Who is faster, Flash or Superman? 🦸♂️
We often asked ourselves: which WebSocket is better to use in development? It's logical that the faster one. So, if you're writing something where you use WebSockets, this little piece of software will make your life a bit easier.
What does the software do?
It checks the response speed from RPC in milliseconds and determines which of the provided options is faster.
You can download the software here - https://github.com/Aero25x/rpc-speed-test
In the README, you'll find full instructions on how to use it. Enjoy 🥰

Sleep 27.08 - to panic or rejoice?
Tonight, this wallet (said to be Justin Sun's) aggressively went long on XPL, sweeping all the order books and liquidating all positions. Then, it started closing the long position and took $16 million. As a result, XPL pumped to $1.8.
I’ve been reading through the chats: some hedged, some farmed funding, but in the end, everyone got rekt. Well, a couple of people made something on the short side. Condolences to those affected 😢

Is Linea coming out to play?
A couple of hours ago, Linea distributed LXP-L for providing liquidity. A little later, they distributed the LAM token, sending it to a total of 420k wallets. Now everyone is guessing: is this a mark of eligibility or something else?
Also, in one of the project's tweets, this appeared - https://x.com/LineaAssoc/status/1961356743570555043
In general, they’re stirring things up! I don’t want to speculate on what’s coming—just waiting for the checker and the drop, and I advise you to do the same!

Arbitrage. Burn After Reading. Part 1
Lately, I've noticed that not only seasoned professionals but also newcomers who buy parsers and don’t know what to do are ending up here. And there’s nothing shameful in trying something new. That’s precisely why we decided to create a guide, or a tutorial article—call it whatever you want. I won’t promise that you’ll become a guru in this field after reading it, but you’ll definitely start to understand something.
Well, as Yuri Gagarin said—let’s go!
What is arbitrage?
As a friend of mine told me when I started: arbitrage is buying low and selling high. And, in essence, that’s exactly what it is, but there are many nuances. Personally, I divide arbitrage into several types: classic arbitrage, hedging arbitrage, and ludka.
Classic Arbitrage
Here, I’m referring to the kind of arbitrage that today’s futures kids have never even sniffed. The key is to understand the essence: as I wrote above, “buy low, sell high.” Your task is to quickly buy a token where its price has been dumped or underpriced and send it to a place where the price has remained the same or is simply higher, then sell it. Or, buy it where the price hasn’t been pumped yet and wait for it to equalize or send it to where the token is more expensive. Arbitrage can be from DEX to DEX, from DEX to CEX, or in absolutely any direction—it doesn’t matter 🤫. The only thing that matters is selling where it’s more expensive.
Okay, got that. Now, the nuances.
A token can exist in different networks, and the prices of tokens in these networks can also differ (slightly). However, in one of them, a dump/pump might occur, and now your task is to somehow transfer the token to the network where the price is higher. Bridges come to the rescue here. A bridge is a dApp that allows you to send a token from one network to another.
Example of tasty arbitrage via a bridge:
There’s Project X, which has its own token (TokenX) and its native network (ChainX). This token is also available in other networks, such as ARB, POLYGON, OP, and there’s a bridge through which you can bridge it to their native network. And, of course, the token is traded on exchanges, but deposits are ONLY made through their native network. Suddenly, a dump of the token occurs in one of the EVM networks.
What to do?
You buy the token during the dump, bridge it to the native network (the project’s network) using the bridge, and then send the token to the exchange, where, as I mentioned, deposits are ONLY made in this network, and there you sell it accordingly.
This example comes from my arbitrage experience, which fed me for a year, but I won’t reveal which project or token it was—just in case there’s movement there again 😁
Also, using bridges, you can perform arbitrage simply between networks. At one point, arbitrage via Wormhole (a bridge from EVM to SOL and back) fed me very nicely.
The most important thing to understand is that there’s no specific path. Arbitrage can happen in any direction, on any platforms, and in any forms, which I’ll talk about in the next post.

Time to get back to work
We were on vacation all of September, now we're returning to this world of crypto scams.
❓ What we've been up to in the past few half-dead weeks
- We invested in Lombard and Falcon on Buidlpad, the first gave x2 per account, the second gave x10+ or an easy $1k per account, too bad we didn’t abuse it.
- Now we’ve invested in YieldBasis on Legion, and the devs, those assholes, decided to change the TGE date from October to TBD 🤡, waiting to see what they’ll pull next. By the way, there are still 3 hours left to invest, so if you want to jump in - go ahead.
- Also did a lot of small arbitrage and other minor stuff.
It’s turning into a sale meta, so we’re waiting for new activities. What about you guys, feeling the bull?

