here’s the $RAT × $EXFIL flywheel 1. people trade RAT. 2. RAT’s stated 3% buy/sell tax funds purchases of EXFIL. 3. that EXFIL is distributed to eligible RAT holders. rewards depend on trading activity not a fixed yield. 4. the RAT dev says his wallet has received 91,594 EXFIL in rewards and contributed all of it to RAT/EXFIL liquidity, with the LP tokens burned. that last step is the dev’s decision, not something every reward recipient automatically does. the connection is straightforward: RAT trading generates reward funding. reward funding buys EXFIL. holders receive EXFIL. the dev recycles his rewards into the pair’s liquidity. important distinction: burning LP tokens prevents redeeming that liquidity position. it does NOT burn the underlying EXFIL, which remains available through swaps. more activity can fund more rewards. less activity means less funding. recipients can also sell their rewards, so buying pressure doesn’t guarantee price appreciation. i hold both. what interests me is an independent community creating another use for EXFIL around the product @abhilashi is building. that’s the connection worth understanding and checking against the on-chain receipts

“never buying from that dev again.” 24 hours later: new ticker, same dev, same buyer 😭 traders have responsibility. platforms still deserve scrutiny over their incentives and design. both can be true. that’s why i use @exfildotfun to inspect developer history, holders and observed trades before entering. better tools only help if we actually use them. holding longer won’t fix a bad thesis. checking who we keep funding is a start.

$EXFIL builds the trading experience. $RAT builds a community around it. Exfil just crossed $1M in recorded trading volume, while @abhilashi keeps improving the tools we use to inspect holders, follow wallets and manage positions. RAT adds another connection: its stated 3% buy/sell tax funds purchases of EXFIL for distribution to eligible RAT holders. one gives people a product to use. the other gives an independent community a mechanism to participate in the ecosystem. the next app update brings those connections closer: EXFIL paid by RAT will appear directly on your RAT bag. that’s what interests me being able to see the relationship inside the product, beyond reading about it on the timeline. i hold both. rewards depend on trading activity and don’t protect against a falling token price. come for the rats. explore the app. check the receipts. @exfildotfun

the rats just crossed $1 MILLION in trading volume Exfil’s latest stats: $1,014,100 traded since october 7. 7,006 trades. 258 traders. $604,941 in the last seven days alone. roughly 60% of the recorded volume came in the past week. that’s a milestone worth celebrating and a reason to keep listening to the people using it. @abhilashi keeps shipping. the community keeps testing, reporting bugs and sharing what needs work. i hold $EXFIL. what gets me excited is watching a product thesis turn into measurable activity. next comes the harder part: earning the next session, the next recommendation and the next trader’s trust. congrats to everyone building @exfildotfun. keep going.
