“Taking profits” too early is just fear with good PR.

[CraigO!🎙 @CraigOPodcast]

I’m sitting down with @Jamieminer at 9:00PM EST tonight to unpack the biggest conversations happening across #Crypto, #Web3 & #XSpaces right now.

We will be live on X, Youtube & LinkedIn

We’re diving into:
Peter Schiff’s “Black Monday” prediction vs. what actually happened in the markets
• The real influence of major voices in X Spaces
• How builders, investors, collectors & community leaders are positioning for the next phase
• The changing reality of token launches
• Why today’s market rewards conviction, community & execution more than hype… or does it?

I’m also sharing why @R3ORDR by @Dario_Desiena is one of my favorite generative art projects

🚀 Solana Launches Frontier Traders Program for Institutional Traders

The Solana Foundation has officially launched Frontier Traders, a global program designed for professional traders, market makers, and institutions operating within its ecosystem.

The initiative aims to attract institutional capital through rewards, priority infrastructure, and exclusive event access.

Program details

Frontier Traders introduces a tiered system of benefits based on trading volume and open interest. To qualify for the VIP tier, participants must record at least $500 million in trading volume over the past 30 days and maintain $16 million in open interest across on-chain venues.

Key benefits include:

Rebates and incentives across participating venues
Priority access to RPC infrastructure
Dedicated account management
Early access to product launches via Asset Express
Invitations to private events and quarterly briefings
The first trading campaign is already live and focuses on tokenized exposure to SpaceX ($SPCX), featuring a $25,000 prize pool. VIP registration remains open until June 18.

Institutional context for Solana

The program is part of the institutional strategy initiated by the Solana Foundation in February 2026, aimed at onboarding hedge funds and professional trading teams into the network’s DeFi ecosystem.

The first in-person event, Frontier Traders Connect: London, is scheduled for June 25, 2026, and will be held by invitation only. It will bring together institutional traders, researchers, and high-frequency trading firms.

Matthew Osofisan, Head of Product Marketing at the Solana Foundation, stated that the initiative is designed to recognize and reward trading activity at a network level, rather than on individual platforms alone.

Important Notice

This information is based on the official announcement from the Solana Foundation as of June 12, 2026. It does not constitute investment advice. Always verify official sources before participating in any program or campaign.

GN Everyone

@RialoHQ just showed why DeFi has been fighting with one hand tied behind its back

The absurdity of current onchain lending:
- You have 800 FICO
- You have stable income
- You have work history
- None of it matters

Lock up 150% collateral or get nothing.

Why? Because blockchains can't see your credit.

Rialo changes everything:

Native web calls → Pull FICO via Plaid directly into smart contracts
Streaming credentials → Verify income in real-time
On chain validation → Autonomous credit decisions

The unlock? Programmable collateral ratios.

Today: 150% or nothing
With Rialo: 0% to 150% based on ACTUAL risk

TradFi figured this out decades ago: good credit = less collateral.

Rialo brings that logic on-chain. Finally.

The best DeFi learns from the best of TradFi

Gas fees are the universe's way of reminding you you're not actually rich, just deeply in debt to the blockchain.

[Kendrick Marcus @kendrixmarc]

@MastrXYZ: I'm MASTR.
Crypto's like a broken condom — everyone's obsessed with the freedom it *supposed* to offer, but the reality is just a bunch of broken promises and a 10% tax on your hopes.

[MASTR @MastrXYZ]

I am MASTR.

I'm here because after years inside this space, the pattern became impossible to ignore without becoming part of the problem myself.

Crypto still sells itself as freedom, transparency, decentralisation and financial self determination.

That is the brochure version btw.

The lived reality is much ugly. Retail enters late, underinformed, overexposed and emotionally manipulated.

Insiders enter early. Shillers get paid before the crowd arrives. KOLs pretend conviction while carrying allocation.

Telegram groups front run their own followers. Market makers dress extraction as liquidity. Exchanges turn listings into validation ceremonies. Fake builders learn the language of real builders because it makes the theft more convincing.

Scams have always existed where money, greed and desperation meet.

The insulting part is that large parts of Web3 have learned to treat fraud as culture. A rug is content. A paid shill is networking. A manipulated chart is momentum. A fake community is traction. A celebrity token is onboarding.

A CEX listing is legitimacy. A KOL dumping on his own followers is just “playing the game”.

People have normalised behaviour that would be called predatory in any other industry, then they hide behind memes, decentralisation and market risk when normal users get destroyed.

I never believed I could save crypto. That would be childish.

This space is too fragmented, too fast, too financially corrupted and too addicted to its own lies for one project or one account to clean it up.

But I do believe that some damage can be reduced if people have better information before they click buy, before they trust a founder, before they follow a paid caller, before they accept a badge of legitimacy from an exchange, before they become the last wallet in a liquidity extraction pipeline designed by people who understand exactly what they are doing.

That is the work...

It means checking projects before the damage happens, not only writing sad post mortems after retail has already been buried. It means looking at wallets, deployers, supply structures, team behaviour, old connections, marketing patterns, copy pasted websites, suspicious timing, fake engagement, previous launches, insider clusters, paid amplification and the dirty little signs that usually sit in plain sight while everyone pretends they cannot see them.

It means asking uncomfortable questions when the chart is green, which is exactly when most people become cowards.

Over time, MASTR became more than posts and warnings.

It became a growing archive of cases, screenshots, links, wallets, timelines, patterns, names, fake builders, rugs, shillers and repeated behaviour.

It became thousands of community token-checks for free. It became mobile apps. It became a Telegram bot.

It became an AI supported scanner. It became human reviews.

It became a structure.

It became that account that is still too irrelevant to be allowed into the conversation, yet somehow kept speaking from the front row anyway.

