⭐ 6 Things You Shouldn’t Miss

🚨 Some Coinbase customer service employees were bribed by cybercriminals to leak customer data including KYC details. Those hackers tried to extort $20 million in Bitcoin from Coinbase yet it launched a $20 million bounty to hunt the extortionists. This costs them $180M to $400M in cleanup and customer reimbursements.

📉 Pi Network team is facing criticism after launching Pi Network Ventures, a $100 million fund to support startups building on its ecosystem. But it just sparks backlash as community expected tangible app progress after 6 years of delays and unmet promises. $PI.X ( ▼ 19.64% ) token fell 50%, dropping below $1.

🚀 CoinMarketCap, owned by Binance, introduces CMC Launch, a pre-TGE launchpad platform to connect quality crypto projects with its 70M monthly users. Its first project, Aster, launches AST token airdrop as the inaugural project on CMC Launch. This is its entry into the crypto launchpad space, competing with: Pump.fun or Raydium LaunchLab.

💰 FTX is set to distribute over $5 billion to its creditors starting May 30 as part of its court-approved bankruptcy recovery plan. Payouts are just calculated based on the U.S. dollar value of holdings at the time of FTX’s collapse in November 2022, not now? So, recoveries only range from 54% to 120% of the original claims.

💳 Mastercard and MoonPay have officially launched a new stablecoin payment card. It allows users to pay with stablecoins like USDT at over 150 million Mastercard merchants globally. They want to redefine how money moves globally.

🔴 SEC investigates Coinbase over suspected “inflation” of user data during and after its 2021 IPO. At that time, Coinbase claimed to have over 100 million “verified users” - not just active traders. In 2023, Coinbase switched to reporting “monthly transacting users” for a clearer view of real activity.

💎 Tweet + No code + No Cost = Coin Live

From April 14 to May 23, 2025, Solana memecoin trading volume skyrocketed to over $2.3B/day. And the decentralized launchpad platforms? They're killing it.

Here's what you need to know:

• pumpdotfun – Still the big dog, handling ~70% of the volume

• MeteoraAG – Solid 2nd place

• believeapp – Just launched, but already in the top 3! And get this – their $LAUNCHCOIN.X ( ▲ 7.04% ) token is up hundreds of times in just a few days. 🚀

Solana’s LaunchCoin, the main token on the Believe platform, just exploded — up a whopping 15,500% in one week! It shot from $0.0025 (May 8) all the way to $0.39 (May 16).

According to Lookonchain,

• An anonymous trader bought about $9,075 worth of $LAUNCHCOIN.X ( ▲ 7.04% ) and flipped it into $4.7 million. That’s a crazy 517x return!

• Another trader, pseudonymously known as Pow, has recorded an over 7x return on LAUNCHCOIN, comes from zero to $2.7M.

• But this guy had bad luck. Buying 45 million $LAUNCHCOIN.X ( ▲ 7.04% ) near its peak for $828K but sold them after a 90% crash for just $29K, losing $800K. With more patience, they could have made $7.3M.

1️⃣ What Makes Believe app Tick?

• It’s Web2.5 vibes: tweet-to-token model. Just reply to a tweet with @launchcoin + token name, and boom, you’ve got a memecoin.

→ This makes everything super easy. No forms to fill out, no convincing a DAO, no spending days growing a Discord community. Just a quick, simple way for anyone to launch a token with a single tweet.

• In 24 hours, over 5,000 tokens created. $500M+ in daily volume. This thing is growing fast.

The “Believe” Model:

• Bonding curve + anti-snipe fees

• 50% fee sharing for issuers when tokens hit $100k cap

• Expect a wave of “trust spam” — yeah, it’s wild.

2️⃣ Why Did $LAUNCHCOIN.X ( ▲ 7.04% ) Jump So High?

Big boost came from a new game called Noodle by Alex Leiman (creator of viral hits like RizzGPT and Astra). It’s a crypto twist on Snake, where you earn real tokens by playing.

This play-to-earn angle is putting Believe on the map for blending fun and finance.

Believe’s founder, Ben Pasternak, teased upcoming tools for creators to customize tokens and integrate them with external products. A new SDK is also coming soon.

Behind the scenes, Believe is growing fast, aiming to pull in more creators and projects.

3️⃣ The Catch Is … What Is The Risk

• These tokens are “digital merch” to avoid SEC trouble.

