1/ Feel like I need to do a little Dani thread to explain what is $ICE @PopsicleFinance to give a hint of what we want for the future and what we have already to realise it.
2/ Popsicle is the first project I’ve ever launched and comes from a fairly simple idea: at the time there was nobody doing any cross-chain yield farming or LPing. Communities where pretty much segregated to their own chains and capital flows

Liquidity is the backbone of DeFi and we built @PopsicleFinance to make it simple for our users to manage and profit off of it. Here are some lessons we’ve learned and where we’re heading.
2/
We’ve launched two @PopsicleFinance products in the last 12 months: Sorbetto Fragola, a Uniswap v3 optimizer and Sorbetto Limone, a cross-DEX LP manager that provides leverage for LPers.

2022 is shaping up to be one of the most turbulent years for crypto and especially for DeFi.
Optimism across crypto has evaporated and trust is at an all-time low.
Despite all the chaos, $MIM has shown huge resiliency and has proven that our product works.
A 🧵 on $MIM👇🏻
2/
The price of the $MIM stablecoin is decided by the market and, most of the time, fluctuates slightly around its natural $1 peg.
The main $MIM market is currently the MIM-3crv pool on Curve finance, where $MIM is priced against 3crv tokens i.e $DAI, $USDC and $USDT.

1/ The launch of the yvDAI market is the beginning of something completely new, a radical shift of focus coming after many weeks of reflection. Taking a step back from social media has helped me taking a closer look into our products
2/ working on designing and building ones that are ready for the next phase of crypto: stabilisation . TVL has become a vanity metric and I've decided to let it be, the focus of every entrepreneur has to be on creating profit for the protocol and maximise the potential.

1/ The beginning of a new era of Leveraged Stablecoin Yield Farming is about to begin. Worked hard in the last weeks while everyone was thinking 'Dani is over' 'Them projects are dead' to deliver something that truly changes the game for the Frog
2/ So far all the good deals have been taken by whales, Stable Leveraged cauldrons especially, allowing them to get even more yield out of their massive amount of cash sitting. The new focus of my development is a strong direction towards the core values that brought me here

“So we made it all the way here” It has been a couple of hard months for me seeing all the work I have been doing for years has been getting ripped off by greed, FUD, misinformation and constant social/financial attacks across the board.
I have came to build to DeFi with one of the strongest motivations in the space, driven by the naive dream that people are capable of cooperating and that financial access should be a given, not a luxury.

1/ Wonderland experiment is coming to an end. It is clear from the vote that the community is divided. The core and heart of Wonderland is still the community. If we cannot find agreement on wether to continue or not, it means that we failed.
2/ The duty of the Team is to enact the will of the token holders. As the vote is so close to 50/50 there is only one path forward, it is to reimburse / unwind who does not feel be part of Wonderland and find a new home for who feels attached & inline with the Frog Nation Vision.

1/ Today allegations about our team member @0xSifu will circulate. I want everyone to know that I was aware of this and decided that the past of an individual doesn’t determine their future. I choose to value the time we spent together without knowing his past more than anything.
2/ Many people in the world are judged by their early mistakes, this comes prevalent into the life of ex inmates that can’t get access to financial services after being felons.

For $ 13,000, British Brendon Grimshaw buys a small uninhabited island in the Seychelles and moves there forever. He is under forty, he quits his job as a newspaper editor and starts a new life!

1/ Is about $TIME to make changes in Wonderland to keep up with the expectations of our DAO members and all the incredible community that has been created around our project. A Thread of what is going to happen this week and how the future of this project looks like:
2/ There has been confusion about $TIME token price action with the narrative of ‘Is Going Down’ becoming more and more prevalent by fudsters. The wonderland team has been working on education but this sometimes is not enough to reach all our community considered how big it is.

1/ A little bit of context on this idea about a PSM for $MIM with $UST . Let’s start on the purpose of a PSM or Peg Stability Module. A Thread: 👇
2/ PSM is designed as a smart contract that allows always a 1:1 swap between two stablecoins and is usually implemented between a non-fiat backed stable and a centralised fiat backed one ( DAI-USDC example ) . The idea is to create a swap bath in case of depeg that can naturally

1/ Recently many Friends have been reaching out about my Charitable efforts around the world asking how they could contribute. The general agreement is that many want to donate to take action where injustice is prevalent, where people don't have opportunities to stand up...
2/ But we are missing an organisation that is transparent and direct. After multiple requests to make something about it i decided to create "The Pond" a multisign Gnosis Vault devoted to commit funds to Charity and take the action in our hands, as the Frog Nation.

1/ So is finally time to reveal the strategy for what i call new2pool and the future of Decentralised Stablecoin liquidity. A Thread about $TERRA $UST and $MIM . A partnership Between @anchor_protocol 🤝 @MIM_Spell 👇👇
2/ Liquidity of $UST on Ethereum is currently not as large as it could be, even tho volumes on $UST curve pools on both Uniswap V3 and @CurveFinance are sizable and very relevant. This shows appetite for UST and usage of the stablecoin across more than Terra/Luna/Solana
