VELO went 1000% in three months, so yeah, some coins can still go boom. Do you think we'll have some big coin soon?
Mentions
$VARA and $VELO (velodrome). Small amount of each.
Yea I was riding the Ondo wave but it’s in top 100 now, hoping to see one big leg up for VELO then I’m out and pretty much done with this bull market. Starting to make me nervous, checking charts too often again lol
I've been buying VELO, just to capture the AERO runoff
I hope u got my VELO message in time lol… it looks like it’s connected to AERO looking in the description of AERO
Aerodrome Finance is exactly what you just described. LITERALLY. Although it just passed you by a few hours ago, there’s a few other ones. Look them up and see for yourself. $VELO Velodrome Finance $LCX $GHST
Another watch is VELO it’s a subgroup of AERO
I saw there’s another coin with a similar logo VELO, is that apart of AERO in anyway? Noticed it was pumping along with AERO yesterday
they have the same warning with any new coin. TIA showed it (probably still does). AERO and VELO i believe as well. There's been a bunch over the last year or two. I wouldn't worry about it...just recognize newer projects tend to have less vetting and therefore has a little added risk. remember luna and ftx played in the crypto landscape for years without any issues before things crumbled...the longer you've been around, the more tested the project (though there are no projects, even btc, without some risk, as is with all investments).
Can consider VELO too! They are closely tied by aero if more for OP whereas AERO is more for base.
AERO or VELO, slipstream coming out
AERO (Aerodrome on Base) & VELO (Velodrome on Optimism) same and/or overlapping teams. Think in terms of Optimism’s OP stack & Superchain & how Coinbase with Base plays apart of that. There’s a purposeful reason they are being listed on CB & it has nothing to do with influenced memes and/or market cap.
I’m so confused VELO there’s Velodrome and Velo Finance and both are shilled a lot. Which is the one that has a better outlook?
VELO labs. The one that deals with finance.
Got my eyes on VELO since it's a microcap with a lot of upside. It should be noted, I don't care about technology, just making money during the next bull run.
Really interesting perspective, we need more quality posts like this. I’m banking heavily on ARB and the ARB ecosystem, including SYN, magic, SPA, VELO as the projects have yet to see any substantial pump. I also agree that these ghost chains (excluding Solana) have been massively manipulated in price and are overvalued compared to a lot of projects in the industry. It’s only a matter of time before Layers 2s including ARB, METIS, MATIC etc. begin to pump again
Is this where we come to shill stuff? Well alright! VELO. From a pure technical analysis stand point, it stands to go up like 8,000% to 13,000% on the next bull run. To be clear, I don't care about the coin. It simply has a lot of upside from it's previous peak. A lot of people are scooping it up particularly since it's like number +700 coin by market cap. Lots and lots of upside.
You left out [Financial NFTs](https://blockbuild.africa/what-are-financial-nfts/). For example, I have 1000 VELO but it is locked until 2026. I can sell the locked tokens together as part of a Financial NFT at a discount to the current market price, to compensate for the risk and lock period. These have become very common during the solidly fork craze and it has gone largely unnoticed to most crypto users.
