Robinhood built a chain for tokenized stocks, and the trenches turned it into crypto’s hottest launchpad battleground. Launchpads on the network have minted tens of thousands of tokens per day since the July 1 mainnet. They flipped Pump.fun in fees along the way. Some produced the wildest tickers of 2026. We covered the network itself in our What is Robinhood Chain guide. Today we rank the platforms fighting over its volume, with a market cap for every name that actually has a token. Half the fun is seeing how the market prices these fee machines.Pons: The Fee Machine That Out-Earned…
The wait ends this Wednesday. Arc, the stablecoin Layer-1 built by Circle, goes live on September 16. We’ve been counting down since our what is Arc chain breakdown back in July, and now the real thing finally arrives.A fresh chain means fresh liquidity, fresh launchpads, and a fresh wave of degens hunting the next casino. Here’s what you need to know before Wednesday, plus a few warnings that could save your stack.Arc goes live on September 16Circle flips the switch on public mainnet this Wednesday, roughly eleven months after the first announcement. The pitch hasn’t changed: USDC as gas, sub-second…
We are reviewing DAI at a strange moment: the month it officially stops being the main character. The multi-year migration from MakerDAO to Sky wrapped up in August 2026. DAI liquidity is rolling 1:1 into the new USDS token, and exchanges are quietly retiring DAI support chain by chain. So consider this DAI review part obituary, part handover, and part honest look at whether the “decentralized stablecoin” ideal survived its own success.What Is DAI?DAI is crypto’s original decentralized stablecoin, launched in 2017 by MakerDAO. Instead of a company holding dollars in a bank, DAI mints when users lock crypto collateral…
Cat season is back on Solana. CATE, the self-described cat sister of Dogecoin, went up 100% over the weekend and now sits around a $74 million market cap. A fresh Gate listing poured fuel on the fire. I also have a confession to make about this coin, and it stings. Let’s break down what CATE is, why it pumped, and how I managed to sell the exact bottom.What Is the CATE Memecoin?CATE is a cat-themed memecoin that fair launched on Solana through pump.fun on July 26, 2026. The spark came from an unlikely place. Atsuko Sato, the owner of Kabosu,…
The most important crypto bill in Washington finally gets a floor moment. On Tuesday, September 15 at 2:15 pm ET, the Senate votes on cloture for the motion to proceed to H.R. 3633, better known as the Clarity Act. That mouthful of procedure translates to one simple question: does the Senate even want to debate this thing?Sixty votes decide it. Nobody in Washington claims to know if they exist. Meanwhile, Polymarket traders have nearly tripled the odds of the bill becoming law this year, and crypto is outperforming stocks on the optimism. Here’s the full picture before the gavel drops.What…
Two weeks in the Netherlands with my wife and kids. Theme parks, family visits, way too many frikandellen. The whole trip got covered by trading memecoins from my phone while the kids were playing.That is the short version of my FOMO app review. The longer version involves around $250k in volume over those two weeks, a painful misclick on the toilet, and a genuinely new way of deciding which coins to hold. Let’s get into it.Trading on holiday on the FOMO appI took out my initial deposit early, so everything on that graph is pure profit. I won’t share exact…
The Ether.fi card has been my daily spending card for months now. I pay for my Claude and ChatGPT subscriptions with it, cover most of my online shopping, and let the cashback stack quietly in the background. This week the team shipped a full membership revamp, with category boosts up to 30% and instant tier upgrades, so the timing felt right for a proper Ether.fi card review.We know this project well at AirdropAlert. Our team farmed several seasons of their airdrops, and we covered the Ether.fi neobank upgrade in August. Today we zoom in on the card itself: how the…
Politicians discovered memecoins, and crypto has been paying the price ever since. In the span of about eighteen months, we got a sitting US president, a first lady, an Argentine head of state, an entire African nation, and a former president’s son all launching tokens. Almost every single one ended in disaster for retail buyers.I traded several of these myself, made money on one, got rugged on another, and watched the rest implode from the sidelines. This listicle ranks the worst political memecoins so far, ending with the one launch I’d actually call a success (with a big asterisk). If…
It’s Sunday again, which means throwback time. A few weeks back, I told you the first half of my poker story — the rakeback grind, the volume trap, break-even poker with bonus income keeping me alive, and the move to Italy. Today I’m telling you how it ended. And the ending is the part nobody believes: I quit right after my most profitable year, walked away from the game at my absolute peak, and never sat down professionally again.This is the story of the four years where I finally got good — and why getting good made it easier to…
This part of the world has given me some of my favorite travel memories, full stop. South Korea meant late nights on soju and endless rounds of Korean BBQ that I still think about years later. Japan delivered a full cultural immersion, and a handful of meals there still sit in my personal top ten of all time. In 2013, I spent a month training kung fu at a monastery in Wudangshan on mainland China, followed by a stretch of travel across the mainland itself. Macau has pulled me back for a visit almost every year since, a habit I…
