Spotlight
Take note friends! Important opportunity related to our friends at @TokenSight_Io!
There are massive $ARB-rewards up for grabs via trading on TokenSight - as traders can earn a share of the 315,000 $ARB tokens available through the KyberSwap STIP Trading Campaign!
As background, TokenSight is an extremely cool new Dex Trading Platform with TG Bot that we are very excited to be spreading the word about…
If you have used Banana Bot or Bonk Bot then the basic concept will be familiar to you but TokenSight is revolutionizing the model via the ability to trade via secure, self-custodial wallets… AND via their TokenSight Dashboard with portfolio overview, fiat on-ramping, reach across 10+ chains, and all sorts of other boolish features, including 0% fee trading on TON via their Telegram bot!
See the tweet below for more details and make sure to follow TokenSight on Twitter for more updates!
