This year's EthCC was momentous as Ethereum marked its 10-year anniversary. Let's dive into what took place last week in Brussels: 💡 Ethereum co-founders Vitalik Buterin, Joseph Lubin, and Gavin Wood took center stage and emphasized Ethereum's foundational role in decentralized applications and called for more research and community collaboration to overcome current blockchain limitations.   📢 We sponsored and participated in the Movement Labs' Integrated Day hosted. Movement Labs is developing the first Move-EVM Layer 2 on Ethereum, integrating the strengths of the EVM. Laszlo Fodor joined a panel on the topic. 🍸 Next, we co-hosted an afternoon mixer with Eclipse Foundation and Anza. Eclipse is pioneering the integration of the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) on Ethereum, aiming to leverage the strengths of both ecosystems to create a more performant and scalable Layer 2 solution. 🎤 We were also happy to be part of the inaugural Borderless Summit, hosted by SynFutures, a leading decentralized derivatives protocol that enables on-chain futures and perpetual contracts trading for a wide array of assets. Ruben Brons participated in an panel during the Summit on liquidity considerations for projects. 🏃♂️ Finally, we were proud to be part of Pyth Network’s announcement of Express Relay. The launch of the Express Relay service on mainnet is a significant milestone aimed at eliminating the long-standing issue of Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) in on-chain applications. Laszlo Fodor once again took to the stage to talk about our role and partnership with Pyth and how we believe this is a game-changer.

It’s time to take back control and eliminate MEV. Introducing: Express Relay—priority auctions for a more self-sovereign DeFi 🔮 Remove the extractive role of miners, roll out protocols faster, and instantly access a network of top searchers. Express Relay directly connects DeFi protocols to a network of established searchers. This priority auction allows searchers to compete for priority to perform lucrative operations (such as liquidations) on integrated DeFi protocols. Express Relay addresses the problem of MEV, the profit that miners or validators extract from reordering, including, or excluding transactions within a block. This extraction results in costs and inefficiencies for DeFi protocols and users. Enter Express Relay. With Express Relay, the sequencing of transactions is determined in auctions controlled by protocols, eliminating the extractive role of miners. By enabling protocols to auction off priority for critical operations, Express Relay ensures that searchers can compete more aggressively over the transaction value. Express Relay also solves an additional problem for searchers and early-stage DeFi protocols. New protocols must build their own liquidator networks and negotiate with searchers to ensure reliable liquidations. Searchers also take on integration costs for each protocol that they choose to integrate with. Both parties take on significant opportunity costs. Express Relay offers early-stage protocols a way to accelerate deployment. Instead of building liquidator networks and negotiating with searchers, protocols can seamlessly connect to an established searcher network to bootstrap liquidations. For searchers, Express Relay aggregates valuable transaction opportunities of multiple DeFi protocols in one place. Searchers can compete for these opportunities without writing bespoke code for each protocol’s interface. With Express Relay: DeFi Protocols can preserve extracted value and leverage a pre-integrated searcher supply for faster deployment. Searchers can enjoy access opportunities across all integrated protocols. DeFi Users benefit from the elimination of the extractive role of miners. The Pyth DAO recently voted to approve the mainnet deployment of Express Relay, the newest Pyth Network product. Express Relay aligns the community’s interest with the needs of increasingly sophisticated DeFi projects. Express Relay is live on EVM mainnets and is supported by a robust network of searchers and DeFi protocols. Integrated users include prominent lending, perpetual futures, and derivatives protocols. These names comprise $1 billion in TVL across 11 chain Synthetix, Zerolend, Ionic, Synonym Finance, Fulcrom Finance, Keom Protocol, Jax Finance, Vela Exchange Express Relay’s searcher network currently includes many of the leading institutional and decentralized on-chain participants: Auros, Caladan, Flow Traders, Flowdesk, Swaap Labs, Tokka Labs, Wintermute

Today Pyth Network launches an innovative new tool which puts the power back into the hands of the protocols, eliminating MEV and making liquidations more efficient!

To mark the launch, they are hosting an insightful and vibrant launch day during #ethcc for the community and it was great to join as panelists and contributors for their media roundtable. “Liquidations are inherently difficult to execute effectively. With the introduction of Pyth Express Relay, a new protocol is accessible to enable efficient and seamless execution of liquidations,” Flow Traders Global Head of Digital Asset Michael Lie Read more in The Block https://lnkd.in/ghzZCfQR

Our CEO, Mike Kuehnel, had the honor of participating in this year’s prestigious IEX.nl Investor Day forum, sharing the stage with leaders from various industries. During the fireside chat hosted by Jort Kelder, we had the opportunity to engage with 1,200 members of the Dutch investor community. Mike shared his insights on the dynamics of global financial markets, our strategic focus, and how our company has developed and diversified over the past 20 years. He also discussed how we are leveraging emerging opportunities across both traditional and digital asset markets. With advancements in technology, increased capital fostering innovation, and the ongoing digitization of markets, we are excited about what lies ahead for our firm. It was a fantastic opportunity to share our vision and engage with our investor community.

As an active contributor to developing and investing in digital asset market structure we are delighted to share we are partnering with Copper.co! “Innovative structures like Copper’s Clearloop and the Copper Network are contributing to developing more mature crypto markets, which we believe will enhance trust across the digital asset ecosystem. Essentially, Copper’s infrastructure enables us to keep our funds secure off-exchange in a reliable structure, thereby significantly reducing counterparty risk. Trust is a recurring macro theme to unlocking broader adoption of both crypto and the underlying innovation in the space; therefore, we are actively leveraging and supporting structures like the one Copper has introduced to continue to improve markets.” Michael Lie Do you want to find out more? https://lnkd.in/eneWURxB
