ETH+ on fire, Jobs, Epoch Island, The Defiant
Well, after the BIG NEWZ of last week — has it sunk in yet? There are a few ideas floating around for funding so I think we’ll see quite a few applications, which will be great to follow.
This week sees PaRtNeRsHiPz — more later!
- Memory lane
- TVL
- PaRtNeRsHiPs
- A fair sized AOB
Memory lane
2021 saw the first advert for Country Director — Mexico, as well as many more positions.
Next month we’ll be into the first Medium articles from 2021— woah.
2022 gave us 480k users
And 2nd spot in the Android app rankings for finance. Ugly Cash still in stealth mode, but some positive noises coming out of there.
2023 — and some progress on all clear
as well as some truly amazing transaction stats
Sadly Venmo is still going, but not internationally ;-) It’s easy to forget that an App in Venezuela was transacting more than localbitcoins globally — and here probably more than at the peak. If that’s not product market fit for ‘crypto’ I don’t know what is. People want ‘money’ not erratic tokens.
TVL
A good week for ETH+, not so for hyUSD however stay tuned, kids.
ETH+ now at $7.3M TVL — wow. And we’re just getting started. Might be something to do with Taylor Swift
I’ve slipped in a PaRtNeRsHiP — be sure to collect them all!
We’re getting into the tasty level of rewards now — wen $1M?
If you’ve staked on eUSD for 1 year, you’ve had a haircut and are up 6.78% on the deal.

PaRtNeRsHiPz
Ok so we already have the ETH+ highest rate through 0xconcentrator, but wait, there’s more!
Looking good on Base for eUSD here.
Next is Epoch Island :
That’s right — potentially $8.5M hyUSD
Reserve now owns the second most veSDT
So more boosting. Reserve now has a significant position in DeFi liquidity boosts. Phase 1 is moving along nicely.
AOB
Plenty going on here, so get ready.
ETH Denver — of course.
Register.app got a UI update- it’s great
Maybe even one day we’ll get each token rating from BlueChip. There’s a proposal to change out the USDT in eUSD
Nevin is explaining Confusion Capital
Reserve is hiring
TheDefiant had a podcast with Thomas
I wonder if the prompt was ‘basket of currencies’.
Ever wondered about the use-case argument for fintech in LATAM? Great write up and analysis of someone who created a fintech app but has given up on it and I think may be talking to Gabo as we read…
An extract from this — delivering real value — how about zero cost on ramp, zero cost off ramp and zero cost remittances.
Ok — so RWA — FortunaFi are projecting stablecoin madness
Lastly, Larry unfortunately got phished — so be VERY careful even with Rabby
224k views — woah.
Flamingo is continuing with his (it’s?) great series of mini interviews
And…… it’s gone.
NO IT ISN’T — HOLD THE FRONT PAGE
