tech ain't a moat! Seriously, I keep seeing these projects strutting their stuff, bragging about how their tech is going to revolutionize everything, the "next big thing since sliced bread." reality check: NO ONE CARES And I mean that in the nicest way possible. The sooner project teams realize that whatever "cool shit" they’re building isn’t automatically a user magnet, the better off they'll be. Sure, your tech might solve some complex technical problems, but is it a big enough pain point for users? If your solution isn't a massive leap forward, something that genuinely blows ppls minds, they won't care. And frankly, neither would I. caveat: ONLY APPLIES IF RELIANCE IS ON USERS not all projects are created equal. some are purely technical plays, B2B focused. for them, engaging with end-users is irrelevant so they don't care. for projects that do need users, users are your path to a moat that can fend off competition. they’re what allows you to continue developing your tech for years to come. so aligning your plans and incentives with your community is critical. not so hot take: SO MANY TOKENOMIC FUCK UPS it happens all the time; projects teasing airdrops and running campaigns to attract users end up attracting the wrong kind of crowd. starknet, scroll, zksync, blast all learned this the hard way. zetachain and linea tried farming engagement over and over, only to see interest wane. ppl aren’t stupid; they know when they’re being played. airdrop farmers might stick around but even they will disappear post-tge. did you know that blast, starknet, zksync, scroll all rank below pulsechain on defillama? 🤦‍♂️ If you want to build and grow a real community, you need to align the users who already support you and those who are on the fence. Mass airdrop campaigns simply don’t cut it anymore, as we’ve seen with engagement numbers falling from the sky post-tge. hot take: THE TOKEN IS YOUR MAIN PRODUCT a project’s token is the embodiment for alignment and should be considered the project’s primary product in the beginning. it’s the path to nurturing a community and building a sustainable moat. and you don’t just give something valuable away to anyone. only users who are truly aligned with the project should be repeatedly motivated to remain engaged and have a reason to hodl. projects often confuse alignment with tvl, which can turn some users off. it’s like that date who only calls you when they want you to pay; eventually, you’ll end up feeling used. it's good to take a psychological pov on plans and activities designed to repeatedly motivate users. crypto can be a rough ride afterall. if you’re not consistently aligning your actions with your community’s needs, expect a ghost town post-tge and a token that's moving fast to zero. anyway, weekend rant over.

Zoth, an Ethereum-based real-world asset platform, has suffered an $8.85 million exploit after attackers gained unauthorized access to a private key. The breach marks the second major security incident for Zoth in a month, highlighting ongoing vulnerabilities in DeFi protocols. The attacker reportedly compromised the protocol’s deployer wallet, allowing them to upgrade the “USD0PPSubVaultUpgradeable” proxy contract to a contract under their control. This maneuver helped them to withdraw $8.4 million in Zoth’s USD0++ stablecoin, which was quickly swapped for 8.3 million DAI and moved to an external address. In response, Zoth has placed its website in maintenance mode and is working with security partners to assess the damage and prevent further exploits. Proxy contracts, widely used in DeFi for upgradability, introduce a risk when private keys securing them are compromised. The unauthorized upgrade in Zoth’s case demonstrates how attackers can manipulate contract logic to reroute funds without resistance. This breach follows a March 6 exploit in which Zoth lost $285,000 due to a liquidity pool vulnerability. Repeated security failures raise concerns about the platform’s risk management and could invite regulatory scrutiny.

The Open House Group, a leading real estate company listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, has announced that it now accepts XRP, Solana, and Dogecoin for payments. Open House, which added cryptocurrency payments to its accepted payment options in January this year, said it is expanding the offering to include three more crypto tokens. As well as XRP ( XRP ), Open House customers can now use Solana ( SOL ) and Dogecoin ( DOGE ) to handle real estate payments with the firm. With crypto adoption on the rise across the world amid regulatory clarity, Open House says demand for crypto transactions is huge. Given its integrated approach across the real estate space, the publicly-listed company sees crypto as a pillar of future growth. XRP, SOL and DOGE now join Bitcoin ( BTC ) and Ethereum ( ETH ) as accepted payment options for services and goods covering Open House Group’s suite of products — from property acquisition to design, construction and sales to management. “This expansion ensures our global clients with greater flexibility in their investment process, subject to compliance with their country’s regulations,” Open House wrote. Open House ranks among top real estate firms in Japan, and boasts over ¥1 trillion, about $6.7 billion, in annual sales. While it only began accepting BTC and ETH in January 2025, it has championed crypto and blockchain integration for a few years now. The company started to explore the potential application of crypto and blockchain technology in business in 2022. Open House’s involvement within the industry includes its sponsorship of a research initiative on Bitcoin’s Lightning Network. Notably, Yokiko Nishimura, who heads the firm’s crypto initiative, has helped bring crypto solutions to local financial institutions and crypto exchanges since 2015. Earlier this year, Japan’s Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba weighed in on the issue of crypto adoption, noting that digital assets and web3 are important to the country’s development and innovation. A positive approach to crypto has seen the Japanese Cabinet approve the Payment Services Act, which is set to provide regulatory guidelines for stablecoins and crypto brokerages in Japan.

South Korea’s Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit (FIU) is significantly increasing its enforcement on cryptocurrency exchanges, both within the country and operating internationally. With regulatory compliance under intense scrutiny, the FIU has initiated actions against multiple trading platforms, signaling a clear and strict stance against crypto-related service providers. The FIU is also taking decisive measures against unregistered overseas exchanges, including prominent names like BitMEX and CoinW, citing violations of South Korea’s Specific Financial Transaction Information Reporting and Use Act. Authorities plan to block access to these non-compliant platforms for Korean users, a move aimed at curbing unregulated cryptocurrency trading. Reports indicate that another overseas exchange was also targeted in this action. This development has triggered concerns among market participants, who fear restricted access to widely used trading platforms. So far, the affected exchanges have not released official statements addressing the FIU’s actions. “This action reflects a growing trend among governments to enforce stricter regulations on crypto exchanges operating within their jurisdictions,” said crypto analyst Alan Brown. Related: Bitcoin Not Suitable for Reserves, Says South Korea’s Central Bank Upbit, one of South Korea’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, has also faced regulatory headwinds. The FIU reportedly issued a suspension notice against Upbit in January over alleged Know Your Customer (KYC) violations. Dunamu, the exchange’s partner firm which operates Upbit’s South Korean business, also received a three-month suspension notice in late February due to a “violation of the obligation to prohibit transactions with unreported virtual asset operators.” In a separate, high-profile development , South Korean prosecutors raided the offices of Bithumb on March 20th following allegations of significant financial misconduct involving its former CEO, Kim Dae-sik. Prosecutors suspect Kim embezzled substantial funds from the exchange, including a 3 billion Korean won (over $2 million) apartment lease deposit, to finance a personal real estate purchase. Regarding the potential for a strategic reserve of digital assets, the Bank of Korea issued a statement , confirming that the central bank is not interested in acquiring Bitcoin (BTC). Related: South Korea to Release Institutional Crypto Investment Guidelines in Q3 2025 Earlier this month, South Korea’s Democratic Party was asked to persuade the Bank of Korea to discuss the potential benefits of a strategy Bitcoin reserve, similar to US President Donald Trump’s administration. The inherent volatility of BTC led the central bank to swiftly reject the idea of a strategic Bitcoin reserve. As per CoinMarketCap , Bitcoin soared to an all-time high of $109,114.88 two months ago and currently trades at $84,106.10, down 22% from those levels.
