ICYMI, turns out the "most exciting project in defi" was a giant house of cards and collapsed. Consumer crypto lending platforms that were gambling on it are now insolvent and tons of normal users are screwed.
But hey, with prices collapsing and tons of scam projects getting flushed out, we forecast 12-15 months of reduced bullsh*t in the industry!!
Here's why the collapse happened: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTBBBy7IYhI

Early startup with traction, 600k users across four countries, $130M monthly transaction volume on our financial platform.
Today we mainly help people in Venezuela, Argentina, Colombia, and Peru access US dollars to save, pay employees, buy things, and send money cross-borders. See: https://twitter.com/reserveprotocol/status/15245305927417405...
Ultimately we are aiming to create non-government-run asset-backed money that won't ever inflate and can be held and transacted privately peer to peer. See: https://reserve.org/about/

Our long-term goal is to offer an alternate currency that is essentially a modernization of commodity money – a cryptocurrency backed by a basket of low-volatility real-world assets. This would provide an alternative to USD that is actually stable enough to use as money. (No, BTC is not the answer. No, algorithmic stablecoins are not the answer.)

Our users are transacting $1 million per day on our platform now. We've hired four great engineers via this HN post and are continuing to patiently build our engineering team.
Here's a 10-min intro: https://www.loom.com/share/826f7519c5a34a9e97400b7715aef56e
With our digital USD app built on react native and flask, we help our users in Venezuela and Argentina cope with hyperinflation. Users can buy USD with their local currency in order to hold and transact freely in dollars, something they can't easily do otherwise.
Unless you have experienced high inflation and capital controls you may not understand our product – basically, if your money is losing its value quickly and you aren't allowed to convert to a stable currency, that really sucks. Our app helps you solve that, hence "BitTorrent meets CashApp."
We’re a silicon-valley-born project backed by Sam Altman and Peter Thiel personally, but these days we’re spread across the US, Latin America, and Europe. We’re open to team members from anywhere.
Long term, we're on our way to offering a stable asset-backed cryptocurrency that is detached from the US dollar.
