Gabriel Cardona expressed:  We’re not building a bigger/faster Ethereum. We’re building the Internet of Finance VM, subnets and Avalanche consensus are the primitives of a new financial paradigm from which many blockchain/distributed-tech innovations and paradigms will emerge. Approach this with a new mind.

The community are hoping that the scaling of Avax network will resolve gas fees compared to other network. They are also wondering if there will be an Avalanche browser plugin wallet like Ethereum / Polkadot?

Emin Gun Sirer retweeted:  Happy to announce the beta release of the Avalanche Wallet SDK. Leave UTXO and address management to the library and worry about what you want to do.

Emin Gun Sirer expressed:  DeFi on Avalanche AVAX is growing rapidly. New users, assets, and applications are joining the community rapidly to tap into the vibrant AVAX DeFi ecosystem.

That growth is despite a bridge that has had many issues for users. An upcoming, first-of-its-kind bridge is a lot faster and 5X cheaper, and will open the floodgates for liquidity to flow into Avalanche.

This is where I’ve found Markr to be an invaluable tool for me to understand what’s happening across Avalanche DeFi. For months, it’s been my go-to dashboard for tracking total value locked in applications and daily volumes on an aggregate basis.

With its recent upgrade, users can not only grasp trends in Avalanche DeFi, but also use its DEX aggregator to find the most competitive price for swaps across the many AMMs on Avalanche.

Users can see the best venue for their swaps at any trade size and execute directly through the app. That is a major leap forward in the AVAX user experience.

Clearly, iomarkr has found a market for this feature. In the first six days of the DEX aggregator feature, they surpassed 5K transactions. I look forward to seeing the next update from the team to see how much it’s grown since.

The upgrade also adds more detailed application information, and a token page to discover AVAX ecosystem tokens, track their prices, and validate contract data.

Finally, the upgrade partially includes the ability to deposit and withdraw liquidity on and Pangolin DEX balance tracking for I Canary DEX. I suspect other applications will be integrated as well, making Markr a portal for everything DeFi on Avalanche. Which project should I dive deeper into next?

Community Response:  Verso and Penguin, Avalanche desktop wallet + decentralized antivirus, AVME, and the community have named several other names.  We need to see what Emin explores in the forth coming weeks.
