“responsible for the kelpdao hack”LayerZero is responsible for the KelpDAO hack that led to almost $300m being stolen. This hack is almost solely on them. The only fault with Kelpdao on this one is that they believed the layerzero OFT marketing that claimed OFT was absolutely safe, & used 1/1 DVN instead of more, but layerzero allowed 1/1 DVN even though they advise against it. I am sick & tired of stupid cocky teams blaming DPRK for their hacks, your stupid ass made a tech & sold it to the public, you are responsible for the security of funds, if DPRK over & over again keeps getting in, then you should all quit because that simply shows that we have ascribed more powers to you than you actually know what to do with. The drift hack was DPRK. This hack too is DPRK; teams blame DPRK when they realize how dumb the hack looks on them, then paint it as sophisticated, it's not sophisticated if it involves social engineering, or deceiving/dumbing down your tech to make it believe something exists when it actually doesn't exist.

“scammer”this is a trenches scammer. user posts ca after buying, dumps on whomever buys after 5minutes deletes the ca & act like nothing ever happened.

“scammer”This account appears to be using the same art and presale approach as a previous NFT gaming project that rug-pulled after conducting a presale. Previous project name: @ChiknEggs [$EGG] Website status: Deactivated Eggzbase appears to be following a very similar pattern: artificially boosting tweet engagement, using social tasks for exposure, running a presale, then deleting tweets and deactivating the account. 100% scam

“great dev”thought i had seen it all until this dude came along and built a indomitable reputation system as a product, many would say reputation doesn't matter as CT forgets easily, they forget this is on-chain, serpin built a great tool here, he is a great guy.

“not much”Fluent has come on my radar via the sale they are hosting. Before now, I had no idea what exactly their tech is, or what it solves. It's great that it's reputation-based and other things, but there is just something about the sale, I can't seem to place it. I would advise that everyone DYOR before entering the sale. The KOL shills are just way too much on this one with a lot of glazing This review will be revisited as I gather more information

“rug”name: Squiggle-Wuiggle @Squiggle This collection just rug-pulled on Robinhood after minting at 3$ per NFT, with 7500 nfts up for grabs. The dev created a token after minting out. The token went as high as 500k mcap; dev pulled out liquidity afterwards and sold the supply he set aside for the airdrop.

“scammer”Sato Boys NFT is the name of the collection that would probably be deleted soon after the grift, the crimes here: changed mint price while mint is going on, increased supply, they usually come back to try & grift again, stay off. os link:https://opensea.io/collection/satoboys/overview

“A scammy Ponzi”from all indications this is a scammy ponzi & not the kind anyone but the creator make money from, envelope is delivering itself as a place to trade arc tokens before the arc chain goes live( decentralization might allow for this) the only problem is: it wasn't built well at all, you bridge in usdc from base or any chain to their website & trade memes on a supposed chain(except there is no supposed chain) you are simply trading these tokens that aren't real on their platform alone, also each transaction cost you 10%, launching a token cost you 75$ in total, i don blame the creator in this case, i blame the gullible people using it as the creators have made over 300k$ in fees, you also cant bridge out, so stay safe.

“Claims they have been hacked”when cascade rebranded from perennial labs, a project that equally rugged users funds, i made a review here notifying users about the name change & how it rebranded, few hours ago, cascade team announced on the discord that they've been hacked, cascade runs a vault, how you hack a vault is still a mystery, the funds were sucesfully moved, 1.3million dollars, cascade vault now shows -95%, users cant move their funds anymore as there is nothing to withdraw. their Discord announcement reads: "Earlier this afternoon, Cascade detected a security exploit affecting our CLS vault, resulting in a loss of approximately $1.3M in user funds. We immediately paused all trading and withdrawals while we investigate. We've engaged SEAL 911 and other third-party security teams and are actively working to secure the platform. We will provide any updates as soon as more details arise." Everyone who was paid to shill cascade deserves a slash, especially those who deny it

