Bye, baby. Let's go. Oh, this is awesome, my friends. I'll let everybody get to streaming in. Everybody get to streaming on then. We have an excellent show for you folks today. Just give me actually one moment. We'll get this thing on started. Thank you, everybody, for attending.
I guess I'll just kind of go over the kind of like the outline of the stream really quick and then we'll start diving straight into things.
I'm really, really excited about this one.
I know all you folks out there are excited about it too.
So Corolla obviously is having a major rebrand and UI,
ux overhaul.
It's going to make it easier, smarter, and more intuitive
for all web 3 users.
And then on top of that, even crazier,
Avalanche c chain transactions are gasless.
So we're going to talk a lot about that.
We're going to demo it.
We're definitely going to dive into how that's possible as well
And then so.
I'm joined here by my friend.
We have Akash Gupta.
He's VP of Core.
He's going to join the discussion.
He's going to talk about how user feedback shaped all these different updates
and what users can expect from this new user experience.
And then he's also going to talk about how Core is kind of positioning itself against the competition
and kind of what the difference is between Core and some of the other wallets that you may have used before.
So I guess we can really kind of dive straight into this thing,
Gacash, if you're ready for me, my friend.
I'll start things off with just can give us a high level overview
of Core Wallach rebrand and the upcoming changes.
Yeah, thanks for having me. Super excited of the heavy with you and everyone with the community and seeing people pouring in. It's amazing to be here.
Couldn't be more excited in the life cycle of core. We are firing on all cylinders.
The team has been doing phenomenally. I cannot be more proud of the team. So everything that I talk about today is obviously a testament to
the entire team that is working on this night and day to support the community, support
avalanche, support other chains, the chain of chains and everything we're essentially
doing here.
So first you want to actually mention that before we get into it.
Yeah, so things have been going really well.
I would love to obviously dive into how core is changing
and obviously for the better.
Obviously, we're evolving.
We're evolving more and more.
We want to obviously make things more seamless,
more intuitive, drive with the modern user experience.
And essentially, we want to retain everything that we've
that we've been doing and what users have loved about it,
but go one step beyond with the entire rebrand and refresh.
And so in the coming months, users will see or undergo these changes of a refreshed brand, a new look.
They already see the new logo, of course, that has been a great success.
People love the fact that it's clean, it's, you know, slick,
And something that is no longer kind of chasing these other animals that are around in the wallet sphere, right?
Like we have foxes, we have, you know, a bunch of different rabbits and so and so forth.
And, you know, here, core is just kind of making a stance where we are, we're here to stay.
We have a good...
established look and feel.
And this transformation is essentially shaped by,
you know, users' feedback.
So it's not like we have come up and, you know,
done this on our own women fancy.
We heard people loud and clear.
And, you know, it's essentially because people have been asking for it,
We want to have a consistent look and feel across our portfolio of products,
across the,
the browser extension, the mobile app,
as well as the web browser and the DAP that we actually have.
We were one of the first people to come up with it,
but this cohesive ecosystem, Apple-esque style of showing a
a combined user experience.
And now we're seeing people are either using the core on only the mobile device,
when they're commuting on the train on the subway in New York or anything that they're doing,
or when they want more complex operations to go on the extension and the web app and use that in tandem.
And having that entire user experience in One Flow is making things really, really good.
And we're getting some amazing feedback from users on it.
So yeah, I'll pass there, but happy to jump a little bit also on,
you know, some of the nuances and the principles of this design as well and why we did it if you want.
Oh, please, please.
Let's dive straight into it, man.
What are these different design principles?
Why did you decide to take this route?
Let's go, my friend.
Yeah, sure.
So I think user experience, usability,
heuristics were really, really important to us from the get-go.
We wanted to make sure that this entire brand design was promising,
and we're kind of blurring the lines between Web 2 and Web 3.
So the kind of key principles, which is clear navigation,
making sure that users could go from one place in Web 2 or Web 3 and blur that line in a very simple way,
get people onboarded, signed up, and get them activated in their first transaction on chain really easily,
and make sure that they can navigate seamlessly. So building for not just
you know, the sort of
crypto-native person, but also the
nob and the novice who's coming in
from, you know,
across different generations of people.
So clear navigation was obviously a really important thing.
The second principle was transparency.
So of course, when people come and they want to see the assets and see them on chain,
they want to make sure that what they see is what they get, balances, chains, network, state is well represented across the portfolio products.
across the D-Fi, they are collectibles and NFTs.
