So far @gnosispay usage came exclusively from Europe. This week we launched @USDC cards in Brasil and in addition Apple Pay support! So we can expect this graph to further go up this the right!

Everyone can mint 1 CRC/h - but what is one CRC worth?
Price discovery is slowly happening. Lets take a look how liquidity works in Circles and how thousands of separate markets find a single price 👇 Image
The first thing to understand is that in Circles there are A LOT of different tokens. To be precise: each user (human) and each group have their own distinct CRC token. Right now, we have 136k different tokens - mainly still those from v1 that have not migrated yet. Image
So, in theory there could be 136k different prices - in practice, however, most CRC are priced in one another. When 2 people trust each other they are essentially expressing that they are willing to exchange each other's tokens at a 1:1 rate.

So, as soon as a Circles account is trusted, it essentially already has a price (in someone else's CRC).

Today is the 4th birthday of @aboutcircles!
So far, 126,978 users have minted 365m CRC—each representing 1 hour of human lifetime. But to keep Circles scarce, they are not only issued but also constantly burned at a rate of 7%/year—54m in total—resulting in 310,930,358 Circles 👇 Image
Circles was launched in 2020, and while it initially received a lot of attention, it was still too early. We tried to pioneer a consumer-friendly app e.g. already using @safe for account abstraction, but the immature tech combined with the complexities of the Circles web of trust Image
Image
led to a situation where the app wasn’t working. Most users - despite enthusiasm -gave up before reaching 2,400 CRC (with 24/day, that’s 100 days of minting).
After the initial hype, a period of small and local experimentation followed, mainly in Berlin with around 20 businesses. Image

sDAI on Gnosis has generated over 11% APY in the last year since it launched. Current rate is around ~8%.
A reaction I often get - what are the risks? Is this safe? Where does the yield come from.
So let me explain it in detail 👇 Image
Lets start with a poll - do you hold sDAI on Gnosis? If not, why not?
1) Yes
2) No - Risk too high
3) No - I have better investments
4) No - I don't know what this is/ who it works
First, a small comment on the initial graph: It appears as if the price had some fluctuations. This is just data inaccuracy from CoinGecko. In reality, sDAI had a continuously increasing exchange rate against DAI and DAI itself didn't have any depegs from $1 in the last year.

Call me crazy, but I think a chain's value should come from the utility it provides. Ethereum is fundamentally offering block space. Currently users are paying ~$2.5b per year for this block space and ultimately this is a measurement of the utility Ethereum provides. (1/6)
How can this increase by 10x over the next years? To me the answer can not be that transaction costs increase by 10x - at least part of it needs to be Ethereum simply offering more block space.
Yes, increasing the block limit will put more load on full nodes. But we should (2/6)
not be naive. I also liked it when I could run a full node on the side on my regular laptop but those days are over and this is fine. In a word where running a validator requires ~$70k worth of ETH (and we still have over 800k of them (!!!)) and a couple of transactions.. (3/6)

Ok - starting from zero - I will now set up a trading bot that crawls the internet to get information about recent topics, evaluates them and uses the result to make autonomous trades on prediction markest.
Let's see if I can get it running in <15 min.

GO! Image
Ok, first step: You find general information on: but we don't read, we jump right to the quick starthackathon.olas.network
here are the requirements. I have python, I have docker. Poetry (a python environment management system) can be installed with one command. Image

For anyone in Europe @monerium is by far the fastest, cheapest and most crypto native on and off-ramp. SEPA transfer and minutes later tokens are minted into your wallet 1:1
(1/4)
Once you sign up you can connect your wallet (Metamask or really anything else including @safe and @GetLinen) and a personal IBAN will be generated for you. Now you can do a regular SEPA transfer to this IBAN (from any bank account). As soon as money hits the account... (2/4)
the same amount of EURe tokens will be minted into your wallet. During banking hours this can happen in less than a minute after you initiate the SEPA transfer.
Now you have EURe gnosisscan.io/token/0xcB444e… freely transferrable. (3/4)