“mismanagement at its finest”i literally just woke up & the first thing in my head is: "what happened to berachain?" Berachain is honestly one of the biggest examples in this cycle of how you can have everything going for you, attention, love, narrative, memes, genuine community, and still find a way to fumble it. I’m not here to judge the tech. I’m sure the tech is solid. This review is about everything around the tech: how the interest, momentum, and community were handled. In 2024, it really felt like it was Berachain’s year. They had: NFTs with insane hype and real culture behind them A community that didn’t just feel like a cult, but like real, organic connections A narrative strong enough to easily push them toward a top 20 ecosystem if executed properly Back then, if you were around early, it felt like there was a 99.9% chance Berachain would crush it and maybe a 0.1% chance they’d mess it up. And somehow, here we are in 2026, living in that 0.1%. What went wrong? In one word: mismanagement. Mismanagement of interest Mismanagement of community Mismanagement of apps Mismanagement of the broader tech and ecosystem Mainnet is where the real work starts, not where it ends. That’s where you either compound all the goodwill you built, or you slowly bleed it out. Berachain chose the latter, whether intentionally or not. Instead of doubling down on shipping, compounding community trust, and nurturing builders, it felt like they started focusing more on praise than progress. When you surround yourself with people who only say “yes” and clap no matter what you do, you don’t get feedback, you get noise, The numbers don’t lie. Fast forward to now, and the data tells the story: Data from defilama as of writing this review TVL: Around $75m in DeFi on Berachain, and down ~16% in 24h Stablecoin market cap: About $86m, down ~5% over 7 days Daily DEX volume: Roughly $2m Chain fees (24h): About $57!!!which is basically nothing for a chain that once had this level of attention App activity is concentrated: Kodiak alone holds ~$75m TVL, while most of the rest is thinner than you’d expect for a “next big thing” chain For a chain that once completely dominated the conversation among pre-launch L1s and L2s, these numbers are underwhelming. There are chains from that same era that never had half the hype Berachain did and yet are now quietly doing multiples of this in TVL, fees, and user activity. From near-guaranteed success to cautionary tale What makes Berachain’s situation so wild is not that it failed, chains fail all the time. It’s that it had every advantage: Real community, not just mercenary capital A strong narrative and clear identity Cultural relevance through NFTs and memes And still, in less than a year post-mainnet, the momentum evaporated. It wasn’t a slow fade over five years; it was a sharp drop-off over months. That’s what mismanagement looks like at scale. Lessons for teams building the next Berachain If you’re building a chain or protocol right now, learn from this: Hype is not product-market fit. Pre-launch hype and NFT culture are not a substitute for sustained user value, strong dev tooling, and real economic activity. Mainnet is Day 1, not the finish line. The pre-launch narrative is just a trailer. Mainnet is the actual movie. If you don’t deliver there — with real apps, incentives designed for longevity, and responsive governance — the market moves on. Beware of yes-men. If everyone around you is only praising you, you’re already in danger. You need people who will tell you, “This isn’t working”, before the chart does. Community is an asset, not a given. Berachain had one of the most genuine, connected communities in the space. Losing that kind of energy isn’t just a miss — it’s a warning sign. Once you break trust or neglect your base, it’s incredibly hard to rebuild. Don’t confuse narrative momentum with execution. Narratives can put you in the spotlight, but only execution keeps you there. It feels like Berachain got stuck somewhere between being a story and being a functioning, thriving ecosystem. There is A small hope, though, for them. Despite all this, I’d still love to be wrong long-term. I’d love to archive this review one day as a reminder of the “before” the low point before a real turnaround. Maybe they clean house internally, refocus, bring in stronger operators, and rebuild the trust they’ve lost. But if I’m being honest and looking at the current stats and trajectory, it feels like if there’s a 0.1% chance they finally get it right… They’ve shown a tendency to drift toward that 0.1% in the wrong direction. Berachain will probably end up being a case study people point to — not about how to generate hype, but about how hype without management, focus, and execution will always collapse on itself.
