Wallstreet has definitely not priced in @Base. Skin in the game - the only stock I'm in is Coinbase. Average rev in Q1 = $9,773,882.33

It's the perfect time (finally) to build crypto enabled financial tools for retail imo: 1. DeFi protocols are more resilient -> You can have confidence in Aave/Morpho/DAI/Uni (but risk is never 0!) 2. Liquidity on fast/cheap chains -> sDAI on L2's in a few weeks, CCTP, etc.

Looking for a part time video + content creator in SF that's able to film 1/2 times a week at the Utopia office. You'll grow our consumer brand from 0 -> 1. We're looking at filming our journey building a transparent fintech/crypto consumer brand from the ground up. Will send 1ETH if you can refer someone great!

The opportunity for stablecoins for borderless payments can be summarized in one sentence: Countries struggle to coordinate their real-time payment networks.

Why isn't there a USDT/TRON -> EVM bridge??? The only USDT/TRON -> USDT/EVM bridge that I see is All Bridge (which got hacked in April 2023) with very limited liquidity onchain. The best "bridge" right now for USDT/TRON liquidity are the offshore CEX's themselves: Binance / Kucoin / Bybit / OKX, which makes sense.

Circle's CCTP integrating with SOL is going to one of the biggest catalysts for stablecoin payment applications taking off. SOL USDC <> EVM USDC now has a safe, native bridge, almost at 0 cost (given that Circle only just charges gas). With 4844 + SOL's already cheap fees, apps can sponsor gas sustainably.

Any Canadians who work in the US that transfer money between their US <> CAD bank accounts frequently? If so, would love to chat :) We built a pretty fast way (~30 minutes) to transfer funds between your bank accounts using /utopia :)

"Digital Dollars" is much better framing for USDC than the following: - USDC - Stablecoins - Tokens - Crypto

A fun, but imperfect analogy to make is comparing the early days of SMS to sending money onchain today: Chain fragmentation is equivalent to nation state geographies: Sending $ from ETH to a SOL address is expensive today - so was a text from the US to Canada in the 2000's.

Welcome to the /utopia channel folks :) One of the best research papers on stablecoins that I've read this past year is from the Brevan Howard team here: https://digify.com/a/#/f/p/ef09be008ee64ab68bda4f0a558302a2. Here's 6 learnings from the /utopia team - I wrote it in the replies below.
