@MacroMate8 @SolanaFndn bullish

big personal news: first off, Ethereum is dead second, i am now Special Situations at @SolanaFndn. my mandate is mega deals that will drive max value why solana? > the most engaged userbase in crypto with the highest take rate per volume (more than hype coinbase binance) > foundation is very lean and full of killers > other chains dont need me. ethereum is fucked (stuck in communism) and hype’s perp game is mature. solana is perfect for me to have fun and get shit done what will i do at solana: > bring 10B TVL to solana i’ve brokered 1-2B before and wanna up my game. if you are a large TVL provider, we have super scalable fixed yield products at 7-8% in a tradfi setup dm me > help grow RWA perps on solana hype done a great job with oil, gold, nasdaq perps and we will take it further if you are a serious crypto/tradfi market maker in rwa, we have the distribution and open to deals dm me what motivates me personally: first off, I am doing this for glory. I want to come in and be instrumental in growing trading activity and onchain tvl. second, I want to be relevant again. I miss pissing people off while being unavoidable. its fun thirdly, learn how to acquire trading distribution. almost no one in crypto knows how to do but thats where billion usd opportunities lie and they belong on solana.

@XSuikem @ValiantTrade these are great thanks for the suggestions

1/4 Hey team at @ValiantTrade! Great work the platform feels fast and clean. Feedback idea: When switching from Cross Margin to Isolated Margin, the system should keep the last selected option as default until the user manually changes it. Right now, every new trade requires switching again, and sometimes traders forget which increases risk if no stop loss is set. Suggested improvement: • Save last margin mode • Keep it as default for new trades • Only change manually This would improve safety and user control 🚀 #TRADE #DEFI #CRYPTO #SVM #FOGO @fogo

Most crypto rewards go to the biggest accounts..most volume wins. Valiant badges work differently, and if you're early, you're already ahead. Here's how they work 👇

@proofofstory @solana @fogo 👀

@solana made onchain CLOBs possible. It also showed why they break. @ValiantRusty breaks down why @fogo exists. Full episode below.

@proofofstory great chatting lets run it back when fogo is running up perps

Hyperliquid Changed the Game: Now It’s All About Users (Russ from Valiant)

so you're saying i just wasn't taking enough Creatine?

@WomanDefi @ValiantTrade why is everyone eating on shorts except me

MY CT Fam I am currently spending a significant time on @ValiantTrade perps just recently, and I am totally hooked. The execution has been quite smooth, trades just feels instant. Even as a nube, it really feels easier to navigate. The feeling when the trade hits right at @fogo Speed is just another level. Currently +61.4% on $ETH on @ValiantTrade! 🔥 valiant.trade/perps/ETH Still learning, still experimenting but really loving the ride so far.

@oldtora2077 @ValiantTrade your gain is my pain

Who is using AI trading tools actively? Would love to chat for 10-15 min.

@MahTrader13 @jumplifey9 @spank2023 @ValiantTrade it will be coming soon :)

@ValiantRusty @jumplifey9 @spank2023 @ValiantTrade rewards is good if long term bad if short term, i even wrote a small piece about rewards for the features it makes sense, however in my opinion it should be launched now so people see and try while improving it

Fire Starter badge is live. Think you can trade every day for a week? 7 consecutive days trading at least $10 on Valiant. Spot or Perps. Miss a day and you start over.

Rewarding users is one of the best tools crypto has to form community IMO. it creates owners instead of just users. I think sentiment is at all time low so people have a hard time getting excited, but we plan for the long term. As for mobile/ai correct, coming real soon. If your next question is going to be why not wait before launching, its because we wanted to start building the community as soon as we can, figure out what people want, how to improve in parallel. No use delaying when the trading features are already working

@ValiantRusty @jumplifey9 @spank2023 @ValiantTrade I don't want to be that guy, however you didn't state anything different rewards/Airdrop is a dead meta and once the rewards ends people will leave Mobile/AI if i am not mistaken it's not available yet

@MahTrader13 @jumplifey9 @spank2023 @ValiantTrade Yeah fair question that every builder has to answer to. we differentiate with mobile/ai trading features + additional rewards on top of HL. As more features get built the value will continue to be above and beyond fees we ask for.

@ValiantRusty @jumplifey9 @spank2023 @ValiantTrade so then why i go to you, meanwhile I can go directly to HL? like what is the selling point and the premium feature that you charge me a premium fee for it?

what does he know

@savipww W

3x on middle east oil starting from day 1 of the conflict i was actively trading oil on various perps biggest pnl came from longing from ~$95 to ~$112 on march 8-9, and on march 10 opening a long after the dump to $77 on trump's words about a quick end to the conflict - ~$77 to ~$95 on march 10 Valiant launched their perp markets and my 1st trades there turned out to be positive PnL after trading here for a week i realized i'm staying cause: - 20% fee rebate to my refs via the link (valiant.trade/trade?af=savip) + 10% fee rebate to me; - 3x fogo flames farming; - valiant badge farming; - hl farming. so with 1 app i'm farming 3 potential drops + getting cashback on fees and passing it on to my refs, and on top of that i'm closing in positive PnL trading ~200 available assets honestly, crypto trading doesn't appeal to me much right now, especially when the bigger gains are here. so i'll most likely keep following middle east news and a couple of digital assets i'm interested in atm and keep trading them

Dip wheelers bullposting fartcoin again, its officially a vibe shift

@oldtora2077 life short so i go long

@ValiantRusty When short