Today is a day off for the internet
AWS (Amazon Web Services) experienced a widespread outage, causing malfunctions in numerous services: Zoom, Steam, Docker, and others. This issue also affected the crypto world—Coinbase and many other exchanges experienced disruptions.
Such situations once again prove how dependent we are on monopolistic companies and what happens when something goes wrong with them. Recall the situation with Microsoft about a year ago, when one employee caused many banking systems and more to go down.
Now everything seems to be fixed, at least I’m not observing any more outages in the applications I use.

Cryptocards - Not a Myth, but a Reality
A couple of months ago, I found myself in need of getting a cryptocard, and I was faced with the question, "Which cryptocard can I get?" The main criteria I focused on were: no KYC/the possibility to buy it, low deposit fees, the ability to pay for anything/anywhere, and cash withdrawals (just in case). Right away, I’ll say that I didn’t consider exchange cards and looked for other alternatives. I ended up compiling my top 3 cards, two of which I personally use (I haven’t gotten to the third one yet, but based on the denoscription, it’s great), and decided to share this with you, as I consider it useful info.
🟢Solayer Emerald Card - the first card I started using. It became the first because it was given for free to participants of the Solayer sale (which I am a part of). It’s a convenient card with a 1% deposit fee, supports Apple/Google Pay, and they even have their own Telegram bot that sends notifications about withdrawals/deposits, etc. The only downside is that you can’t withdraw cash. Mandatory KYC, which can easily be arranged through Uzbek brothers—I bought it here: ProKyc. They also have a referral system where the percentage of fees decreases based on the number of referrals. AND they have their own travel program where you can book accommodations cheaper than on Booking.
Summary:
- 1% fees.
- Apple/Google Pay support.
- Mandatory KYC.
- No cash withdrawals.
Price:
- Free for sale participants.
- For regular folks, $75/lifetime of the card (issued for 4 years), or $39/year.
🟢SolCard - a great alternative to Solayer, with two card options: without KYC and with KYC. Personally, I immediately opted for the one with KYC. With this card, you can not only deposit your stables but also withdraw them without any issues. They also have a referral system where you can get some perks.
First option: no need to go through KYC, but the deposit fee is 5%, with a limit of up to $10k/month, and it will only be a virtual card (without Apple/Google Pay). Good for paying for services/subnoscriptions, especially relevant for those in Russia who want to pay for foreign subnoscriptions.
Second option: KYC is required (can also be bought here - ProKyc), 0% deposit fee, limit up to $100k/month, Apple/Google Pay support, and priority customer service (no queues).
Summary:
- 0-5% fees.
- Apple/Google Pay support.
- Option to open a card without KYC.
- No cash withdrawals (haven’t checked, and no info available).
Price:
- $10 when opening the card (applies to both options).
🟢Tria - offers 3 card options, with interesting conditions, including cashback and cash withdrawals. I won’t go into detail about them since I haven’t used them yet, but if you’re interested—welcome to their website.
If you have experience using other cards, please share it with everyone; it might be useful to someone!

3 hours until the Monad claim 💜
I wrote about the claim news here and suggested to join the claim queue here. Not sure what to expect, as the wallets that got the airdrop haven't even interacted with Monad itself 😄, and there's no news about the listing, which makes it even more amusing. No expectations, just don't miss the claim.
Reminder, claim here - https://claim.monad.xyz/

Monad TGE 24.11
We were recently opening their boxes and looting tokens. If you hedged the drop like I did, then yesterday your shorts might've gotten rekt—or actually did—mine are still holding up okay for now.
A couple of minutes ago, they announced the exact date for the mainnet launch and TGE: November 26.
I hope there won't be any swings like yesterday during this time.

Coders here? 👨💻
I wanted to write a useful post and decided to tell you about the AI aggregator I use in my dev work and beyond.
Openrouter is a handy aggregator with tons of models and the option to top up your balance with crypto. They also have free models you can try out before depositing any money. Plus, there's clear documentation, which is a big plus. Specifically, we use it in IDEs for translating posts and for all sorts of other automations.
In short, it's super convenient—give it a go! 🤝

I think it's worth sharing with you the info that OpenRouter is currently a freebie — https://openrouter.ai/x-ai/grok-4.1-fast — new model from xAI, free until December 3rd.
We've already played around with this model a bit (put it through its paces), and there's no real wow factor compared to Grok 4, but thanks for the perk.
By the way, there are already tons of memes about how it glorifies Elon in every way possible 😂

MON - PON
For those who haven't heard, the mainnet launch is scheduled for today (17:00 MSK) and trading for the MON token starts at (18:00 MSK).
Trading will be on: ByBit, Bitget, KuCoin, MEXC, Gate, Coinbase. Also on Upbit and Bithumb, but that didn't really help the price 🤕
If you got the airdrop, the tokens should hit your wallet right after the mainnet launch. If you participated in the ICO on Coinbase, tokens are already starting to arrive on your exchange balance.
Anyway, waiting for trading and let's stake this trash.
