ETH, Base, Arbitrum, BSC, Monad, etc)
- Backed by top VCs
- Capital Efficient Team: Only ~$20M raised to date
--------------
4️⃣ Cons:
- If product revenue does not grow fast enough, buybacks will be slow then token price will dump
• 15% airdrop supply at TGE is huge - this will create heavy selling pressure.
• If Rainbow launches this month, there’s a low chance of strong volume due to negative market sentiment.
🚨 Very Important Update:
I’ll share my final view on Tuesday on my Telegram channel ( https://t.co/iFv4BY3u8b ) whether to invest in this sale or not.
Why Tuesday? , Because @mikedemarais will announce the TGE date on Tuesday, and that’s why I’m waiting for that.
--------------
⚠️ NOTE: If you don’t want to take much risk, just put $100 - $200 for exposure. If funds are tight, just follow for knowledge.
--------------
⚠️ DYOR is must. I’m only sharing research, not financial advice.
Manage risk, because funds are always yours.
🚨 Alert Regarding ICO : Presale
Don’t ape into any presale that unlocks 20–45% at TGE.
Either avoid it or wait for my update.
85% of the projects coming with token sales are just here for cashgrab - they have no potential, no future, no real value, and no vision.
the best buybacks projects from p/e (FDV) rn :
$MET : x6,8 (discretionary buybacks, so might be wrong)
$PUMP : x9,7 (100% of revenue)
$JUP : x16,6 (50%)
$FLUID : x22 (100% from ETH mainnet)
$ETHFI : x22,2 (100% from eETH withdrawal fees)
$HYPE : x29 (100%)
$AAVE : x63,8 (50M annually)
$SYRUP : x108 (25%)
i didn’t include ve(3,3) tokens like $AERO or $PENDLE, not the same category to me
and yeah, this is just informational, doesn’t factor in liquidity, volume, or token unlocks
airdrops tier list
s tier: uniswap, hyperliquid, arbitrum
a tier: aptos, dymension, jupiter, celestia

Do you want the REAL reason behind @humidifi ICO?
Simple - they are unprofitable. That’s why they are offering a fee rebate token.
You might be surprised because they basically have 50% of Solana DEX volume, how that can be?
But as a liquidity provider and someone who is well versed in all things liquidity, I can tell you that AMMs on Solana have a very good playbook on how to actually do this.
The most likely explanation is that HumidiFi is quoting using a VERY low fee like 0.001% or something even lower. I can’t guarantee that, and I have no evidence, but we saw this, for example, with Stabble (if you remember this).
Low fees and propAMM tight quotes lead to them capturing almost all volume. But as someone who provides liquidity, I can assure you it is difficult to stay profitable with 0.04% fees, which HumidiFi definitely doesn’t charge.
IL (Impermanent loss) eats basically all profits in today’s market even with 0.02% or something like this, and I can’t imagine how propAMMs solve this. Tighter quotes - more fees, but more IL.
So no, they didn’t make 3m$.

The end of InfoFi era? or just $COOKIE?
After Ten Protocol & Antix spectacularly imploded, creators who farmed for months got NOTHING while insiders dumped at launch. $TEN crashed from $0.08 to $0.01 & $ANTIX $0.14 to $0.045 in hours while claim were "delayed"
WTF is going on?
Lemme break down this,
✦ $TEN
• Presale bro bought at $0.08
• Closed at $0.02 without no one is holding lmaooo
• Top snappers got dust after months of grinding
• Now at $0.009
• "Technical issues" = soft rug?
✦ $ANTIX
• TGE on Nov 28, claim delayed almost 3 DAYS
• Funny part? claim & cex deposit on differ chain
• Token tanked while NO ONE could access allocations
• Now sitting at $0.02 😱
• Team 100% dumped on us?
Both hosted on @cookiedotfun. Pattern or coincidence?
Is InfoFi core promise is still powerful? So far we're always know your post, insight, attention = liquid asset earning real yield
But we need platform that don't treat us like exit liquidity. Some project like @superformxyz or @useTria actually doing it right with transparent system. Cookie gotta step up or step aside, we ain't playing anymore. The model work when platforms give af about creators not just fee
Now all eye are on @almanak, TGE dropping early December
After getting rekt twice, here's what we need to see:
• Everything is transparent
• No "delayed claim" during dump
• Equal access for all participants
• Team better show face when shit hit
The community is watching. We've been cooked twice, don't be the third
Will this restore faith in InfoFi? Or just another crumble?
