The core reason for this round of decline is, on the surface, that the rebound was weaker than expected of the US non-farm payroll data, which to a certain extent triggered market concerns about a US recession. In essence, with the release of Nvidias second-quarter financial report, the growth rate of performance slowed down. Nvidia, as the core driving force of this bull market, began to kill valuations. As a result, capital accelerated the pace of deleveraging in the technology sector to avoid risks.
The current situation does not look optimistic. The regulatory environment is quite chaotic. The SEC has been exerting pressure on the cryptocurrency field. The ISM index is declining, the demand for ETH ETF is weak, and the risk investors are cautious. These are not ideal market environments.
However, this is exactly how the market heals itself. In fact, when everyone is panicking, it often means that we may be closer to the bottom of the market than we think. Although there are a lot of bearish data, there are also many positive signals. L2 solutions are performing well (especially Base), social platforms such as Farcaster and OpenSocial are growing, and market leverage has been cleared.
Overall, although the market has cooled, it remains active in some key areas.
September was a bad month for all risk assets (hard to attribute); SEC enforcement season weighs on cryptocurrencies; reflexivity.
Exclusive interview with top KOL Ansem: Go all-in on SOL, Cardano may die in this cycle
Ansem believes that the current cycle is in the early stages of the second or third inning, and believes that cryptocurrency adoption will increase and unprecedented new things will break out.
If you want a blockchain that is more efficient than Ethereum L1, you should stop using EVM. People underestimate the trend of moving from CEX to DEX.

Entrepreneurship
The article introduces: an overview of the Korean ecosystem (including exchanges, media, research and consulting, investment, projects, and KOLs), three elements of planning marketing activities (clear KPIs, executable user actions, and a clear roadmap with pre- and post-TGE plans), and three types of Korean retail investors (money-grabbing parties, opportunistic traders, and technology-based infrastructure users).
Product-market fit (PMF) is the moment when a startup finally finds a broad customer base that resonates with its product. Should PMF be achieved before issuing tokens? It depends on how many tokens the product needs to find product-market fit.
Unless your product truly relies on a token, you shouldn’t rush to launch a token before achieving PMF. Without achieving PMF, your token may slow down growth rather than drive it.
The Icarus Myth of the Crypto World: The Self-Destructive Crisis Behind the High FDV Boom
Avoid issuing tokens at high FDV; raise funds only when necessary and consistent with growth strategy; do not issue tokens simply to achieve high FDV in the private market; for efficient price discovery, the circulating supply should be maximized when issuing tokens (the goal should be at least 20% to 50% of the total supply, not just 5%), however, the current regulatory environment may make this circulating supply target difficult to achieve; interact with liquidity managers.
As one of the earliest algorithmic innovations on the chain, Bonding Curve has had a profound impact on token economics and token engineering.
The role of Bonding Curve: natural sorting based on token game, natural early incentives, and healthy Value Flow.
Bonding Curve exists as part of the core algorithm in multiple protocols, such as Nexus Mutual in the field of on-chain insurance and Fei in the field of stablecoins. One of the major advantages of Bonding Curve is that it allows users to directly benefit from early growth, and when the curve is integrated with other protocol indicators, a gain of 1+1>2 can be obtained. In Nexus Mutual, as the value of the pledge increases, it can correspond to the super-linear growth of the token, while in FEI, it can achieve coordinated development with other DeFi protocols while stabilizing the inflow of protocols.
In addition, the pure on-chain governance introduced by Bonding Curve is itself a very sustainable thing, because the contract itself will not Rug itself. Other potential use cases include fairer (natural) governance, decentralized asset endorsement, and protocol growth.

