📈DeFi Yields: Where Are We Headed?
Here’s why I’ve been thinking about this. A few weeks ago, Uniswap launched an incentive program on Unichain. In just the first two weeks, they distributed 5 million UNI across 12 liquidity pools.
But what are we seeing? Instead of organic liquidity — technical abuse: price manipulation and range gaming. Regular users are left with scraps, and yields drop fast.
This isn’t the playful DeFi of free airdrops anymore, but it’s not a mature, sustainable market yet either. We’re in a transition phase: yields still exist, but you’ll need to use your brain to catch them.
Organic swap fees are too low to attract liquidity without incentives. That’s why the role of communities and builders is growing — those who create software, write strategies, and team up for collective farming.
In the future, we’ll see institutional DeFi: transparent, regulated, low-risk, with similar returns. But we’re not there yet. For now, to earn — you need to outsmart the rest 0 reply

To understand the historical significance of the moment we lived through on April 2, 2025.
There have been three instances in U.S. history where large, massive tariffs were imposed:
1) The Tariff Crisis of 1820-1830.
On May 19, 1828, tariffs were imposed to protect developing domestic industries from foreign competition. They increased the cost of imported goods by up to 50%, which caused discontent, especially in the southern states, which were heavily dependent on cheap imports.
2. Smoot-Hawley Act of 1930
This law raised tariffs on more than 20,000 imported goods to protect American farmers and businesses. However, it worsened the Great Depression by causing retaliation from other countries and a decline in international trade.
3. The 2025 Global Tariff War
On April 2, 2025, President Donald Trump announced sweeping new tariffs, including a 10% universal tariff on all imported goods and additional “reciprocal” tariffs on a number of countries, such as China, Taiwan, and the European Union. 0 reply

Minimum LXP for Linea drop
🛡Yesterday, one of the Linea team members wrote on discord that the project is considering introducing a minimum LXP threshold to receive a drop.
❌The Linea team believes that the activity of accounts that have less than 1500 LXP often looks suspicious, identifying them as sybils.
❕The final decision has not been made yet, but it is worth noting that many people in the discord support this idea.
LXP holders statistics:
🟣Total supply of LXP holders - 1,297,203 wallets
🟣Of them shaved - 516,960 wallets (39.85%)
🟣Now the total supply of LXP holders is 780K+ wallets
🟣Less than 1000 LXP on wallet - 142,989 wallets
🟣1000-1999 LXP on wallet - 321,438 wallets
🟣2000-2999 LXP on wallet - 132,552 wallets
🟣3000-3999 LXP on wallet - 68,865 wallets
🟣4000-5999 LXP on wallet - 110,561 wallets
🟣More than 5999 LXP on wallet - 20,797 wallets 0 reply
