Do you see that Parthenon in the distance?
Someone there is already doing quests, farming points, and laughing.
Are you coming with me or will you keep freezing in the snow?

It's a new day for Movement.
For the past year, we rebuilt from the ground up. The L2 to L1 migration in December was the first step. We reached one-second finality and secure smart contracts in Move. Then came Circle, KAST, Avant, and other integrations.
This is just the beginning. 🧵
We have secured access to licensed payment rails in the US, EU, and Canada to become the stablecoin settlement and yield layer for emerging markets.
Billions of people are financially underserved.
We aim to fix that.
5 years ago I fulfilled my childhood dream of being on Wheel of Fortune.
After watching it religiously every single night with my family, crowded around the TV, I finally got to stand on that stage and meet Pat Sajak and Vanna White. (Both were even kinder than I imagined.)
For non-Americans, this show is a national pillar of entertainment that spans generations. Everyone, and I mean everyone, knows Wheel of Fortune.
I spent weeks obsessively practicing and rewatching old episodes, hunting for any edge I could find.
I read countless articles on the most common letters in puzzles and the way phrases are structured. (This was a lot harder before ChatGPT and Claude.)
Here's the thing about me: I hate losing more than I love winning, and boy do I love winning.
Over the course of the game I hit 3 "Bankrupts" and 1 "Lose a Turn." At one point Pat Sajak looked at me and said, "The wheel wasn't your friend today..." But when it mattered most, the preparation paid off and I solved the final puzzle to edge out the win.
In life you can’t control the wheel (luck) but you can control preparation and hard work. It’s no secret that Movement’s “wheel”hasn’t been great but we are now old friends with adversity.
This past year was spent heads-down at the drawing board, obsessively identifying market gaps and figuring out how to solve real problems at scale.
Movement's "luck" is about to change. And when it does, don't act surprised.
InshaAllah.
Move is for money isn’t just a slogan.
We’re excited to announce that Yuzu Money is now integrated as a Day-1 Canopy curator bringing tokenized T-bills, AAA-rated CLOs, and overcollateralized lending yields directly to Movement users.

We're excited to welcome Oro to Movement.
Oro is a gold tokenization and yield platform, and they're the first cross-chain vault integration on the Movement network. Vault integration is in active development. More to come.

We backed Sorted's seed raise led by Tether.
Most crypto tools are for people already in crypto. Most "emerging markets" startups are still pitching. Sorted Wallet (@sortedwallet) is an app for everyone with +500,000 downloads in 160 countries.
And they're just getting started.
DeFi needs a reliable, deep liquidity anchor.
Fragmented liquidity slows everything.
After a formal RFP process for a recommended decentralized exchange on Movement, Yuzu (@YuzuFinance) has earned the designation.