• The insane growth and ease of meme creation could lead to a lot of junk tokens. The flood of memecoins might cause some serious liquidity issues like Pumpdotfun.

For those willing to take the risk, tracking these tokens is key!

• You don’t actually own the token infrastructure. Believe handles everything behind the scenes — they might even control things like minting or freezing tokens. So, it’s not a full transfer of ownership. If your private key gets exposed, that’s game over.

• No instant full payout. Founders get their funds in chunks, not all at once. It’s meant to prevent rug pulls, but it also kills the usual pump-and-dump flow.

🔥🔥 Trader Take: LaunchCoin is a perfect example of how fast and easy crypto is getting. Launching a token with just a tweet? That’s next-level simple. But with all that ease comes some risk - lots of memecoins popping up means not every project will last. It’s exciting and fun, but you gotta watch your step. This space is moving fast, so stay sharp!

🔥 ICM Narrative - Frontier of Funding on the Internet

2020: DeFi → 2021: NFTs → 2024: AI Agents →
2025: Welcome to Internet Capital Markets (ICM).

ICM is coming in hot, outpacing everything else with mind-blowing growth. It already stole the spotlight from the Solana ecosystem and is now going after the entire crypto market.

ICM’s narrative performance over the past 7 days: +2336%. For comparison, other sectors maxed out at around ~48%.

So what is ICM, and how do you ride this wave?

1️⃣ Rewind: How We Got Here – The Traditional Market Mess

Back in the 1960s, the US stock market was chaos. People were trading paper stock certificates faster than they could be processed.

• In 1968, shipping losses hit $4 billion, causing the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to close 1 day/week.

• Firms like Dempsey-Tegeler, a brokerage firm, went bankrupt – shipping debts were 2x their assets.

• From 1969–1970, the market lost $400M.

To fix this:

• Congress passed the SIPA Act (1970) → Created Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) to protect investors.

• By 1975, the Depository Trust Company (DTC) centralized paper certificates digitally.

But while that solved the paperwork mess, it created a spaghetti of middlemen - brokers, clearinghouses, exchanges - all taking a cut.

2️⃣ What is The Traditional Stock Market Like Now?

Buying a stock? Here’s what happens:

1. You place an order through a broker.

2. Broker sends it to an exchange like NYSE/Nasdaq, or to a market maker.

3. DTCC clears the trade.

4. Ownership updates electronically — but only T+1 (1 business day later).

Every step involves fees, commissions, delays, and middlemen. Even worse, retail investors have no direct access - everything funnels through a broker.

And if DTCC has an issue? The entire market could freeze.

3️⃣ Enter ICM – The Internet Capital Markets Era

Now imagine a system where:

• Anyone can raise capital.

• No banks. No paperwork. No VC gatekeepers.

• Just launch an idea → get a token → get funding.

This is a completely new way of playing, like a wide open financial market, anyone can jump in, no need to be rich or have connections. No IPO. No intermediaries. Just you and the internet.

From what I see, this model is basically similar to how Ethereum launched with ICOs, but now it has a new name and a different way of doing the Token Generation Event (TGE) — a new narrative.

People naturally love stories, especially new ones. That’s why ICM is gaining attention and creating waves in the Solana ecosystem.

Some are calling ICM the next-gen SocialFi, where memes, products, AI, and tokenomics collide 😂

In January 2025, founder Ben Pasternak launched Believe / LaunchCoin: just tweet “$TICKER + @launchcoin + Project Name,” and a bot will instantly deploy the contract on Solana, set up the liquidity curve, and send you the buy/sell link.

The token creator automatically receives 50% of the transaction fees — enough to kickstart the project if the community supports it. This seemingly “crazy” formula quickly spread: every idea, every story, even every joke can be “tokenized”.

And ICM officially became a hot keyword, even mentioned on Solana’s official X page.

⚠️ But because anyone can create tokens, there are many token scams with fake projects.

🔥 Quick Recap of BelieveApp - Top #1 Project in Narratives ICM

Token Mechanism:

• Starts with bonding curve and anti-sniping fee

• Once a token hits $100K market cap, it “graduates” to Meteora DEX

• Creators get 50% of transaction fees – incentivizing content, creativity, community

Believe’s goal: Democratize venture capital, onboard Web2 users & developers into Web3. But keep in mind: SEC regulations and meme-level volatility are real risks.
