Thoughts on MANTA: Binance Launchpool

16 Jan 2024 3 minute read 0 comments bengy

Holy crap, this is now the 5th Launchpool within two months for Binance. Either we are definitely heading into a serious bull market, or Binance is desperately trying to find use cases to help pump BNB. In either case, it is a decent time to be...

6 Jan 2024 3 minute read 0 comments bengy

I think that we are definitely heading into some sort bull season... all the crowdsales, IEOs, and IDOs are all starting up again and they are coming thick and fast. I had mentioned that Binance had a flurry of four quick Launchpools and CoinList ha...

  This is something that I've been meaning to do for quite a while... and of course, in hindsight, it was probably better to do this a year or so ago when the stock market was still down in comparison today... but still, better late than never for...

Unsplash     Unsplash   Now that Binance is going to be under a minimum of 5 years of surveillance from the US Department of Justice and other organisations, I thought that it would be a good time to start looking at other CEXs. Not because I...

Thoughts on Sleepless AI (AI): Binance Launchpool

28 Dec 2023 3 minute read 1 comment bengy

  Phew... another Binance Launchpool... this is the third in about a month or so, and each of them has been a nice chance to pick up some listing profit and a small moonbag for the incoming bull market. I do find many of the Binance Launchpools to b...

  Hmmmm.... a really short Binance Launchpool is starting up tomorrow, just 5 days for entire event from initial staking through to the complete distribution. Oddly fast... these things usually span about 30 days or something like that. Anyway, like...
