🧬 Scientists Just Nuked the APR Illusion

👁 A brand-new study from the Journal of the British Blockchain Association (May 2025) analysed 3M Uniswap-style LP positions.

Key finding:
→ At a 0.3 % fee tier, 55 % of pools still lose money vs. HODL
→ Drop the fee to 0.1 % and >70 % of positions bleed

🔎 Turns out fees rarely cover impermanent loss once price moves >7 %.

Liquidity ≠ free yield. Unless you model IL, you’re exit liquidity.

⭐️ Highlights
• Data set: 28 DEXes, 24 000 token pairs :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
• IL kicks in even on “stable-stable” pairs when volatility >1 % / day
• Fee schedule matters more than APR banners

🔥 Should You Join the Pump.fun ICO? Pros & Cons Breakdown

Let’s be real — opinions are split. Here's a quick run-through of both sides:

❌ Why You Might Want to Skip:
• Exit-First Mentality: Pump.fun has been mostly market-selling their SOL profits, draining liquidity instead of building long-term value.
• Bonk > Pump: Bonk’s platform is pulling 2x more revenue and 2x more market share, and they're actually using fees for buybacks — unlike Pump.
• Greedy Strategy: They could’ve gone for a fair launch like Hyperliquid (use fees to pump the token), but chose to maximize retail extraction instead.
• Bottom Line: They’ve already dumped over $700M+ in fees into the market — and now want more from retail via the ICO.

✅ Why You Might Still Ape In:
• PUMP = Ecosystem Glue: If $PUMP dies, so does the memecoin game. Whether you're in Launchcoin or Bonk, you want Pump to moon.
• It’s a Real Business: They identified a pain point, built a unique product, and scaled fast. That’s what winning looks like.
“They dumped $750M in SOL!”
• That’s called treasury management. They cashed out to stable value so they can pay staff, servers — and maybe pizza.

“Why raise more if they’re rich?”
Every major startup (Amazon, OpenAI…) raises capital to accelerate. More $$ = faster growth = more users = more value.

👉 So… which camp are you in?

🇺🇸 Trump’s Truth Social Plans to Launch a Utility Shitcoin

Truth Social — Trump’s media platform — is reportedly cooking up its very own utility token, to be farmed through user activity and subscriptions to their upcoming streaming service, Truth+.

💳 The token will supposedly let you:

• Pay for Truth+
• Possibly buy other “premium” products from the ecosystem

👉 No mention of real-world utility (shocker), but sounds like another reward token with questionable value.