This is my favourite current topic and I'm so glad you brought it up. Firstly, there's more TVL data on [this](https://l2beat.com/scaling/summary) website here. I believe it uses the total value of all tokens on the network, not just TVL. I would like to point to one of Vitalik's blog posts on this topic where he states that the optimistic rollups will be more popular than the zk rollups initially and that he envisions the zk rollups to outperform in the medium to long run. The reasoning is that it is very easy to deploy apps on optimistic rollups, you literally just copy paste dapps from mainnet and deploy. For zk rollups, changes to the code is required so this also requires extra audits and just a lot more work in general. Zk rollups are much quicker and cheaper than optimistic ones. Now that we know that zk rollups are superior, lets talk about the more popular ones. I'm surprised that you didn't mention Starknet or Linea. These are both zk rollups. Starknet is the least EVM compatible L2. They even use a brand new programming language. The big changes they made make it theoretically the quickest and cheapest L2. It is not proven yet and it will take a long time to build all the infrastructure but in the end, it should be vastly more performant than OP or ARB. Linea is made by Consensys. Consensys are the creators of Metemask, Infura and much more critical Ethereum infrastructure. They also have $700m funding which is the highest by far out of all the L2s. It is a zk rollup but less complicated than Starknet. It's very similar to zkSync in it's technology. ZkSync has been growing a lot recently, however much of the TVL is probably from airdrop farmers as you pointed out. Again, it's quicker and cheaper than OP and ARB but requires more work to get dapps deployed. They have $500m in funding. Binance just opened up ETH deposits and withdrawals to the chain today so that's a big step in the right direction. Currently, I like zkSync the most since it has the most traction so far and possibly starknet in the future will outperform but it will take longer for development to happen. I'm personally focusing on the ecosystems in these 3 L2s since I think they have the largest growth potential in crypto right now. I would like to ask why you say gameFi is popular on OP? Most of their volume comes from Kwenta(Syntetix), a perp dex, and VELO, ve(3,3) dex. I don't follow polygon's zkEVM much tbh. It could do well, I just feel it may be holding too much baggage from the OG Polygon chain, maybe that's a good thing too though. There's also Mantle which is an optimistic rollup from Bybit so maybe there's something worth looking into there. I just rather zk rollups in general though. Finally, honourable mention to Scroll, a zk rollup, who are still in testnet but plan on launching mainnet soon.
Still consistently see shills for TRIAS, VRA, VELO and MTV. All very cheap and yet holding on and not disappearing. Some notable announcements from time to time.
XRP xrpaynet XLM Solo and strong hold and VELO are my financial portfolio. My web 3, metaverse and memecoins are a different portfolio.
Have you guys heard of Velodrome finance VELO project?
Have you guys heard of Velodrome finance (VELO) project?
okay, so don't hold BAL, VELO etc? you seem to be smart enough that you have figured this out already. and that is the point of DEX aggregators like beefy. they were specifically invented to automatically dispose of these things. but that doesn't explain what is happening when the APY is still high when there is no bribe present. I feel like you don't actually want to sit down and look at what the APY is really composed of in different kinds of situations. you want to make snide remarks on a garbage forum instead of learning it.
VELO has pumped like a MF in the lead-up
It's common for newcomers to focus solely on price, but it's crucial to remember the importance of risk management and diversification. I've learned the value of a well-balanced portfolio that includes a mix of high-cap and low-cap tokens. For example, my portfolio currently includes ETH, BNB, EGLD, UTK, MONG, and VELO. By diversifying, I can mitigate risks and potentially increase profits in the long run
Although I've had some unlucky experiences with meme coins, I prefer to invest in low-cap coins that have the potential for easy 10x gains. Currently, I'm investing in some hidden gems like UTK, METIS, VELO, and OCEAN, which I believe have strong potential for growth and success.
Cosmos in general, Injective is getting a SolanaVM addition, Neutron and Stride are likely coming to ICS, there's kind of a main team/rival team mix of protocols building in the background. Arbitrum/Optimism have a ground swell for synthetics/governance taking off as ARB/OP, VELO/PLS, and SNX/GMX are starting to build into proper rivalries. There's also Zk rollups coming like Starknet, Scroll, and zk Sync. Near/Iota/Fantom/Tezos are smaller ones that are building in the dark as my other sorta alt L1 plays. Near is constantly innovating on sharding technology with some pretty cool projects like Octopus Network on it gradually building out Polkadot compatible appchains, Iota has their ShimmernetEVM releasing soon so their staking chains will gradually develop out soon, Fantom has some of the whackiest DeFi in the business with Oath, Solidly, and Dei being interesting if semi-failed (?), and Tezos had Marigold release recently as their optimistic rollup competitor.
dude who cares I've moved on to VELO.
I would just focus on XLM & VELO, easiest to stack, move around and cheapest fees.
VELO is doing well. What’s triggered that?
VELO is about to go for a run 🏃♂️
Fair, I was looking for newer articles on google. Still, for example when this article was written price of VELO was $1.45, now it's $0.01. But you got it at a very nice price and you're already in profit 66% so it's very good for you. Who knows this thing could 10x-50x, especially during next bullrun.
