1) Last month a #DeFi project called @pendulum_chain made history in the Polkadot ecosystem.

It completed its parachain crowdloan while reaching its hard cap of 300k $DOT in three minutes.

What makes this project so impressive that it broke this record in a bear market? 🧵👇
2) The ''Foreign exchange market'' is one of the biggest industries on the planet.

Fiat currencies (euro, dollar, yen,...) are exchanged on a daily basis after all.

The Forex market however is quite challenging due to certain flaws in today's market.
3) If we could move this industry to the blockchain, Forex would benefit from:

• Faster transaction speeds.
• Lower transaction fees.
• More security.
• Full transparency.

And that's exactly what #pendulum is doing. Bringing the forex markets to the blockchain.

1/ I've been trying to understand more about the #LightningNetwork from a user experience point of view, as I see many enthusiasts openly advocating the tool as a real scaling solution while using #BTC as money for everyday life — trying to get new users on board.
2/ I have a keen interest in using decentralized money for everyday activities, and when I talk to people who are looking for the same (or living it in practice), their experiences involving lightning are usually pretty negative.

Among the negative reports I see, mainly ⬇️
3/
> Custody;
> Theoretical vulnerabilities;
> Dependence on intermediaries for routing and tendency to centralization;
> "Voucher" system;
> Payments that are not completed;
> Lack of routes between channels;
> Higher fees than expected;
> Lack of liquidity for higher values;

1/ With the Amplitude Democratization rollout around the corner, let's revisit one of the flagship dApps on Amplitude & @pendulum_chain; Spacewalk 🌌

In short; Spacewalk will connect @StellarOrg with #DotSama & beyond

Let's explore further!🧵 medium.com/pendulum-chain…
2/ Spacewalk will enable Amplitude & @Pendulum_chain to utilize the multitude of fiat stable tokens on the Stellar blockchain & help build the fiat DeFi future.

Spacewalk is the first bridge between #Stellar and DotSama, which opens up a flow of tokens between networks.
3/ How does Spacewalk work?

Any parachain can easily implement the Spacewalk #Substrate pallet, giving more utility to tokens in both ecosystems. This opens up Stellar tokens to be used in applications and services across #DotSama and vice versa.

Imagine the possibilities 💡

Hey #Stellar community!

I would like to launch a, hopefully, fun social experiment: #StellarSpread!

The idea is that I will send 3 people 100 $XLM each. These 3 people should then split the amount among 1-3 people they trust to do the same. Each forming their own "chain". Image
2/
We will keep track of the 3 chains to see which one is the most "infectious". Every person involved should pick people who they think will do a good job in spreading the #Stellarspread further!

Who is in and wants to help #StellarSpread by being one of the first "infectees"?
3/ Fun fact: 10 people spreading this to 3 other people, will lead to 177,000 people taking part in this experiment!

We'll keep track of the spread through a forms + google spreadsheet (🤓). Any help in automation, visualization is welcome!

1/ $AQUA liquidity rewards for market makers launched 72 hours ago. Since then the trading volume on #Stellar Decentralized Exchange has grown 10x.

Very satisfied with the results so far.
And we have just doubled the $AQUA rewards, running at 4M AQUA/day on the chosen markets!
2/ Great to see this progress in such a short space of time. With increased liquidity, users can now take advantage of CEX style trading directly inside Stellar's Decentralized Exchange.

Take a look at these graphs and see for yourself!👀👇

A lot is happening on the #Stellar network. Let me walk you trough some of the biggest developments. In this thread i'll cover:

🚀Turing complete smartcontracts
🚀#DeFi / #SmartDefi
🚀Liquidity pools
🚀Claimable balances
🚀Clawbackable assets
🚀#CDBC's
🚀Impact on $XLM

1/9
2. Let’s start with what what was already there.

