The @realfi_co Testnet is officially live – Phase 1 starts now.
If you've been following what we're building – a stablecoin ecosystem designed to connect on-chain capital to real-world credit markets, not circular incentives – this is your first chance to get hands-on with the protocol.
Phase 1 opens three actions in the test environment:
🔄 Swap: Between supported test digital assets and test USDr.
📥 Stake: Stake test USDr for test sUSDr, its efficiency layer.
📤 Unstake: Move back to test USDr.
This isn't just a demo. It's a deliberate part of how we build. Most stablecoins leave capital sitting still. RealFi is built to change that by bringing real-world economic exposure on-chain with the speed and security of modern blockchain infrastructure.
More details on the participation and rewards structure will follow through official RealFi channels.

@alemayehuGeda@solassefa I would argue against #2. While it is great to have a tool with expanded utility, implementation can be hectic if you try to solve for a wider audince now. You already have a very good use case: restaurants, which is a large enough market. Why go for small kiosks etc now?
@bisratkebe I grew up going there on Saturdays it truly has memory in my heart but also confused if the public has shared memory through out the times to make it a heritage site.Sad to see it go like this. Also sad to see an entity that is supposed to stand for heritages on the contrary side
@TeddyTassewK I am trying to focus on the root problem you mentioned: financing gap and how we can get new sources of capital to businesses. And I don't think a capital markets is the solution. Even private credit is an upward hill to these businesses.
@TeddyTassewK Agreed, it is definitely an alternative source of capital and a good alternative.But, my point is lenders find it difficult to get to a scale (they lack the lending capital) to become good enough to be listed.I haven't seen a single fintech lender that had an IPO in Africa. [1/2]
