One way to measure decentralization and why you should care.
A Nakamoto coefficient of 178 means it would take 178 independent validators to collude to disrupt consensus. For comparison, many chains sit in low or single digits.
Decentralization isn't something a network can just claim. It's something you can measure and demand proof of.
After the quantum hoopla is over, and turns out to be kind of like Y2K, Bitcoin will have a problem with its mining rewards being insufficient. At that point, it will benefit from a pre-consensus layer based on Avalanche.
Yield in motion starts with BENQI.
The future of Avalanche won’t be built on idle $AVAX, it’ll be built on productive capital.

Getting into DeFi is exciting! You open a wallet, connect to an app, see high yields, and it looks like opportunity is everywhere.
But most beginners do not lose money because they picked the “wrong coin.”
They lose money because they want to see number go up without understanding the basics.
Here are the 5 most common mistakes new DeFi users make(Avoid ‘em!) 🧵👇
3/ To compete with existing TradFi systems, DeFi needs to leverage programmability to increase capital efficiency.
As borrowing demand varies, supply APYs on Aave have at times fallen below the risk-free rate. The Reinvestment Module sets a more productive floor for depositors.
KyberSwap choosing $frxUSD for FairFlow further validates frxUSD as a default stablecoin.
Our yield-forwarding mechanism, combined with Kyber's FairFlow, which redirects arbitrage profits to LPs, is a model for more sustainable and capital-efficient DeFi liquidity. Try it out👇

Here’s what happened at the world’s largest crypto conference, and why policymakers are backing the future of digital dollars 🧵
📢 Convenience Class Update – Opt-Down Period Now Active
Following the finalization of the balance checkers review, Radiant is moving forward with the next step in its remediation process.
As part of this process, the DAO has adopted a structured and widely recognized approach, often used in traditional finance contexts, by establishing a Convenience Class to prioritize early remediation for users with smaller balances.
🟢 The Convenience Class includes users with net deposits between $10 and $1,000, which together represent 95% of all affected wallets, but only 2% of the total amount impacted.
This structure enables the DAO to focus on remediating the vast majority of users with minimal impact on the protocol’s long-term sustainability.
💡 Users in the Convenience Class will receive a 30% haircut on their individual net deposit — meaning each user will be eligible to claim 70% of their original net deposit amount, up to a maximum of $1,000.
For example:
• A user with $500 will receive 70% of $500 → $350
• A user with $1,050 who opts down to $1,000 will receive 70% of $1,000 → $700
🔧 How to Opt Down
If your wallet is not currently eligible for the Convenience Class due to having a net deposit above $1,000, you may opt down to qualify.
To do so, send any ERC-20 token (e.g. 0.01 RDNT or 0.01 USDT):
→ From the affected wallet
→ To: 0x19508555Bbe5C8Ca65eDd38474946D36c1041AdF
→ On the same chain where you were affected (Arbitrum or BNB)
Once the transaction is recorded on-chain, your wallet will be migrated to the Convenience Class and removed from the long-term Claim Contracts.
📅 Opt-down deadline: August 31st