And everything is always sort of visible right there.
Like sometimes you can access different parts of the application in multiple ways,
allowing users that freedom, right, that they always want for, but also keeping things very simple.
And in addition to that, obviously, we wanted consistency.
So as you can see with the logo, with the look and feel,
things are very uniform.
We want to make sure that things when you're interacting with mobile,
you still feel like you are within the same ecosystem of apps.
You are seeing your portfolio, your balances,
your meme coins, or whatever it is you're interacting with.
in the same place at all times.
And having that feeling that you can trust this application was super important to us.
So those are some of the key principles that we obviously wanted to go into.
And these updates, of course, make core easier, smarter, more enjoyable to use.
And we want to obviously take this one step beyond and go also in the direction of having
more animations, more interactions, like making this entire thing feel, you know, one step further, like an upgraded experience from what we see with the other applications and the legacy wallets out there that, you know, have taken certain directions in terms of, you know, functionality, but have unfortunately compromised for user experience.
And, you know, of course, the last principle, but not the least was,
Security. You know, we wanted to obviously make sure that we're partnering with some of the best people building in-house security tooling, making sure that we're not showing malicious tokens, showing users clearly how to identify between malicious apps, you know, making sure that we are doing audits every now and then to ensure that our code is, you know, well checked.
We did go open source as well.
So I think that's a big deal for the community.
They wanted it.
It's been a blockbuster success to allow the ecosystem.
them to use the core wallet as well.
And that's been something that has been really, really important to us.
We've actually saved users north of nine figures
since the inception of a few different security procedures
and protocols that reintegrated inside the application.
users of course, loving not just the usability and the modern design,
but also the fact that they can come in and be like,
oh, my funds are secure here, I can find them here.
And that's really, really important from a design principle perspective too.
I would almost say almost the most important thing is ensuring that when I go to that wallet, my funds are still there.
Yeah, absolutely.
That's the most important thing.
Yeah, definitely.
Especially in...
in this world, you know, where we see so much happening with, you know,
rugs and so and so forth. So, you know, we can, we can talk a lot about that, you know,
and have a podcast of its own, but yeah.
Can we talk a little bit about, like, some of the challenges you faced, you know, like,
Because obviously, like, there's the Web 2 crowd, you know, they have a different, you know, they have a different understanding of the UI, Ux experience than let's say the Web 3 crowd, which is kind of actually used to this clunkiness for some reason.
Can you talk a little bit about the challenges you face by kind of building the building out this better UX?
Yeah, it's a great question. So we actually went, uh,
to like first principles when it came to thinking about this right we think about the beauty of what
web 2 users have have been able to enjoy right they have had the power of social sign-ons like
google like apple like twitter like sign up with you know facebook and so and so forth so they've been
really comfortable with some of the ways they can on board log and interact with applications on the
However, in the Web3 universe, we obviously have this concept of a self-custody wallet,
these technical terminologies that essentially users don't really understand when they're coming into the world of blockchain.
There's a steep learning curve.
So we wanted to provide this warm welcome where users can actually come to core.
firstly and just sign up with their Google or Apple username and password,
but they still have access to their private keys.
And essentially have that ease of user web 2,
but also have that security and decentralization of Web 3.
That was the first principle around onboarding
and bringing in the next wave of users
to allow them to be able to download or just
use the application and get on chain in a few clicks.
and not have to worry about finding a seed phrase
or so and so forth.
So that was the first most important thing
for balancing that fine act between Web 2 and Web 3.
Secondly, I would say it's, I think,
I think there have been a lot of good things that have happened on the,
in the Web 2 world in terms of Feasor experience that we,
you know, we don't need to reinvent the wheel, right?
We saw that we've,
There are some amazing applications with beautiful user experiences.
So why not bring some of that into the, into the, you know,
blockchain universe, right?
We see a lot of disk-populated applications.
They're super fragmented.
And essentially, we wanted to kind of unify a lot of those experiences under one
umbrella, under one screen, under one consistent experience.
And being able to do that was obviously a challenge because we have a lot of
applications and making sure that they want to own their own set of user experiences as well, have their own look and feel.
But Cora's actually been able to partner really well with some projects, with some Blue Chip,
FIFA and projects as well, gaming projects as well to make sure that
we're actually providing the holistic experience,
working closely with them to ensure that users are getting the best experience.
