#CryptoNews Bantr @Bantr_fun
Hey, guys, ETH is still falling despite our hopes. Today, let's take a look at a new project called 【Web3 social new play, ordinary people can also enjoy the dividends】—Bantr. This thing (@Bantr_fun) claims to be "the first engine that turns social influence into product behavior." Sounds a bit fancy, doesn't it? #COOKIE @cookiedotfun KAITO @KaitoAI @orphLayer
1. What is Bantr?
In simple terms, Bantr is a Web3-based social platform that combines the Farcaster protocol and the Base chain, designed for content creators and ordinary users. It is different from traditional social media; it does not measure who has more followers or likes, but rather looks at your real interactions on X and on-chain behaviors to assess your influence and reward you with ($BANTR tokens)!

What is "real interaction"? For example, when you post, comment, or retweet on X, or participate in some tasks on Bantr (like interacting with a certain project, registering, trading), all of these will be recorded on the blockchain and converted into your "influence score." The higher the score, the more rewards you get! Isn't this turning our everyday activities of scrolling through X and discussing projects into real monetary gains?

Second, why is Bantr gaining popularity?
1. Social + Earnings, ordinary people can also play
Traditional Web3 projects often require you to buy NFTs or engage in DeFi, with barriers to entry that are frighteningly high. Bantr is different; all you need is an X account and a crypto wallet, and you can register and start playing. Post a message, like something, or complete a task to earn points that can be exchanged for $BANTR. It's simply "social mining"! Even beginners can get started; I tried it and just by casually posting, I made it to the leaderboard — the barrier to entry is ridiculously low!

2. Backed by a big player, the ecosystem is reliable
The first collaborative test project of Bantr is Morph, an Ethereum Layer 2 focused on consumer finance, with low gas fees and fast speeds, backed by a prominent team (reportedly with a Coinbase background). They have set aside $500,000 worth of $MORPH tokens for an airdrop reward, with the top 200 creators sharing $450,000, and there is a separate prize pool of $25,000 for the Chinese community! This level of support is rare in the crypto space!

3. Gamified tasks, earn money while playing.
Bantr combines social networking and GameFi with a "task system." You can earn rewards by completing tasks (such as posting, inviting friends, and participating in DeFi projects). This gameplay is somewhat similar to Axie Infinity's "play-to-earn" model from back in the day, but Bantr is simpler; ordinary people can just brush through it and participate, earning while playing, which is awesome!

4. Dividend period, great early opportunity
Currently, there are not many Bantr users, which is considered "early stage." Some people on X are saying that competition is low, and early players can easily achieve high rankings and share more rewards. Think about the Uniswap airdrop back in the day; early players could easily make a profit. Bantr is that kind of opportunity now!

3. Highlights and Potential of Bantr
1. Decentralized social, data transparency
With the Farcaster protocol (a decentralized social protocol based on Ethereum), Bantr allows you to have full control over your data and identity, unlike traditional platforms that are exploited by centralized companies. Coupled with the low Gas fees of the Base chain, ordinary people can freely engage in on-chain operations, maximizing the user experience!

2. Monetizing Influence, the Spring of Creators
Creators (KOLs, bloggers) posting content on Bantr can directly drive the use of projects (for example, encouraging fans to register and trade), and these actions will be recorded on the blockchain, exchanged for rewards. In the future, if you post an X post, it might directly facilitate a DeFi transaction, earning tokens that are worth much more than likes!

3. Community Economy, Long-Term Value
Bantr is not just a posting platform; it aims to create an ecosystem of "community economy." Every interaction you have on the platform adds value to the community and the project, and the platform then distributes that value back to you. This model is somewhat like "DAO + social," and it has significant potential for the future!

4. Risks and Precautions
1. Early projects, token is unstable
Bantr is still in the Beta phase, and the $BANTR token has not officially launched yet, with price and liquidity unknown. Early projects can have high returns, but there may also be a risk of exit scams, so everyone should be cautious before investing and avoid going all in.

2. Depend on X platform
Bantr currently relies mainly on the traffic and interaction from X. If the policies of the X platform change (such as banning Web3-related content), it may affect Bantr's gameplay.

3. Competition will become intense.
It is currently a bonus period, and there are fewer people making it easier to get rewards. However, as the number of users increases, the threshold for the top 200 will definitely rise, so if you want to get a big piece, you need to hurry!

Five, how to participate? Three simple steps!
1. Registration: Go to the Bantr official website (

2. Active: Follow @Bantr_fun on X, post, comment, retweet, and participate in tasks for collaboration projects like Morph.

3. Receive rewards: Based on your "influence score", the platform will distribute $BANTR or $MORPH tokens, and those ranked higher can share a prize pool of $500,000!

6. Opinions on Old 9 Dishes
Brothers, I have been in the crypto world for 8 years and have seen too many projects come and go. The Bantr project caught my eye, why? It combines the complex gameplay of Web3 (on-chain data, DeFi) with our daily habit of scrolling through X, making it low-threshold and high-return, backed by reliable ecosystems like Base and Morph. It's still early, and the bonus period waits for no one, I suggest everyone try it out, reap some benefits, and who knows, it might be the next Uniswap-level opportunity! Of course, the crypto world is unpredictable, so do your homework before investing and don’t rush in blindly. To learn more, search for @Bantr_fun on X, or go directly to the official website.

