 is a viral meme illustration by artist Phillip Banks, depicting a laid-back dog in casual clothes whose easygoing attitude took social media by storm before a crypto project used the meme to launch Just a Chill Guy as a Solana-based token.

What Does Just a Chill Guy Aim to Achieve?

The CHILLGUY meme coin aims to spread a "Why worry?" philosophy into cryptocurrency markets by embracing the laid-back, stress-free attitude that made the original meme go viral. The project transforms this easygoing vibe into a community-driven token, where being low-key isn't just a catchphrase — it's a shared mindset among holders.

The CHILLGUY community brings this philosophy to life by sharing endless variations of the CHILLGUY meme across social platforms. Through market swings and viral trends, CHILLGUY keeps his iconic pose: hands in pockets, subtle smirk, perpetually relaxed.

Just a Chill Guy (CHILLGUY) operates as a Solana Program Library (SPL) token on the 

 blockchain, leveraging the network's ultrafast speeds and low costs to ensure smooth trading. The token was created using Pump.fun, a specialized platform that lets users launch Solana-based tokens without any fees, removing traditional barriers to token creation.

CHILLGUY is a community takeover (CTO), meaning it's completely owned and directed by its token holders with no central team in control. This decentralized structure ensures the project stays true to its community-driven nature, its holders collectively guiding its future while embodying the laid-back spirit of the original meme.

The CHILLGUY token launched with a maximum supply of 1 billion tokens, of which 999,965,435 are currently in circulation. This near-complete distribution of tokens to the market supports active trading and community participation.

What makes CHILLGUY's tokenomics particularly notable is its widespread distribution across more than 142,000 unique holders (as of Nov 27, 2024), achieved in just 12 days. This rapid expansion of its holder base demonstrates strong community adoption and aligns with the project's decentralized, community-driven principles.

CHILLGUY has exploded across social media, especially on TikTok, where the meme has amassed hundreds of millions of views. Its laid-back character resonates with users worldwide, inspiring countless creative adaptations.

Major brands worldwide have embraced CHILLGUY in their marketing campaigns. From Sprite Europe to NFL on CBS, the character has resonated across mainstream media, even catching the attention of global figures like El Salvador's president Nayib Bukele.

The “Chill Guy” meme’s influence spans multiple social media platforms, with a growing community of followers: 96.6K on X (

). On the other hand, the meme token itself also has a vast community, with 39.9K on X (

) and an active Telegram channel of over 15,000 members. These numbers reflect the meme's ability to engage audiences across different platforms.

The token's popularity in cryptocurrency markets matches its social media success, with CHILLGUY maintaining a substantial 24-hour trading volume of over $330.03M as of Nov 27, 2024. This high trading activity demonstrates the strong market interest in CHILLGUY beyond its meme status.

Looking to trade Just a Chill Guy tokens? Bybit now offers the CHILLGUY/USDT Spot trading pair and CHILLGUYUSDT Perpetual contract. To get started, you’ll first need to create a Bybit account, then fund it with cryptocurrency and navigate to the 

While CHILLGUY has maintained strong trading volumes and continues gaining mainstream attention through its viral social media presence, investors should carefully weigh its strengths and risk factors before making investment decisions.

With its widespread brand adoption, sustained trading activity and explosive community growth of over 142,000 holders, CHILLGUY demonstrates significant market potential. However, meme coins are inherently volatile. Potential investors should

Just a Chill Guy (CHILLGUY): Embracing the Art of Nonchalance

Zircuit (ZRC) combines optimistic and ZK rollups with AI-driven security, offering fast, low-cost Ethereum Layer 2 solutions. 

 network has flourished, mainly due to the ongoing network congestion, high fees and poor scalability of the latter. Many of these platforms use rollup technology, whereby batches of multiple transactions processed off-chain are bundled together and posted in bulk to the underlying Layer 1. Ethereum-linked rollups mainly come in two varieties 

 (ZK). While optimistic rollups boast lower computational overhead, the ZK variety of these networks features a higher degree of security.