So really putting the user first, the voice of the user first has been a really important thing.
And solving for that actually made our life a lot easier.
It was something that we, it took us some time. I'm not going to lie,
but once we figured it out, we've kind of accelerated.
in, you know, at light speed essentially.
So it's been going really well there.
Those are a couple of the challenges,
but happy to obviously chat more later as well.
So I'm hearing this consistently while you're talking.
It's you talking about using user feedback.
And I think that's extremely important for us to highlight here because sometimes applications, they kind of just build things and they don't kind of think about, you know, what does the user actually kind of think about that.
Can you talk to me a little bit about the process you kind of went through to kind of gather user feedback and then how you kind of implemented it within core?
Yeah, I think our users are basically our biggest fans and they've pushed us a lot.
We have an amazing community. We have
We've grown a lot and just because of the fact that we've had user feedback.
And as we know a lot of changes, we obviously love to hear, you know, users' thoughts as well.
But, you know, I would like to say that user feedback has been vital in shaping and shaping core and, you know, and its evolution.
So what we essentially do is we obviously move at a very fast speed here.
But when we ship out features, when we make, you know, launch things, we are talking about
things, you know, in live streams here.
We have, we have blogs.
We have, you know, things on Twitter on different, you know, social channels as well.
We collect feedback via different channels.
People actually reach out directly and be like on Telegram or on Twitter or on Discord and be like, hey, I'd love this feature.
I'd love if this was here.
Or hey, this is kind of like, you know, a little off or we'd love to see if you can provide this kind of experience.
Also, a lot of the people, a lot of the users actually just go directly inside the application.
We have a place to request, you know, request features of, you know, if they want to submit bugs or feature requests, they can actually do that right there inside the application.
That's where we get most of our user feedback, to be very honest.
And those are the users who are, you know, the power users of the product, the ones who actually use it every day.
They obviously are biggest fans, but also, you know, they push us the most.
So obviously we look at that feedback.
It comes into our system.
It's autopopopulated inside a sheet and I and we look at it every couple of days.
And then we have an entire process to prioritize these requests,
bugs, these improvements, these, you know, these features.
And then obviously we have to look back at looking at the size of our team,
looking at the resources that we have, looking at the existing
strategy, priorities, vision that we've set together for, for obviously the future of core and then we start prioritizing it and it's kind of sketching it.
Like, you know, the design team that we have is phenomenal. As you can you can see this, the UX is unbelievable.
I think we actually even won an award last year with Fast Company for the best Web 3 UX wallet, which is amazing. So I think,
they essentially create wireframes,
and like things that we immediately discuss
based on user feedback.
And then we start, you know, prototyping things really quickly.
That's been, you know, one of the joys are working in,
you know, product management, product design, engineering,
and that's something that we do and then, you know,
start working on these features, and then reach out to a few power users,
alpha users, who are like, hey, is this something you want?
Is this something that,
you know, is in line with what you were expecting and or, you know, do a little bit of usability tests,
user research as well, and then start shipping it out. We like to move fast. We want to make sure that,
yeah, you know, sometimes things will be like 95, 97% accurate and very good to 2 to 3% of the times
we might want to learn and iterate and we're always here. But,
But yeah, we do have the ethos of wanting to move fast and providing users what they really asked for.
And it looks like you built out of fairly, fairly robust ecosystem of this kind of like feedback ecosystem as well so that you can kind of keep moving fast, but then innovating in a way that is beneficial to your overall end users as well.
So I just have to make sure I highlight that, my friend,
because I think it's extremely important,
especially for the audience out there as well,
to let them know, hey, you can give feedback directly
on the application and you have a team of people
who are actually looking at that feedback
and making adjustments based on it.
I think that's super important.
I've also been seeing a lot of really, really good feedback
about a very specific announcement that happens
very, very recently, if you would like to talk about it, my friend, my friend.
Absolutely, of course.
This is, you know, Core just launched gaseous transactions on Avalanche.
So all transactions in the C chain are going to be.
free, essentially. We cannot be more excited to do this. I think it's, you know, whether you're an active avalanche user or you're just exploring the network for the first time.
Core just makes it easier to transact on chain and you know, having to let users never worry about gas fees.
When I remember I was having a conversation with my
my grandmother and I was trying to make sure that she sets up a core wallet two years ago and
She was trying to do it. She's like what is gas?
You know like why are we talking about about gas like you know and that was like really interesting and
I'm like, yeah, that's true.
