Binance Alpha grind never stops. Staying ahead of 10k+ users is crucial – can’t afford to fall behind. Noticed B² Network’s TGE making waves. Been with B² since early days, participated in every phase. Expected airdrop sell-off, but post-launch price held strong after initial dip. Last VC round valued at 200M,currentFDVonly140M – textbook low-start, high-momentum play. Their $300M TVL doesn’t lie. Underrated fact: B² is Babylon’s finality provider, quietly building in BTC ecosystem. Currently #1 in 24h volume on BSC, stable price action. With 0.01% pool fees, it’s a prime Alpha points target. Time to stack.

An ETF is, however, a much bigger deal because it will propel Solana into the world of traditional finance. And the chances of approval are good: Polymarket traders currently assign an 85% likelihood to a fall launch.
