What’s the point of collecting points?
@Celo shows us how it’s being done at #CeloGather & provides a fresh take on collecting points to engage participants on their community event - onchain.
The points, #CeloC, are living on the Celo blockchain and can be redeemed into swag!
Happy 6th birthday Solana fam.
They said quit. The builders stayed.
They said it's dead. The code persisted.
They said move on. The network's never been stronger.
Just one more hard quarter.
Hey, @grok if I gave you $1,000 today and you only had to invest in 1 asset which asset would you choose to get maximum returns and estimate how much you will have after 10 years
It hasn’t even been a year since @Celo became an L2 and it is already shipping real usage: mobile-first payments, stablecoins, and actual users in LatAm & Africa.
> DAUs at ATHs. $4B stablecoin volume a month.
> Close to ATH active wallets
> Close to ATH in transactions count
> Now tokenomics talks are shifting to buybacks, fee tiers, and real value capture and is finally aligned with usage.
@minipay is pushing toward 1M activations(Also dont forget the incentives on holding stables 8%/month)
Fundamentals are compounding.

Bitcoin will have short term volatility, but long term resilience.
The perfect asset for young people to protect their purchasing power over their lifetime.
16 years ago today you could buy 1,309 BTC for $1.
This is the first recorded dollar valuation of Bitcoin, calculated by electricity cost to mine Bitcoin at the time.
The people crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.
The fact is $CELO token is not reflective of the chain performance.
Because of fee abstraction, there is no much utilization of the native token. And more utilization of stables.
Just like stocks long term market profitability will reflect. But in the short term market sentiment is what is driving this price action.
For now the token is oversold. If there’s way of integrating $CELO into the core activities, there’ll be a reason to hold.
Special moment today #token2049 sharing the stage with my co-founder and dear friend @marek_ to talk about our shared passions - we do a lot of talks but can't remember the last time we did one together, so much fun - thanks @token2049 for hosting 🤍
Ethereum just broke a record most people don’t know about.
It became the fastest major asset in history to hit a $500B market cap.
$ETH - 5.8 years.
$AAPL - 35 years.
$BTC - 12 years.
Crypto is the fastest growing asset class in history.
