1 · Vanta (SN8) pays traders in alpha — ERC-20 payout demand makes it the highest-probability second crossing. Entry logic: watch the bridge contract, not the announcement; accumulate in the 72h pre-listing window when Base pools are thin. Position sizing: 40% of crossing budget here.

2 · Traps: any token from a subnet burning 99%+ miner incentives with zero revenue — the top-10 emissions rank does not save it once immunity expires. Red-flag checklist: MinerBurned > 99%, no verified revenue, no buyback program, flat in-chain stake for 30 days.

3 · Catalysts: SEC ETF decision (GTAO S-1) and 128→256 expansion — both compress the window for mid-ranked subnets to cross while their story still commands attention. Expected timeline and which candidates benefit first.
