why FOMO over a CEX:
you can buy any token day one, not 6 months later when it finally gets listed
self custody, your funds sit with you and not the exchange
no gas, no bridging, every chain in one app
you see what your friends are buying in real time

how I got drained on @fomo without connecting a wallet or entering a seed phrase
important: I am not claiming that FOMO itself was hacked
this was a malicious tracker that I ran inside an already logged in FOMO session
three weeks ago, a guy who followed my Telegram channel messaged me asking for my FOMO referral link
it felt like a completely normal DM
after a few messages, he offered to show me a tracker he had built for FOMO
I opened the site and thought I was being careful
I had no intention of connecting a wallet or entering my seed phrase
I thought that was enough to stay safe
the tracker looked legitimate
it asked me to drag a button into my bookmarks bar, then open FOMO and click it
so I did
the problem was that it was not a normal link
the bookmark contained code starting with `javascript:`
in other words, it was a bookmarklet
when clicked, the browser executes that code directly inside the page where you are currently logged in
you do not need to enter a seed phrase
you do not need to connect another wallet
you do not need to download a file
by running unknown JavaScript inside a crypto terminal, you give it access to whatever your active page session can access
around a week later, I opened my FOMO profile and my funds were gone
after the drain, the scammer messaged me and claimed that he got my seed phrase the moment I added the bookmarklet
I cannot independently verify the exact technical path he used, so I am not presenting that as a confirmed conclusion
but the result is obvious:
I ran unknown code on a page where my money was stored.
remember:
a normal bookmark points to `https://...`
a bookmark that starts with `javascript:` executes code in your browser.
do not run unknown bookmarklets on FOMO, Photon, GMGN, BullX, or any other crypto terminal.
if you have already run something similar:
- delete the bookmarklet
- terminate all active sessions
- revoke approvals and session permissions
- move remaining funds from a clean device to a fresh wallet
- send the link and code to the platform’s security team
Xstocks(https://t.co/NUi340QNPR), another one of the best options where you should direct your liquidity, since insane backers, mass approvals from exchanges, and a full hit into the meta of tokenizing all stocks and access to gambling on them on the markets, m.
Let's start with the basics, who's behind the project, to understand why we should direct our attention there. Backed(https://t.co/1QboEJYyyh) are the devs of Xstocks, the main shop into which Kraken poured tbd unknown how much cash, but they're the lead there.
Now catch the connection, into Kraken(https://t.co/S3Z48eYiyw) Citadel recently poured 200m$, and that's at their valuation of 20B, before that Kraken pours cash into Backed, who in turn birth Xstocks for us, basically I think you're feeling it.
In an era where there are no normal exchanges without funny business, Kraken is quietly capturing markets, to catch a second BNB runner would be a cool move, fumbling which = being a chump, especially in a market without any little competitors.
Where Mantle is useless shit, Okex token is useless shit, Bitget, Binance, well you get it, they just exist, no utility, with high caps, and here Kraken with stocks hits the meta and the market is benevolent, no competitors, gaz.
How am I gonna farm, I go to xstocks(https://t.co/NUi340QNPR), activate the acc, then on Raydium(https://t.co/FgCRFhE0Jr) I buy spx500, that's it, points are already dripping for us, if that's not enough we put the stocks into Jup(https://t.co/WergFhiMdD), take a loan in $ against it, buy new stocks with it, loop it.
This way we farm even more points than just from holding spx, and our stocks also go up, making us $. Go to the site, take a look, they're already on all exchanges, even Pavel integrated them, am.
Here's the actual post(https://t.co/aoKTYmrrp2) from X where Kraken straight up says yeah we own xstocks, fuck I'm sure that farming xstocks you can also catch the ink drop. I'm charged up as fuck because of the moves you can make.
What can you do with a regular stock? Basically fucking nothing, it sits and grows, but the crypto wrapper you can throw in as collateral for a loan, throw into a pool, understand the potential of the next meta, rwa revolution soon.
@digitdustin@mustafap0ly@Polymarket What kind of idiots does Polymarket consider its users to be? They only recently added commissions. Remember @LayerZero_Core , a project that spent 4 years milking its users for commissions?
Arkham started off really well but turned into some kind of dumpster. If before there was a clear idea of the project, on-chain data, which was actually done super cool, then after that some bullshit started, like now we're a crypto exchange with zero volumes, now we're a prediction market, what, tomorrow you'll switch shoes into an NFT marketplace? hahah
