How to turn around with small funds (2) Betting on ecological participation projects In this round of explosive growth in the Sui and Solana ecosystems, the top projects have all gone public, with market values all estimated to be over 10 times. @monad announced the issuance of tokens, and I also participated in the testnet but did not receive the airdrop, which is very frustrating, but I will continue to follow the project. I hope the TGE issues tokens with high control, and then provides other airdrop plans. Why do I still believe? Monad has a strong organizational discipline, with five to six rounds of interviews for employee onboarding. Unlike some L1s that are all about connections, raising a wave of money and leaving. The ecosystem has strong financing capabilities, and the main chain received ample support even before issuing tokens. Based on the narrative of financing background and products, I very subjectively recommend 5 projects for participation. 1. @KuruExchange (Rating 9.0) Team: Former Jump Trading HFT team, top technical strength Investment: Paradigm led $13.6M, Electric Capital co-invested Product: CLOB + AMM hybrid DEX, positioned as the liquidity hub of the Monad ecosystem Participation method: Testnet swap, LP provision, limit order trading 2. @aPriori (Rating 9.0) Team: MEV expert team, good at parallel execution optimization Investment: Pantera Capital multiple rounds of $30M investment Product: MEV-enhanced LST, aprMON token staking Participation method: Stake tMON to earn returns, participate in governance voting 3. @perpltrade (Rating 8.5) Team: Former Jump Trading high-frequency trading engineers Investment: Dragonfly $9.5M seed round Product: On-chain CLOB perpetual contracts, <1 second execution Participation method: Open long and short positions, provide liquidity 4. @ambient_finance (Rating 8.5) Team: Core developers of CrocSwap, experienced in DEX Investment: Backed by Jane Street, Naval Ravikant $6.5M Product: Single contract multi-form liquidity, extremely high gas efficiency Participation method: AMM market making, concentrated/full range liquidity provision 5. @Kintsu_xyz (Rating 7.5) Team: Senior DeFi infrastructure experts Investment: Castle Island Ventures and others $4M Product: Composable LST protocol, kMON token Participation method: Stake to earn returns, participate in DAO governance Participation strategy suggestions Priority interaction: Kuru > aPriori ≈ Perpl > Ambient > Kintsu Points accumulation: Follow each project's Points Program, activity level directly affects future airdrop opportunities.