#Stellar is made for interoperable payments and has an on-chain #DEX. Its consensus mechanism is similar to the Internet, making it:

✅Fast
✅Cheap
✅Scalable
✅Regulatory friendly

3. Tss
#Stellar uses operations and multi-sig to offer basic smart contract functionality. It didn’t have turing complete smart contracts like #Ethereum though.

With the new 2nd layer “TSS protocol", #Stellar now has full blown smart-contracts.

"What’s the intrinsic value of $XLM? And what drives the price?" One of the most common questions from newcomers to #Stellar ecosystem.
A short answer – $XLM price reflects the locked value. There are other factors, but this one is the most important.
And here is why:

🧵1/10
Stellar Network relies on the account reserve requirements to prevent ledger spam. Every account must contain at least 1XLM to exist on the network. Currently there are about 5 million accounts which effectively means that 5 million XLM are locked on the ledger.

2/10
But reserve requirements are not only for accounts. Each trustline (a connection allows an account to hold some custom token) also requires a base reserve – 0.5XLM. So if an account holds, say, some USDC, EURT, and ABTC tokens, additional 1.5XLM are frozen on the balance.

A few tweets about the significance of P2P payments in #cryptocurrency and why interoperability with traditional financial rails is key to reach mass adoption.
In the early days, the #bitcoin narrative evolved around P2P payments. We needed a digital equivalent of cash.
This was inspired by the role of banks in the 2008 financial crisis.

IF #BTC would become the currency of the internet, as a result it should be valuable.
Since then, this has changed into a #HODL and #BTC = #Gold narrative. Scarcity brings value.

Where in the early days people wanted to spend #BTC, this has become quite rare. Why is that? There are a couple of reasons.

1. ♥Ethereum is still the most actively developed Blockchain protocol, followed by #Cardano and #Bitcoin ;

♦Multi-chain protocols like #Polkadot , #Cosmos and #Avalanche are seeing a consistent rise in core development and developer contribution.
2. ♦In the year of its public launch, decentralized file storage project #Filecoin jumped straight into the top 5 of most actively developed projects;

#Ethereum killers #Tron, #EOS, #Komodo, and #Qtum are seeing a decrease in core development metrics;
3. #DeFi protocols took the space by storm with #Ethereum being the choice of the underlying blockchain and smart contracts platform. They saw an increase in core development and developer contribution activity over the year which was all open sourced.

1/x A thread on why this is big.

Since the #Bitcoin White-paper, we have unfortunately not seen widespread use of a "p2p electronic cash system" yet.

In part this is due to the inefficient interaction of #BTC with FIAT:

↔️ If I want to pay in BTC, but my friends USD i'm stuck.
#Stellar solves this by allowing for easy tokenization of assets on 1 interoperable network. This allows atomic transaction like:

- Paying $XLM while my friend receives $USD
- Paying $USD while my friend receives $EUR
- Paying tokenized $BTC while my friend receives $USD
This means you can pay $XLM or any other asset, while your friend receives FIAT in his bank account in seconds.

Here is an example of how @tempo_eu and @cowrie_exchange facilitate transaction from $EUR to $Naira.

Fractal! 🔥

Price ranged 1 whole year the same way & did and this week broke to the upside breaking both horizontal and trendline resistance.

High probability swing trade.

Great opportunity for those that have missed out on #ZIL #Zilliqa 👊

#XLM #Stellar Image
Looking at D1 that obvious Block that was holding us down in a range has fallen and all the range highs all alike.

Price has shown a continuation afterward.

Longing the retest here ✅

#XLM #Stellar Image

This is where I'll be looking to buy at 955

This trade has already paid out for me once big time so why not try it again? 😉😎

#XLM #Lumen Image
did exactly what I wanted it to do.

While many are giving up on this cause "it takes too long" I'm in #XLM and expecting in to go pretty high from here.

Very good looking HTF structure. Swing long

#Stellar #Lumen Image
One of these days this is going to pump big time and then you'll see it being shilled left and right.

Be there before it does. It's inevitable 😎
