Feel free to check the delegate dapp he made to voice your support to the ACI for the future of France!
With Aave Governance V3 you need to re-delegate to keep your ACI support.👇
1B $DAI
- minted out of thin air (20% of whole supply)
-into a non-battle tested protocol
-with zero risk mitigation
-weak oracles in less than a month
-for asset hyper sensible to market conditions
is the definition of reckless
Will propose LTV reduction of DAI in Aave today
Ethereum won the L1 wars.
Every cycle since Litecoin, we got "cheaper & faster" chains all sharing the same fate (EOS, SOL, now APT).
Ethereum won because it's not a "cheaper & faster" bitcoin but something completely different.
Now start the era of the L2 wars.
Web3 airdrops gave me more $ that all life salaries.
Web3 gave countless people life changing opportunities.
Web2 gave me ads for dishwashers after I just bought one (maybe I'll start a collection?), even more terrible government, and conspiracies crowd.
I picked my side, thx.
One thing they won't tell you.
You can withdraw now. If you're afraid, you can voluntary exit right now.
Meaning you'll be 1st in line to grab your ETH post Shanghai.
With Shanghai in 3 days the empty withdrawal queue tells everything u need to know.
Zero real stakers panic.
one of my best trades this year has been to be paid in USDC while spending EUR.
Thanks to Christine incompetence
Got a +20% pay bump without asking Stani for anything.
Here's the
#Frenchchart
detailing the process.
Because I cleaned my tweeter of old tweets, most
#FrenchCharts
are gone.
So here's my main strategy I use to both yield farm and exit some Fiat to pay the bills.
Might post one strategy per day until Christmas if you like this one.
Have fun.
The withdraw queue is literally just one guy while 64 guys are waiting to join the staking fun.
Said it multiple times in the past, but my prediction is that the total amount of ETH staked will double in 2023 completely outpacing any withdrawal activity.
18M -> 36M by EOY.
Crisis after crisis, during the darkest of times.
There's always one thing I'm sure about.
@chainlink
price feeds will update like clockwork and make sure AAVE users are safe.
Grateful to work with y'all since day one.

We're in the middle of "the boring" phase.
Nothing seems stands out and the 10 people left play zero sum games while builders are hard at work.
I've seen that movie before:
That's the maximum opportunity zone.
The CT law about founders:
Sell tokens = Scammer
Lock Token = scammer taking all protocol revenue
Use as collateral = Scammer doing reckless leverage
Price goes down = scammer doing slow rug
Some anon out there really expects founders to live off ramen noodles.
As we're getting closer to the merge
recap:
True:
- inflation drops 90% (halving*3)
- supply goes down
- "ETH green BTC ain't" narrative
- chainlink VRF rekt. other stuff fine
- yield up (~10%) first few weeks/month
- validator slots scarce (900/day)
False:
- gas goes down
Kraken asked me to re-KYC. I won't.
If that happened to u anon.
Forget about it and consider:

@holyheld
I created my kraken account in 2015.
In 2023 centralized exchanges are unnecessary.
I guess I gonna do the bad cop here.
Just voted no on using
@AaveAave
protocol treasury to do a donation to "Ukraine"
1) treasury not meant for this, spend to build
2) completely unclear how money is spent
3) Ukraine is known for corruption
4) I hate "virtue hasty moves"
"ETH transaction fees are too $$$!"
yeh that's the plan anon, a settlement layer is meant to settle things...
if you're not a millionaire, use scalability layers.
Here's 6 ways to access L2s without paying a dime of L1 gas 👇
As it's my third trip to goblin town here is some stuff for first-time tourists.

Update:
"The merge will fail!"
"Ok the merge worked but ETH will never be ultra sound"

"Ok withdraw worked, but they will all dump at once!" <- we're here now
"Ok queue system worked, do you have a tutorial to staking eth?"
Aave cost 30$ to use on L1 and 0.01$ on Arbitrum
It's the exact same codebase.
If the 870M$ of liquidity we have on Arb is not enough for you and you do need the L1 11B$ Liquidity.
Then you can afford 30$ txs fees.
Stop whining and start using the L2s anon.
SEC going after barnbridge one of the tamest project DeFi known over the past 3 years send a clear signal:
It's safer to be an offshore scammer than an honest builder with a US passport
'merica, signal was heard loud and clear by the rest of the world that will host innovation.

