Happy Friday & welcome to our weekly update! Here’s an Abstract (😉) of our activities so far and what you have to look forward to next week
Let’s dive right in!🧵
(Hint: next week will be all about Account Abstraction!)
The world will run on web3 & web3 will run on Gelato
AA transforms blockchain interactions by empowering developers to build advanced, feature-rich dApps while abstracting away complexities for end users, making web3 accessible to everyone- yes, even normies!
Yesterday, we were joined by frens from @avax, @BwareLabs, @MELD_Defi & @HubbleExchange to learn how to build a scalability powerhouse with Avalanche subnets, with Gelato's essential infra services!
Gelato DevRel @donoso_eth provided devs at the #Avalanche@avax summit with a step-by-step guide on creating dApps using Gelato's Web3 Functions! He also showcased the process of minting an @OpenAI-generated Gelato Bot!
Catch the workshop here ⬇️
Gelato co-founder, @gitpusha, participated in @CryptoCanal’s #EthDam panel focused on the Web3 Data Gold Rush and raised some important points around the challenges & opportunities related to data in web3.
Watch to find out what he had to say on privacy⬇️
Renault is accelerating the acceleration of web3 adoption during their inaugural R3NLT mint, @Renault_NFT collaborated with @RenaissanceNFT to overcome user onboarding difficulties by integrating Gelato Relay!
ICYMI: we’ve partnered with @AlchemyPlatform to showcase the combined magic of AI & web3
Get ready for exclusive dev tutorials that will demonstrate the smooth integration of Gelato's Web3 Functions with the APIs of both @OpenAI’s ChatGPT & @StabilityAI's @StableDiffusion!
Join us next week for a Twitter Space with @AlchemyPlatform, where we’ll be diving deep into the synergy of AI & web3 along with some very special guests 👀
Everyone is talking about @Uniswap V4 but what does this update mean for devs?
TL;DR
🔗 Hooks: Customizable pools
☝️ Singleton: All pools are in a single contract for significant gas savings
💸 Native ETH Support
Let's dive in, a 🧵
@Uniswap V3 revolutionized liquidity provision and boosted capital efficiency, however, it came with tradeoffs: limited flexibility & higher gas costs.
Uniswap V4 is designed to enhance customization, enhance flexibility & maximize efficiency, addressing V3's drawbacks
1️⃣ @Uniswap V4 introduces a new concept - "hooks"
These are external contracts that insert custom code at specific points in a pool's lifecycle, paving the way for highly customized AMMs. From pool creation to liquidity adjustments and swaps, opening up limitless opportunities!
This paves the way for a more secure, transparent ecosystem. Devs building with Gelato can build with even more confidence in the integrity & reliability of the underlying infra
Here’s how we empower projects in Avalanche’s ecosystem🧵
By leveraging Gelato Relay @NFTradeOfficial, a multi-chain NFT platform on @avax, is able to match orders and send relay requests to buy NFTs on a user’s behalf- all in real-time!
Gelato also helps facilitate the payment settlement, improving the UX for end users!
@VesperFi on @avax integrates Gelato for decentralized automation in its Saddle metapool!
LPers can enjoy automated transactions & yield optimization, and with Gelato bots taking charge users can claim their weekly yield from the TVL in the Saddle pool, enhancing the overall UX
Build truly serverless #web3 apps using decentralized cloud functions able to access off-chain data & computation without having to trust a centralized party
With Web3 Functions, developers can augment their smart contracts with off-chain data, computation, tx automation, indexing & data storage!
Connect your app to relevant real-world data that enriches the UX & empowers you to create a new generation of powerful web3 use cases
Some of these use cases include:
🎵On-chain music royalty payments
🧮 Automated trading strategies that require access to DEX aggregator endpoints (e.g. @1inch@paraswap)
🔮Resolving prediction market outcomes with real world data
🏅Sports betting
Ethereum’s Shanghai Upgrade is around the corner, but what does it mean for web3?
Let’s break it down 🧵
Back in the “old days” (pre-Merge), Ethereum ran on a proof-of-work model which required a lot of processing power. PoW blockchains are verified by miners who compete to solve a math puzzle, the winner updates the blockchain with the latest block & receives the native token
The decision was made to move from a PoW system to PoS (proof-of-stake), where “validators” would stake their own crypto for the chance to validate new transactions, update the blockchain, and earn a reward.
We can’t onboard the first billion people to web3 if we rely on users paying for gas and never losing their private keys.
Many believe Account Abstraction will be the next big thing for Ethereum & solve this problem
But what is it & why should you care? Let’s break it down🧵
Imagine a world where you can:
- Recover your funds if your private key is lost
- Interact with web3 apps without paying for gas
- Have others manage your funds based on rules that you define straight from your wallet
All of this is what AA promises to do!
But why haven’t today’s wallets adopted these functionalities?
To answer this question we have to understand that there are 2 different types of accounts on Ethereum:
1⃣Externally Owned Accounts - EOAs
2⃣Smart Contract Accounts - SCs
You can now earn auto-compound fees on @Uniswap V3 by utilizing G-UNI DAI/USDC and G-UNI USDC/USDT liquidity as collateral in the @Aaveaave V2 AMM market! 👻🍦
The AMM market was launched on @aaveaave earlier this year. It allows users to use their decentralized exchange LP tokens as collateral on the Aave Protocol and borrow against them while also earning exchange fees 👻✨
