2/ Users can interact with the protocol as a borrower, lender, or liquidity provider (LP).

LPs are the most important as they capitalize liquidity pools with cTokens to act as the counterparty to all other lenders and borrowers.

In turn, they are rewarded with liquidity fees. Diagram for interactions th...

1/ Liquid tokens have thousands of buyers and sellers, but NFT transactions requires a single buyer/seller––pointing to lower liquidity.

To solve this issue, projects focused on the financialization of NFTs are attempting to make NFTs as fungible (and liquid) as possible. NFT Financialization Stack
2/ The top four NFT liquidity protocols - @NFTX_, @NiftyMuseum, @uniclyNFT, and @fractional_art hold nearly $80M in combined TVL.

Unicly currently possesses the greatest market share with 43% of the total value locked.

NFTX leads NFT20 among liquidity pool protocols. The NFT Market Liquidity In...
3/ While both protocols have been live for over a year, @NFTX_'s V2 upgrade has already shown to be quite successful in accruing NFTs.

Conversely, @NiftyMuseum possesses more NFTs in its liquidity pools, however, these NFTs on average tend to be less valuable. NFTX Continues to gain more...

1/ In the run up to @ethereum's Beacon Chain merge, there has been increased discussion around the apparent merits or pitfalls of liquid $ETH staking.

With roughly 20% of all staked Ether sitting in liquid pools and even more staked via CEXs, the debate is warranted. ETH2 liquid staking in pools
2/ The percentage of $ETH staked to the circulating supply is ~7% currently, far from the 50%+ seen on chains like @Polkadot, @solana, and @cosmos.

In absolute terms, total staked Ether is valued at approximately $34B, over $7B of which is in staking pools like @LidoFinance. staking - top layer 1 blockchains
3/ The adoption of decentralized $ETH staking pools has been remarkable.

Beyond @LidoFinance's 88% liquid staking ETH market share, @stakedTokens and @ankr's StakeFi comprise 7.5% of the remaining market. Eth2 liquid staking balances

1/ Listing assets across a variety of exchanges is time-consuming, and purchasing NFTs of the same collection from a variety of exchanges has been tedious, until now.

@genie_xyz seeks to solve this as an NFT aggregator, or as the team describes it, “The Metaverse’s Aggregator”.
2/ @genie_xyz offers two features, Genie Swap and Genie List.

Genie Swap enables anyone to buy or sell multiple NFTs across a variety of marketplaces in a single transaction.

Genie List enables users to batch list NFTs on a variety of marketplaces within the same transaction. Batch swap your NFTs across marketplaces
3/ To date, @genie_xyz has facilitated over 6,500 ETH (~$26M) in Swap volume, notable considering the protocol experienced significant volume while in beta.

Perhaps more interestingly is that Genie’s impressive swap volume comes from under 2,000 swaps. Genie has facilitated over 6500 ETH in swap volume
