Welcome, welcome! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 🤌🏻 Kwenta integration underway! The Kwenta proposal for their gTrade integration has passed! Kwenta traders can look forward to more markets and more opportunities! The integration process will most likely take 3-4 weeks. https://x.com/kwenta_io/status/1826325209533817216 ⏳ v9.2 is in timelock! This version will bring significant improvements to trader UX, especially for altcoins — all while retaining rock solid risk management! Stand by for a comprehensive Medium article! 🎙 $gUSDC is the talk of the town! $gUSDC is reverberating through Twitter like a bell tolling through a quiet night, and is quite the head-turner!

RWA right at your fingertips! Gone are the days when you had to store thousands of barrels of oil in your already cramped apartment. 🐒 New pairs! A lot of them this time! $RARE, $NEO, $SYS, $NMR, $RSR, $SYN, $AUCTION, and $ALICE are available for trading! 🥸 Important opsec reminders: 🚨 Never visit a crypto-related website directly via search engine results, since a lot of sponsored results (that will show first) can be malicious. Always verify the correct url via other sources, bookmark it, or let your browser auto-complete it. 🚨 If you are using Telegram, which — let’s be honest — you probably are, go to Settings → Security and Privacy, and disable the option for non-contacts to add you to groups. Akin to malicious websites posing as the real deal, Telegram groups often do the same thing! Stay vigilant out there. There is no airdrop, never give your seed phrase to anyone, and admins will never dm you first! ⚙️ Developer Updates: FE/BE: Preparations for integrations and contests, v9.2 and v9.2.1 work, QoL updates and bugfixes; SC: v9.2 and v9.2.1, new timelocks initiated, Autocompound feature is being developed in parallel and is in testing phase.

🛢 WTI and XPD are now back!

🚨 Please be wary of scam groups on telegram, like this one. Go to settings, then privacy and security and set “invites” to “my contacts” to prevent people from adding you to these kind of groups. There is no airdrop.

🛑 PSA: Be cautious of sponsored ads at the top of search results — some may lead to phishing sites. Always carefully double-check URLs (especially for i 1 l, and other characters that look similar) and ensure you’re visiting legitimate websites, and bookmark them instead of using a search engine.

🚨🚨🚨 btw guys, just want to warn everyone about this, do NOT download this app from iOS App Store. wait for the official actual Rabby app to be reviewed and released and follow the link on the Rabby website: https://vxtwitter.com/Rabby_io/status/1758476458559738181