Zircuit (ZRC) is a Layer 2 chain that adopts a hybrid approach, combining the elements of optimistic and 

. This lets the platform offer the performance benefits of optimistic technology along with the security of ZK validity proofs. To further enhance overall security, Zircuit uses a unique 

 (AI)–driven system of monitoring for malicious transactions.

 (ZRC) is a hybrid Layer 2 blockchain that combines the features of optimistic and ZK rollups, and uses AI-driven monitoring for potentially harmful transactions. 

 rollup development technology, a popular framework for building optimistic rollup networks. Additionally, it uses zero-knowledge proofs, which lets the platform offer the best of both worlds 

 the performance benefits of optimistic rollups and the security of ZK technology. Zircuit is 

The Zircuit project takes security very seriously, and has introduced a unique system of AI-based protection against malicious transactions at the sequencer node level. The use of ZK proofs and an AI-based protection system make Zircuit one of the most secure platforms in the competitive world of Ethereum Layer 2 chains.

Along with its excellent security benefits, Zircuit also boasts low costs, fast transactions, excellent scalability and 2-second block production intervals. All these features make it an ideal environment for 

 (DApps) in various niches, particularly 

 (DeFi). In fact, the leading protocols within the Zircuit ecosystem are all dedicated to the finance niche, with Zircuit Staking being the largest application by TVL.

With its heavy focus on DeFi, Zircuit aims to become a leading liquidity hub for various token types within the sector, including 

. These assets can be staked through the Zircuit staking program — supported by the platform's Liquidity Hub — to earn staking APRs, airdrop rewards and points based on the Zircuit Point program (covered further in our article).

The platform also operates a secure native bridging solution, 

, to help users transfer assets between its Layer 2 network and Ethereum Layer 1.

The company behind the project, Zircuit Ltd., was founded in 2021 in Canada by Dr. Martin Derka, Jan Gorzny and Angel Xu. Zircuit's testnet was launched in November 2023, but made headlines in April 2024 when the project reported that its 

 (TVL) had soared past $2 billion. While testnet TVLs are more a gauge of future potential for a blockchain than an indicator of its existing worth, the news attracted the attention of industry observers toward the platform. Following its highly publicized testnet success, Zircuit launched the first phase of its mainnet in August 2024. This was followed by the launch of the platform's native token, ZRC, in November 2024.

As a typical rollup, Zircuit uses an off-chain sequencer node to batch and organize Layer 2 transactions for subsequent posting to the underlying Ethereum Layer 1. The batches have ZK validity proofs attached to them to signal to Layer 1 validators that they’re free from fraudulent transactions. Zircuit's architecture also includes prover nodes, whose job is to produce these validity proofs.

However, unlike other rollups using ZK proofs (also known as validity proofs), Zircuit doesn't generate validity proofs for every block of transactions. Instead, some blocks have pre-generated template proofs, while others go through the process of having a dedicated validity proof created for them. After a few blocks featuring validity proofs, there are several more that utilize template proofs. The image below illustrates this approach.

The key reason Zircuit has adopted this form of proof design is that the process of generating ZK proofs is computationally intensive. By using template proofs for some of the blocks in a sequence, Zircuit can reduce the overall computational overhead. However, the project’s team has stated that the template proof model is temporary, and will be phased out in the future. At that stage, the platform will move to generating ZK proofs for each block.

Zircuit features a highly modular design whereby provers — responsible for generating validity proofs on the platform — can easily be plugged into or removed from the network. This modular approach is distinct from the standard ZK rollup design, in which provers are more tightly and less flexibly integrated into the overall architecture.

As noted earlier, Zircuit uses a dedicated sequencer to organize and batch transactions into blocks. The platform also applies AI-driven monitoring at the sequencer level (the Sequencer Level Security, or SLS) to spot and exclude fraudulent transactions before they’re finalized on Layer 2.

