BNB, Base, Sui and other layer 1/2 chains have been showing interesting momentum lately. The ecosystem development varies quite a bit across them. Before diving into any CA, it's worth mapping out which chains have genuine builder activity versus just hype cycles. Base has been attracting solid DeFi apps and has decent trading volume flowing through. BNB ecosystem remains massive with tons of projects, though quality is mixed. Sui's transaction speed and lower fees have caught some devs' attention. The key question isn't just picking a random token—it's understanding what problem each chain solves and whether the projects building there have real traction. What's your risk appetite? Long-term holds or quick flips? That usually determines which chains and tokens make sense for your portfolio.

To be honest, this round of Base does have some potential, but don't be fooled by the trading volume.

Haha, Base is really coming out, but the BNB projects are a mixed bag. --- Sui's speed is indeed outstanding, but the ecosystem still needs more nurturing. --- Honestly, it still depends on whether real users are using it; don't be fooled by the narrative. --- Regarding risk appetite, you're right. I'm just a short-term speculator; I believe in Base in the long run. --- Quality is mixed +1. The BNB ecosystem is a complete hodgepodge. Making quick money is possible, but long-term? Forget it. --- Every chain talks about problem solving, but in the end, it's all storytelling. Who has truly solved the problems? --- Ultimately, you still need to follow the developers who are actually building; once the hype fades, it's over.

Are those DeFi projects on Base really reliable, or is it just another round of rug pulls?

This round of base indeed has substance, more than the water projects on bNb.

Haha, Sui's low fees are really amazing, much more comfortable than BNB. Base is indeed taking off in DeFi right now, but you need to carefully evaluate the projects. There are too many BNB projects, which makes it easy to stumble into pitfalls, and the quality varies greatly.