Never even heard of VELO. I see now that it's current price is 0.009, and it used to be almost $2. Hopefully you didn't get it during some of its highs?
VELO It’s since gone up 100%
VELO doing it’s thing again today 🤙🏼
>hart looks quite nice, VELO ATH: $1.80 Current price: $0.01 The chart looks catastrophic to me.
Anyone following VELO lately? I think CMC said it had the biggest gain in the last 7 days, chart looks quite nice, and they have a lot of products coming out in March
VELO doing it’s thing again 😍
tldr; VELO, the Velo Labs token on the Stellar network, has risen more than 1000% in the past three months. The price has been moving in a channel creating higher highs and higher lows, indicating a bullish trend. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has been oscillating between overbought and neutral levels over the past 3 months. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Whats VELO about? I love cycling so Im intrigued.. :D
Tldr: VELO gained 21% in the past 24 hours, SONNE token has jumped 82%, OPX has skyrocketed by 144%, PERP token has seen a 42%, OP token has jumped over 10%
Shout out to u/nicog67 for telling me about VELO a few days ago Thanks buddy
I refuse to buy into this VELO pump... but fuck me, I wish I'd heard about it like, even a week ago.
3 days ago VELO was #550 on cmc. Today it’s 450! Let’s see this thing break into the top100
Current long term holds: ETH and XLM Currently stacking: BTC and VELO Hbu?
Good news! The $VELO I bought and locked up is now worth almost 10x. The bad news… it’s locked for another 3+ years 😆
VELO looks pretty good though 🧐
ADOGE on Arbitrum https://www.arbidoge.net/ Arbitrum Dogecoin, first meme coin on Arbitrum $1.5m mcap VELO on Optimism https://app.velodrome.finance/ Essentially a low-slip Curve style AMM POOL - PoolTogether https://pooltogether.com/ Open source pooled savings account/lottery with twice weekly draws HTR - HATHOR Network https://hathor.network/ DAG blockchain bitcoin merge mining, implementing Nano smart contracts
Solidly fork on OP so it’s been pretty battle tested. They are bootstrapping liquidity right now so LPing and VELO locking is a great option right now while the market sorts itself out. https://app.velodrome.finance/liquidity
Conservative: VELO Yolo: MRI
Agree, just wanted to make sure we were talking about the same thing. I’ve got zero exposure to OP, VELO or any pools for this reason. However, liquidity begets liquidity.
I rotated into SNX and VELO. One is generating fees back to stakers (SNX) and the other is airdropping more OP back to people that lock up (VELO).
This is all on chain - Velodrome on the Optimism L2. For a 4 year lock up you basically get a dollar for dollar air drop of OP tokens as an early staker. You’re collecting swap fees the whole time your VELO tokens are locked up, as well. Basically hedging on if VELO winds up not performing, I get made whole from the airdrop. If it does, great. Curve is the most popular on the Ethereum L1 that created these kinds of staking mechanics.
For anyone that got the $OP air drop, you are eligible for the Velodrome (Solidly fork) one for their $VELO token.
Anyone else in VELO ? Any opinions please
ALGO ONE SOL VELO (moonshoot) You heard it here first kiddies
You think thats bad? About 2 months ago,, VELO increased its circulating supply from 40m to 340m (https://medium.com/veloprotocol/a-message-from-our-ceo-mikes-quarterly-update-9686dd656b53) And I shit you not, that's not even the real kicker; it has a total supply of 30B Tokens 🤣🤣🤣 So after a 8.5x increase in circulating supply, it still only has only 1.1% of its total supply as circulating at this moment. It's is a smallcap though which is probably why it didn't make any waves. It's also got some of the shittiest tokenomics of real world utility tokens I've yet witnessed, so there's also that.
VELO might be due for its quasi quarterly pump. It has had at least three $1+ pumps this year. Currently ~$0.23, been sitting dormant for a bit.
