Remember how you used to pay those pesky gas fees 💸 and wait absurd times ⏳ when moving from an exchange to #DeFi? This all changes now with minuscule fees and rapid transfers!
(2/6)
This bridge🌉now enables fast and low-cost transfers between #Bitfinex & #DeversiFi meaning that you can move @Tether_to tokens ($USDt) seamlessly between the two platforms, without ever touching #Layer1#Ethereum! And what's more, we’ll be adding more #ERC20 tokens soon!
(3/6)
Why? 🤔 #CEXs are an entry point into cryptocurrency for many users and this new bridge will help thousands more access #DeFi, by giving users from both exchanges access to the opportunities on each platform 🤝

How will this work with our other bridge to @0xPolygon?
This new bridge will serve as a highway between #Polygon and Bitfinex 🛣️ This means users can seamlessly move funds from the Polygon to #Bitfinex; via #DeversiFi, without ever paying expensive on-chain gas costs.

#CEXs are often the place users go to buy their first #cryptocurrency 🪙
However, in order to use them, you must create an account on their website and send your money to them trusting that they will (hopefully🤞) send it back when you’re finished 😅
#DEXs exist on multiple blockchains, but the most popular ones are built on #Ethereum. Instead of creating an account to use them, you connect existing Ethereum wallets (such as @MetaMask) and then start making trades! 🙌
To get started, you will need to stake your $DVF to receive xDVF, and unlock your voting power. From here you will be able to vote on the “big stuff” and the “small stuff” (2/4)
By “big stuff” we mean major changes to the token and protocol such as:
We have just launched the first ever #Layer2 bridge to @0xPolygon but what does this mean for you?🤔
The bridge 🌉 enables fast, gas-free and frictionless deposits & withdrawals between the two platforms whilst also increasing liquidity across both ecosystems
As one of the first layer 2 DEXs to be operating on mainnet, we would like to share some of our learning points from the past 9 months, as well as our expectations & thoughts on L2 for the coming year
TLDR, layer 2 is ready to go supernova 🚀
Fragmentation - We originally assumed that most apps would congregate on one L2. What we are actually seeing is apps launching on multiple L2s & L1s. This trend will continue as different scaling solutions offer different pros & cons. There is likely to be no 'winner takes all'
Bridges - Within 12 months it is likely that most people will ever need to touch L1 Ethereum for their everyday needs. Bridges between different L2 apps (both on the same rollup and different rollups) as well as CEX <> L2 bridges will be the norm.
Due to problematic gas prices, DeversiFi is trialling a NEC-based GAS-rebate program.
The first 100 wallets to register (no KYC) will be airdropped 75 & a further 75 for depositing.
This marks the first dapp to effectively allow cost-free entry w/ gas-free trading.
…
Why are we doing this?
We are in the midst of a GAS crisis, making Ethereum exceedingly prohibitive/unattractive for many users, both old and more importantly new, ultimately impacting adoption of #DeFi.
This initiative is an attempt to solve this issue.
…
In future, we'll need to work with others to speed up L2 composability ensuring ETH remains a cost-efficient & attractive chain to use.
This'll only become more important as, despite these friction points, ETH adoption continues to grow & more exciting dapps are built.
