For people in the circle, rolling coins is cool for a while, and rolling coins is always cool.

When a group of people welcomed Bitcoin's strong breakthrough of 28,000 US dollars, another wave of old fritters was "showing off their wealth in Versailles"!

Wanhui, a well-known KOL in the currency circle, paid more than 200,000 US dollars for nothing on the latest airdrop project "1inch" in the currency circle. Her friend is even more "a strong player in rolling coins", and 1.2 million 1inches have brought 1.2-3.6 million dollars in revenue (the current price of 1inch is 1.02$, and the highest price is 3.03$).

Watching her Weibo, others may sigh that she is really "a combination of beauty, wealth and talent".

In addition, the financial blogger Shenyu also made a show, making a small profit of 88,429 1inch (currently worth 90,000 US dollars), so that the citric acid in the comment area overflowed.

By the way, in August this year, this guy made a net profit of 5 million dollars with a principal of 3 million dollars through Sushi mining, and it only took 5 days.

He said, "It's not about luck, nor about skill, it's about familiarity. When it comes to making money, the difference between people is only in cognition and execution. If you understand clearly, you have to dare to make big bets." .Bold and careful, like a million troops crossing the river in the chest and calm as water."

Whenever people outside the circle lament that there are so many "Ponzi schemes, air coins, escapes and frauds", veteran drivers in the circle will say with a smile, "Everyone who comes is a customer, and whoever comes is a friend."

As long as the knowledge is good enough, there are really many money-making projects.

As I write this, I can't help but shed sad tears.

In 2020, 1inch, meme, uni and other airdrop projects were all flashed by me.

Thousands of flowers pass by, not a single leaf sticks to the body.

People received coins, and I received a lonely one, which made me cry for a while.

1inch

——The most lucky person paid $29.25 million for free prostitution

We have all used platforms such as Meituan, JD.com, and Taobao, right?

These platforms are actually similar to an aggregator, which aggregates different merchants and users.

Similarly, aggregators are also very important in the DeFi ecosystem and can help users capture value. For example, transaction aggregators, such as 1inch Exchange, can serve users by providing ways to optimize prices and increase revenue.

Meituan and Ele.me are the leaders, and they are very popular.

1inch is the platform with the largest transaction volume among transaction aggregation applications, so it is naturally not bad.

1inch, established in June 2019, has won the favor of investors such as Binance Labs and Galaxy Digital. It currently integrates DEX protocols such as Airswap, Uniswap, Uniswap2, Kyber, Curve, Oasis, 0x, dForce Swap, etc., and aggregates liquidity for Users provide the best transaction path.

During Christmas, 1inch officially deployed the token contract and airdropped 90 million 1inch tokens to users.

To receive the airdrop, one of the following conditions must be met:

① At least one transaction before September 15;

② A total of at least 4 transactions;

③ The total transaction amount is at least 20 US dollars;

④ 1inch liquidity provider mining in the first and second stages.

It is reported that more than 55,200 addresses are eligible to receive free 1inch tokens, and a DeFi trader who received the most airdrops received 9.75 million tokens (the highest value is 29.25 million US dollars), and the average number of tokens for eligible addresses is about 1629 (up to a value of $4887). At least at least, one address can also guarantee to get 600 1inch (the maximum value is 1800 US dollars).

Based on a total of 1.5 billion pieces of 1inch and a current price of 1 US dollar, the fully diluted market value is 1.5 billion US dollars, which has shrunk by 66% from the highest point.

As long as I run fast, the main force can't cut me.

MEME

——The Most Magical Rich Project of the Year

You may not believe it, MEME founder Jordan Lyall did not expect one of his ideas to be so popular!

It's like an ordinary young man who suddenly fell in love at first sight with a group of people, not a young and beautiful Bai Fumei.

At the beginning, Jordan Lyall tweeted a slogan, "It only takes 5 minutes to create a DeFi project on MEME."

