24 hours since @StoxCredit launched on @base!
Here's what happened in our first 24 hours:
1. Completely redesigned our website UI.
2. Crossed 100+ visitors on Day 1, now at 112!
3. Launched our first Apple Stock Lending & Borrowing Pool on Base with 500 USDC in liquidity.
4. Current Borrow APY: 1.09% (Variable). It's currently low, but could increase as borrowing demand grows.
5. Users can lend USDC to earn interest or borrow against their stock positions.
What's next? 👀
We're launching our own Google and NVIDIA stock lending & borrowing pools in the coming days.
Our biggest challenge right now is liquidity. We want to launch more pools, but we need more funds to scale.
💬 DeFi community, we need your feedback!
How can we attract more liquidity and grow StoxCredit?
Stop selling stocks. Start borrowing.

From law to crypto, they get into how they found their way into the space, and how crypto has changed their lives by giving them a different kind of freedom.
And, perhaps most importantly, why anyone coming to @EFDevcon should make time to explore India’s coffee scene. ☕️
