🙏 LBankers, This is my way of keeping you updated on a weekly basis, sharing what we are building, where we are making progress, and what matters most across LBank. The market never stands still, and neither should we. This week was a strong reminder that growth is not one metric. It is product, security, culture, liquidity, and community moving forward together. Here is what we achieved: 1️⃣ Pudgy Penguins Momentum Keeps Building. Our $500,000 LBank × Pudgy Penguins campaign moved into full-scale execution across trading, Earn, onboarding, and community participation. The biggest signal came from the community. Our dedicated X Space reached: • 176,000+ participants • 7,251 peak concurrent listeners • 565,000+ impressions • #1# among live Spaces on X that week Two rounds of global PR also reached 1,210 English-language media outlets, with an estimated potential audience of 63.95M. This is what happens when culture, community, and product come together properly. 2️⃣ CoinMarketCap Highlights LBank as a Key $PENGU Catalyst 📈 One of the most interesting moments this week came from outside LBank. CoinMarketCap’s analysis of $PENGU’s price movement cited our Pudgy Penguins partnership and the $500,000 campaign as the primary positive catalyst behind the move. Independent market recognition matters. It shows that these collaborations are going beyond impressions and becoming part of the wider market conversation. 3️⃣ Building a More Resilient LBank 🔐 We launched the Crypto Resilience Initiative with CertiK, strengthening our security framework across penetration testing, cold wallet protection, multi-signature authorization, behavioral analysis, AI-powered risk detection, and continuous monitoring. Security is not something you announce once and move on from. It has to evolve with the market. That will remain one of our core priorities as we scale. 4️⃣ The third LBank × YETI collaboration video went live this week, continuing the story we have been building around the partnership. At the same time, our $SHIB 6th Anniversary campaign continues rewarding the community across multiple trading tracks. Different communities, different formats, same principle: build with the people who actually make crypto culture what it is. 5️⃣ Independent Recognition Continues to Stack Up 🏆 Several external signals reinforced LBank’s market position this week: • ranked LBank #2# for high-leverage U.S. stock futures trading, highlighting our 100+ supported stock futures markets and up to 50x leverage. • CryptoRank placed LBank in the global Top 9 for July spot CEX volume, with $24B in volume and 2.97% market share. • LBank was also named “Best Global CEX Company 2026” by Global Excellence Chronicle Magazine. These are independent signals, not internal claims, and that distinction matters. A lot happened this week, but the direction stays simple. Build stronger products. Protect users. Stay close to the community. Keep earning attention instead of demanding it. We keep moving. ✊ #LBank# #Crypto# #Web3# #LBankWeekly#
