The chance of making money on Binance listings is only 37% 😧

Analysis of all tokens listed on Binance in 2025 shows that even with a perfect strategy (enter on the first day, exit on the peak) - the probability of being in the plus does not exceed 37%.

Why this happens:
- Binance is likely charging high listing fees
- For many tokens, listing is the final pampa
- After listing, the “post-hype” phase and protracted correction begins

Listing no longer = guaranteed growth. The market has become different - and blindly going “to Binance” doesn't work anymore

🔥 Token2049 — A Turning Point for Crypto Narratives?

Token2049 kicks off on April 30 — one of the biggest crypto conferences of the year. With dozens of panels and project announcements, it could mark a narrative shift for the space.

A quick scan of the agenda reveals a heavy AI focus, including the emerging DeFAI trend — a fusion of DeFi and AI that’s been gaining traction since late last year.

Historically, such events have influenced market narratives. Last year’s example: Murad’s speech helped spark the memecoin boom.

This year, expect:

• A push for new narratives, especially in AI infrastructure, autonomous agents, and modular tech
• A shift from hype to more foundational themes like RWA and a fresh take on DeFi
• No clear dominant trend — but that’s often when new ideas are born

Watch closely. The next big crypto wave might just start here.

Hayes believes it’s time to go long — on both crypto and equities.
