Big thanks to LSE London 🇬🇧 for having us! @LSESUBlockchain David and Marcos delivered a great lecture on crypto security and self-custody in real life.
This is our first hackathon. We built a narrative-driven terminal for intent trading, winning 2nd place from @pear_protocol track and 3 bounties from @encodeclub, way beyond what we expected. It's easy to come up with a thesis; it's hard to turn it into a trade. On TAGO Leap, you can turn tweets into multi-asset hedged trades. How to use it: 1. Deposit from any chain into a perp dex using @lifiprotocol 2. Find a tweet you want to trade on 3. Execute multiple trades in a batch using @pear_protocol 4. Wait until it profits or closes through automatic risk and TP management using @SaltSovereignty Based on current perp dex infrastructure, we make trading self-custodial and permissionless. On top of that, we make structured trading accessible to the non-institutional traders. --------------------------------------------------------- Thoughts behind the product: Although @KaitoAI's api was banned a few days ago, X remains the core distribution channel in crypto, with valuable analytical content. InfoFi is still alive, bot posting is dead. Traders now have cleaner information on X, as it should have been from the beginning. However, there's massive disagreement about this, which we believe is an undiscovered market opportunity. Another key catalyst is the intense competition in perp dexs, AI, and AI trading bots. Coming from a research/ideation/growth background, I found user onboarding in perp dexs is no longer just about: - an easy bridge/deposit button and letting users improvise - gurus making artificial fomo (they are delta-0 hedged across multiple perp DEXs) It's about fitting daily use cases: - Users get random trade ideas naturally while scrolling X - When ideas pop up, let users trade NOW This applies beyond perp dexs. The same competition will soon hit prediction markets, which we will integrate! @LSESUBlockchain @KevinApetrei @Loki31908422024

Awesome💙🧢🔵🟦 Base app is now my fav app!
Just hosted our first event at @LSESUBlockchain on our vision and an introduction to Blockchain and DeFi concepts such as Credit Markets and their quantitative applications within our research hub. Had an amazing turnout of 40+, maxing out the capacity for the event! We’re unleashing the idea of blockchain to all of @LSEnews! @_clemens__ from @baseduk_ @base supported us in this big launch and gave an enticing argument for careers in crypto as opposed to TradFi! Thank you everyone who attended, we’re gearing up some very interesting initiatives for the new year.
We're gearing up for something big with @LSESUBlockchain as we expand our team to 20+ members. Our priorities might be slightly different to those of other Blockchain Societies across the world. We're not solely focused on blockchain development and engaging in hackathons, but trying to promote the financial perspective to students: 1. We want Finance and Economics students to learn about crypto and DeFi and consider it as an interesting option for future careers as opposed to TradFi/Banking. 2. Aiming to make LSESU Blockchain a Research and Trading Hub in London, bringing together students to push forward trading analysis, quant/DeFi reports. 3. Create a student-led infrastructure working with investment funds across the UK to bring them on-chain and invest in blue-chip crypto + DeFi products. There is very little competition for careers in DeFi, and extremely high opportunity. We're really excited to have @baseduk_ and @_clemens_ supporting us, who will help us skyrocket this movement. If you're a student in London, or at @LSEnews, please reach out! Or if you're a UK-based crypto startup or firm, send me a DM and we can work together.
@LSESUBlockchain 我们关注的不只是编程和黑客松，而是更多去探索区块链的商业和金融属性： 1. 让更多世界顶尖的经济/金融学生了解crypto行业，作为除开传统金融以外的另一个就业方向 2. 成为校园阶段里投研+交易的核心社区 3. 和投资基金合作，推动链上投资 @LSEnews 是商界的人才储备库，我们致力于为crypto行业培养，输送有潜力的投研，BD，交易，mkt人才，补齐校招渠道的缺口 感谢 @baseduk_ 和 @_clemens__ 的支持，我们会持续建造社区 欢迎感兴趣的朋友dm！ #Crypto #London #Coinbase #LSE_Blockchain
