Breaking news: Sky Protocol’s USDS stablecoin is now live on Solana — bringing crypto’s third largest stablecoin to Solana’s growing DeFi ecosystem, powered by Wormhole 🧵
Sky (formerly MakerDAO) now issues their USDS stablecoin on Solana as an SPL token.

USDS was previously issued as DAI. Over $4.7 billion USDS and DAI have already been issued across other blockchains as of Nov. 15th, according to @artemis_xyz.

USDS joins USDt (@Tether_to), USDC (@Circle), PYUSD (@PayPal), and USDP (@Paxos) amongst others on Solana — contributing to $3.8 billion in stablecoins issued on the network as of Nov. 1st.Image
On day one, USDS will have strong support throughout the Solana ecosystem, including from @JupiterExchange, @MeteoraAG, @orca_so, @DriftProtocol, @KaminoFinance, @jito_sol, @Phantom, @solflare_wallet, @save_finance, @ChronicleLabs, and @PythNetwork. Image

The energy sector is ripe for disruption.

Power grid infrastructure is outdated, energy demand is rising, and the need for a clean energy shift is urgent.

Renewables like solar are getting cheaper, but their distributed nature challenges the existing grid, which is built for centralized energy production.

Crypto can help by incentivizing renewable energy build-out, altering consumer behavior, coordinating across distributed energy sources, supporting P2P energy trading, and providing an open data layer. 🧵Image

Fuse is a full-stack Web2 renewable energy business that is now building @projectzero2050, a decentralized renewable energy network powered by Solana. 

With $12M in recent funding led by @multicoincap, Project Zero aims to use token incentives to drive the installation of distributed energy sources and shift consumption patterns. When energy costs rise, consumers are rewarded for using less, and vice versa—turning everyone into a mini energy trader. 

Learn more about @FuseEnergyHQ and Project Zero from its Breakpoint announcement:
Powerledger offers a platform for tracking, tracing, and trading renewable energy — and reported that a P2P solar energy trading pilot with Uttar Pradesh saw prices drop 43% below retail tariffs and spurred legislative changes. 

It’s migrating from its own SVM fork to Solana mainnet. Hear from @PowerLedger_io at Breakpoint:

gm, as we prepare for Breakpoint, let’s look back on an August filled with shipping 🚢

From prediction markets to global payments, the Solana ecosystem didn’t miss a beat.

Curious what you might’ve missed? We’ve got you covered. 🧵 Image
Drift launched prediction markets platform BET.

BET differentiates from existing prediction markets with its capital-efficient design – and users can trade with any collateral supported by @DriftProtocol, not just USDC.
At the Global Fintech Fest, @NandanNilekani and @imsiddshetty live demo’d a money transfer on the Finternet that settled on Solana.

The Finternet is a new vision for global finance – one built by tokenizing any asset over a unified ledger. It is being developed by the team behind the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) in India, which does over $240 billion in payments volume every month.

Learn more and apply for a grant up to $10k to help build the Finternet using Solana: earn.superteam.fun/grants/fintern…

Today, the Solana Radar Hackathon officially kicks off!

So it’s the perfect time to share ideas for innovative startups to build on Solana.

What potential opportunities are out there? 🧵 Image
DePIN.

Energy infrastructure is changing: Governments are providing 100s of billions to accelerate the shift to green energy.

There's an opportunity to build an optimized energy business via token incentives:
> Earn for installing valuable energy hardware (e.g., solar panels, batteries)
> Earn for adjusting energy consumption behavior
> Turn each homeowner into a mini "energy trader”Image
PayFi and Commerce.

1️⃣ Buy Now, Pay Never?

Imagine financing purchases by staking yielding assets. You retain the principal, while yield covers payments.

Founders like @soleconomist have started to ideate on solutions using LSTs via @sanctumso.

PayPal's PYUSD stablecoin recently surpassed a $1 billion market cap!

It has increased by 271% since its launch on Solana, with Solana PYUSD accounting for 88% of that growth.

Why did PayPal choose to build on Solana and what’s driving PYUSD adoption? 🧵 Image
For over two decades, PayPal has strived to provide people with access to fast, cheap, and global payments.

This commitment led the company to pioneer online payments, and now, PayPal’s looking to what it believes is the next generation of digital payments: onchain payments.

Onchain payments offer several advantages over traditional payment systems, including faster settlement, lower costs, and programmability.Image
In August 2023, PayPal launched PYUSD on Ethereum. PYUSD is issued by @Paxos, which is regulated by the NYDFS. The stablecoin is backed by 100% high-quality liquid assets and redeemable 1:1 with U.S. dollars. Image

Today, we connect Solana to the entire internet.

Vote, Donate, Mint, Swap, Pay — use Solana, everywhere.
Meet blinks (blockchain links) – a new primitive that transforms onchain actions into shareable links.

Anywhere you can share a link on the internet, you can initiate Solana actions (even on X!). Image
Blinks bring Solana Actions to any website or app.

Solana Actions are APIs that return Solana transactions, making it simple to sign & send using:

→ Native app & mobile buttons
→ Scannable QR codes
→ Sharable blinks