People don't know what Gway and all these things really are.
And it's a difficult concept to grasp.
And for most users actually are coming in,
and we want to obviously bring in the next wave of users.
We want to basically showcase the power of Avalanche
and the power of the primary network
and the power of the liquidity of the sea chain.
And at the same time, we want to just
go and go all in for this goal of, you know, bringing the masses on chain.
You know, we don't want to have users thinking about these these abstractions and these concepts,
especially when, you know, the internet has already been there and there's been enough
complex, complexity in the past with like protocols like TCP IP and you know,
why even like complicated things further. So this is a step in that direction in core going gasless.
We cannot be more thrilled.
Users have asked for it.
Of course, I'd love to even chat about what this even means,
Essentially, Core is now just covering gas fees directly,
which means you can participate in and enjoy
a variety of different verticals at no added cost.
So this includes gaming, Defi, Defi AI, and way more.
So you can even manage your staking rewards and explore new projects on Avalanche.
So yeah, gas is on us.
Wow, man. So first off, that's amazing just in and of itself.
Can you talk a little bit about this decision?
Why I guess this, my friend?
Yeah. Yeah, I think it's a really good question.
I feel like, firstly, no one's done this before.
So we want to obviously learn as we go and we want to take this a step further, truly
differentiate. And we can talk about how we're differentiating a little later too if we have time.
At the same time, it is sort of a goal, right?
Like we are here as Avalanche's native wallet designed for the seamless engagement across Avalanche's ecosystem and Avalanche L ones.
And we've also built, you know, built in support for all the upgrades, the A upgrade to the F upgrade now.
of supporting Avalanche's inner chain messaging protocol and way more to make sure that we provide this world-class experience and we bring the power of Avalanche to the masses.
So why actually do this, right?
There are four main reasons I would kind of highlight around why we want to remove this friction of gas fees.
Number one is just encouraging existing core users, just stay more active, explore avalanche-based opportunities, avalanche-based tools, the versioning ecosystem of Defi on Avalanche.
We feel like adding more friction there doesn't make sense.
Let's just run with it.
Al launch has really low gas fees anyways,
so why not just get that into core and get those users to just make that their experience much more seamless.
The second reason is we want to welcome more users,
more Avalanche users under the core ecosystem.
Core is growing and as it's the go-to wallet for Avalanche,
users don't need to go to other wallets when it comes to interacting with Avalanche.
In fact, you can stake here, you can do all the operations that you would never be able to do on like
a Metamask or Abbey or Phantom or whatever other wallets that are created out there when it comes to Avalanche.
we want to welcome those users to actually switch and be like,
hey, why are you doing this, that's a suboptimal experience?
Forget about it.
Like this is, you know, it's kind of like educating people a little bit,
like we, you know, making sure that they actually,
we're looking out for them in some sense.
And then the third thing would be, you know,
empowering people to just from all experiences, all levels, all ages,
you know, all demographics to come in and engage with the network.
I think when you and I actually go on chain and we're like,
you know, looking at complex defy operations across like different gaps,
we can still probably handle the fragmentation of
blockchains and assets across chains.
But I think when new people come in,
they actually just want to come in and activate and do like two transactions really quickly, right?
So when they come on core and they don't have any assets,
we actually just fund their gas. We want them to
come in and, you know, interact with it.
Like, what's the point of just signing up, creating a wallet, and not actually doing anything?
And, you know, in fact, by just providing them that little push that they really need is, it's something that, you know, we thought going gas this would really help it.
And lastly, I think kind of a similar to the previous point was like,
crypto novices don't need to get bogged down, right?
It's technical terminology.
It's a lot of jargon.
It's a lot of words that we throw inside the space,
unfortunately, sometimes more than we actually
want to and here we are now, you know, making it familiar, making it a warm welcome, making it easy to
understand, and actually abstracting this blockchain terminology by just, you know, making sure that
they just can simply toggle this feature on and then move on with your life, you know.
So you remove a
major, major friction point. I have to highlight it because for anyone out there in Web 3 who
has ever tried to onboard a Web 2 normie, I caution the rest of the team, they've completely
removed a major friction point. And that's the point where, so you can sign up for one thing
with CoreWallet with like just your regular Google email, just like you're typically used to.
And then the other kind of major friction point for people is actually,
actually funding that wallet, like figuring out how to fund that wallet, how to send,
because that's their first friction point. It's like, oh, I have to send something to this.
