When 'blockchain' disappears
The only two words that signify technological maturity are: seamless.
You send hundreds of WeChat messages every day, but you never care about what protocol the server uses. You use facial recognition for payments, but you never care about the clearing logic in the background.
The current Web3 is still in the 'self-indulgent' stage, and everyone is still discussing Gas, L1, and L2. This kind of discussion itself is a manifestation of the industry's immaturity. The emergence of Plasma (@Plasma ) marks that we are entering the 'behind-the-scenes' era of blockchain.
Trend 1: Stablecoins will completely 'devour' payments.
Stablecoins (like USDT) are essentially more advanced dollars. They do not require bank branches, nor long clearing cycles; they can be liquid 24/7.

$XPL is not just a trading symbol; it is the 'fuel' and 'skeleton' that enables the efficient operation of the entire Plasma.
Plasma not only waives gas fees; its lifeblood is itself.
You already know the power of Plasma (@undefined ): 0 Gas transfers of USDT, sub-second confirmations, Bitcoin-backed security.
These did not fall from the sky. There is a core driving force behind them: $XPL tokens.
Many people only see 'free' but do not understand the cost of 'free'. Plasma's '0 Gas' does not come without costs; rather, the burden and distribution of costs have changed.
The three core functions of XPL.
Treat XPL as the processor, power, and operating system of the supercomputer Plasma.

New Alpha, a New Airdrop Experience Integrating Multiple Projects
On February 10, 2026, Binance Wallet officially announced the launch of Alpha Box, an innovative airdrop mechanism that integrates multiple projects into a single event. This initiative is based on Binance's popular Binance Alpha airdrop activity, aiming to provide users with more opportunities to participate in early projects and acquire tokens. The launch of Alpha Box marks Binance's further expansion of its airdrop model in the cryptocurrency ecosystem, helping users to more easily access emerging assets.
What is Alpha Box?
Alpha Box is a new airdrop model pioneered by Binance. Under this mechanism, multiple projects will pool their respective tokens into an event pool. Users can participate in the Alpha Box airdrop by redeeming Binance Alpha Points and randomly receive equivalent tokens from one of the featured projects. This not only brings an element of surprise for users but may also include projects that have previously debuted on Binance Alpha, giving users a chance to participate again in these early-stage projects.

70 million dollars for a domain name? The 'gamble' of Crypto.com founder is not that simple.
'We either strive for excellence or we face extinction. And this time, he chose to buy a ticket to the future.'
1. The exorbitant price behind the transaction
70 million dollars (approximately 507 million RMB).
Full cryptocurrency payment. A domain name: AI.com.
Kris Marszalek, the founder of Crypto.com, has once again shocked the market with this 'brutalist aesthetic.' If domain names are the 'real estate' of the internet era, then AI.com is like the plot of land at the very center of Manhattan. In the eyes of top players, this is not just a web address; it is the most intuitive traffic entrance in the world.

Stop being drained by middlemen: How Plasma is reshaping cross-border payments and the gig economy
Your client is in the US, and you are in China. He sends you a payment of 500 dollars.
If you use traditional bank wire transfers: fees of dozens of dollars, and it takes at least 3-5 days to arrive.
If you use PayPal: a fee of 4.4% + fixed costs, and withdrawing to a domestic bank requires another round of hassle.
Web3 promised 'decentralization', but what’s the reality? You receive money in USDT, but you still have to pay Gas fees for the transfer.
This is not true 'decentralization'; it's just a change of middlemen taking a cut.
Cross-border payments: a 'black hole' of efficiency and costs.
The global gig economy is booming, but cross-border payments remain stuck in the last century.

Don't drive an ambulance on the road during rush hour
Current public chains (Ethereum, Solana, etc.) all have a fatal flaw: they want to handle everything on the same road.
Imagine this: you're in a hurry to transfer some USDT to pay for lunch. But at the same second, thousands of bots are competing to mint the same NFT, while dozens of traders are frantically pushing up a meme coin.
Your $10 payment is squeezed into the same block as a DeFi loan worth millions.
The result? You have to pay several times the price for that cup of coffee to 'overtake', or awkwardly stand at the counter for a few minutes waiting for block confirmation.

Don't let Gas fees ruin Web3 payments
You have 100 USDT in your wallet. You want to transfer it.
As a result, the wallet tells you: 'Insufficient balance.'
You are not poor, you just don't have those few cents of ETH or SOL. To transfer this money, you first have to go to the exchange to buy Gas, withdraw, wait, and pray that the network doesn't get congested. This experience is not only awful but also absurd.
If Web3 payments are destined to become popular, this 'Gas anxiety' must die.
Why is payment now like a disaster?
The current public chains (whether Ethereum or Solana) have a fundamental logical error: forcing users to hold B assets to use A assets.