When transactions are first posted to Zircuit, they enter the 

 — a temporary area from which the sequencer picks and organizes individual transactions into blocks. The mempool is being monitored at all times, using AI algorithms to identify suspicious transactions. If a transaction in the mempool raises a flag, it's quarantined and assessed for validity before the sequencer can include it in a block. The image below shows how this process works.

One of the distinct features of Zircuit is its hybrid architecture, which combines the properties of optimistic and ZK rollups. At the base level, Zircuit is built using Optimism's Bedrock development framework, a technology popular for optimistic rollup networks. However, the use of ZK proofs — or, to be more precise, a combination of validity proofs and template proofs — ensures that Zircuit enjoys a security level that standard optimistic rollups normally can't match.

The use of AI-based SLS provides robust security to Zircuit, complementing the already highly secure ZK proof system. Very few Layer 2 networks in the industry currently feature anything similar, making the platform a true pioneer of AI use for sequencer-level operations.

Like any rollup based on Optimism Bedrock, Zircuit enjoys EVM compatibility. This allows for smooth interoperability with the underlying Ethereum Layer 1. EVM compatibility also makes it easy for developers familiar with Ethereum’s environment to develop Zircuit-based DApps, or to port existing Ethereum applications to the platform. Developers can take advantage of technologies commonly used for Ethereum (e.g., the Solidity programming language and the Hardhat development framework) to build Zircuit applications and smart contracts.

Zircuit Bridge is a native bridging solution designed to easily transfer tokens between Ethereum and Zircuit. It boasts high security, low transaction fees and fast transfers, and allows users to move a variety of cryptocurrencies between Ethereum and Zircuit, including ETH, 

) and LRTs like Super Symbiotic LRT (weETHs). As of late November 2024, the total number of cryptos supported by the bridge is close to 30.

Zircuit has launched a reward program called Zircuit Points. Users can earn these Points by staking supported assets, and by participating in the Build to Earn initiative (more on this below). Accumulated points will be converted to ZRC tokens in the future. Points also create the opportunity to qualify for token airdrops.

The primary way for most users to earn Zircuit points is via 

. The Zircuit Staking program lets you stake LSTs, LRTs, popular stablecoins, some wrapped tokens and Ether (ETH) to earn points. Using LSTs and LRTs, you can earn yields (along with native Zircuit staking APRs and Points) from the respective staking and restaking platforms that issue these assets.

Zircuit Points earned via staking have different multipliers, depending upon the asset. For example, Ether has a multiplier of 0.5, while LSTs, LRTs and stablecoins have a multiplier of 1. Multipliers for different LST and LRT assets may be subject to change in the future.

Build to Earn is another way to qualify for Zircuit Points. The program allows developers to contribute to the Zircuit ecosystem and earn Points in a number of ways, including:

Launched in November 2024, ZRC is the platform's native cryptocurrency. It's an 

 asset deployed on both Zircuit and Ethereum Layer 1. ZRC is mainly used for reward distributions, and participation in token airdrops for ecosystem DApps. Currently, transaction fees on the network are paid in Ether. It's possible that, in the future, ZRC might be used for some transaction fee payments.

ZRC is also used for rewards under the Gas Rebate program. As users conduct transactions on the platform, they 

. Zircuit’s Gas Rebate program provides rebates to offset some of the incurred fees. The amount of ZRC earned as a rebate is proportional to the amount spent on gas in ETH; the project's documentation states that for each ETH spent on gas, the user earns 125% in ZRC. All kinds of gas fee payments qualify for the rebate, including ordinary asset transfers and transactions involving interaction with Zircuit DApps.

