Sponsor: Cartesi — Tap into the power of Linux, the simple way to build in Web3.
Base is rapidly becoming a hotspot for memecoins, and one intriguing new project here is rug.fun.
Rug.fun is a gamified token launch platform created by the Context team, combining fair launch mechanics, an AI agent called Dotto, and a prize pool system to reward the most promising tokens.
The platform's design, which is playful yet functional and situated atop Uniswap V3, incentivizes quality over quantity when it comes to new tokens.
Keen to explore this quirky new Base app for yourself? Here's everything you need to know to dive in! 👇
Cartesi has announced the addition of a Validator Marketplace to its roadmap—a decentralized platform connecting dApp developers with validators. This marketplace aligns incentives within the ecosystem, boosts CTSI token utility, and offers a solution for unlocking the full potential of appchains, even beyond Cartesi.
You know the Squidward window meme where he's watching Spongebob and Patrick have fun outside without him? That's me right now watching the early testers of Frens.
All joking aside, Frens is an up-and-coming crypto social chat app. The big idea? The app lets you spin up group chats where members' buys and sells on Ethereum and Solana are collectively tracked.
From alpha leaks to bragging rights, there's a lot of fun possibilities here around making crypto trading more social. I definitely want in!
That said, the app is currently invite-only, but you can go ahead and join the waitlist to get ready like I have. I'm seeing a lot more chatter about Frens on X and Farcaster lately, so it's a good time to put it on your radar.