So now I have to get another account somewhere else to buy something else, but where do I get that?
And so I absolutely love that you and the team from like the feedback that you've got and were able to like completely take that out.
Now someone can just sign up with their Google and they can just,
Are you saying they can sign up with Google and then just immediately start
transacting on Adelais?
Absolutely. I think the way to look at it is awesome, right?
Like every step of like the journey, right? We have the onboarding step. We have like
the step where they just want to come in and do some use it really quickly. That's optimized now.
And then when you come in and you want them to engage and you want them to start doing things, that itself is also
you know, we've produced that learning curve and that friction there too.
So it's definitely, you know, we want to take those steps and those incremental steps to make sure that the experience is better.
But of course, we have a lot more to do as well.
You know, it takes time to build a lot of these things.
But that's the idea, right?
bringing the masses on chain, making sure that these consumer experiences are not just something that they can land on, but actually use when they come in and enjoy.
Yes, yes. As a matter of fact, you know what? We're going to stop teasing the people now, Akash. We got to let's hop into this demo, these gases transactions. I want to check these things out.
Sure thing. Let's let's get into it. I can't be more happy to do it.
So let's go here.
Let me know if you can see my screen.
And adding it to the stage, boom, here we are.
Yeah, amazing. Here we go. So here we are in core.
So as you can see, it's a beautiful new logo.
But at the same time, here we are.
We are in a connected state with the wallet.
And this is a wallet that I've had.
It's just something of, it's a seedless wallet,
which essentially means I just signed up with Google and Apple or whatever,
you know, one I had.
Of course, the user owns, owns the assets and has access to the private keys,
which we have talked about in previous, in previous sessions and live streams too.
But here we are, you know, we have, we've connected here.
And if I want to swap, right, so let's say I want to go from a box,
which I have, you know, point nine of and I want to get some USDC,
I just click on swap and you know, you get this like experience where
you get like, get free gas and it's automatically toggled on.
So you don't need to like worry about it.
You're not actually paying for gas.
You're getting really good rates.
And so it's just like an experience where,
Users can keep this as auto on, auto off,
however they want to go about it.
I like to keep it as auto on because gas is on us.
And yeah, you can learn a little bit more.
There are tool tips for users to understand why we're doing this,
how we're doing this.
And then, of course, just click approve.
And here we are processing this transaction.
And yeah, it's successful.
So you'll be able to see that at the bottom,
you got a swap successful little toast
that allows users to know that this has obviously gone through.
They can view the transaction on the Explorer.
And then, of course, they'll see the balance being reflected
on their portfolio as well.
Dude, this is absolutely excellent.
So we talked a lot, we talked about the why.
Can we talk a little bit about the how this is possible?
Yeah, well, okay, let me stop sharing, but yeah, I mean,
it's been a journey.
I think, obviously,
I think a lot of the magic is actually happening on the back end.
So we make sure that we have certain thresholds amongst within which we have to operate when it comes to,
you know, providing this experience around a
a no gas feeling on the C chain.
On the back end, we actually, we have created sort of a gas station, so to speak,
where users are allowed to operate within certain limits.
And then we have this capability where as soon as we know we're certain,
whether we're in this sort of certain threshold, we'll actually be able to,
you know, execute this transaction and this toggle pretty seamlessly.
So if we're actually not in those thresholds,
users will actually not see the toggle there itself.
And this actually allows for more activity on chain as well,
for the fact that we are
Just making sure that when these features are actually being overused,
we make sure that we have a more flawless experience behind the scene as well.
So it's kind of this idea of a feature flag where you just can see it when they have to,
and then if they're not eligible, they won't see it.
I see, I see.
Yeah, thank you for going over that.
And because one of the things that we've talked a lot about is just like the overall
user experience for core and just kind of seeing it, seeing the UI, like the refresh,
how everything kind of looks, it just looks super clean.
But can you talk a little bit about why Web3 needs a better wallet experience?
Yeah, I think about this a lot.
It's actually something that keeps me up at night.
And I've spoken about this in a few different keynotes as well.
But today, when you come to Web 3,
whether you're a D-JAN or a veteran or anyone, right,
you have to go on an exchange, from an exchange,
you need to get onto that exchange,
you need to sign up, you can do with KYCML.
From the exchange, you need to move funds to self-custody wallet.
Then you've got to figure out how to set up that self-custody wallet before you do that.
