Crypto Insights from November 2025: Airdrops, Taxes, Exchanges, and Rug Pulls
When you're trying to make sense of crypto airdrop, a free distribution of tokens to wallet holders, often tied to platform engagement or events. Also known as token giveaway, it's one of the most common ways new projects attract users—but also one of the most flooded with scams. In November 2025, we saw real airdrops like WMX and VDR actually deliver value, while others like Bird Finance and Elemon turned into ghost stories. The difference? Transparency, verified partners like CoinMarketCap, and clear rules. Most failed airdrops had no trading volume, no team, and no follow-up. If it sounds too easy, it probably is.
crypto tax, the legal obligation to report gains, rewards, and trades to tax authorities. Also known as crypto income reporting, it’s no longer optional—especially in places like India and the US. India hit hard with a flat 30% tax on Virtual Digital Assets and no loss offsets. In the US, yield farming rewards became taxable income the moment they hit your wallet. If you didn’t track your DeFi transactions, you’re already behind. These rules aren’t changing—they’re getting stricter. The posts this month didn’t just warn you—they showed you exactly what to log, how to calculate it, and where to find the tools.
crypto exchange, a platform where you buy, sell, or trade digital assets, often with varying levels of security, fees, and restrictions. Also known as crypto trading platform, it’s the gateway to the market—but not all gateways are safe. This month, we called out Baryon Network as a dead DEX with one trading pair and zero liquidity. Meanwhile, DeepBook Protocol on Sui showed what a real on-chain order book looks like: fast, transparent, and decentralized. Exchanges like Binance and Coinbase kept tightening VPN blocks with browser fingerprinting and behavioral AI. If you’re using a VPN to bypass geo-restrictions, you’re playing a game you’re already losing. The smart move? Use the right exchange for your needs—not the one that lets you sneak in.
And then there’s the rug pull, a scam where developers abandon a project and drain liquidity, leaving investors with worthless tokens. Also known as exit scam, it’s the silent killer of crypto portfolios. Looping Collective and Daisy Launch Pad weren’t just inactive—they had zero community, no audits, and no updates. The red flags were screaming: anonymous team, locked liquidity, fake marketing. You don’t need a PhD to spot these. You just need to ask: Is anyone actually using this? Is there real trading volume? Is the team real? If the answer’s no, walk away.