Time will tell
Rating ICO Platforms (Out of 10)
> Retail Focused.
> Evaluated using 3 core factors ; distribution, performance & vesting.
> This rating system helps analyze how retail friendly a platform truly based on above factor.
PS : These tiers are based on all factors, not only performance. If a low performing platform brings strong opportunities, other factors also start making sense. EX : Legion and Coinlist fall in the same tier for as legion lacks fair distribution & Coinlist lacks performance.
1. Coinbase ~ 9.3/10 ⭐
I. Distribution Rating: 10/10
Verdict: Coinbase uses a bottom up model where smaller requests get filled first [highly retail friendly]
II. Performance Rating: 8/10
They’re still new in ICO's, so let's see but MON performed better pre TGE & the day after post TGE.
III. Vesting Rating: 10/10
Verdict : 100% unlock so far
2. Buidlpad ~ 8.6/10 ⭐
I. Distribution Rating: 6/10
Verdict: They use a lottery system with priority guaranteed allo. Fair for winners, but non winners get nothing, making access luck based & inconsistent.
II. Performance Rating: 10/10
Verdict: Performance wise, BuidlPad has been strong bringing T1 opportunities like FF, LAYER and BARD. Even when MMT went wrong they managed a recovery showing they focus on quality > quantity.
III. Vesting Rating: 10/10
Verdict: Every sale has 100% unlock which keeps things retail friendly.
3. Metadao ~ 7.5/10 ⭐
I. Distribution Rating: 7.5/10
Verdict: They use a pro rata model so everyone gets allocation but uncapped contributions make it less retail friendly & favor whales.
II. Performance Rating: 5/10
Verdict: Out of 8 ICOs, only Umbra, Avici, OMFG and Solo performed well. Avici still ~20× but overall results remain inconsistent due to weaker projects.
III. Vesting Rating: 10/10
Verdict: Every sale offers 100% unlock which is good but the distribution favors whales.
4. Echo ~ 6.3/10 ⭐
I. Distribution Rating: 8/10
Verdict: They use a Time Weighted Vault means a small deposit held longer can outperform a large short term deposit making it fair for retail.
II. Performance Rating: 7/10
Verdict: Echo focuses on quality > quantity. They don’t launch projects frequently but when they do, they're solid for EX ~ Plasma recently delivered 34× ROI
III. Vesting Rating: 4/10
Verdict: Echo rarely offers 100% unlocks. Most sales have cliffs & vesting, making it less retail friendly short term but better in long term.
5. Kaito ~ 6.3/10 ⭐
I. Distribution Rating: 8/10
Verdict: Reputation based access with a mix of pro rata allo & a fixed cap system ensures fair participation + prevents whales as everyone gets a slice of the pie
II. Performance Rating: 4/10
Verdict: Out of their 7 ICOs, only ZKC and LMT performed well. HANA worked only if hedged pre market. Overall post launch performance hasn’t been strong.
III. Vesting Rating: 7/10
Verdict: Some sales offer 100% unlock, but many use 50% TGE with 3-6 month vesting so it’s decent but not fully retail friendly.
6. Legion ~ 4.3/10 ⭐
I. Distribution Rating: 3/10
Verdict: The distribution is weak, as most users get marked "not eligible" due to priority for high merit wallets limiting retail access.
II. Performance Rating: 5/10
Verdict: Performance is mixed - some like Fuel, YB, Giza and Trust did well, but many others underperformed making results roughly 50 :50.
III. Vesting Rating: 5/10
Verdict: Vesting varies a lot (100%, 50%, 25% TGE with cliffs & unlocks) making performance hard to predict and adding uncertainty.
7. Coinlist ~ 4.3/10 ⭐
I. Distribution Rating: 7/10
Verdict: Distribution varies by project (pro rata, FCFS, bottom up, lottery) but complex KYC and regional limits make access difficult for many users.
II. Performance Rating: 1/10
Verdict: One of the weakest in post TGE performance, most sales dumped with only small exceptions like WCT and Trust.
III. Vesting Rating: 5/10
Verdict: Vesting is inconsistent (33%, 50%, 100%) - similar to Legion but with weaker performance.
