🔍 Quick Stats

  • 💼 Exchange: OKX (Web, App, API)

⚔️ OKX Leans Into Volatility

OKX just dropped two new perpetual contracts — and the names alone are worth a double take: USELESS and NEWT.

These aren’t your average blue-chip plays. USELESS is riding meme waves. NEWT is surfing the AI x Layer 2 hype cycle.

The strategy? Tap into the emerging retail energy that’s powering every token with a dog, chatbot, or both. The goal? Degens. Volume. And volatility.


🐸 Why This Launch Matters

USELESS and NEWT aren’t just punchlines.

  • 🪙 USELESS is up 200% in the past 30 days — all vibes, no roadmap, pure retail fuel
  • 🧠 NEWT Protocol is actually building: an AI-powered rollup, dev marketplace, and predictive agent tooling

OKX smells alpha — not necessarily in fundamentals, but in momentum.

And in 2025, momentum is fundamentals (for now).


🧾 OKX’s Perpetual Playbook

This isn’t their first meme–AI rodeo.

  • 🐶 DOGE, PEPE — FOMO blasts followed by crickets
  • 🤖 AGIX, FET — huge hype but rely heavily on tech execution
  • 🧼 Pattern: Volume spikes at launch, then… prove it or lose it

OKX knows the play:

  • 📊 High leverage attracts short-term traders
  • 🫧 Liquidity surges in — and sometimes evaporates
  • 🗣️ Community buzz is everything

So far, no whales or influencers have co-signed the launch. Retail is running the show.


🧠 What Is NEWT Protocol?

📛 Name: Newton Protocol 🎯 Focus: Rollup layer for AI-powered trading 🔗 Use case:

In other words: if GPT and Ethereum had a baby, and it day-traded.


🔮 The Bigger Picture: Meme vs Machine

This is a case study in speculation vs substance:

Token Core Value Prop Risk Level
USELESS Meme culture + FOMO 🚨 High
NEWT AI dev infra ⚠️ Medium

But let’s be real: For most traders jumping in on Day 1 of these perps, it’s not about tech. It’s about speed, hype, and leverage sliders. The real question? Will anyone still be here in 14 days.


🧭 What Comes Next?

Watch for:

  • 📊 Volume spikes or washouts
  • 🐦 Influencer co-signs (or silence)
  • 🧠 Actual dev updates from NEWT
  • 🧻 Rug potential on USELESS

For OKX, this is business as usual: grab the meta, drop the perps, ride the chaos. For traders? Time your exit or prepare to diamond-hand into oblivion.


TL;DR

  • ✅ OKX listed USELESSUSDT and NEWTUSDT perpetuals
  • 💸 USELESS = meme coin, 200% pump energy
  • 🤖 NEWT = AI Layer 2 dev infra
  • 🎯 OKX is betting on hype-driven tokens for summer volume
  • 📉 Watch for short-term spikes, long-term staying power is TBD
