Rare W from Ethereum Foundation

Is launching as a shared security network the best route for new teams building Decentralized Apps (DApps)? The Head of Business at Luganodes, nima.eth, elaborated on how shared security frameworks such as Symbiotic make it easier and more efficient for DApps to launch.

ICYMI: We're on the verge of DeFi season. The US is embracing DeFi, and guess what? All the top DeFi platforms are powered by Chainlink. We are about to see AAVE, MKR, SKY, and the HyperEVM thriving, which translates into higher TVS for CL and stronger fundamentals for LINK.

Some of the DeFi assets that I've been accumulating before the imminent DeFi season: AAVE (DeFi giant) MKR (DeFi Holdings Company) SKY (MakerDAO's largest holding) HYPE (Most profitable DeFi app) LINK (DeFi enabler)

Cycle's villain or savior? Alienating innovators or saving the ecosystem from mass extraction?

For shared security to succeed, slashing can't be centralized. Instead, it requires decentralized arbitration. This is why Symbiotic stands out from competitors. Vault-level slashing with customizable resolvers for decentralized arbitration, and no concentration of power.

vibecoding is the future

Crypto scammers are making up to $500K per month via paid shills. This is the only industry where incentives are skewed towards extracting instead of building, and that’s a big problem.

Some teams make noise; Symbiotic ships. Onboarded cap: It'll use Symbiotic for its Type lll Stablecoin (slashing) Onboarded Spark: It'll use Symbiotic for SPK native staking. Launched Symbiotic Relay, becoming the #1 staking alternative. All in 3 weeks.

Most people misread Chainlink's initial wave of excitement as the project's lifecycle. Truth be told, that was only speculation, but now we're starting to see real adoption of every single Chainlink product. Now, having the fundamentals, you think $LINK won't make a new ATH?

The crazy part is that Aave still has a lot of room growth. Chainlink is already live on many Top 10 chains that Aave isn't live, or dominant, on yet. As soon as this changes, and I would bet it will, we'll see Aave having more deposits than many Top 50 US Banks.

The ideal data infrastructure for Central Limit Order Books (CLOBs) should be designed for high performance, low latency, reliability to handle real-time trading data, and tailored for the system's needs. If it sounds familiar, it's not a coincidence. More on this soon.

What are the must-follow CT accounts to stay up to date with CLOBs?

Once again I've managed to sideline myself from generational wealth.

Not a lot of people is talking about this, but the GENIUS act will make Proof-of-Reserves a requirement for fiat-backed stablecoins, which are expected to grow to $3T. Chainlink isn't only powering all of DeFi via its DON, but also silently scaling the rest of its products.

This is a prime example of how impactful proper curation can be for a DeFi protocol. 10/10 times, simplicity and proper curation in lending protocols will beat VC money, yap leaderboards, and airdrop campaigns in the long term. Aave's growth keeps proving it.

Study Symbiotic's shared security and why major protocols keep migrating to its ecosystem. Thank me later.

Weekend effort adds up more than people think. Make some time and work your ass for your goals.
