✨Stablecoins: the past and the presence!

The first stablecoin, BitUSD was introduced nearly 10 years ago and since then stablecoins have amased a total market cap of $160 billion, cementing them as an essential component of the DeFi ecosystem.

They aim to maintain a stable value relative to real-world assets and are used to facilitate trades, serve as collateral for loans, and enable market participants to avoid inefficiencies associated with converting back to fiat currency.

🪙USDT (Tether):
The market leader in US-pegged stablecoins, Tether has established its dominance having the highest market cap. USDT's stability and liquidity are crucial for trading and liquidity provision across numerous DeFi platforms, cementing its status as a foundational asset in the decentralized finance space.

🪙USDC:
The second largest US-pegged stablecoin, USDC has showcased a consistent upward trajectory. USDC's regulatory compliance and transparency contribute significantly to its adoption by institutions and retail investors alike.

🪙DAI:
The biggest algorithmic stablecoin on the market, DAI has a market cap of $5.217 billion. It is backed by a mix of crypto assets, algorithmically managed to keep a 1:1 parity with the US dollar. Historically, black swan events have caused DAI to diverge from its peg, reflecting the complexities and risks of algorithmic mechanisms. However, the idea of a stablecoin backed by crypto assets has resonated deeply with the DeFi and web3 community.

Stablecoins are an essential part of the industry and with the collapses of Luna and controversies around Tether, they have have been shown in a bad light.

It is essential however to understand their importance in making the whole industry more efficient and accessible for all stakeholders.

🔥Have a great week ahead 🔥 the cryptoverse is on the rise🔥

Is SocialFi trending again? Paradigm leads $150 million raise for web3 social media platform Farcaster

Farcaster raised $150 million in funding led by Paradigm, with additional participation from a16z crypto, Haun Ventures, USV, Variant, Standard Crypto and others.
 
Farcaster is an Optimism-based decentralized social media platform that not only gives users more control over their data but allows developers to augment the platform through mini-applications called "frames."
 
Farcaster co-founder Dan Romero wrote in a Tuesday's release that the raise will "support our work on Farcaster for many years to come." 
 
We observed a growth in Farcaster users from February to April amidst the $DEGEN token mechanics in the app, which distributed drops to active Farcaster users and yielded excellent returns post-listing. Now, the community is engulfed in similar mechanics with the $BUILD token and many more! And frames is bringing a large number of builders into the ecosystem!
 
"Since going permissionless last October, Farcaster has seen 350,000 paid sign-ups and a 50x increase in network activity,”
 
Romero added in the statement. "There are hundreds of developers building on the protocol and a growing number of apps and frames for people to use.”

Crypto & Blockchain Venture Capital – Q1 2024, Galaxy Report

The new report from Galaxy shows that we are slowly emerging from crypto VC stagnation!

⚡️In Q1 2024, venture capitalists invested $2.49bn (+29% QoQ) into crypto and blockchain-focused companies across 603 deals (+68% QoQ).

This was the first rise in both capital invested and deal count in 3 quarters, perhaps signaling that Q4 2023 was the “bottom,” although a continuation of QoQ increases – and a more meaningful increase – would confirm that over the coming quarters.

VC Investment by Stage:

In Q1 2024, about 80% of the capital went to early-stage companies, while 20% went to later stage companies.

Investment by Category:

Companies and projects building in the “Infrastructure” category raised the largest share of crypto VC capital in Q1 2024 (24%), led by EigenLayer’s $100m fundraise.

What does the trend show?

Prior bull runs, such as 2017 and 2021, featured a high correlation between VC dollars invested and liquid crypto asset prices, but in 2023 and 2024, venture capital invested has remained well below prior levels while cryptos have rallied.

The venture stagnation is due to a number of factors, high rates environment dampening risk appetite, a remaining hangover in crypto appetite after the blowups of 2022, and perhaps also the lack of sufficient later stage companies capable of taking in large venture checks.

But the data we are seeing is giving expectations of a positive turnaround this quarter!

More than 1 Million new cryptocurrencies have been created since the start of April⚡️

Coinbase director Conor Grogan noted the number of tokens recently launched on Ethereum is twice the number of tokens ever created on the blockchain between 2015 and 2023.

😐Over 370,000 tokens cropped up on Ethereum and 640,000 new tokens — mostly memecoins — launched on Solana. 

👉Ethereum layer-2 network Base has become a hotspot for developers looking to leverage the network’s low fees to launch new tokens at minimal cost — 88% of the tokens launched on Ethereum were through Base.

👀 CoinMarketCap lists the 500 newest tokens it has added to its platform in the last 30 days, with most being memecoins.

👀 Crypto analytics platform CoinGecko now has a memecoin category, which lists more than 600 coins with a total market capitalization of $52.7 billion — almost half of Tether’s!

But "Bitcoin, not memecoins, will continue to be a pivotal driving force in this bull run courtesy of Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and the influence of the halving".

The Truth Behind Points & Token Farming

Airdrops began as simple endeavors where users completed basic tasks to receive free tokens. Early examples, like Uniswap’s ($UNI) airdrop, required minimal effort for substantial rewards.

However, as the market matured, airdrop criteria became more complex, with requirements like forced lockups and volume thresholds.

Today, airdrops often involve prolonged farming seasons and conditions that strategically lock up user funds to inflate metrics artificially.

Unfortunately, this hype-driven cycle often benefits projects and venture capitalists at the short term expense of average participants.

📌 For crypto startup founders, understanding user engagement through airdrops is crucial!

While airdrops can rapidly expand user bases, the quality of users varies significantly.

❗️Many are drawn by short-term gains, leading to high post-airdrop churn rates.

➕ Examples like Renzo, Tensor, EtherFi, and EigenLayer illustrate the challenges and inequities within airdrop mechanisms, often favoring whales and disproportionately benefiting certain tiers of participants.

To foster a loyal community, founders should implement strategies promoting sustained engagement and contribution.

⚡️Always align decisions with personal investment philosophies and risk tolerance!

🤖 AI-based 1:1 targeting in Web3 Marketing

Usual marketing like "everyone gets the same message and visits the same shopping floor" works, but it's very costly.

💵 Primarily, it's very costly for young Web3 startups⛔️

However, more effective ways exist to convert clients and generate revenue: it is based on transferring the Web2 marketing approaches into the Web3 marketing:

🎯 use intention-based targeting to get visitors to the website

🎯 use 1:1 targeting on the website

Using this approach Martin Ploom, co-founder of ChainAware, got 2x effectiveness improvement with the same budget! 🔝