Why is VELO falling off a cliff? Lol
XLM and it’s VELO counterpart… VELO is what you would be wanting to accumulate right now.
tldr; Velo Labs has partnered with TEMPO Payments and Bitazza to open a remittance corridor between the 27 European Union (EU) nations with Thailand. The corridor will connect millions between the EU and Thailand. It will do so by connecting over 600 million customers. Velo Labs' native token VELO will be able to transact and settle in seconds while on the Stellar blockchain. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Yep, VELO will be able to transact and settle in seconds while on the Stellar blockchain
Haha same, took a flier on VELO for the 50% staking apy, down 50% still. Maybe btc and eth is the way to go after all
Thank you so much for this! What I did was I added the Custom Address to my wallet so it would appear in my Metamask. I then tried to use the SWAP option to see if there was a way to exchange it. Yes, I was being an opportunist as I've had some airdrops actually provide real funds (LPT for example). Metamask wasn't able to do the swap and I thought just trying to interact with it exposed my wallet. I was able to check Token Approval Checker and didn't see any transactions on there regarding VELO. Consider this a lesson learned - no more interacting with random airdrops.
I had a fake token (VELO) airdropped into my BSC wallet that had the same name as a legit project. Upon checking the token on bscscan I found a web address given for the fake project. The web address sounded official and the web site looked legit. There was a link to "unlock" the tokens. I did a little research about the VELO token which is a real project and figured wow maybe today is my luck day. My intuition told me it was a scam but against my better judgement I tried to unlock the tokens. In seconds all my crypto in my BSC wallet was gone. Only about $40 worth, but I felt at least $500 worth of my dignity was taken since I should have known better. The fake project had a website that was pretty close to the same as the real project's website. Definitely need to heed OP's advice and be extra cautious with anything that seems to good to be true
Ouch, that's an expensive lesson to learn. If it makes you feel any better I fell for an airdrop scam recently on the BSC network. There was a VELO token airdropped to my BSC address that gave a web address. The VELO project is legit, but the airdrop was not from the real project and gave an address that was basically a clone of the real projects web page. The scam website had a link to unlock the tokens and after trying to "unlock" the tokens I lost all my assets in the BSC wallet. Only about $40 worth of assets though, so I got off on the cheap. Always have to double check every address, app or link before any interaction
tldr; Airdrop scams have become widespread across Binance Smart Chain. Scammers are able to lure victims into paying a fee to unlock the airdropped tokens. At the current moment, a minimum of 5 million wallet addresses have been sent the fake MNEB and VELO tokens. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.*
they hammered the network i got Minereum in all 6 of my wallets. i just saw the VELO in one, and thought "i dont remember sending it to this wallet... was ibtrying to stale it somewhere?" ... then i saw that it was supposed worth $6 million usd, and was like "r/holup"
At the current moment, a minimum of 5 million wallet addresses have been sent the fake MNEB and VELO tokens. The insidious airdrop scamming practice could result in millions or even billions of more USD being stolen. >How These Scammers Steal Your Money > > >The fake airdropped tokens in one’s wallet can not be traded or exchanged. Instead, users are instructed to go to a fake replica website of the real project. Once there, users are instructed to “unlock” the tokens by paying the protocol anywhere from 0.3 - 0.9 BNB. This may also grant spending access to your wallet. > > >Unfortunately, those who unlock the tokens will never receive real compensation for the fake airdropped tokens. What is even more concerning is there are rumors of users that have connected to these fake sites, only to have the entire crypto holdings in their wallet stolen. > > >Spotting Airdrop Scams > > >Luckily, there are multiple effective ways to help users spot and identify crypto airdrop scams and scams in general. The first and perhaps best way to spot an airdrop scam is to try and exchange out of the airdropped token. If this proves impossible or unable, you may be a potential victim of an airdrop scam. > > >When attempting to exchange tokens don't interact with any untrusted contracts. Stick to trusted exchanges such as PancakeSwap, ApeSwap, DoDo etc. > > >The second way to spot an airdrop scam is to check the market cap and liquidity of the suspected project in question.

