July brought the amazing opportunity to join brilliant minds at the African Computer Vision Summer School 2024 in Kenya. 🌍 @ACVSS_AI. Meeting experts from diverse fields in the African Computer Vision community was a dream come true for a computer vision enthusiast like me.
Dear Algorithm,
Show this post to copy traders looking for verifiable traders, and profitable traders who want to build credibility without revealing the strategies behind their edge.
The best traders don't share their strategy.
But how do you know who to trust if nobody shows their cards?
That's exactly what we're talking about this Friday.
🎙️ The Future of Trading Reputation
Our speakers will be live to break down how verifiable performance is changing social trading and what it means for traders and followers alike.

Eid Mubarak to all! 🌙
May your day be filled with love, laughter, and the company of those closest to your heart.
Wishing you and your family peace, barakah, and every blessing this Eid.
Aameen 🤍
The moment a signal provider reveals their wallet, their edge starts dying.
Copy trading.
Front-running.
Strategy leakage.
This is why many great traders never share signals.
A thread
Most people think DeFi is complete because the obvious layers exist.
You can swap tokens, lend assets, farm yield, trade derivatives.
But there's a foundational layer missing that nobody talks about because it didn't exist until recently, and without it, DeFi can't scale beyond treating everyone identically regardless of their actual track record or proven reliability. 🧵
Social trading has operated on a flawed premise for too long.
To earn trust, traders are expected to expose everything, but real edge doesn’t survive mass visibility.
We’re building a different model: verifiable performance without strategy exposure.
Appreciate the thoughtful spotlight from @horizenglobal as we continue building toward privacy-preserving reputation in DeFi.
Most DeFi protocols solve the same problem independently. How do you verify users are credible without forcing them to expose everything?
They either build expensive verification systems, ignore reputation entirely, or compromise user privacy.
But there has always been a better way. 🧵

A new project joins the Nillion ecosystem
@UseObscura is a privacy-preserving trading reputation layer that lets traders prove performance without exposing trades or API keys.
Now secured by Nillion.
🧵👇
✅ First month free
✅ First-trade incentive
Trade $5, receive $5
These terms apply only to the first five hundred users.
But the real advantage: early traders lock in verifiable performance history they can use to raise capital, negotiate better terms, and prove edge without exposing strategies.

The trust model in DeFi has always been broken. You either prove yourself by exposing everything, or you stay private and stay irrelevant. Not anymore.
Obscura is live, enabling verifiable trading reputation without exposing trades or private data.
The platform has launched and early access is open for the first 500 users. The first users are already onboarding, and the gap between early adopters and everyone else is forming in real time.
If privacy and verifiable performance matter to you, the window is narrowing.

In DeFi, your trading history is your competitive advantage, unless you've exposed it to everyone.
That's why Obscura lets you prove performance without revealing the trades that got you there.
Obscura is now live.
We're a verifiable reputation protocol for DeFi built on zero-knowledge proofs powered by @horizenglobal and @thriveprotocol . For the first time, you can prove your trading performance across CEXs and DEXs without exposing strategies, credentials, or trade details.
We are opening early access to the first 500 users and here's everything you need to know about what that means.🧵
Obscura is now live!
Too many traders and protocols are asked to prove credibility by exposing trades, private data, strategies, or accounts. Over time, that erodes privacy and limits who can participate.
Obscura introduces a privacy first reputation protocol for DeFi, powered by @thriveprotocol and @horizenglobal, that verifies trading performance without exposing sensitive information.
The first two hundred and fifty users (250) users get free access for this month. Once 250 users onboard, the paywall activates and subscriptions begin next month.

🌟 That's a Wrap on the Indaba! A Heartfelt Thank You to the Community and See You in Nigeria! 🇳🇬 🌟
What an extraordinary week it has been in Kigali, Rwanda 🇷🇼! For six days, over 1,000 of us came together under the inspiring theme "Urunana – Hand in Hand for AI in Africa." The 7th edition of the Deep Learning Indaba was a powerful testament to the collective dedication of our community.
We could not have done it without you. 🙏
TOur Host:
Our deepest gratitude to our organisers, sponsors, doners, partners, speakers, volunteers and everyone who contribuated to our mission.
Looking ahead, we are thrilled to announce that the next Deep Learning Indaba will be hosted in Nigeria 🇳🇬! We can't wait to bring the spirit of #Urunana to this vibrant AI community.
Thank you for being part of this incredible journey.
➡️ We'll be sharing a report soon, detailing the impact of this edition and the many ways we are continuing to build a sustainable pan-African community of AI expertise. 🌍