Many people see, "It's interesting, let's make it."

With hundreds of people pouring into the MEME official website, the community took shape, and 30 minutes later, the MEME token was born.

After referring to the limited issuance practice of the predecessor YFI (called Uncle in the Jianghu), the total supply of MEME tokens is set at 28,000, and the initial issuance will be in the form of an evenly distributed airdrop, with 350 coins airdropped per person and 73 people airdropped.

It's already magical that things can develop so quickly.

What's even more strange is that the price of MEME rose from $11 to $40 that day. In the end, breaking through $1,000 within a month made this group of guys pay an average of $350,000 for nothing.

It didn't take long from the idea to a group of people getting rich.

One day in the currency circle, one year for others, it can be seen.

So, everyone gave MEME a title - fighter jet in the airdrop world.

When I researched, I found that the reason why MEME is so popular is because of the general trend of NFT.

It is estimated that the cumulative transaction volume of the NFT market in 2020 will be nearly 46 million US dollars.

On the MEME website, people can use ETH to buy NFT cards created by artists.

Although we don't understand the beauty of art, this group of people always reminds me of the post-00s who speculate on shoes and blind boxes in China.

To this day, the price of a MEME is still as high as $364.

Even, the address of the website is "dontbuymeme.com".

This is truly an amazing pineapple.

Did you think that was the end of the matter?

After MEME became popular, copycat imitation disks also followed the trend to keep up with the DeFi+NFT concept storm.

One of the FEW projects, which is preparing to cooperate with large investors to cut leeks, took 2 hours from birth to death, which can be called "the DeFi project with the shortest survival time in history".

The meat was not eaten, and it caused a commotion.

Uniswap

——1.6 billion US dollars super big red envelope

Fortune and misfortune depend on each other, and it couldn't be more suitable for Uniswap founder Hayden Adams.

On July 6, 2017, Adams was fired from his job as a mechanical engineer at Siemens. Disappointed with himself and without direction in his life, he turned to his friend Karl Floersch for comfort.

Here's the conversation between the two:

- i just got fired

— Congratulations, the best thing that ever happened to you! ! Mechanical engineering is a dying field. Ethereum is the future and you are not too late. Your new mission is to write smart contracts!

— Don’t I need to know how to code?

— Actually not, the code is very simple. Few people understand how to write smart contracts, Ethereum, PoS, trustless computing, etc. from the beginning.

-All right……

In this way, Adams learned Ethereum, Solidy and Java, and focused on development, and completed the first POC smart contract product, which was the prototype of Uniswap.

However, it was not until November 2, 2018 that Adams tweeted that Uniswap was officially launched. At the time, he had only 200 followers on Twitter.

In September of this year, Uniswap's lock-up volume was US$1.86 billion, surpassing Maker and ranking first in the lock-up volume of DeFi projects.

Then came the day of throwing money away.

Uniswap announced: As long as they used Uniswap to participate in transactions before September 1, each user will receive at least 400 UNI rewards (currently worth $9,352).

Some users sighed, "Uniswap's airdrop is too valuable, and it's the first time I have received such a large amount of airdrop."

The entire currency circle is reveling in this, because there are as many as 180,000 eligible addresses.

In other words, based on the fact that one UNI is worth $23 today, Uniswap issued a huge red envelope of $1.6 billion in one breath.

CoinShares Strategy Officer Meltem Demirors commented: "In an era when people are greedy and vicious, Uniswap has done some generous and charitable things. This unexpected approach is very special."

It is also a happy day for Adams. He once said,

"It's the most fun thing I've ever done in my life, and it doesn't even feel like work."

In addition to 1inch, MEME and UNI mentioned above, Mirror Protocol and Tokenlon also released airdrop rewards.

It's just that the project party seemed relatively stingy (the reward was about a few hundred dollars), and was ridiculed by the crowd.

For people in the circle, rolling coins is cool for a while, and rolling coins is always cool.
