Actionable insights on Airdrops & DeFi.

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

Believe it or not, I'm still staking my $TIA - there's a small chance it could qualify for Initia lol

I got my entire initial out through the $DYM airdrop, but didn't expect that no sizeable airdrop would follow

Apart from that, I'll receive a custom-made NFT from @TeamTuzi, which is Initia-based

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

I tapped until 50K but found it too boring, so resorted to passively farming it through deposits on Orca, Save, Astrol, and Invariant

Only a small amount of funds albeit I believe it's one of the better liquidity/effort (through tapping and multipliers) farms out there

If I wasn't so complacent I would probably withdraw a lot of my EVM farms (e.g. still have funds on Scroll, Linea + Solv) and deposit them there

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

Just going by the flow of money Dolomite + Infrared is what the whales seem to prefer right now

Haven't really branched out on Berachain, but believe everything else is quite deeper down the risk curve

So that's what I went with as well

Also got some farms on Beradrome, but they're quite niche and not a sizeable position for me

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

@VictorTopDefiG @Rencrypta @paradex The comments are usually where the true alpha lies

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

@Rencrypta @paradex Paradex is my sleeper farm - I got $13k in their Vault and passively accumulating XP

Would deposit more, but it's capped at $13M and hard to get in

It's great to farm it delta neutral with Hyperliquid if you have no trading edge

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

@FabianoSolana Great 'farm'

I outsourced it to a friend that has a slight edge in prediction markets

I believe he's up 214% since late last year, but we only used $7K

Not really sybiling it, but if they ever launch a token, it will be sizeable

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

@Nilavoc7 @jhamzyboss @AnonVee_ Still here

But I somewhat lost my drive considering how the last 2 years played out exactly how I wanted them to

Now on the lookout for other 'ventures'

I staked my remaining 108K HYPE bag btw

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

Lmao, love it

My $100 per $KAITO was mainly for fun as there's no guarantee they'll also allocate 30% of the entire supply to Airdrop #1, but I'm overall very bullish on Kaito because of PMF and the scarcity of Yaps

Kaito isn't your 10th iteration of a Rollup or EVM chain, and high-profile customers regularly pay an arm and a leg for their tools

They're doing a lot of things right + AI angle in an increasingly AI-dominated world is the cherry on top

Always Be Yappin' (ABY)

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

@2shabby @_kaitoai

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

So 1 Hyperliquid Point = $148.7 right now

What if 1 @_kaitoai Yap is also going to be worth $100+?

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

Certainly

80% is through my own posts, 20% via refs

I'd absolutely shill your ref if I were you

It's literally free, and people need a code to sign up

People essentially get to support you with no cost for the countless airdrop guides + indirect $ you provided

Win/Win in my book

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

@kotegnfts @_kaitoai I'm certainly farming Yaps, but mostly not forcing it

What matters the most is signing up (so they count) and provide good insights and get genuine engagement by 'smart money' accs

I slept through the NFT Mint btw, worth $11,300

At least some of my followers got in

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

@Q_amirat So Kaito actually considers me smart money and my responses contribute to Yaps of others - good to know

Congrats 🫡

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

@PatrykosWeb3 Good theory

I'll never say no to free Meme Token Airdrops, e.g. $WEN for Jupiter, and #M3M3 for Meteora

On Eclipse

I have done some more things:

1) Bought a Domain Name: https://t.co/8ojVEhRgRe
Requires X Signup = some Sybil resistance, which I like

2) Minted one of the three currently available NFTs: https://t.co/C3iDtlZ8Jy
Unlike ASC and Validators, these will likely be worthless, but they deepen my footprint for $3-$4

3) Spent the last few hours manually clicking 21,809 times: https://t.co/TFYhqKM0Iz

Eclipse OG @SondreayW was generous enough to provide me with a code. If you don't have a code, Eclipse will probably gradually roll more out. Everyone only gets 3 codes = good anti-dilution

The strategy on Tap
- Click all manual; Eclipse might filter auto-clickers
- Use a dual-monitor setup: watch a movie/vid on the second monitor while clicking on the other
- I bought 100,000 Clicks for 0.005 ETH. The way it works is that Eclipse frontloads your wallet with 100k usable clicks before you have to purchase again

My personal goal is to reach 1M clicks and burn through $170. If I do 50K clicks per day, I'll get there in 20 Days. Don't think there's a reason to be this 'hardcore' —— and a lot less than that will likely suffice

The goal of the Tap Game is to stress-test the chain while keeping it somewhat entertaining through gamification

Makes you think: Maybe TX Count plays a role if Eclipse were to launch a token?
----------------------

On a side note:
Eclipse recorded its highest TPS today at 628, which is the highest under a 'non-controlled' environment across all L2s

Context: The 'record' was set by Starknet (5B FDV) under a controlled stress-test: 857 TPS.

TPS today: 1.33

Base, the hottest L2, hit 106.26 TPS in Nov '24

Done diluting Eclipse for now, or it'll become overcrowded 🫡

.@EclipseFND is probably the next decent project to keep an eye on

Fuel paid off well from an effort & risk perspective, and Eclipse might be similar given the barrier to entry → you need 2 separate wallets

(I might even farm Fuel S2)

There will likely be a points program for Eclipse considering their ToS' mentions a 'Turbo Tap' program & 'Grass' rewards w/ no monetary value. That being said, competent teams usually reward early adopters generously retroactively

So far I've been:
▫️Bridging in through Hyperlane: https://t.co/HLIMbHBqt8
▫️ LPing ETH/tETH on Orca (can also do SOL/ETH, etc.)

Personally need to expand more and try out different dApps over there

@vladyoo Beautifully said

Eclipse afaik has around 205k Wallets right now and has high friction by not being a 'true' EVM chain, so the bookmarking scenario might play out

[Tensor Foundation @TensorFdn]

Season 4 has ended & the rewards claim checker is now live.

Here are the details 👇

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

@flb_xyz Will prob get a Validator NFT or ASC

Waiting a bit for the hype to settle before buying

Me highlighting Eclipse certainly doesn't help with that

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

@Q_amirat @EclipseFND @phantom Good guide - captures a bunch of interop plays too

⚡️ Eclipse: How to Become a Top 1% User

Follow a few simple steps and analyze stats to become a top @EclipseFND user to get a potential Airdrop

What to do 👇🏻

[CC2 @CC2Ventures]

High odds that NFTs will get an airdrop for Eclipse too IMO

Albeit barrier to entry is quite high, e.g. 1 ASIC NFT costs 0.61 ETH right now, Validators 0.244 ETH, etc.

From what I've seen though is that Eclipse community is quite insane; never received that many comments in such a short time period, and they're all bullposting Eclipse lol
