When users talk about Grvt, we want them not to think “blockchain”, but that their “capital works harder here”.
To achieve this, Grvt introduces a native yield layer that allows a single balance to trade, earn and eventually invest simultaneously.
Built on DeFi rails and integrated with protocols such as @aave, this layer leverages composability, allowing capital to flow across protocols and productive strategies, to keep every dollar working at scale.
Value generated by this base layer is then returned directly to the user. Under the hood, this is powered by our integration with @zksync , which delivers high throughput and near-instant zk-verified settlement across chains, turning Ethereum into a live liquidity hub. Liquidity moves across L1 and L2 quickly and securely, keeping capital fluid rather than siloed.

Are we wrong to say that your money spends most of its life waiting?
It happily earns nothing sitting on an exchange overnight, hides in cash after one too many collapses, or simply sits locked inside a product that won't let go for months.
At the same time, the opportunities that actually build wealth stay out of reach, reserved for people who are already wealthy. And on the rare occasion you do try to put your money to work, something always stands in the way, be it a wall of jargon, a withdrawal timer, a minimum balance, or the same exhausting choice between earning and trading.
Isn't that frustrating?
None of this is a personal failing. It's how the system was built. Money gets sorted into boxes - save here, invest there, trade somewhere else, and every wall between them is a place your capital goes to sit still.
World's narrative around wealth has never exactly screamed 'accessible to all', which is why we're building Grvt to take the walls down.
How about one balance where every dollar does more for you, every day? Be it earning yield while you trade, reaching institutional-grade products that once required crazy starting capital (now from just $1), or staying liquid the moment you need it, simply because it's self-custodial and verifiable on-chain.
Your money was always meant to do more than wait. Now it can.
With Grvt, every dollar does more.
Imagine a world where retail traders operate at the same efficiency as institutional desks
where you don’t need 50 analysts to have the same edge

Today we’re proud to list the hottest stock market on earth right now, Korea. KOSPI is up nearly 100% this year, and we are listing the market’s champions as a start: Samsung, SK Hynix, Hyundai Motors. Global equities are now coming on-chain through Grvt.
Once you realize something is written by AI, it's hard not to ignore it for sure
"It's not X, it's Y. "
"The message is clear..."
"The opportnity is enormous — "
A whole bunch of saying a lot and yet not saying nothing.
A lot of the emails I get from founders are now written in a hard-hitting journalistic style. I know they're written by AI, because no founder ever wrote this way before. And once you realize something is written by AI, it's hard not to ignore it.
@WHOOP your AI chat tells me how to split a workout into strength + run but can’t just do it. Expose create_activity and delete_activity to the model and let the agent act. So much talk about user interfaces in the AI era And yet chatbots are so dumb
Grvt x @centrifuge 🤝
The yield was always there. You just weren't allowed to have it. Until now.
Grvt Earn now offers access to yield backed by @centrifuge's JTRSY (Janus Henderson Anemoy Treasury Fund).
A picul (or pikol/pecul) is a traditional Asian unit of weight, historically defined as the load a man can carry on a shoulder pole. It is equal to 133.33 pounds (60.48 kg) in maritime Southeast Asia and Hong Kong
Which are the most humane (empathetic, compassionate) Arab / Middle Eastern novels?
Thought behind the question: I read a bunch of these novels last year -- my selection algorithm was to sample widely among the award-winning works from the region (Egypt, Sudan, Iran, Palestine, Jordan, among others) -- and, overall, I was very struck by the darkness and violence. (Abundant rape, murder, violence, and so forth.)
In trying to figure out why the outlooks are so consistently bleak, I don’t think it’s only a matter of colonialism. For example, The Blind Owl is often ranked as the best novel to come out of Iran, which was never colonized as such, but nonetheless describes an obsessive madman who kills and dismembers his partner. In Season of Migration to the North, the colonizer -- Britain -- is described as being quite benevolent at least at the object level (granting a scholarship to the protagonist; treating him unreasonably justly during his murder trial). Men in the Sun is similarly grim while taking place in a post-colonial Arab world. Even books that are sometimes described as heartwarming (such as Mahfouz’s Cairo Trilogy) centrally feature rape and female oppression (that Amina is not permitted to leave the home is a core plot issue).
One guess is that it is a function of award selection algorithms: gritty despair is seen as high-status and structurally celebrated.
Another theory would be the period: there are lots of humane novels in the Western canon (Dickens, Tolstoy, Eliot…), but those are more likely to be from the nineteenth century, whereas the Arab / Middle Eastern novelistic canon didn’t emerge until the twentieth. I’m not sure this explains it, however. In Search of Lost Time, Great Gatsby, Ulysses, Midnight's Children are all critically-acclaimed 20th century novels, close to the top of almost any list, that one would not describe as macabre.
It’s possible that I just read the wrong books and got unlucky. So: which authors from the region can best be compared to Faulkner, Eliot, Fitzgerald, or Rushdie? (And if they haven't won major awards, does that indicate that the awards have a negative bias?)

Food for thought for software companies
An iPhone makes taking photos effortless. You can shoot hundreds and fix things later.
But good photographers still focus on when to shoot, how to frame, and what not to capture.
The photo quality comes from the thinking, not the shutter.
Quality comes from the thinking.

everything great comes from being able to delay gratification for as long as possible
and it feels like we're collectively losing our ability to do that
