Launchpad

Launchpads are decentralized platforms that facilitate early-stage fundraising for new Web3 projects through Initial DEX Offerings (IDOs). They provide investors with curated access to token sales while offering startups a community-driven capital injection. In 2026, launchpads have evolved into full-stack incubators, focusing on project quality and long-term sustainability. Follow this tag for the latest in token distribution models, tier-based participation, and the emergence of the next generation of "unicorn" protocols across various blockchain ecosystems.

Best Crypto To Invest Today: Reviewing the Crypto Market (This Presale Token Shot Up By 10x)

In the quiet hours of a volatile morning, whispers echoed across crypto chatrooms: TAPZI is heading toward $70 million. Somewhere in the depths of on-chain dashboards, heavy wallets shuffled on the 18th of October. Whales, those silent giants, were showing signs of nervousness with PEPE. And Solana—once the darling of modern blockchain architecture—took a sudden [...] The post Best Crypto To Invest Today: Reviewing the Crypto Market (This Presale Token Shot Up By 10x) appeared first on Blockonomi.

Jupiter wants to turn its token’s fate around

Jupiter wants to turn its token’s fate around

The post Jupiter wants to turn its token’s fate around appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. This is a segment from the Lightspeed newsletter. To read full editions, subscribe. Less than two years ago, Jupiter was “just” a DEX aggregator. Today, the company looks more like a DeFi conglomerate, or a “superapp.” On top of its flagship spot aggregator, the team runs perps, a memecoin launchpad, the JLP liquidity pool, lending, liquid staking, a portfolio tracker, a RFQ venue (JupiterZ), developer APIs, a token verification system (Verify) and the third-largest Solana validator. Source: Jupiter Too many? That’s not yet including the pipeline of emerging products: a jupUSD stablecoin, a prediction market in partnership with Kalshi, an ICO launchpad (Jupiter DTF), and its “omnichain” network JupNet. I’m probably still missing some. Jupiter’s suite of products is not inactive shelfware, either. Almost every product stands on its own. In its Q3 token holder update yesterday, the team pegs Q3 revenue at ~$45 million — ~$180 million annualized.  For a crypto business, that’s real money. Jupiter’s DEX aggregator dominates Solana DeFi But while Jupiter is firing on all cylinders, there’s an uncomfortable truth: The JUP token hasn’t kept up. JUP sits at around a $1.1 billion market cap today, down from $3 billion at its peak earlier this year, or a ~6.2x P/S. In my conversations with Solana traders and investors, everyone has a different explanation for why the token of Solana’s most prominent protocol hasn’t performed well this year. Some cited the token’s lack of utility. One liquid fund told me that JUP was perceived as too “safe” for speculative money; others pointed to the fact that JUP’s buybacks were too small relative to its FDV. The pseudonymous founder of Elemental, Moo, gave me a simpler take: “Jupiter had an ‘Avengers’ moment where all the hype the team built culminated in last year’s Catstanbul event. “Given the level…

MegaETH’s public sale looks MegaCHEAP

MegaETH’s public sale looks MegaCHEAP

The post MegaETH’s public sale looks MegaCHEAP appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. This is a segment from the 0xResearch newsletter. To read full editions, subscribe. GM, everyone. These markets are definitely not the easiest to trade. Bitcoin and major indices continue to bleed, and on the altcoin side, only 24% of the top 100 tokens have outperformed bitcoin in the last 90 days. However, there are still pockets of outperformance, and we believe MegaETH’s public sale will be one of them. Indices The market remained under pressure yesterday, with the S&P 500 (-0.62%), Nasdaq (-0.97%), and BTC (-0.63%) all closing lower. Despite the sharp selloff earlier this week, gold has continued to attract safe-haven flows, rising 0.78% as buyers stepped in amid a weaker dollar and growing expectations of rate cuts. Much of the recent sentiment has been shaped by developments in US-China trade talks, but Q3 earnings are adding to the caution. Both Netflix and Tesla reported softer-than-expected results, while Texas Instruments issued a weak revenue outlook for the fourth quarter, citing tariff-related headwinds. Crypto markets mirrored the broader pullback, with all sectors closing in the red. Still, a few pockets of resilience stood out. The AI sector, down -0.28%, and DeFi, down -0.27%, both outperformed BTC on the day. The AI index held up, mainly thanks to TAO, which accounts for 17.5% of the sector, supported by renewed optimism ahead of its halving event in two months. At the other end, Launchpads and Memes were the weakest sectors, down -4.6% and -3.4%, respectively, reflecting fading risk appetite across the market. All eyes now turn to tomorrow’s CPI print, which could set the tone for inflation expectations and determine how quickly rate cuts follow. Market Update Despite $615 million in ETF inflows Tuesday, overall flows have flipped negative again, underscoring the market’s uncertainty. Much of bitcoin’s recent weakness has been driven…
