Excited about non-finance use cases in web3.

@berniethebutler @frankencoinzchf Well, that's why were creating content. So more people get to know @frankencoinzchf

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

So you're just ignoring the many live EUR stablecoins?

The only regulated CHF stable is issued in Germany by @AllUnityStable and Switzerland seems very much asleep at the wheel.

Your sandbox so far is pure hot air with pretty press releases but zero product. Thank god there is Frankencoin...

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

@gawc1uuu I thinl you should add @frankencoinzchf to that list. Curious where the oracle-less approach lands it

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

@Ceazor7 @TrustlessForce @cyrille_briere @protocol_fx @samkazemian @fraxfinance I'm slightly offended getting called a "Suit"

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

@jessepollak Help us grow @frankencoinzchf

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

@FelipeLupion @GabrielD_Ouro @frankencoinzchf $ZCHF yields currently 3.5% p.a.

@rulematch @LehmannLorenz @frankencoinzchf @growthepie_eth @AllUnityStable Is CHFAU trading anywhere? AFAIK Rulematch is not publicly available

@eldarcap Didn't receive anything. Your DMs are closed so can't reach out.

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

@eldarcap I'm reading your concerns regarding the BOSS collateral in Frankencoin & would love to share some insights on how we quantify this risk (as the association) and get your input on how to make the system more robust!

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

@DjaniWhaleSkul @AxlRokendu @frankencoinzchf We're building a Swiss franc stablecoin that scales, is fully decentralized and solves many of the chqllengew other CDP platforms face. 😉

@k0k1eth @jakobonchain @frankencoinzchf If you like a juicy yield on your stablecoin it certainly is up there

What a week in Cannes! 🇫🇷

As the Frankencoin Association members are on their way back to Switzerland, we wanted to share some highlights.

@stable_summit - on Friday and Saturday, @Luzius and @jonk93 participated in panels and keynotes, and somehow Frankencoin became the talk of the town.

@EthCC - on Monday, @jonk93 joined a @MiCA_Alliance panel for a deep dive into the regulated side of DeFi, a fascinating discussion on what “decentralized” actually means under MiCA.

In the afternoon, @jonk93 went on to the main conference to speak about Swiss franc stablecoins in front of a packed room.

By Tuesday - Frankencoin was suddenly one of the most talked about projects in Cannes!

On Wednesday, @PaoloDiStef officially joined the Frankencoin Association team, as Director of Collateral Management, and he's already hitting the ground running, with first projects in the pipeline on day one!

In addition, @jonk93 joined an @ethereumfndn stablecoin workshop, with participants from @LiquityProtocol, @SkyEcosystem, @CurveFinance, @polarisfinance_, @ambire, @protocol_fx, @ether_fi, @gnosis_, and others, discussing on how to move the space forward together.

To wrap things up, on Thursday Frankencoin closed the week co-hosting together with @chain_security what quite a few people described as the best side event of the week - with the EthCC pre-after-party Apéro!

The cheese was insane. The turnout too.

All of this alongside countless high-quality meetings.

One thing is clear: DeFi is taking note of Frankencoin. And RWAs are coming.

Back to the office this week, with @EthereumZurich coming up next Friday!

Happy Easter & Passover everyone,

Much love and cheese.

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

@AlsieLC @Dune So Swiss francs?

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

@DarrenCamas @0xsvjstu You should do the Milano - Zug axis!

Discover why non-USD stablecoins are revolutionizing store-of-value strategies beyond traditional payments with Johannes Kern (@jonk93) at the Stablecoins & Global Payments track.

Local currency stability opens doors to financial sovereignty that dollar-pegged coins simply can't match.

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

@nomos_paradox Or you build a system that completely works without oracles from the ground up? If you remove the need for speed from the equation new universes open up!

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

Today, I had the pleasure to join the tremendous people of WHVP for their Swiss Money Secrets podcast chatting about @frankencoinzchf and the Swiss franc. Thank you! Great conversations!

[jonk.eth @jonk93]

I believe there is space for multiple players.

But: Centralized Swiss franc stablecoins are not only tricky (say impossible, at least issued in Switzerland) from a regulatory perspective but are also economically challenging with very low yields on the CHF.

Frankencoin is somehow in a sweet spot here: It can operate and is fully compliant because it is decentralized and it overcomes the economic challenges through the yield premium that currently exists in DeFi and the substantially more efficient running costs (there is no entity controlling the ZCHF and no overhead costs) cost structure that actually allows it to scale.

Re AllUnity: Their Euro stablecoin has not really acheived any PMF so far and I fear (even though I hope the opposite is true, as I'd love to propose to make it a part of the Frankencoin ecosystem) that CHFAU will stay a very niche internal use-case for certain centralized businesses wanting access to a "regulated" CHF stablecoin.