After spending a week with bitcoiners frens.
It all boils down to a simple difference:
If you're pessimistic and think everything will go wrong, Bitcoin.
If you're optimistic and believe there's still everything to build, Ethereum.
Every L2 is currently centralized by having a single entity operating the sequencer/prover
The only way to solve this is a native token & stake to produce otherwise u are vulnerable to "nothing at stake attacks"
That's it,
thx for coming to my Ted Talk about L2.
We all joke about "blockchain iz down" when there's not much happening in said network.
but when u have DeFi, no block means no possibility of liquidation == zero failsafe to prevent bad debt forming.
No serious DeFi protocol can be on a network that can't process liquidations.
The L2 situation is as ridiculous as the alt-L1 geth-fork era but bc it's beneficial to ETH most are silent.
Reality is few add value and most will be ghost towns a year from now.
There's zero chance Uniswap won't win here.
This will set precedence for the whole DeFi ecosystem & keep the SEC in check.
Gary made a big mistake here.
Pretty sure more than half of my followers dropped out of the ecosystem.
If you're reading this, you survived the hardest part and people will call you "lucky" in a couple of years.
They'll never know u deserved every single buck anon.
Sometimes you scroll through Twitter and just randomly check in on some profiles. Some accounts just stopped posting end of 2021 or mid-2022, and you wonder if they've made it or if they lost it all. I guess we'll never know.
If you've come so far, giving up is not an option.
The fact Blast multisig now has more TVL than the entire 'onchain ecosystem' of Bitcoin or Base L2, and more than 50% of the TVL of the entire Solana ecosystem tells a lot of things.
But not a lot of pretty things.
The proposal to remove the collateral status of $DAI in Aave is now live.
This will mitigate potential contagion risks for the Aave users.
DAI remains an onboarded asset that users are free to borrow.
"Endgame" it is.
I'm not much of a trader, I rather am a humble Farmer doing honest work.
Today's
#FrenchChart
is one of my main current strategies.
It's basically a $AAVE, $ETH & $QI long all packed in one trade.
Main risk is that if Aave drops too much you need to use your MAI to wind down.
PSA tweet:
$USDT is a 0% LTV asset on
@AaveAave
, as it can't be used as collateral, a de-peg event will have no risk of generating bad debt for the protocol.
I guess this week is a great opportunity to thank the Aave Risk DAO team for their hard work keeping user $ Safu.
Shanghai "Death Spiral" update:
10x more validators are willing to stake $ETH compared to the ones willing to unstake.
If you want to start staking, the network will allow you in by next month. If you wish to unstake, the network let you out by Monday.
I tried to buy a few stocks today, but the order didn't go through, and I was wtf.
Then I remembered boomer coins don't trade on weekends.
After years in DeFi, TradFi experience has a prehistoric feel.
I have some personal news to share:
Friday was my last day at AaveCo, and today is my first day as a full-time DAO delegate at the Aave-chan Initiative (ACI).

"It's unbelievable that most centralized entities literally instantly die when people start withdrawing money en masse" 🤯
Meanwhile,
The whole TradFi industry including your local bank 👇
At the end of the year the CT tradition is to share a top 10 altcoins for next year. While I'm no trader and this is ain't financial advice here's mine:
-ETH
-WETH
-StETH
-rETH
-FrxETH
-osETH
-icETH
-cbETH
-sETH2
-(and of course StkAAVE)
Hope that's useful, DYOR.
Created a new business bank account.
I'm stuck in "compliance verification" limbo since 3 weeks despite all paperwork done & several "wtf" emails.
Creating an ETH address takes a second, using Aave & sending stablecoins anywhere in the world takes 12s
Don't fade DeFi.
In 2016, in Shanghai, PoS was "next year".
Took a few additional years of hard work, but in an hour with the Shanghai/Shapella upgrade, PoS is finally complete on Ethereum.
Congrats to everyone that contributed to this 🤝

