Set Protocol Introduces Social Trading. Set Social Trading is a marketplace and network that enables traders to create their own trading pools where they can enact trades on commodities such as ETH, WBTC, USDC, DAI, cUSDC, and cDAI. Followers can then join these trading pools, copying every single action the Trader (or trading algorithm) enacts. This feature is expected to go live in early 2020.

Betting on DeFi interest rates with Maple.

ETHBTC relative strength index set launches.

Net spread on Maker’s Dai is 0. 4% Dai Savings Rate and 4% Dai Stability Fee.

DAI flipped SAI. There’s now more Dai in existence than Sai. Probably because of that 0% spread.

Introducing the Open Finance Index (OFI): The OFI has been created as a new way of measuring the activity/growth of Open Finance on Ethereum. OFI departs from the TVL methodology, instead of aggregating vertical-specific metrics.

DeFi Saver Releases CDP Migration Tool: This CDP migration tool automatically checks the current locked Sai availability in the migration contract and simply upgrade your CDP once there’s enough Sai available.

Introducing the TokenSets Weekly Market Report: In these newsletters, the Set team will be covering the events of the previous week including a report on Set performance and rebalance events, a brief overview of recent crypto market activity, relevant on-chain metrics, a learning section and links to resources, blog posts, podcasts and videos that caught their eye.

Wyre ❤️ Ethereum: In 2020, Wyre will be launching native meta transaction support which will allow users to go directly into any DeFi interaction from their debit card. This will allow a new user to onboard into crypto in less than 20 seconds.

Nightfall Update — Batch & Scale with Zero Knowledge Proofs: EY released an update to their Nightfall open source and public domain tools. This update enables the first version of transaction batching — allowing up to 20 transactions at once under zero knowledge. This represents a 400-fold improvement in gas efficiency since the teams last OpsChain Public Edition prototype just over one year ago.

Ramp Instant Now Live: Ramp Instant is a radically better way to on-ramp users into crypto. When users first use the integration on any supported site, they’ll be asked to connect their bank account with Ramp. Then they initiative payment, authorize it with their banking app and it’s all done. It takes minutes, rather than the industry standard of 1 day+.

State Channels Developer Update #14: The first update in a while from the State Channels team but a welcome one. Liam from the team goes over the last few months of work including engineering updates, research updates and what’s coming next.
