> **Visual Note:** A tweet by @hansolar21 says "See yall at kbw!" quoting a tweet from @mag0nia_B announcing a "Variational TGE Pre-KBW Secret Meetup" with @variational_io and @reboundx_net for a private event bringing "Tradi Liquidity Onchain," supporting the post's speculation about a Variational airdrop announcement at their secret Korea Blockchain Week meetup on Sept 30.

> **Visual Note:** The image shows a Variational "How to Farm Your First 100+ Points" leaderboard, displaying user rankings with points such as 791 and 1699, alongside associated numerical scores like 125.62074 and 153.455154. It illustrates the pre-TGE point farming activity on Variational, drawing a parallel to Lighter's earlier pre-TGE metrics that significantly declined after its token generation event.  

> 
> "What will happen to 
@variational_io
 after TGE.

Let’s look at 
@Lighter_xyz
 - they already went through this cycle.

Lighter pre-TGE:
> TVL: $1.45B
> Volume: $200B
> OI: $1.4B

~2 months after TGE:
> TVL: $870M
> Volume: $76.8B
> OI: $715M

Almost every metric was cut in half."

> "If you didn't choose variational after lighter issued its token,

but instead opted for standx, extended, pacifica, and so on, or even chose cascade,

then right now, you're surely regretting your decision.

I don't mean any disrespect toward the above projects; from what I can"
