With pairings to all the top alts we finally wont need to rotate chains as often, in the shorttherm yes probably lot of big guys will try to repeat the pons trade but all the inactive chains like hype,zec,btc,link etc will never have a sustained onchain activity they can just do it on solana now but most of these chain launchpads will trend to zero since there wont be longtherm activity main focus of this cycle will be probably mainly solana and RH and some nice gems on bnb and base occasional chain rotation but all the other alts can be just paired here and lets say you like hype or zcash you can just buy memes directly paired to it and enjoy the upside of your favorite token while also recieving dividends but as always in a goldrush first everything gets worst and more rotational until the true winners get sustained users

when in a gold rush, sell shovels one rarely talked about passive income stream you can build in crypto is trading bot referral codes it allows you to make money during memecoin seasons without even having to participate in them a year and a half ago i started my public vibecoding journey, back when prompting was still hard, mostly building free tooling for CT: batch airdrop checkers, KOL trackers, and ways to monitor new KOL coin launches across different launchpads (zora, boopfun, believe, bags...) the most profitable by far ended up being the latter the formula was pretty simple: a website + telegram announcement channel that notified traders, with very low latency, whenever a potentially interesting new coin launched (also scanning socials and providing a score) whenever i built one of these, i added an easy "trade" button linking to the most popular trading bots naturally, a lot of people using those bots for the first time signed up through my refcode fast forward a year+ those old signups are still making me ~$1.5k/day in fees, essentially passively, just because i built free, useful public-good tooling for onchain traders "build useful free tools and collect passive income around them" has been one of my favorite metas and the barrier to building this stuff has never been lower i'm also likely near the bottom of the refcode leaderboards. imagine what tools like rick bot are making every day for providing a free service

BREAKING: Global physical gold-backed ETFs attracted +$6.4 billion in inflows last week, their largest weekly intake since January.

Weekly AI Update The AI chip gold rush has a new banker worth $2.4B Volta Infra, a brand new AI cloud startup, just raised $300 million plus $5 billion in financing to help more companies afford Nvidia's pricey chips, not just the tech giants. Backed by Nvidia, Michael Dell, Andreessen Horowitz, and Altimeter, it has already locked in a $10 billion contract to supply cloud capacity to an unnamed AI developer over six years. The bet is that whoever solves AI's financing problem wins, though critics warn of risky circular deals and a coming shakeout. Google's $1.5B play for Mechanize could finally fix its coding AI problem Google is reportedly in talks to pay around $1.5 billion to license technology from Mechanize, a young AI startup building simulated environments and benchmarks to train coding agents, while also hiring some of its top evaluation experts. The move fits a familiar Google playbook of striking talent and licensing deals that sidestep antitrust scrutiny, much like its earlier tie-ups with Windsurf and The goal is clear: close the gap with Anthropic's Claude Code and OpenAI's Codex, which have pulled ahead in the fast growing market for AI coding tools. Anthropic wants to build its own chips to run Claude faster and cheaper Anthropic confirmed it is assembling a custom silicon team to design its own AI chips, hiring engineers who will develop hardware and models together so Claude can run faster and at greater scale. The move puts it alongside OpenAI, Google, and Meta, all of which have pushed into custom chips, though building an advanced one can cost close to half a billion dollars. It is the latest piece of a massive infrastructure push that also includes a $15 billion Texas data center campus and deals with $AMZN, $NVDA, $AMD, and Samsung.