ZRC is a supply-capped token, with a maximum and total supply of 10 billion. The token's supply allocation shares are as follows:

The ZRC token is available on Bybit's Spot market as a swap pair with USDT (

 to grab a share of the 5 million ZRC prize pool. New users who sign up for a Bybit account and complete identity verification can earn ZRC rewards by accumulating a deposit volume of at least 2,000 ZRC, or by depositing 100 USDT and trading 100 USDT worth of ZRC via their first trade with Bybit. 

Meanwhile, existing users can qualify for ZRC rewards by trading at least 500 USDT worth of ZRC on the Bybit Spot market, with the possibility of earning up to 10,000 ZRC based on trading volume. The 

 event will run through Dec 10, 2024, 8:59AM UTC.

Zircuit is among the pioneering Layer 2 platforms to adopt a hybrid design for a rollup network. Thanks to the platform's architecture, users can take advantage of low transaction costs, fast transfers and great scalability while enjoying the benefits of high security delivered by ZK proofs and AI-driven mempool monitoring. AI-based monitoring for fraudulent transactions is a particularly notable feature of the platform and is undoubtedly among the most advanced technologies employed in the blockchain industry.

User security combined with faster and cheaper transactions for the Ethereum network — all in one package — is now feasible, thanks to Zircuit's innovative technology and unique approach!

Bybit Celebrates 6th Anniversary with $1.2M Prize Pool and bbSOL Supercharging Campaign

Our weekly crypto derivatives analytics report delves into macro events, the current state of crypto and trading signals from spot trading volume, and futures, options and perpetual contracts.

ETH has outperformed, bolstered by SEC Chair Gary Gensler's announcement of his Jan 20, 2025 departure, and suggested by growing open interest in ETH perpetual. This positive momentum extends to several large-cap altcoins previously scrutinized by the SEC, as indicated by bullish funding rates for long positions.

Please check out the report’s highlights.

ETH Open Interest Grows While BTC’s Declines

ETH is outperforming BTC following the announcement of SEC Chair Gary Gensler’s departure, as evidenced in perpetual swap markets. BTC open interest has decreased from last week's highs, while ETH contracts have increased. Additionally, ETH trade volumes constitute a larger share of daily trading as compared to much of the past six months, despite an overall dip in trade volumes this week. The gradual decline in BTC open interest, without a surge in trading activity, indicates a strategic repositioning, rather than a wave of liquidations.

BTC Option Curve Inversion Deepens as Price Retreats

The pullback in the spot BTC price from the $100K target has led to a flat ATM volatility term structure, with short-tenor options dropping below 60%. 

This trend continues the correlation between term structure inversion and BTC spot price returns observed since the U.S. election on November 5, 2024

. The decline in front-end volatility aligns with lower realized volatility levels. While demand for short-tenor options has moderated, there hasn't been a notable change in open interest for calls or puts. Instead, their growth has stalled at the week's start.

Sentiment in ETH options markets seems moderately more bullish than in BTC's during the recent decline in momentum from the post-election rally. Call options lead in both trading volumes and open interest.

 in general haven’t gained proper traction is because the majority of people don’t understand the technology behind them. From the ever-increasing novelty of the technical terms to the complex nature of crypto products, most investors shy away from crypto because of its fast-paced, highly technical and relatively volatile nature.

However, Origin Protocol is on a mission to onboard over 100 million users into the crypto space by simplifying entry into the two most explored niches — 

Let’s take a deeper look at how Origin is driving mass adoption through an innovative, user-first approach to all its crypto products.

 is a user-centric web3 platform meticulously crafted to open the web3 world to the masses, with a primary focus on two pivotal spaces: DeFi and NFTs. 

With its broad vision of a fully decentralized future, Origin Protocol aims to equip the next wave of crypto adopters with the necessary tools to explore and exploit blockchain technology.

