Performance review of iBTC/DOT pool on Arthswap Hello Interlay community! :raised_hands: We'd like to share the review of the iBTC/DOT liquidity pool on Arthswap after the 3-month incentive period. Join the discussion, we’d love to know your opinion: https://interlay.subsquare.io/post/16

📢🚀 Hey, everyone! We want YOU to help shape the future of Interlay and Kintsugi through our governance processes. 💻🌟 🤔 Not sure where to start? Here's an update on what's going on in governance this week: 🧵

#Bitcoin DeFi 101👇 #Ethereum and its L2 networks hold the majority of off-chain Bitcoin, followed by Binance Smart Chain and Solana. The problem? 99% of it is centralized🧵

Present: - Centralized, controlled by the few - Dependent on fiat currencies - High fees and limited accessibility Future: - Decentralized and accessible to all - Bitcoin as global reserve currency - Low fees, no gatekeepers Build the future with us!

True fact about people who only #HODL BTC: They’re right. 99% of #Bitcoin on other chains is centralized. Why take the risk? Correction: they’re right unless they use Interlay. Truly decentralized BTC finance is hard work, but we're making it happen.

Thank you to all the participants of the Kintsugi trading competition! We couldn't have done it without you. Check out our Discord to find out who the three lucky winners are. Stay tuned for more exciting updates about Kintsugi! https://t.co/049mJfDAFP https://t.co/TEG8GgQAgN

Centralized systems may seem convenient, but they leave you at the mercy of a small group of people. Decentralization ensures a fair and transparent system for everyone.

Discussion Post: Recommendations for Kintsugi's DeFi-Hub Launch We’d like to know what you think about these recommendations for the DeFi Hub on Kintsugi! Share your thought here :point_right: https://kintsugi.subsquare.io/post/15

The mass adoption of crypto can only happen when we bridge the gap between #Bitcoin and the world of #DeFi. But we have to do it without going back to the old system of trusting centralized providers.

Don't rely on centralized providers to protect your funds in the crypto space. Decentralization gives you the power to take control of your own financial future. https://t.co/78e6iE6Cgc
