Most stupid take of the month (and there have been a bunch).
Crypto is extremely frictionless compared to Tradfi and that's all you would care about. Sure, custody safety is also important, but you can have both, we all feel comfy sitting in USDC or USDP.
Also liquidity? Idk man, some tickers on IBKR you could punch through the ob with 6 figs, meanwhile on crypto any catwifsock meme has 7 figs full range liquidity
IT IS true that until now trading indexes on perp dexes didn't really get a lot of traction (although there have been months where forex pairs were a consistent part of the volume on Gains in the last years).
But that's also because the userbase is biased towards picking winners

Too many exciting things happening rn, but overall a lot of new money legos popping up here and there.
I'll try to keep this thread up-to-date with the new ones that will come in the next months.
If I'm forgetting something, please let me know.
1.
Newly arrived @OndoFinance + @FluxDeFi
Ondo tokenizes short-term US-T bills
Flux is the money market for it.
Combining both, you can get leveraged exposure to US-T bills on-chain*
@BackedFi is also bringing tokenized securities (namely SPX for now) on the table.

Stablecoin Enciclopedia:
In the light of TC facts and the fallout discussions on CT about the alternatives to the most common stablecoins, this thread will try to treat as many stablecoins as possible, NOT ONLY ON MAINNET.
If i forgot some, let me know.

The stablecoin "unicorn" is:
> Liquid
> Reliable
> Redeemable
> Decentralized / Censorship-resistent
> Scalable
The perfect stablecoin doesn't exist, each implies a tradeoff between such values.

Since @ASvanevik publicly invited everyone to try the nansen demo version promising free clout and candies for the participants, here i am.
I'm thinking there could be a cooking merge / eth 2.0 trend, so i've looked for informations about this.
1/
How?
First of all, i've drafted a list of tokens potentially related to eth 2.0 staking (there are also possible side-plays, like $ETC, $MATIC - which i'm not currently looking for via @nansen_ai).
One of the juiciest i've found is $SWISE, from @stakewise_io (63k+ ETH staked)

I was doing some research about $KAVA $USDX after reading an interesting thread:
$USDX is the CDP (DAI-like) of Kava, an IBC enabled platform.
2/9
From my researches (rather quick tbf, but i've seen they matches what people in @kava_platform are saying), $USDX was minted basically for free against $UST, allowing some users to essentially arb by using 0$ collateral.

A list about current HOT L1 situations:
👇
$EGLD
Apparently tonight an exploit allowed someone to came into possession (new minting?) of over 1.6m $EGLD on Maiar Exchange
Part of those tokens were immediatly dumping sinking the EGLD price on Maiar, and the dex has since been stopped. Still trading at 70$ on cexes

So, @coinbase recently announced in their blog they're evaluating 50 assets for listing on their platforms.
The assets indicated in the blog post are very different one to another.
Here is a quick overview on each of them: i'll stick to 1 post/project
It'll be long thread
2/45
I'll take into consideration the coins by mcap, despite Coinbase saying they'll not consider that
I'm NOT CONSIDERING TOKENOMICS
I'll also have a particular regard to #NFTs, due to their recent interest with @Coinbase_NFT and their recent cooperation with @BoredApeYC $APE
In most cases, you just need to buy some $ATOM, delegate/stake them on a validator and enjoy the airdrops.
So, how can you get them and what if you don't want to risk on $ATOM price going down but still want the airdrops?
2. How to qualify for $ATOM airdrops?
2. RMRK is the governance token of RMRK.app a nextgen NFT platform.
Sure, every protocol claims to be nextgen especially when it comes to NFTs, but in this case it's not an overstatement to say that RMRK is bringing the most imp innovation since erc1559 creation.