The foundation layer of the multiverse DeFi liquidity.
The Arkham shitshow is an excellent opportunity to remind everyone why this kind of stuff is a slippery slope and can lead to "presumed guilty" situations
A while ago, my public address aavechan.eth got tornado cash dusted. since then, I live the "paria" web3 experience. 👇
Exactly one year ago:
"How did we let FTX happens? I'm going to buy a ledger, ¡viva la decentralization!"
Now:
"Hey u wanna lock up your ETH in a multisig for 3 months for a new L2 with no testnet so that you can farm a possible airdrop? Here's my invite code!"
Ethereum continues to pump. Those of you in the old school who believe this is a bubble simply have not understood the new mathematics of the Blockchain, or you did not cared enough to try. Bubbles are mathematically impossible in this new paradigm.
Follow-up:
Today is the last day to be first in line to exit when Shanghai/Capella upgrade is activated in 48h.
So far, only 0.59% of validators have taken the exit.
Zero are currently waiting to exit.
One thing they won't tell you.
You can withdraw now. If you're afraid, you can voluntary exit right now.
Meaning you'll be 1st in line to grab your ETH post Shanghai.
With Shanghai in 3 days the empty withdrawal queue tells everything u need to know.
Zero real stakers panic.

we're perfectly happy with Chainlink.
CL proved its resilience over a dozen black swan events (most recently yuga lab gas spike).
Aave supported CL since day one and has zero plan to switch to inferior solutions.
Current state of the ecosystem.
Ppl on the right side of the curve are currently in Berlin for upcoming dappcon
Mid are currently in Singapore for 2049 trying to get a job and squeeze some of the last VC $ for their failed project
Left side are posting about fren tech in here
unpopular opinion:
I consider the "fair" price of $ARB to be 0.8$-1.5$ range. at these prices I keep.
Below that, I'm greedy.
Above that, I'll dump my airdrop on u anon.
My investment strategies for 2022
Buy more ETH
Buy projects with shipoooors teams and communities
Accept to buy ugly NFTs and stupid DAOs because they pomp
Get responsibility airdrops because I like to try stuff.

here are some thoughts of possible strategies in a spectrum of risk you can consider according to your own risk profile anon 👇
@Galois_Capital
For a small fee (5M$)
I can hop on a zoom call to teach u the inner workings of ETH consensus.
And for 7.5M$ I'll garantee you exclusivity for this course.
All Aave V3 markets are now fully back to normal on all networks.
Feel free to deposit, repay, or reopen positions.
Stay tuned for Aave V2 reactivation tomorrow.

#FrenchCharts
are shared on strategies already live, so you're often late to the party and get the juicy first days anon.
So today I share in advance a 3 digits % strategy on $GHST that will go live soon.
hoping you'll be ready when everything is deployed.
have fun.
Time to burn 100k ETH:
From the merge to 100k burned: 218 days
from 100k to 200k burned : 19days
At the current rate, $ETH supply will go below 120M in two months.
I don't own enough $stETH.
u noticed it already anon right?
Your feed is now split in two.
The ones talking about price, posting charts, heroes of yesterday and now looking cringe af
The accounts unbothered, talking upcoming features and cool stuff built.

Aave DAO 🤝 Frax.
I have been asked recently about Aave x solana.
A year ago not long after FTX collapse my opinion on it was very sharp.
Today my opinion hasn’t changed on deploying on L1 the potential ROI is simply not good enough to consider.
What has changed is my opinion to consider neon.
The year is 2025.
"Due to tweets during the 2011-2016 period, your social credit score is now below 450.
An NFT has been minted & transferred to your KYC address, some services might be now unavailable to you.
Feel free to join a reeducation BootCamp to increase your score."
As a ETH solo-staker here's what I'll do when Shanghai hit.
1) activate partial withdraw (grab staking rewards)
2) set & deploy rocket mini pools.
3) grab rETH and deposit on Aave
4) activate emode and enjoy 2 fig % yield.
But sure anon, pls panic, that mean more pools for me.