For this example, we will examine MNEB on PooCoin. > > > > > >PooCoin Chart > > >If a user was airdropped 150,000 MNEB reflecting MNE’s price, which is .10 according to CoinMarketCap, the user thinks they have $15,000 worth of MNEB tokens. A fee of .3 BNB to claim $15,000 sounds great. The only issue is the user will never get that $15,000. > > >The market cap of MNEB on PooCoin is shown to be just above $24 billion (found in green on the left). A $24 billion dollar market cap is a major red flag, as that would mean that this project is one of the top ten projects in Decentralized Finance (DeFi). > > >However, if one examines the MNEB/BNB LP holdings shown right below in green, it would show a liquidity of just over $12,000. This means it is legitimately impossible to exchange $15,000 worth of airdropped MNEB tokens.
Anyone else get some random VELO coin dropped in Trust wallet? Can’t sell it of course…
So fake $VELO BEP20 tokens just got airdropped to a bunch of addresses including mine, and the site it leads to apparently has an approval contract to drain your wallet's BTCB. Is it safe to use Metamask to send these things to a burn address? I assume it can't do anything without contract approval, but I need to be sure before trying anything.
Lightnet is not Stellar subsidiary. It is related to VELO project and both co-founded by Chatchaval Jiaravanon
Yeah. I've been doing that since may. Just don't go too deep, leave yourself a LOT of room to breathe and don't get too caught up in averaging up if the pump continues or you just might see all those gains disappear. MASK was good to me a couple days ago. And was very, very good to me when it ran to $8 recently out of nowhere. ICP borrow availability disappeared overnight and almost got my ass running from 30 to 50+ funny enough, of course it came right back down. Still not quite to 30 though. SNX just kept pumping one day and I, like I said, got too caught up averaging up and was ultimately essentially liquidated, can't win em all I guess. VELO also had me running from liquidation at one point, someone just had it set up to buy 25 velo every 3 seconds for days and that definitely worked to slowly but consistently push it up, ultimately just threw in the towel and covered at a loss. Overall it can be real fun to play with a small amount in a margin account and transfer gains out, but don't fuck around with your actual portfolio. Be careful out there.
Oh and you can get $VELO on LOBSTR too
This is great, but you also missed possibly the most important detail about $VELO. With the acquisition of Interstellar, VELO acquired a new CEO - Mike Kennedy. Why does that matter? This guy is the GOAT of payment technology. He: * Co-founded Zelle - the largest interbank payment system in the U.S. * Was head of payment strategy for Wells Fargo * Was North American President of Australian fintech/payment company, OFX * Is and advisory board member of Stellar.org
I bought VELO and SWINGBY just to stake...down more than 130%. Luckily, it's a small amount.
I'm late to this thread, but I'm very bullish on VELO. Just a couple months ago they hired a new CEO and he's the former CEO and co-founder of Zelle.
i must hold the worst coins in existence. COTI and VELO :/
is VELO dead? should i get out while i can?
I’m all in on XLM and VELO
Was surprised to not find HYDRA mentioned in your post. 180% APY via KuCoin staking. Ain’t a scam can confirm ^.^ Are there any other sources of APY that compare to 180%? The next highest APY’s I’ve seen were also on KuCoin - 50-60% on coins I can’t remember. VELO is second highest in KuCoin right now I think.
Any thoughts on VELO? Stupid high staking on KuCoin, and with what HYDRA's done for me...I'm taking a dive.
God damn I got burned by VELO
if i’m not mistaken, VELO should shoot up when bitcoin corrects?
VELO not affected but bitcoin ig
VELO is bleeding pretty hard this week
Guys you should trade on Stellar DEX and find those gems like RMT, VELO, and SLT. 😌 The volatility of BTC doesn’t even affect these Stellar tokens and fee is as usual 0.00001 XLM/trade lol.
whitepaper is legit: https://github.com/velo-finance/velo-protocol/blob/master/VELO_Whitepaper_v1.1.pdf
Your connection for 7-Eleven and VELO makes a lot of sense. I see that happening soon. Is it only available on KuCoin and OKEx at the moment?
Jesus.. VELO making some big moves.
Those asset can represent real world things like precious metals. There's https://mintx.co/ for this. You can trade these tokens on the Stellar DEX for XLM and then redeem and get them sent to you by Mintx. They can represent stocks. That's what DSTOQ is doing. They can be purely digital though like SLT, VELO or TERN.
Okay $SLT $AKN (but you should buy this one on Bittrex) $KT $VELO $DEB $TFC and more.