Established in 2017 by seasoned Ethereum enthusiasts Joshua Fraser and Matthew Liu, Origin has been innovating products designed to simplify DeFi. In 2020, Origin introduced its yield-bearing stablecoin OUSD to the world. OUSD lets you automatically earn yields in your Ethereum wallet, without 

In May 2023, Origin announced its renewed vision for the DeFi world by adding ETH staking through Origin Ether (OETH) into its ecosystem, which opens up users to the blossoming world of 

Origin has also had a marked influence in the world of non-fungible tokens through its NFT arm, Origin Story, which includes a launchpad to create custom NFTs, an 

, and many tools to help people navigate the confusing world of NFTs.

The main focus of Origin is to create transparent and open peer-to-peer marketplaces that allow users to freely engage in decentralized commerce. To achieve this, Origin combines their Javascript library, Origin.js, with the 

 blockchain and InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) to simplify the creation of 

 help eliminate the need for intermediaries in Origin’s marketplaces, making them decentralized and open. Furthermore, developers can leverage the Origin.js library to engage with smart contracts without having to interact with underlying blockchains.

In order to secure and manage user identity on its platform, Origin supports the 

 identity standard, which links your identity to your Ethereum wallet. Once you verify your profile, the information is published on IPFS, a filing system designed for true decentralized organizing and transfer of data, with the resulting hash stored on Ethereum for security.

Another critical component of the Origin-based marketplaces is the ratings and review feature, which helps build a user’s reputation and trustworthiness in the shared economy setup. Users are encouraged to leave reviews and rate products on the buyer’s and seller's sides.

One of the flagship products of Origin is the OToken, which comprises a 

, the Origin Dollar (OUSD) and Origin Ether (OETH). Both OUSD and OETH are 

–compliant tokens designed to earn you yields directly from your Ethereum-compatible wallet. In addition, the two tokens feature a novel 

 that differentiates them from most other ERC-20 tokens.

In line with Origin’s mission of simplifying DeFi, the OTokens generate yields from ETH or USD through 

, without the often-confusing process of staking, lock-up periods and complex compounding structures.

The smart contracts for both tokens are governed through the staking of the Origin DeFi Governance (OGV) token, as stakers receive voting rights to proposals based on their locked tokens. OGV stakers can vote on which specific addresses will receive yields and fees charged, among other things, and receive rewards for doing so.

The functionality of the OTokens is based on the following key concepts.

Origin Dollar (OUSD), launched in September 2020, is the first half of Origin’s DeFi token system. It’s a yield-generating, low-risk stablecoin deployed on Ethereum. To ensure its price stability, OUSD is backed 1:1 by 

, the reserves of which can be verified on-chain and safeguarded through stringent security processes and audits.

In order to obtain OUSD, you can swap your USDT, USDC or DAI for OUSD, which is then deployed on-chain to generate yields that are sent directly to your Ethereum wallet and compounded automatically. Its governance is fully decentralized through the OGV token, eliminating centralized entities.

Yield sources for OUSD include automated yield-bearing strategies in various DeFi protocols, such as Compound and Convex Finance. Unlike other stablecoins that lose purchasing power with time, OUSD continues to automatically generate income into your wallet.

Introduced in May 2023, Origin Ether (OETH) tokens are the latest addition to Origin’s DeFi ecosystem. Since

 in Sept. 2022, liquid staking derivatives (LSDs) have increased in demand with copious potential in the world of DeFi staking. Meanwhile, OETH is pegged 1:1 to Ether (ETH), wrapped Ether (

) and liquid staking tokens like Lido Staked ETH (

OETH was introduced to simplify liquid staking of Ethereum through risk-adjusted yield strategies spread across LSDs and DeFi protocols.

While OETH shares the same code as OUSD, the latter is denominated in Ether while OUSD conforms to the U.S. dollar. Therefore, it accepts collateral in ETH and WETH, as well as the LSDs that back it: stETH, rETH and frxETH.

Once you deposit your ETH, WETH or supported LSDs, they’re used as collateral and distributed across various crypto lending protocols, and the yields are sent directly to your wallet. Just as with OUSD, OGV stakers vote on how assets will be allocated to the different yield strategies.

