I have uncovered a massive entity that cornered most of the River Supply using bitget and managed to make a profit of more than $300 MILLION
These are 2418 addresses and the explanation on how they operated:-
This is the flow used:
A wallet that orchestrated the entire setup was initially funded from OKX with 8 BNB.
From there they used a distribution contract (Multicall3) to distribute the BNB to 362 recipients addresses, this conveniently hides the incoming TXs on most explorers.

After all 362 recipients got their BNB distributed, they used a 9 HOP chain for each for a total of 2418 Addresses
You can start checking here for the begining of the chain:
0x365b689f33f6Fe3E4aEf5057061A006A09099A54

Additionally there were 2 massive $RIVER withdraw periods on 7 total wallets from Bitget, that ended up in the final hop of the originally funded BNB addresses
On Dec 5, when $RIVER was around $4, withdraws totalling 2 Million River tokens, on 5 different wallets.

On Dec 29 on 2 different wallets (funded by the original BNB distribution chain), a total of 1 Million tokens were withdrawn, 80% of these tokens are still held on those wallets.

In total there were $22M $RIVER withdraws from Bitget at avg $4.12
And with prices at ATH yesterday (the time I made this report) this totalled $350 MILLION, for a 15.3X gain
Almost half the supply was cornered.

The River token has done a 30x since the supply was cornered, starting its move after the 2nd withdraw period .
It has been through a constant period of very negative funding rate, and naturally has been fueled by hundreds of millions in short liquidations.

The pattern is clear, supply is cornered and withdrawn from bitget and ends deposited to bitget in the end in almost all cases.
This exchange is facilitating or complicit with this (and there have been countless other token examples with this exchange)

Plasma’s $XPL token gives me the same kind of “quiet infrastructure” feeling that only a few crypto projects manage to pull off. It’s not loud, it’s not trying to be everything at once, and it’s definitely not chasing meme cycles. Instead, Plasma is narrowly focused on one problem that actually matters at scale: how stablecoins move around the world. From the start, Plasma has been unapologetic about what it wants to be a blockchain designed specifically for everyday money transfers, with USDT at the center of the experience.
That focus shows up immediately in how the network works. Plasma isn’t asking users to learn crypto mechanics just to send digital dollars. The stated goal is simple: make stablecoin payments feel as natural as sending a WhatsApp message. No friction, no hidden complexity, no “wait, you need gas first.” In a space where onboarding is still painfully broken, that philosophy alone makes Plasma stand out.
The headline feature is zero-fee USDT transfers. For basic payments, Plasma uses a protocol-level paymaster that sponsors gas fees on behalf of users. That means someone can receive USDT and send it again without ever touching XPL or any other token. This might sound like a small UX tweak, but it removes one of the biggest blockers in crypto adoption. Anyone who has tried onboarding a non-crypto-native knows how fast the conversation dies when you explain gas fees. Plasma simply deletes that problem.
For more advanced actions, like interacting with smart contracts or DeFi protocols, the system still keeps things simple. Fees can be paid directly in USDT, BTC, or other supported assets. Under the hood, those fees are converted into XPL automatically. From the user’s perspective, nothing changes they use the asset they already hold. From the network’s perspective, XPL still remains the core settlement and incentive layer.
That’s where XPL quietly proves its importance. While users may not need it for simple transfers, validators do. XPL is staked to secure the network through PlasmaBFT, with validators earning rewards for processing transactions and maintaining consensus. Whenever fees are paid in non-XPL assets, the protocol buys XPL on the market to pay validators and burns the base fee, creating a dynamic similar to Ethereum’s fee model. On one side, there’s controlled inflation to incentivize security. On the other, increased usage leads to more XPL being burned. Over time, that balance can shift depending on network activity.
Governance also flows through XPL. Decisions around inflation parameters, paymaster rules, supported stablecoins, and future upgrades are designed to be driven by token holders. That ties long-term decision-making to participants who actually have economic skin in the game, rather than short-term speculators.
The broader vision is where Plasma really starts to feel ambitious. Mainnet beta launched with significant stablecoin liquidity and integrations across multiple DeFi protocols. Beyond that, the roadmap extends into real-world financial use cases like remittances, merchant payments, payroll, and cross-border transfers. Plasma One, a planned neobank product with a debit card and yield on idle balances, hints at how far the team is thinking beyond crypto-native users.
If stablecoins continue on their current trajectory toward becoming a trillion-dollar asset class, the infrastructure moving them will matter more than the narratives around it. Plasma isn’t trying to reinvent finance in one leap. It’s building a highway for digital dollars to move efficiently, cheaply, and globally. In that context, XPL feels less like a speculative token and more like the coordination layer underneath a growing payments network. Sometimes the most valuable systems aren’t the loudest they’re the ones everything quietly starts to rely on.

$DUSK has been on my watchlist for a while, but 2026 is the first year it finally feels real instead of theoretical. With mainnet live and DuskEVM rolling out, you can clearly see what the team has been building toward all along: a blockchain where serious capital can move privately without stepping outside regulatory lines. That alone puts Dusk Network in a very different category from most Layer 1s fighting for attention today.
What makes Dusk stand out is how it approaches privacy. Most projects pick a side. They either go all-in on transparency and ignore confidentiality, or they hide everything and hope regulators look the other way. Dusk quietly refuses that trade-off. Transactions can stay confidential through zero-knowledge proofs, but the system still allows selective disclosure when it’s required. That means auditors, regulators, or counterparties can verify what they need to verify without exposing every balance, trade, or strategy to the entire internet. For institutions, that’s not a “nice to have” feature it’s the bare minimum needed to even consider using DeFi infrastructure.
This is especially relevant once you think about who Dusk is really building for. Banks, brokers, asset managers, and corporate treasuries can’t operate on fully transparent chains where competitors can track every move in real time. At the same time, they also can’t touch privacy coins that function like sealed black boxes. Dusk sits in that narrow but powerful middle ground, offering confidentiality by default while staying verifiable and compliant by design. It feels less like a crypto experiment and more like financial infrastructure that happens to be on-chain.
The DUSK token itself plays a central role in making all of this work. It isn’t just something you hold and hope appreciates. DUSK is used for gas, staking, governance, and paying for network services like compliant token issuance. Validators and stakers secure the network and earn rewards in DUSK, which aligns incentives toward long-term participation. On top of that, a portion of transaction fees is burned, meaning sustained on-chain activity can gradually reduce supply pressure over time. With a large percentage of tokens already staked, governance decisions are mostly driven by people who are clearly committed to the ecosystem rather than short-term traders.
Where things get really interesting is the real-world asset angle. Dusk isn’t just talking about tokenized bonds, equities, or funds it’s actively building infrastructure designed to support them under European regulatory frameworks like MiCA and the DLT Pilot Regime. Platforms being developed on top of Dusk aim to bring real securities on-chain with confidential settlement, instant finality, and regulatory clarity. Every issuance, dividend payment, and secondary trade generates activity that flows through the network and relies on DUSK as gas and staking collateral. If tokenized RWAs scale the way many expect, that demand could compound quickly.
Zooming out, Dusk doesn’t have the loudest marketing or the flashiest narrative. You won’t see it dominating meme cycles or trending every week on social media. But that might actually be its advantage. It feels like one of those projects quietly laying pipes while everyone else argues about paint colors. If regulated DeFi becomes normal rather than experimental, and if institutions truly move on-chain in a meaningful way, DUSK feels positioned as infrastructure they could realistically use. Sometimes the most important systems are the ones you don’t notice until everything depends on them.
