3.TWAP: Time Weighted Average Pricing

•Protects against Price Manipulation

•Needed in Lending Markets @mars_protocol

•Without TWAP, a whale can:
1)place a liquidation bid for OSMO
2)Place big market sell of OSMO to liquidate the borrower
3) Sell OSMO when arbs raise price

4. Interchain Accounts

•Initiate a transaction on Chain A which also executes a command on Chain B

•Condense 2 TXs into 1

•Imagine: 1 click Swap and Stake Button on Osmosis
-Swap OSMO for ATOM
-Stake ATOM on Cosmos Hub

•Endless possibilities @mars_protocol @QuasarFi

5. Stargate Queries

•Enables CosmWasm contracts to query data from chains connected to Osmosis via IBC

•Why is data querying (retrieval) important?

-To build complex Cross Chain DeFi applications, games, etc, querying of data is essential

6. @_IONDAO creating its own IBC Index Token from a basket of IBC tokens

•OSMO will be the first asset

•In a recent poll, the following assets were voted for in this order: ATOM, EVMOS, JUNO, STARS

•Each Security Concept targets different customer types

-Interchain Customer: Newer/Smaller chains relying on security from Cosmos Hub
