 1. Binance Launches 54th Launchpool Project “Notcoin” (NOT) link
 Binance has announced its 54th Launchpool project, Notcoin (NOT), where users can stake BNB and FDUSD in different pools to mine NOT tokens over three days. Mining will commence at 00:00 (UTC) on May 13, 2024. NOT tokens will be available for trading in NOT/BTC, NOT/USDT, NOT/BNB, NOT/FDUSD, and NOT/TRY pairs starting from 12:00 (UTC) on May 16, 2024. Notably, Notcoin is one of the few projects simultaneously launching on Binance Launchpool and OKX Jumpstart. Notcoin is a project within the TON ecosystem and has gained widespread exposure through a viral game on Telegram.
 The initial circulating supply of Notcoin (NOT) is 100% of the total supply, amounting to 102,719,221,714 NOT tokens, with the Launchpool allocation representing 3% (3,081,576,651 NOT). Due to the entire supply being in circulation, the premium on FDUSD may not be as significant as in previous instances.
 2. Berachain Co-Founder Smokey The Bera Comments on Cosmos, Saying They Completely Misunderstand GTM link
 Smokey The Bera’s commentary on Cosmos highlights a perspective that Cosmos fundamentally misunderstands GTM (Go-To-Market) strategies. He suggests that Bera v2 is more akin to ETH than Cosmos and advocates for a new community or brand reshaping within Cosmos. Additionally, he has clarified that Berachain should not be touted as a Cosmos Chain, sparking discontent among some Cosmos community members. In response, Smokey The Bera reaffirms that while Berachain uses the Cosmos SDK, it does not necessitate being labeled as a Cosmos Chain. He argues that being referred to as a Cosmos Chain has been detrimental in terms of developer adoption, brand awareness, and overall perception. Smokey emphasizes that Cosmos, as a whole, benefits most from enabling strong technical achievements behind the scenes rather than seeking the spotlight.

 5. Dragonfly Partner Abandons Investment Due to Sexual Harassment Allegations Against Eclipse Founder link
 Dragonfly Managing Partner Haseeb Qureshi tweeted that during the initial due diligence on the Eclipse project, they heard rumors about founder Neel Somani’s history of sexual harassment, leading Dragonfly to quickly decide against investing. Haseeb questioned how actual investors could not have heard about these rumors if Dragonfly heard them with only minimal due diligence. Haseeb expressed disdain that Eclipse was able to secure funding and Neel was able to cash out millions in the pre-launch phase through secondary markets. Additionally, Haseeb mentioned that several people they knew were considering the investment but were deterred by these rumors. However, they were just rumors, and Dragonfly did not investigate further.
 The modular blockchain Eclipse announced a $50 million Series A funding round on March 11, 2024, led by Placeholder and Hack VC, with participation from Polychain Capital, Delphi Digital, among others. Eclipse is built on the Solana virtual machine for execution, Celestia for data availability, and Ethereum for settlement and consensus. Eclipse plans to launch its mainnet in the second quarter of 2024, with several DApps already testing its infrastructure.
