Summer has started, and despite the overall on-chain activity goes down and grass-touching goes up, @risextrade continuously remains consistent with numbers staying healthy: ▪️TVL is at $7M, with some bumps up and down ▪️Volume $1.7B, slowly but surely reaches new highs ▪️Active daily traders numbers is staying around ~1500 since late May, and while it is only ~18%, of total users registered, it points at consistency - there are many who received code and never traded or did just a bit volume ▪️ Open Interest at ~$7M, matching the TVL nearly and indicating that almost all deposited capital is actively backing live positions On building side, devs continuously cooking, bringing new features and new pairs, polishing existing mechanisms. With OG trading competition over, do you think we are not far yet from the points season is approaching ( July maybe?) I took a little break from trading, but slowly coming back, swinging in couple trades here and there, following moods of the market and keeping it low key.

Here is what "1ms fast" looks like in real-time, just check how quick these transactions are clearing on @risextrade executing orderbook updates and instant settlements. Here is the actual tech making that instant speed happen under the @risechain hood: ▪️PEVM (Parallel EVM) - executing multiple trades at the exact same time across different computer cores, so nothing gets stuck waiting in a slow line ▪️CBP (Continuous Block Pipeline) - processing transactions continuously as they arrive, instead of waiting for full blocks to form ▪️Shreds - breaking large blocks into tiny "mini-blocks," giving users near-instant transaction confirmations ▪️Based Sequencing- outsourcing transaction ordering to Ethereum’s own validators, meaning you get crazy speed without sacrificing security or decentralization We might not see any of this when trading, but this is exactly the idea - so that UI for regular users is so smooth that it feels exactly like trading on a centralized exchange, but instead being fully on-chain.

Me trying to explain crypto, blockchains and DeFi to soccer friends

Finally another World Cup is here, I am quite excited for the upcoming games Been already participating in @MoveMatchxyz and I am glad that they have prepared the platform for participating for the biggest sport event worldwide⚽️ Locked my team players for 1st round of group stage, there are so many talented football players, so not even one bench would be enough to put them all in, but I made my choice, so let's see how it will turn out and whether there will be any surprises Are you following WC event? what would be your pick?

Recent highlights of @zinc_cash are just insane: ⛏️Broke into top3 protocols by revenue on @solana ⛏️Hit 837k encrypted computations using @arcium ⛏️Staking APY is quite juicy at 486% ⛏️10% mining fee used for buyback & burn (~40% supply burned already), keeping low the circulation float and healthy price ⛏️$ZINC is getting ready to reclaim ATH price, currently sitting at ~$20 with small MC I think this is not bad at all for being LIVE for less than 20 days, and still lots of potential ahead. What is your take on Zinc? Are you mining, are you buying, are you staking, or just observing?

First big milestone has been reached - 1M computations, and check this out below - most of it was achieved in last 30 days. @arcium bringing heat to Solana, and this is still just a warm-up ☂️

Made a quick video below on how to start and interact with @heliosdottrade, fastest AMM that is soon to be launched on @risechain Mainnet. Starting as easy, all that you need is: 1. Code to join the testnet(use STELLART1) or join directly here helios.trade/?ref=STELLART1 2. Connect wallet and your X 2. ETH on Rise testnet - faucet.risechain.com/ or use faucet directly in Helious Discord 3. Enter the platform and start trading (make swaps and add LP), leave any feedback on DS server It has been quite pleasant experience so far and Ofc there are things to add and polish, but team is working on delivering the updates and listening to community feedback. Latest event is the Helios Ascension trading competition started on June 5th and will last for event, with $$ prizes for top 10 traders, and exclusive Ascension role. Even if you don't land in top10, your earned points is still converting to Mainnet points depending on your final position. Still 5 more days to go, still time to climb up the ranks and you know how it goes - early bird eats the worm.

