> **Visual Context:** The image shows a Gate.io promotion for USD1 stablecoin, highlighting an **8% estimated annualized yield** with no lockup required, a minimum holding of just **1 USD1**, and a maximum of **999,999,999 USD1**, available as a spot (现货) product. This visually reinforces the post's message that simply holding USD1 in a Gate.io account can generate yield without staking or additional purchases.

Gate's USD1: Without locking up funds, simply holding USD1 does the trick.

With ≥ 1 USD1 in your asset account, no need for extra purchases or staking/locking, estimated annualized yield up to 8%, with earnings rolling over"

> **Visual Context:** The image shows Dave Ramsey, host of "The Dave Ramsey Show," wearing headphones with arms crossed in a studio setting, appearing skeptical or judgmental. The caption humorously likens his disapproving expression to a financial advisor calling out a classic investing mistake: watching a stock like $CASHCAT run from $10M to $200M, buying in at the top out of FOMO, then selling after a 75% loss—essentially the opposite of his well-known financial advice.  

> 
> "“So you saw $CASHCAT at $10M but didn’t want to topblast so you stayed sidelined”

“Yes, Dave”

“And then you saw it run to $200M and felt the fomo so you decided to just buy in there instead”

“That’s right Dave”

“And then the next 2 weeks you were down over 75% so you sold at"

Self custody exploits, data breaches, holier than thou self custody advocates who have sh*t on exchanges in shambles.

Tell me - what is the safest way to store your crypto assets? 

And associated data?"
