Infinex's Token Launch on the Sonar Platform

Project Overview

Infinex is a decentralized finance platform launched by Synthetix founder Kain Warwick in April 2024. The project aims to break down the boundaries between CeFi and DeFi, providing a smooth user experience similar to centralized exchanges while maintaining the non-custodial nature and security of decentralized services.

Participation Guide and Details

On November 27th, Infinex, a new project created by Synthetix founder Kain Warwick, officially announced its upcoming TGE, planning a public sale on Sonar with a $300 million FDV, intending to sell 5% of the INX token supply, aiming to raise $15 million, and chose Sonar as the launch platform.

According to Infinex's official introduction, this public sale will have two participation methods: a guaranteed quota and a lottery allocation. The guaranteed quota part is for users holding liquid (unlocked) Patron NFTs, with specific guarantee strategies as follows:

  • 1 Patron NFT: $2000 quota;
  • 5 Patron NFTs: $15,000 quota;
  • 25 Patron NFTs: $100,000 quota;
  • 100 Patron NFTs: $500,000 quota;
  • Allocation follows a cumulative mechanism. For example, if you hold 32 liquid Patron NFTs, your quota will be: 100000 + 15000 + 2000 + 2000 = $119,000.

The lottery allocation is open to all users; anyone can apply to participate. Specific rules are as follows:

  • The minimum subscription amount is $200, the maximum subscription amount is $5000;
  • If the subscription volume exceeds the limit, orders will be allocated through a lottery;
  • Each order has an equal chance of being selected. If selected, the order's subscription will be fully allocated;
  • Unfulfilled orders will be automatically refunded.

It is worth mentioning that this public sale will have a one-year lock-up restriction, but it includes an early unlock clause. The specific design for early unlocking is as follows:

  • At TGE, if early unlock is chosen, the subscription will be at a price corresponding to a $1 billion FDV;
  • During the one-year lock-up period, this price will linearly decrease to the initially set $300 million;
  • If the trading price of INX after listing is higher than the real-time early unlock price, some public sale participants might choose to unlock early, thus making the unlock curve smoother.

Didi in Latin America: Already a Digital Banking Giant

Didi, known in China primarily as a ride-hailing giant, has transformed into a digital banking powerhouse in Latin America, serving over 25 million users. While its financial ambitions were stifled in China by the dominance of Alipay and WeChat Pay—which left little room for competitors—Didi found fertile ground in Latin America’s underbanked markets. Facing a cash-dominated economy and low banking penetration, Didi built its own financial infrastructure from scratch. It partnered with OXXO, a ubiquitous convenience store chain in Mexico, to allow cash top-ups via its DiDi Pay system—effectively creating an alternative banking network. This move not only improved transaction efficiency but also addressed critical safety issues, as drivers carrying cash were often targets of robbery. Leveraging its vast data on driver and passenger behavior, Didi developed a unique "behavioral credit" system, enabling it to offer loans to individuals with no formal banking history. Products like DiDi Préstamos and high-yield savings accounts (DiDi Cuenta) helped capture and retain user funds, turning Didi into a central financial hub. Beyond finance, Didi now facilitates broader economic activities: it supports e-commerce partnerships (like AliExpress’ "buy now, pay later" service) and accelerates the adoption of Chinese electric vehicles by providing auto loans to drivers. This evolution from ride-hailing to integrated fintech and industrial enabler highlights Didi’s adaptability and the success of its "infrastructure-first" strategy in emerging markets. The company’s journey in Latin America underscores a broader lesson for Chinese tech firms expanding abroad: success requires not just exporting technology, but rebuilding the foundational systems that make it relevant—especially in regions where basic services are lacking. Didi’s growth in the region reflects a return to the gritty, ground-up innovation that once defined China’s internet boom.

In Surgut, 'Money Launderers' Laundered Nearly ₽100 Million Through Cryptocurrency

In Surgut, Russia, enforcement authorities have dismantled an organized criminal group that laundered nearly 100 million rubles using cryptocurrency. The group specialized in the illegal circulation of payment means, according to an official statement from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The criminals purchased bank cards from individuals to gain access to their accounts, which were then used to collect illicitly obtained funds. The group subsequently cashed out the money, converted it into cryptocurrency, and transferred it to their "curators," charging a commission of 3-15% for their services. According to data from a cryptocurrency exchange, the transaction volume involving the suspects exceeded 94 million rubles. The purchased bank cards were also used for remote thefts across Russia. Three members of the group have been detained, with another placed under travel restrictions. A criminal case has been initiated under the relevant article of the Russian Criminal Code. The Bank of Russia plans to enhance monitoring of the crypto market and strengthen measures against fraud, including the launch of the "Antidrop" system by mid-2027. This system will provide banks with information on "drops" – individuals whose bank details are used for shadow transactions. As part of this effort, banks will be required to link Russian citizens' accounts to their tax identification numbers (INN).
