FTX Token (FTT), the native token of the FTX exchange, briefly surged by 30% after former CEO Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) posted on X for the first time in two years. SBF, currently serving a 25-year prison sentence for fraud, shared his thoughts on layoffs, stating how difficult it is to fire people and highlighting that it's often the employer's fault for not providing the right roles or management. His post, unrelated to FTX directly, referenced Elon Musk's push for government employees to report their activities or face job cuts. Following the post, FTT spiked from $1.63 to over $2.10, before retreating to around $1.69.

Despite the brief rally, FTT remains down more than 97% from its all-time high of $85.02 in 2021, before the FTX collapse. The post also marks the first time SBF has communicated since his trial, during which he was convicted of seven charges related to the FTX scandal. His family has reportedly sought a presidential pardon from the Trump administration.

TOKENIZING TIME🗣

Time tokenization has become a hot topic with the emergence of $TOLY (Toly's minutes), created on the platform Time.fun. This innovative token lets users buy and trade time, potentially offering a new angle for memecoins. Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko (Toly) praised the idea, calling time "fun" and emphasizing the potential for business communications in the crypto space.

Before retracing to $7.4M, $TOLY surged to a market cap of over $17M, sparking attention as a novel use case in the crypto world. $TOLY offers a unique opportunity to engage with creators directly, giving them an avenue to tokenize and monetize their time.