2. The Amazing Circus $TADC up to 46x, the gaming platform $JAKPOT up to 243x, it's all insider information.

3. Metaplanet has increased its holdings by 775 bitcoins (~$90 million), bringing its total reserves to 18,888 coins. Do the Japanese also believe in the number 8?

4. BNB Micro Strategy increased its holdings by 125,000 $BNB (approximately $100 million), so why did the stock price instead drop by 20%?

5. Bitcoin flipper cashes out $3.5 billion! However, the pullbacks are getting smaller, with a 30% pullback in January, a 12% pullback in May, and only an 8% pullback this month.

Have you noticed, @Aptos this chain is a bit like "the kids from other families."

Good background: Supported by the Diem team from Meta, raised 400 million USD.
Good performance: AptosBFT v4, Block-STM, Move language, the technology is simply textbook level.
Even traditional financial packages like ETFs and ETPs are being actively offered.
But —
When the ecosystem is bleak, the market says: "No matter how great the technology is, if no one uses it, it amounts to zero."
When APT fell in the first half of the year, everyone added: "The rich second generation is unreliable, the market is too big, and it can't be driven."

The ecosystem is coming alive, ETF news is stimulating, and APT is starting to warm up.
A bunch of people were shouting "trash" a few months ago, but now they are quietly recharging their faith off the market.

I have a friend who curses every day: "$APT has no future!"
So what happened? I secretly bought it last week, and they told me: "Actually, I had my eye on it for a long time." 🤡

Another shaky day in the market to remain calm and play games.

Don't see your bags again and again to prevent yourself from panic selling.

I'm hoping that you recently sees about #ETH and other top performing tokens that gives millions to it believers.

So don't overact.

Good morning, brothers!☀️☀️
(A bowl of fresh chicken soup in the morning)

The market is always uncertain; you cannot control the market, but you can control your positions and risks.

Don't borrow money to trade, don't use leverage, and don't do things beyond your own capacity.

Sleeping peacefully is more important than anything else. Preserving the principal is the first principle.

Without capital, no matter how good the opportunity is, it has nothing to do with you.

Why is the market dumping in ATH season?

Crypto is the bleeding market is going through hard correction.

BTC, ETH, and most alts are down 5–10% in 24 hours.

3 main reasons fueling this crash and why it might actually be setting up the next big rally.

I am expecting a sharp dump and sudden all at once recovery this time

Trust me, everything is pre-planned. That's why big whales accumulate big bags, full story 👇🧵

These are the levels I'm watching for ETH/BTC.

If ETH/BTC fails to hold 0.036 level, a correction to 0.032 is highly likely.

I personally don't think that ETH/BTC will go below 0.032

After that, a reversal is imminent which will send ETH/BTC to 0.05 by Q4.

$BTC $116K–117K Range Provides Strong Buying Support. Depending on finding support from this area and gaining upward momentum, the $118K–$120K range will be a critical testing zone. In case of a breakout, the target levels of $121K–$124K come into focus. In downward pressures, it could drop to the $114K level and find deeper support. #Bitcoin

$ETH $4,200–$4,240 range is forming a critical support area. A breakout at $4,500 is important for an upward attempt. If it breaks, $4,773 and $4,882 levels may stand out as sequential targets. If resistance cannot be overcome, a sideways consolidation or plummet scenario may strengthen. #Ethereum

I went, today I encountered a tough one. From the moment I got off the train, he followed me for several hundred meters. At first, he stood to my left front and kept tilting his head to look at me. I pretended to play with my phone, but he kept following. At one point, I slightly raised my head, and he immediately came to ask me for something. I kept refusing, turned him down many times, but he was relentless. Finally, when we reached the exit, I wanted him to go ahead, so I stood still. He stood in front of me, sideways, waiting for me. I didn’t move, and he didn’t move either. We wasted a lot of time. In the end, after exiting, he continued to follow me. I started running, and only then did he stop following. Otherwise, I think he planned to follow me all the way home. Are there really so many creepy guys? It's so disgusting.

刷 Kaito 排行榜,突然蹦出来个新名字—— @Everlyn_ai
At first, I thought it was just another AI project that "boasted endlessly but had a bunch of bugs upon testing." However, after delving deeper, I found it quite interesting:

There are small creators on the leaderboard, and even if they haven't posted many yaps, they can still make it to the top. This indicates that there are no barriers yet, and it feels like first come, first served; those who act quickly get the rewards.

It claims to be the "world's fastest video AI," capable of generating a 5-second video in just a few seconds, with a straightforward price of $0.25/5 seconds. When calculated, it's significantly cheaper than many competitors.
(Compared to Runway, Pika, which easily burn money by the minute, Everlyn is more like a "budget fast-food version.")

I haven't actually run it yet, so I can't confirm the quality 100%.
But their Starter Pack is only $10, and this pricing basically shouts: "Come try it, even if you break it, you won't lose out."
So I plan to give it a try myself and come back to report to everyone.

The leaderboard has just been updated, with no entry barrier + affordable trial, this is usually a good window for "taking advantage of early benefits."
Only those who arrive early are VIPs; don't wait until later when thresholds are set and regret it.
