GM Baos,

Today we cover: this week's bao-sized news highlights 🥟

A week in review ✨

Twitter's partnership with eToro

Thanks to a partnership between Twitter and eToro, Twitter users will soon be able to buy and sell stocks/crypto via the app. Here's what else this means:

  • Expanded $Cashtag features

  • Real-time trading data

  • A "view on eToro" tab that takes you to eToro

Line Friends (IPX) x Azuki

IPX and Chiru Labs team up to create Line Friends/BEANZ content and merchandise. To celebrate the partnership, Line Friends kigus were available to equip, and an animation was displayed on a billboard above the Line Friends store in Times Square during NFT NYC 2023.

Solana Saga

Solana Mobile has officially launched its mobile device Saga 🥳

Pre-orders will ship on April 20th, and new orders will be available starting in May. With Saga, you can instantly mint an NFT from a picture or seamlessly interact with any of the 16 available dApps, including Audius, Jupiter Aggregator, Magic Eden, and Mango Markets 👀

DeFi 1.0 exploit

Another day, another hack? Maybe 🥴

A tweet by @peckshield regarding a possible Aave/Yearn exploit made its rounds on CT. It was later discovered that the loss of $10m+ (1.2 quadrillion yUSDT tokens were minted) was limited to an older version of Yearn Finance. Aave was only used to swap tokens during the exploit.

The Uniswap mobile wallet is LIVE 🦄

Uniswap's mobile wallet has been approved by Apple in select countries. The wallet was previously available only on Apple TestFlight. You can buy assets using a bank account or credit card on ETH, Polygon, Arbitrum, and Optimism via MoonPay 🌕

A side note - I've had the Uniswap wallet for less than 24 hours, and I can already tell that if there were a browser, this would easily be my go-to DeFi wallet. It's sooo nice.

Made us Kek 😂

💗 Happy weekend Baos
