This is just scratching the surface of what the Celo ecosystem has accomplished in the past six years
For a deeper look at the momentum & milestones, read the blog post ↓

As network usage and real-world adoption accelerated, it was time for Celo's economics to evolve with it
Through the CELOccelerate tokenomics upgrade, in just one week, network revenue has increased 66.6%
A key driver of Celo's growth is "Crypto's Killer Use Case" -- @MiniPay
The self-custodial stablecoin wallet built by @opera has onboarded 14M+ users in 60+ countries.
If every user held hands, they'd stretch from New York to Lagos and back - twice.
With 25 native stablecoins, Celo is home to the most of any blockchain
This is more on par with @PayPal than any other network. While PayPal reached 25 currencies over 25 years, Celo achieved it in 6
Security costs after the L2 migration dropped 99.8%
That's like going from lighting an entire theater to one single seat. It's the same show at a fraction of the cost
Celo consistently leads as the #1 @Ethereum Layer 2 by Daily Active Users, reaching a peak of 840K DAUs
That's more than the entire population of San Francisco using Celo in one day
Six years ago today, Celo mainnet launched on Earth Day! 🥳
The @Ethereum Layer 2 built for the real world has processed 1.27B+ transactions, bringing fast, low-cost stablecoin txs to 600K+ global users every day
What does this look like in practice? Here's a better look ↓
It’s crazy we can text a 4k video to a friend halfway across the world but yet can’t easily send the same friend a payment… real-time transaction finality is what we need to get there.