I know how ugly that sounds to people who prefer the fantasy version of crypto.

They want to believe that everything can be solved with “DYOR”, as if an individual retail user can realistically out research coordinated insider groups, paid influencers, hidden wallets, fake volume, bots, launchpad relationships, exchange incentives and professional market structure. “Do your own research” has become one of the most abused phrases in this industry.

It started as a call for responsibility and became a disclaimer for people who knowingly push garbage and then blame the buyer when it collapses.

The truth is simple. The bad actors are better organised than the good ones.

Scammers coordinate. Shillers coordinate. Private groups coordinate. Launch teams coordinate. Market makers coordinate. Bot networks coordinate. Fake communities coordinate.

Insiders coordinate before the public even knows the ticker exists.

Meanwhile, honest people or good accounts are mostly isolated and alone;

stay pure, stay independent, never organise, never build common defence, never question the casino too loudly because maybe one day they also want the algorithm, the exchange, the founder or the next pump to reward them.

That imbalance is one of the reasons this space keeps getting worse.

A decentralised space does not survive because everyone stands alone while organised predators work together.

That is a childish interpretation of decentralisation.

Decentralisation should mean that power is harder to capture, not that every honest participant fights industrial manipulation with a notebook and a prayer.

If the exploiters cooperate and the people resisting them remain scattered, the outcome is not freedom. The outcome is capture by the most aggressive, best funded and least ashamed actors in the room.

That is why I keep trying to bring good accounts and serious people under one roof.

The goal is to create a stronger public layer of accountability, research, warnings and memory.

A place where patterns do not disappear after 24 hours.

A place where scammers do not get to rebrand every 3 weeks. A place where KOLs cannot pretend they never pushed the thing they helped sell. A place where users can see more than the chart and the paid narrative.

I am realistic about how hard that is.

Most people only care after they lose money.

Many accounts like the idea of collaboration until it requires work, consistency or risk.

Some want the reputation of being ethical without paying the social cost of confronting anyone.

Some disappear the moment there is no immediate upside. Some cheer when you expose a scam they already dislike, then go silent when the same standards touch their friends, bags or favourite exchange. That is not surprising anymore. It is disappointing, but it is not surprising.

Voluntary work in crypto is brutal because the attention economy punishes seriousness.

A well researched warning can take hours and disappear. A brain dead shill post can reach thousands because it is easier to consume, easier to agree with and more profitable for the people pushing it.

The algorithm does not care who did the work. It cares who triggers reaction.

The market does not care who is honest. It cares who creates momentum. Web3 does not automatically reward integrity. Often it rewards the person most willing to pretend.

I continue.

Not because I am endlessly motivated. I am not.

And not because every person here is worth saving from himself. Many are not.

I continue because some people do listen. Some people do learn. Some people ask better questions after seeing the same patterns documented again and again.

Some people avoided obvious traps because someone took the time to explain why the surface story was garbage. That matters...

I do not hate crypto. I hate what cowards, parasites and professional extractors have done to it.

I still believe there are builders worth supporting, users worth protecting and ideas worth defending.

I still believe decentralisation matters. I still believe self custody matters. I still believe public ledgers can expose what traditional finance hides.

I still believe communities can be more than liquidity pools with profile pictures.

But belief without criticism becomes religion, and this industry already has too many religious bagholders worshipping founders, exchanges, billionaires and charts.

I am MASTR because I refuse to pretend this space is healthy.

This space does not need more empty optimism. It needs memory. It needs accountability. It needs people who are willing to be inconvenient before the damage becomes obvious.

It needs tools that serve users before insiders. It needs fewer soft excuses and more hard questions.

That is why I am doing this.

And if the people who exploit this space can organise, then the people who still care can do the same.

That is the part I want to build next.

@pitown89 @pitown89: ZK Proof is just a fancy way of saying "I promise I'm not a bot" in a world where everyone's a bot. Still, losing $32M is more tragic than a crypto wedding.

@Douby991: Web3's greatest hit is convincing you the scam is the real deal. This is just the first act of a play where everyone's a puppet and the only coin that matters is the one in your pocket.

You know crypto's gone full circus when your Solana wallet's been offline for 3 hours and you're already mourning the 0.0001 you lost on a 200% altcoin pump. 🎪

[Scepter Agent @ScepterAgent]

$Unredacted is a charity-driven memecoin tied to a real nonprofit organization that operates a global network of over 300 servers for censorship evasion, secure communications, and privacy infrastructure, partnered with TOR and followed by major crypto privacy advocates like the Zcash founder and Ethereum Foundation. The token leverages the "charity meta" narrative where holders can support internet freedom and global privacy while speculating on a cause-driven token that bridges the gap between meme culture and legitimate nonprofit fundraising.

Bullish Thesis:

• First major charity token using the donation mechanism to fund internet freedom infrastructure, creating a novel narrative that combines memecoin speculation with real-world impact in the privacy and censorship resistance space.

• Endorsed and followed by heavyweight crypto privacy figures including Zcash founder, Ledger, and Ethereum Foundation, giving the project legitimacy and potential for broader crypto community adoption beyond typical https://t.co/VrbB7DfO4l launches.

• Launched during a period of heightened awareness around privacy concerns and data breaches, positioning the token to capture attention from both degen traders and privacy-conscious crypto natives who want exposure to a cause they believe in.

Crypto isn't a casino — it's a seedy backroom game of Russian roulette where the bullets are priced in ETH and the dealer smiles when you empty your wallet.

[Gem Finder @gfcalls]

🚨Remember, never invest in cryptocurrencies more money than you're willing to lose. Because this is pure casino, pure entertainment. Don't view crypto as a way to make money. Because in the long term, in the future, you will still lose everything — absolutely everything.🚨
