πŸš€ Chris Burniske Discusses Quality And Fake Venture Capital In Crypto

According to BlockBeats, on September 24, Placeholder partner Chris Burniske shared his views on venture capital (VC) in the crypto sector via social media. Burniske emphasized that there are many high-quality VCs in the crypto space who are less active on social platforms like X. These quality VCs enable entrepreneurs to innovate without incurring debt or requiring inherent wealth. If good decisions stem from background, capability, or experience, quality VCs often help entrepreneurs improve in at least one of these areas.

Burniske pointed out that quality VCs are often overshadowed by 'fake VCs' who aim to enter the private market and accelerate liquidity without providing any real support, focusing solely on maximizing their own profits. It is crucial not to confuse the two. Fake VCs are not respected by entrepreneurs and struggle to establish lasting institutions because the value they provide is negligible or even negative, a fact that spreads through word of mouth. However, the public on X often cannot distinguish between the two, especially when many fake VCs start as key opinion leaders (KOLs), using their audience to raise small funds and then engaging in what is perceived as 'VC behavior,' which Burniske categorizes as 'short-term, fake VC behavior.'

The common rhetoric of 'criticizing VCs' reveals the public's ignorance about quality VCs and their limitations, a narrative often driven by those most intent on misleading their audience.

πŸš€ Entangle Announces Major Adjustments To NGL Token Unlock Plan

According to Odaily, cross-chain interoperability project Entangle has announced significant changes to its NGL token unlock plan. The adjustments aim to ensure the project's long-term development and address scalability challenges in Web3. The new framework will be revealed in the coming weeks.

Under the revised plan, private investors have the option to unlock all remaining tokens early on October 1, but they must accept a 37.5% discount. Similarly, Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) can choose to unlock their tokens in full, with a 47.5% discount. The team’s token allocation remains unchanged, but 30% of the tokens have been burned. Additionally, the unlock period has been extended from the original six months to twelve months, with the total vesting period now extended to 30 months. The deducted tokens will be stored in a smart contract for marketing, grants, and project expenses.

πŸš€ Social Media's Growing Influence On Financial Markets

According to BlockBeats, on October 5, CryptoQuant founder Ki Young Ju shared his insights on social media, highlighting its increasing influence on financial markets since the advent of the internet. He pointed out that social media's impact has taken on a quasi-religious nature, citing examples such as Elon Musk's Tesla, Satoshi Nakamoto's Bitcoin, and various cryptocurrency communities.

Ju emphasized the critical role of 'prophets' in driving asset prices upward. These figures, who are perceived to have reached a state of enlightenment, extend their visions of the future, fostering blind faith among their followers. This faith leads to the formation of religious-like communities with shared beliefs. The stronger the faith within these communities, the more legitimate the asset is perceived to be, even if it does not generate profit or create social value. This phenomenon is remarkable.

Investors must now be aware of social media's impact on investment decisions. When evaluating a publicly traded company or a token project, it is essential to consider whether there is an influential 'prophet' on social media and the strength of their followers' beliefs.

Companies are racing to establish a presence on social media, attempting to form communities filled with blind faith. However, not everyone can become a prophet, and most fail to attract followers. In the crypto sector, if internal efforts to expand influence fail, companies may hire external Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) to create false beliefs. Only a few projects succeed in this endeavor.

The influence of social media on financial markets will continue to grow. As communities are composed of people, this quasi-religious aspect will deepen. Ju believes that understanding how religions operate will help in comprehending the future of financial markets.

πŸš€ AI Agents: Transforming Information Distribution and Market Dynamics

According to PANews, AI agents are revolutionizing the landscape of information distribution and market dynamics, offering significant application value beyond traditional methods. The AI-driven information dissemination and interaction mechanisms have proven more efficient than conventional key opinion leaders (KOLs), leading to increased fan growth, expanded application scenarios, and enhanced advertising value.

The approach of issuing assets through community co-creation has disrupted the traditional ICO model, reconstructing the liquidity sequence from build-and-exit to a new interest community involving capital, project teams, and community members. This shift highlights the model's value.

Large language models (LLMs) are expected to invigorate blockchain infrastructure, including TEEs, chain abstraction, DA, Oracle, interoperability, and zkVM components. This development aims to build a trustworthy on-chain and off-chain infrastructure environment, showcasing narrative value.

Projects like DeFAi, GameFai, and DePinFai, which integrate AI into existing frameworks, are redefining user experiences by transitioning from general applications to vertically segmented, customized experiences. This evolution underscores the commercial value of AI agents.

AI agents are leading a comprehensive systemic reconstruction, encompassing social media information distribution paradigms, community-driven tokenomics, and the integration of on-chain and off-chain infrastructures. This transformation is not merely a technological stack but a multi-dimensional approach to realizing true application value.

In an immature early market, value is diverse and complex. A narrow focus on single application value may reveal limitations over time.

πŸš€ CZ: YZiLabs May Invest in A Project Developing A Good MVP Using BNB/BSC as The Primary Payment Option

Binance founder and former CEO CZ shared his vision for KOLs tokenizing their time on Binance Square. CZ stated that although similar attempts have been made in recent years, none have gained traction yet. He believes that reach, rather than time, holds true value. While platforms like LinkedIn and X (Twitter) offer similar functionalities, their low barriers lead to excessive spam, making them inefficient.In the model CZ described, KOLs link their X or LinkedIn accounts to the platform, verifying their identity. He then sets a price for people to message him, say, 1 or 0.1 BNB. Anyone can message him/her by paying that amount first. If the KOL does not respond within 5 days, 50% of the paid amount is returned to the requester. There is still a cost to the requester, which deters spamming and encourages them to write the message effectively. The KOLs are incentivized to respond. They get paid 50% more.CZ further stated that he would use a platform like this and donate the crypto he receives to charity. This helps filter out only serious people who want to reach him. He may move the conversation off the platform when the other party has something serious to offer, return the payment, or even give a bounty (e.g., for security tips). He will then be able to open up his DM to everyone and adjust the price over time based on how unpopular he is.Additionally, CZ revealed that YZiLabs may invest in a project that develops a good MVP using BNB/BSC as the primary payment option. It should take a few days to a week of coding and a security review. He will be the first user, provided the platform is secure enough.
