Google is giving away stablecoins, and it's only possible with Self's proof-of-human technology.
Real humans can get real money through a first-of-its-kind distribution engine.
Here's how it works. โ
Major news!!
Super popular Android browser (90% market share, 100M+ Opera users across Africa) Opera Mini launches an integrated web3 wallet @minipay - available now in Nigeria ๐ณ๐ฌ, with more markets launching soon.
Congrats to the @opera team for creating a best-in-class
๐ข Itโs finally here! We're thrilled to introduce @minipay by @opera, a new dollar stablecoin wallet built on Celo to onboard millions of mobile users across Africa to Web3! ๐๐งต
Would folks here be interested in a Twitter Spaces with the web3 lead from Deutsche Telekom to cover all the exciting things they are doing in web3?
If we can get to 100+ likes on this tweet, I ll pitch it :)
Never been a better moment to start building on @Celo L2
๐ millions of real, active users via @minipay
๐ฑ most local currency stablecoins of any ecosystem
๐ฆ DeFi building blocks @chainlink@aave@Uniswap@VelodromeFi
๐ค cool AI infra ai.celo.org
.. and most
Want to build a business around stablecoin payments? @Celo is the only L2 with both native USDT and USDC. It's also among the cheapest L2s with ERC20 transfers costing less than a tenth of a cent ๐
If you are in crypto because you believe it can bring long-term, sustainable positive change to society as a whole, don't get distracted, keep building.
Reading this latest @VitalikButerin post and seeing the comments & energy around it makes me even more excited about Celo becoming an Ethereum L2 and collaborating more closely with the Eth community towards this northstar โจ
Another month, another record in stablecoin volume on @Celo -- July saw over $1.14B transferred, up 69% over last 3 months!

Excited to speak at @token2049 next week!
What an amazing start to 2024 for the @Celo ecosystem: USDT and USDC going live on Celo w/ support as gas currencies, @minipay crossing 2M users, many cool new launches incl celosphere.xyz by @rarible, @ToucanProtocol#CHAR,
๐ฏ very much see L2s like @base and @CeloOrg as major onboarding engines for the entire Ethereum ecosystem
with Celo, already thanks to @FiatConnect people are onramping from local fiat ๐ต- often for free - via wallets like @Valora & @minipay, directly on their mobile phones ๐ฑ
the days of on and offramping via ethereum L1 are over
the vast majority of new users will onboard directly to L2, then have cheap, fast, easy ways to do anything
a @base value from the beginning has been "a bridge not an island" - because we want to enable exactly this

Got a bunch of pings over the weekend about $CELO.
I donโt know what prompted the strong activity but will say I have been super impressed by team & community quietly shipping a ton of cool stuff over the past couple months ๐ช
November highlights so far ๐งต