Bridge unlocked 🌉

This became easily my #1 tool for get the full level picture of everything happening on @risextrade. It is called Rise Screener and is basically Dune Analytics on steroids, specifically focusing on RiseX on-chain data. Everything in one clean dashboard: ▪️Volume stats (24h all-time) ▪️Open Interest ▪️Funding rates max lev ▪️Fees & Liquidations ▪️TVL & flows ▪️Top traders (volume, OI, PnL) ▪️Markets overview, gainers/losers, upcoming/existing markets you name it, and it's there. I also liked the latest summary feature, providing quick recap of main KPIs, refreshed daily (screen below). Big kudos @0x_snatch for building this absolute graal for analyzing on-chain data. This is a great addition to existing native tools on @risechain. Gonna dive into exploring it more, you can check it yourself here risescreener.com/. cheers, and never stop rising

Check this out, looking awesome - design and UI, all in place. @risextrade been definitely needing something like that. kudos to Snatch, delivering non-stop Can't wait to see that live. p.s did you notice what is upcoming?👀

Privacy realm on @solana has been exploding over past few weeks, with @Arcium leading the charge. The ecosystem is evolving at the high speed, having incredible stack of features and tools to offer to everyday web3 users: ☂️@UmbraPrivacy for doing private DeFi transactions directly from the wallet (app, extension, web - you choose it) ☂️ @craftsdev to participate in sealed-bid auctions with fair price discovery, investing in real-world companies ☂️ @stealf_finance for a true private neo-banking ☂️@benchdotmarkets for private opportunity markets, rewarding the insights on hidden gems a betting-style format ☂️@anon0mesh to send messages and funds to other people having zero connection or internet ☂️@zinc_cash for fun roulette type mining game, deploying $SOL and earning $ZINC while keeping your strategies completely hidden and there is so much MORE True on-chain privacy shining bright and this is just the beginning. Humanity supercomputer continues to run and deliver encrypted computation and bulletproof privacy in every house of digital universe.

It took less than 50 days for @risextrade to surpass this huge milestone, while still being in closed beta, invite-only phase. Congrats to the team for continuously improving the product and ensuring users have the best trading experience. Uptrend continues and more targets are on the horizon soon to be achieved. gRise

Reveal time has come, congrats to all new seekers, builders, ascendants and eternals, you know how see you updated ranks for Wave1 and 2☂️ Special thank you to @arcium CM @loosty for all time and effort in diligently reviewing submissions and always being there for community. Another milestone has been achieved, next stop is TGE, and guts tell me that it might be just around the corner. It feels good to be <encrypted>☂️

Long awaited leaderboard feature has been introduced to RiseX (@risextrade) earlier this week, opening opportunities to track where you stand against vs. other traders across main metrics such as PnL, ROI, Win Rate, and Volume, and more. Looking at leaderboard, we see that the total number of traders is 3093, accounting for total 924M in volume (yes , 1B soon!) and 6M of Open Interest - quite a high number for roughly a month in private Mainnet, having only code-invite system and not open yet for the broad public. With leaderboard enabled, team has announced Founding 25 Traders Competition, and here is what we know: Only 25 spots available granting OG role for real OGs. • Dates: May 29 (07:00 UTC) - June 12 (07:00 UTC) • No registration, if you are trading already, you participate automatically, if not -use the RiseX code and start competing ( DM me for the code) • Selection: •Top 10 by Volume •Top 10 by Open Interest (OI) •Top 5 by ROI The prizes are not revealed, but the announcements hints that getting OG can be very desirable, opening doors to exclusive perks and early access to what is to come. RiseX has also expanded markets, adding $NEAR(5x) and $DOGE(10x) perps pairs, giving some diversity to users and more to be added later. I am personally quite far from the top 25 and don't have much professional trading skills, so just gonna watch it from the side, doing my regular trades and putting in some volumes. Overall, RiseX is having quite a hot week, delivering exciting news and features, and from what it looks, it feels that official seasons starts soon, and the Points system is just around the corner.

Hope you didn't miss that - @rise_ecosystem had a recent powerful addition - @heliosdottrade building the fastest AMM on @risechain. Testnet went live a few days ago and the first wave is already moving fast, only limited spots left in Cohort 01. What you can currently do: ☀️Join Testnet using invite code helios.trade/?ref=STELLART1 ☀️ Apply for Vanguard Ambassador ( DM @heliosdottrade if you're interested) ☀️Start using the platform, doing swaps and adding liquidity, share your feedback on the discord I've been using it and the experience is very smooth, fast execution and pleasant UI. Still early, but team is really quick on fixing bugs, rolling out new features and getting ready for the Mainnet launch. The sun rises in phases☀️