Web3 Payment 'Sinking': How WalletConnect Pay Reshapes Offline Cashback When You Scan a Code on the Street?
As of today in 2026, the definition of cryptocurrency is undergoing a fundamental shift. It is no longer merely the K-line fluctuating in exchanges, or the 'digital gold' stored in cold wallets. With the deep integration of WalletConnect Pay (powered by the Reown protocol) and global POS giant Ingenico, cryptocurrency payments have officially stepped out of the laboratory and into cafes in Paris, convenience stores in Singapore, and retail shops in London.
The core of this transformation lies not in 'being able to pay with currency,' but in its Cashback mechanism, which reconstructs the payment benefit distribution pattern that has been maintained for decades.

Binance's latest Option Booster task, many students are sharing the operation process of the mobile App, but there is actually a simpler and more successful method: directly using a browser + extension wallet to complete it, which can also bypass some regional restrictions!
The operation steps are super simple:
1. Open the browser (recommended Chrome), install MetaMask or another extension wallet
2. Change the VPN node to Japan (the node needs to be stable, Japan currently has the highest identification rate)
3. Directly visit the option official website
4. If regional restrictions still pop up, don't panic! Press F12 to open the developer tools → Application → Storage → Clear site data (or directly clear all cache and cookies)
5. Refresh the page, usually you can start the task normally
I have tested that it is much smoother than the mobile App, and the regional restrictions on mobile are stricter, so the browser + clearing cache method is basically unbeatable. Brothers and sisters who have succeeded are welcome to report safety in the comments section~ If you have questions, you can also ask me!

On Friday, I had a meal with my colleagues and chatted about the recent trends in gold and silver. This topic feels super hot right now! Everyone in the square is welcome to provide guidance.
The basic consensus about gold is: even if there is a short-term correction, it won't drop too much. Historical data shows that gold prices have a long-term upward trend, especially with the current global environment being so chaotic— the US dollar continues to weaken (due to pressure on the Federal Reserve, tariff wars, and geopolitical risks), and gold's value as the ultimate safe-haven asset has become stronger. Central banks are buying aggressively, ETFs are flowing in, and investors' trust in currency is declining; these structural factors are supporting gold prices to continue rising. Many people believe that seeing $6000+ in 2026 or even higher is not a dream, and corrections are just opportunities for newcomers to get onboard.
However, regarding silver, everyone seems to agree: there will definitely be a correction, and it might be quite severe! Silver has been rising too fast (with even more exaggerated increases than gold), driven by industrial demand and speculative funds, but once the US dollar rebounds, profit-taking occurs, or industrial demand does not keep up in the short term, silver prices can easily see significant corrections. The gold-silver ratio has now shrunk to around 50-60 (historical highs often above 100), and many people feel there are signs of a “bubble” in silver prices, which are likely to give back some gains after a short-term overheating. After the correction, it might actually be a better entry point, because looking at the long term, the supply-demand gap still exists, and silver has much greater elasticity than gold.
What do you think? Should we continue to all-in on gold for safety, or wait for silver to correct before buying the dip? Or should we allocate both gold and silver to diversify risk? Recently, discussions like this on Binance Square have been frequent, and it feels like everyone is looking for the next breakout point～

Suddenly received two messages from Binance's little secretary: one is a square revenue of 0.044 USDT, and the other is a square revenue of 0.025 USDT! Wow, this should be the creator rewards from Binance Square, right? It's the first time receiving such a little surprise, and I feel quite happy, but also a bit confused 😂

Please teach me how to operate smartly in the case of insufficient BNB at Alpha TGE. Looking back at my operations yesterday, I feel a chill down my back, having escaped a disaster.
At that time, there were only 3000 USDT, and I did not have $BNB . If I had borrowed $BNB using $USDT (for example, through Aave/Venus lending), based on the lending rate, it would have been about 2.4 BNB. This way, losing 15 points of Alpha score is too much of a loss. I directly bought 3 BNB at a price of 905, and immediately sold 900 after TGE ended. On the surface, it seems I lost 15 USDT, and my mentality is a bit broken.
Now looking back, BNB has already dropped to around 845 (the current price fluctuates around 845-850). If I had endured not buying or selling at that time, just these 3 BNB would have resulted in a loss of over 180 USDT now! I feel a chill down my back, and I regret it deeply.
