Several important developments in the Web3 ecosystem this week are worth noting. Hourglass's stablecoin pre-deposit activity has entered a new phase, with withdrawal channels officially opening on December 31st, allowing participants to gradually release their rights. Meanwhile, Espresso's airdrop registration website is now live, and addresses that complete the proof of humanity verification (requiring 30 points) are eligible to participate. Additionally, Architect Finance, a centralized exchange focused on perpetual futures trading, has received support from institutions like Coinbase, further enhancing its trading product suite. These developments reflect ongoing innovation in the DeFi and derivatives trading markets.

Is Hourglass now withdrawable? Finally, I've waited so long that my hair has fallen out. Espresso airdrop is asking for human verification again. This tactic is getting pretty worn out. Architect has Coinbase backing, which is pretty good, but with such fierce competition in perpetual futures, can it really break through?

Hourglass's timing is pretty good this time, unlocking on December 31st, the New Year’s market is coming Wait, does espresso really need 30 minutes of identity verification? That's a bit troublesome, is this to prevent witch hunts? Did architect get involved with Coinbase? Now the derivatives market is getting competitive

Wait, can Hourglass be claimed only on December 31? I forgot I even had this thing haha Espresso's airdrop this time requires 30 minutes of proof of humanity, it's really a hassle Architect Finance claims to be innovative just because it’s backed by Coinbase? There are so many futures exchanges already Stablecoins are everywhere, what new tricks can they pull this time Hmm, this week has been somewhat interesting, but I don’t feel there’s anything particularly worth going all in on I actually remember Hourglass, I should have claimed it earlier I registered for Espresso yesterday, just waiting to see how much the airdrop is worth in the end Perpetual futures traders now have another option, with such fierce competition, who will survive till the end? Will the network get congested again on December 31? DeFi innovation? I think it’s more about fundraising innovation haha

I've looked at the Hourglass project for a while, and it feels like a complete flip-flop. Can it really make money? Espresso's human nature proof is back with another set, 30-minute verification, isn't that troublesome? Architect Finance just boasts about receiving CB's investment, and the derivatives market is so competitive. Another week listening to others' stories. What’s the use of Coinbase endorsement? The key is whether they can run away.

Hourglass unlocks at the end of the year, gotta wait again... That person's proof of humanity for espresso is a bit annoying, 30 minutes? Never mind, I'll first see if there's a profit before deciding.

Can Hourglass make a profit? I'm still hesitating whether to go for it or not. Espresso's proof of humanity takes 30 minutes, right... By the way, what is Coinbase planning to do by investing in architect? Perpetual futures are heating up again. Every day there's a new project and airdrop, but it feels like only a few are truly worth bottom-fishing.