-
Only 23% of the projects rose after the airdrop; (it is more cost-effective to sell them directly after receiving them)
-
Among the 47 airdropped tokens, only AI, Meme, and Modular airdrops had significant gains;
-
Looking at different networks, only Solana’s airdrop has seen a positive increase since TGE, while Ethereum-based airdrops performed the worst.
-
12.7% of airdrop projects outperformed the same ecosystem tokens this year; (If you want to buy, buy old coins for a higher chance of winning)
-
After the airdrop, all Layer 2 data declined, except for Starknet.
-
Linea is expected to airdrop $251 per address, which the author believes is underestimated; (After the Linea co-founder resigned yesterday, it is good to be able to issue coins)
-
The general airdrop value of Scroll is about $27, and the expected return of 16.9% of users is $1,350. The author believes that unless large funds participate in Scroll to cooperate with other projects to kill two birds with one stone, there is little value in participating;
-
Restaking performance is poor, and the author believes it is difficult to achieve excellent performance;
-
Berachain could try to collect a variety of (expensive) NFTs and participate in testnets regularly.

比特币生态系统
With the introduction of OP_CAT, STARK technology will be able to help Bitcoin realize the verification of zero-knowledge proofs, thereby introducing true universal computing power to Bitcoin. OP_CAT can introduce more logic to a single calculation by connecting stack elements, which gives Bitcoin scripts a certain degree of flexibility, but also faces the risk of DDOS. For security reasons, Satoshi Nakamoto deleted the OP_CAT opcode in 2010 to reduce the attack surface, which also caused Bitcoin to lose a certain degree of script flexibility, especially when data needs to be spliced.
STARK’s hashing operation can be more directly integrated with Bitcoin’s existing hashing logic. This adaptability means that STARK can implement zero-knowledge proofs more efficiently on the Bitcoin network without making major changes to Bitcoin’s existing computing mechanism.

Most L2s will always remain centralized because their incentives are broken. Current “solutions” to these problems are overly optimistic because L2s as for-profit companies will not give up their revenue. More power is given to companies that are forced to comply with government censorship. This goes against the tradition of privacy as a cypherpunk movement, and Ethereum is pushing most users towards L2s that can monitor, freeze, steal, and censor user funds.
The article explores Vitalik Buterin’s recent comments on waning interest in DeFi, ETH’s current underperformance against BTC and other competitors, and questions about whether ETH faces an identity crisis, such as whether it serves as an “ultrasonic currency” or is subject to cannibalization by some L2.
ETH is down 5% year-to-date, highlighting this problem. ETH supporters and others in the crypto space often disagree on semantics when discussing what counts as Ethereum. Whether or not L2 is considered part of Ethereum, L2 developments such as Arbitrum and Base have not provided significant benefits to ETH as an asset.
In the cryptocurrency space, people often validate narratives through price because it directly relates to their profitability.
Despite various optimizations at the industry level and individual chain level, a total of $10,500 to $16,500 in monthly fees is still required for ZK Rollup and $4,000 to $6,500 for Op Rollup, in addition to sharing up to 20% of the sorter profits once the chain becomes profitable.
Multi-ecology and cross-chain
Currently, the inflation rate of the Solana network is about 5.07%, and the network staking rate is as high as 65%. In the inflation model, users get rewards by validating nodes, and the circulation of tokens gradually decreases over time. Although Solanas staking return rate is attractive, there is still uncertainty about the long-term impact of its inflation on token prices. Future adjustments to the inflation plan may further affect the sustainability and economic model of the network by reducing issuance or changing the inflation mechanism.

Going mainstream is the purpose of Soneium Chain. Astar Network is reshaping its Astar zkEVM into Soneium L2. $ASTR will provide support for the Soneium ecosystem, but the Gas token is still $ETH. Soneium has no plans to launch a native token in the near future.
The Soneium Minato testnet was launched on August 28. In just half a month, more than 60 projects have announced development or integration with Soneium.

friend.tech has given up, Farcaster’s growth has stagnated… Why is social networking so difficult?
Creating a universal social product is a very difficult challenge. Acquiring customers, retaining them, and allowing users to establish new relationships in new products are all extremely complicated matters.
The current decentralized social products generally lack some irreplaceable advantages, and it is difficult for users to form a rigid demand. The current decentralized social products have obvious disadvantages in terms of network effects. The current decentralized social products have generally declined in terms of wealth effects.
