5 Alpha Tweets - The Future of Ethereum, Become a Web3 Developer & More

Edition 20

May 20, 2022

Welcome to the alpha please newsletter. I curate five alpha tweets every Friday; that’s it, that’s the newsletter.

1. Soulbound Tokens

NFTs (SBTs) that can’t be sold or transferred could usher in a new wave of innovations and utility on Ethereum… Well, at least that’s what Vitalik thinks.

Jason Levin @iamjasonlevin

What is the future of Ethereum? Last week, Vitalik Buterin co-published a paper predicting Ethereum's future. I read the 37-page paper and interviewed its co-authors so you didn't have to. [🧵 THREAD]

2. Become a web3 developer

No better time to learn than during a bear market…

I spent 0$ to become a web3 developer ⚡️ I only spent on Gas Fees 😅 YouTube channels to learn Web3 Dev for FREE🌱 A Thread 🧵↓

3. 6529 on bear markets

What should you do now?

6529 @punk6529

1/ On Bear Markets You are down bad? Working at McDonald's? Your ATH net worth is only visible with a telescope? Your gf is wondering where all the money went? Now what?

4. Not all DeFi protocols are dead

When the narratives are dead, we go back to the data; and the data is telling us that DeFi is still alive…

Patrick | Dynamo DeFi @Dynamo_Patrick

Bear or bull market, DeFi innovation continues. Even with many tokens down significantly from their all time high, a number of protocols have managed to attract new users and grow their revenue. Here is a thread 🧵 of 5 DeFi protocols whose revenue has been growing recently.

5. Coinbase will allow users to interact direct with Ethereum dApps

Coinbase are still shipping. dApp interactions without having to manage your private keys… Sounds significant to me.

mhonkasalo @mhonkasalo

Coinbase launched 2 pretty great features: - Fiat payments in dapps (incl. launching with Metamask). - Ethereum interactions directly from Coinbase app w/o keys (MPC). No positivity shows the market we are in, but both could do really well once interest picks up again.

@alpha_pls tweet of the week

Understand market caps.

Aylo @alpha_pls

Another thing to take away from the collapse of $LUNA: Market caps are just a number represented by a coin's supply and the highest bids in the order books.

And that’s your alpha.
