@zariat @D1k3 When you have a contract address copied there’s a button that appears in the header to go to that token immediately. This feature exists on most other sites too. If you say no that feature doesn’t work, it doesn’t affect anything else.

[razor @razoreth]

@dcfgod @keoneHD Yeah exactly. MON isn’t the asset that’s traded.

[razor @razoreth]

@darionwelch @fomo @definedfi tbf to fomo they do use our data and we just released this feature this week

[razor @razoreth]

@SpiderCrypto0x what did I do to hurt you

[razor @razoreth]

@rbthreek @AgentChud @definedfi Your app is like 10 versions behind lol

[razor @razoreth]

@rbthreek @AgentChud @definedfi There’s a sort by button in the top right of the mobile app. It lets you sort by pretty much anything you want.

[razor @razoreth]

@XavLiew @definedfi Would this work for you? You can exclude the Tokenized Stock category through the filters already.

[razor @razoreth]

@cosmoskyle @definedfi @AgentChud @Pickle_cRypto I added it today. It will included in the next release, probably on Monday.

[razor @razoreth]

@Hylael1 @definedfi I just fixed this one for you, it's live now

[razor @razoreth]

Arc launches in 3 days so that obviously means that all the launchpads are now realizing that they need their data indexed with @trycodex or their tokens won't be available to be searched in half the apps they've already announced partnerships with 😭

[razor @razoreth]

@Jaxon_Capital @DineroDom0 @definedfi I’ll take a weekend off when we sell for 10 (or 11) figures or IPO.

[razor @razoreth]

@Jaxon_Capital @DineroDom0 @definedfi fomo and Defined have very different use cases. They’re best used in unison imo. Even I trade on there sometimes.

[razor @razoreth]

@Brentsketit @CryptoCaptic @0xjune_ It’s true I have a serious problem

[razor @razoreth]

@veH0rny @definedfi We’ve continued our habit of shipping cool products, telling absolutely no one about it, and hoping for the best

[razor @razoreth]

@AgentChud @definedfi we’ve actually had people say they wouldn’t share it with their friends because it would reduce their edge lol

[razor @razoreth]

@kasperloock @machiuwuowo @definedfi I have legitimately never heard this complaint before haha. I just checked and we're currently ahead by 9 seconds. Please DM me and share an example so we can fix whatever is wrong for you.

[razor @razoreth]

@kasperloock @machiuwuowo @definedfi our charts update in under a second from the trade happening. if that's not the case for you it sounds like a bug. do you have an example?

[razor @razoreth]

@0xNairolf happy you like it.

don’t really care about a “battle”, just trying to make the best product possible.

let me know if we can improve anything and I’ll do it personally.

[razor @razoreth]

@hammertoesknows @dcfgod @definedfi don't worry I'm old too.

you looking for something like this? I realize it's a bit more difficult for discovery and we're working on that. It's just so much more powerful though.