Origin Story: Creating Bespoke White-Label NFT Marketplaces

Another Origin core product is Origin Story, a platform that allows NFT enthusiasts to create and sell, and to engage with their audience in an open and decentralized manner. Origin Story features include an NFT launchpad, a 

 NFT marketplace and aggregator, and a creator provenance feature to preserve the authenticity of minted NFTs.

The robust NFT platform lets people create their own NFT stores and sell their NFTs in three formats: 1/1 auctions, limited editions or open editions. While the NFT prices are denominated in ETH or USD, the platform supports various currencies, such as ERC-20 tokens and USDC, alongside the option of fiat and representative payment methods, such as credit cards. Additionally, since Origin is a multi-chain platform users can transact via Ethereum or 

Through Origin Story, the protocol hopes to increase the utility and value of the OGN token so that OGN holders can sell for free on the platform. Once a trade is made on Story, 15% of the proceeds can be swapped for OGN, which is then locked for six months before it can be withdrawn. Through this pricing model, millions of OGN tokens will be removed from the circulating supply over time, driving up its value.

At the same time, participating artists also receive royalties for the resale of their NFTs in secondary markets, such as 

. Royalties are set at 10%, of which 7.5% is allotted for the artist and 2.5% reserved for Origin. Eventually, Origin aims to let creators determine their preferred percentage.

Origin Story has already attracted the attention of the NFT community with its portfolio, consisting of NFT artists such as Trevor Jones, Don Diablo, Paris Hilton and George Lopez. The platform also broke a record by successfully selling a 

In August 2023, Origin Story added Redeemable NFTs to its features. Users can redeem NFTs for physical goods, from real estate and luxury fashion to digital items like tickets and discount codes. The innovative feature aims to make NFTs tangible in order to drive global adoption.

Origin’s dual token system powers and governs the operations of its diverse products.

To promote long-term growth, Origin Protocol incentivizes its users through the Origin DeFi Governance token (formerly Origin Dollar Governance). Users who lock up their tokens (for a month to four years) receive voting power that’s represented as non-transferable, voter-escrowed OGV tokens (veOGV).

Not only does staking OGV tokens earn users voting rights to governance proposals, but it also attracts rewards through an inflationary structure so users can earn up to 102% APY by staking for a maximum of four years. Users can also delegate their OGV tokens, allowing others to become active voters.

The token allocation for OGV is as shown below:

An ERC-20 token, Origin Token (OGN) is the utility and value accrual token on the Origin Story NFT platform. Through OGN staking, users can receive ETH and OGN rewards generated by Origin Story. The staking is 

, whereby holders earn points for locking up OGN and receive bonuses at the end of the Season. Season 3 of OGN staking ended in July 2023, with Season 4 scheduled to begin in October 2023.

As of Sep 5, 2023, OGN’s price was $0.075, a 97.76% drop from its ATH of $3.35 on Apr 8, 2021, and a 19.84% increase from its ATL of $0.063 on Jun 10, 2023.

Price analysts are cautiously optimistic about the future price of the Origin Token. According to PricePrediction's forecast for 2025, 

 a maximum price of $0.29 and increase to $1.85 in 2030. Meanwhile, DigitalCoinPrice

 OGN’s price could hit $0.27 in 2025, and reach a maximum of $0.79 by 2030.

From the onset, Origin Protocol has been community-focused, empowering its own by giving them a voice through voting for proposals. Furthermore, the platform has implemented an OGV airdrop to reward its users for contributing to the platform's growth.

Origin’s approach to simplifying DeFi with OTokens is innovative and much-needed in the niche. As web3's future continues to take shape, Origin’s platform will be instrumental in onboarding users worldwide into blockchain through simple and easy-to-understand products.

With this in mind, Origin Protocol is a good investment for a long-term investor who believes in the continued mass adoption of blockchain technology.

That said, the above isn’t financial advice. We highly recommend that you
