Crypto Funding Weekly: $110M Poured into AI and DeFi Projects (June 16-22)
When VCs Bring Knives to a AI Gunfight
Watching these so-called ‘smart money’ players spread $110M across 16 deals is like watching hedge funds try TikTok dances - awkwardly predictable. The real comedy? Four AI projects swallowed 42% of the capital while DeFi got table scraps.
My Quant’s Gut Check:
- Cluely’s $15M for spy-grade Zoom assistance? Just say you want to short human productivity.
- PrismaX paying crypto bounties for robot training data? Crowdsourcing Skynet never sounded so… blockchainy.
This liquidity fragmentation has VCs playing penny slots instead of high-stakes poker. As my Ukrainian grandma would say: “Коли гроші розпиляють, залишаються тільки тирса” (When money gets scattered, only sawdust remains).
Place your bets - which AI project implodes first?
Is the 'Mouth-Rugging' Economy Still Sustainable? Beyond the Noise in Crypto Marketing
Mouth-Rugging: The New Bull Market?
Let’s be real — if your project’s only fanbase is people who show up for free tokens and vanish like Wi-Fi after 5G hits… you’re not building an economy. You’re running a one-day flea market.
I tracked 12 projects using Kaito & Clout Pro. Conversion rates? 1.5%. Google Ads beats that. That’s not marketing failure — it’s emotional extortion with a spreadsheet.
No Amount of Volume Hides Bad Music
As @leonabboud said: “No amount of volume can hide bad music.” And yet we keep paying influencers to scream into voids like they’re selling snake oil at a Renaissance fair.
But here’s the twist: Virtuals saw 35% of Genesis users buying more on secondary markets. Not because of rewards — but because they believed in it.
True Virality Isn’t Loud — It’s Sticky
Kaito now penalizes empty posts. No insight? Zero traction. Finally! The algorithm’s catching up to reality.
So ask yourself: Are you amplifying truth… or just noise?

Why Tech Giants Like Ant and JD Are Racing to Dominate the Stablecoin Market
Stablecoin Showdown: Ant vs JD
When your bank app starts doing crypto math better than your ex’s emotional intelligence… you know we’ve entered phase two of chaos.
Ant’s Jovay chain hits 100k TPS? That’s not speed—that’s quantum embarrassment for SWIFT. Meanwhile, JD’s tokenized deposits could split $50M into 5,000 micro-payments. Excel? Still crying in the corner.
And let’s talk about that licensing move—49 days before the law drops? Textbook regulatory chess. I’d call it genius… but I’m still recovering from my last 3x liquidation.
So who wins? The one who treats stablecoins like infrastructure—not just another meme coin to pump.
You in? Comment ‘$USD’ if you’d rather pay fees or get rich quick.
