Is there more to the superchain than base?

Anyone both on warpcast and going to be at accelerate ?

did the increase in gas price on ethereum L1 have anything to do with pectra or just a coincidence?

Stablecoin transaction volumes hit $1.82 trillion last month, a record high.

And organic, non-speculative uses appear to be growing, even as crypto trading volume fluctuates.

Still, it’s easy to underestimate the promise of stablecoins. 

So we’ve rounded up a quickstart guide for understanding stablecoins — from what’s *not* a stablecoin to reimagining money from first principles.

While this is cool raw transfers has to be one of the least legitimate metrics to show stablecoin growth.

Euler v2 is live. 

Euler v1 was tailored to a particular use-case. Euler v2 builds on that, evolving into a meta-lending platform capable of supporting limitless onchain credit possibilities.

I'm usually a little more allergic to 'tokenomics' than the average DeFi aficionado, but I am interested to see if Euler leans in that direction to bootstrap liquidity.

I'm very interested to see how the ETH based yields change on pendle after the market digests the recent Eigen drop.

Euler V2 launch, Matic -> POL migration, Kamino V2 announcement, Trump DeFi on Aave.

Lots of things happening

Something to be said that Trump picked both Aave and Ethereum to launch his protocol. 🤔

1:1 conversions for BTC:cbBTC which you can send from coinbase to solana, ethereum, base, etc. would be amazing actually.

So many defi protocols have poor documentation. I think a lot of this can be solved with grants to add / amend documentation. surprised we aren't seeing this yet though

Humpy's (ongoing/alleged) governance capture of #comp is different than it was for 

Balancer / SushiSwap. Lending protocol governance capture has many more avenues for a catastrophic outcome for protocol *users* than an amm protocol, especially unintentional ones.

Bitcoin

Does anyone have any bitcoin multisig recommendations?

What’s a decent frontend for Ajna on polygon?
