Blast, a decentralized finance platform, is seeing a flurry of activity with multiple new initiatives and memecoin launches. The platform is hosting a memecoin trading competition with Pacbotapp, offering 5,600 Blast Gold as a prize. Additionally, a new memecoin, $NOGOLD, is available for a free claim on a FCFS basis, with users of partner projects eligible for 1,111 tokens and those with 5+ transactions on Blast eligible for 222 tokens. The YOLO Liquidity Bootstrapping Pool (LBP) has also gone live on hiBazaar, allowing users to buy and trade YOLO ahead of its initial airdrop and Season 2 launch. The LBP will run for two days or until a cap of $12 million is reached, with the starting price at $0.026739 and 10% of the supply available. Furthermore, the BLASTR Lottery is set to award 30,000 Blast Gold, with draws occurring every 5 minutes. These developments are part of a broader strategy to increase engagement and participation on the Blast platform, including the upcoming Fantasy Top tournaments.