Then you've got to bridge assets from like chain X to chain Y to change Z.
Then you got to connect to some sort of bridge in order to do that.
In order to do that, then you got to go to like a third party DAP to connect to some sort of
defy application like AVE or whatever to ensure that you are in there.
And then you want to make sure that that app works and you've got to supply liquidity,
you got to borrow, whatever.
As you can just see, it's like a
It's a mouthful just to talk about it, right?
It's a pretty fragmented experience.
It's a lot of steps.
It's cumbersome.
It's complicated.
It's not for everyone.
It's not for the average schmojo, who is not tech savvy.
So I think one of the biggest things that we want to do right now is enable that tech
savviness and bring a unified experience via core, but you don't have to go through these
Brazilian steps to ensure that, you know, you can get on chain, kind of like getting on,
you know, the internet in some sense, so the new internet, right?
I think we are in that, in that phase where we can make,
large, we can take large steps, you know, material steps and innovation, innovate through like, you know, keep chipping away, but at the same time, take these like bolder bets and make sure that we're combining and unifying this experience. And that's, that's sort of what, you know, the part of the larger vision of core as well.
to provide this unified experience to be the one-stop shop or the, you know, I like to call it the UN of crypto, you know, where we aren't sort of just serving the needs of one chain or one user, but actually building for mass adoption.
I absolutely love that so much because it's it's super necessary as you were talking about all the different steps.
You almost start to just kind of like oh my man you know but we as web free people we don't think about it too much right because we're just right all the
all the time. But if I'm a web 2 user and I'm just used to, if I want to buy a concert ticket,
I just go on Ticketmaster and I hit buy. I don't have to go to an exchange and then figure
out all these different assets I need to fund on this specific chain and bridge it over,
you know, like no one is going...
No one who is a web to user is going to be able to use it or they're just going to find
extremely difficult and just going to say crypto, I don't need it.
I don't need it.
So it's great to hear that you are focusing specifically on that.
Can you talk a little bit about the different ways that Core kind of differentiates itself,
let's say from like a MetaMask or some of the other wallets out there?
Yeah, absolutely.
Let's firstly start with the obvious, which is the UX.
I think we are, we've taken a step in that direction
to actually unify rather than make it more clunky.
The second thing is the aspect of state.
We want to make sure that users can always see what network they're on,
how many assets they have, and engage with all of that
in one place and one unified way.
Gasless, that's another way that we've ensured that users can go about doing this in a very seamless way.
Obviously, core is, it wasn't launched as early as MetaMass, so we have some work to do as well on our end to make sure that we can,
in some sense catch up in some ways too.
We're not be here and brag about things without actually realizing
that we also have a lot of work to do.
But at the same time, we are kind of the only place for Avalanche.
So if you are
If you want to interact with Avalanche, if you want to stake on Avalanche,
if you want to delegate, validate, you want to experience the world of Avalanche L-1s and subnets and create your own,
you know, your own train, there's no other place you can do that except on core.
If you want to interact with, you know, the new upgrades that Avalanche is coming out with,
whether it's the upgrade or the F upgrade or everything, you know, with ACP 77 and, you know, a lowering of gas fees,
you know, where would you go?
There's no other place, no other wallet,
no other ecosystem that supports it except core.
You might be able to go to other wallets,
but it's not the same experience.
But all they just don't support it.
So Metamask and Rabby and whoever else, right,
the ones who've been around for a while,
they just haven't been able to find that niche
and go deep into that exact way to make sure that that experience is really good
for Avalanche users.
Of course, there are many other things, right?
The bridge, ensuring that that is something that only Avalanche has the bridge where you can move your assets from
Bitcoin to Avalanche and then you can borrow against your BTC.B.
That's something that we patented and we made sure that we were the first to bring that to market.
So of course that's a big differentiating factor because you know Avalanche has a very, very good versioning DFI ecosystem
to ensure that you can do these different activities and borrow against different assets.
But that is exclusive within the core wallet.
Yeah, I mean, there's a lot of there's a lot out there that you know we're doing of course with with native staking with
With with sticking inside the wallet itself like if you want to become a validator that you know and you want to
You know set that entire thing up and and start validating there's no other place to do that inside core like there's a whole other area inside of it which is
You know which is which is which is only in core
For you know setting up your own validator and and collect you know getting a
essentially rewards on chain.
Another area is the ad drop tool, right?
We were the first of our kind to actually
launched an adrop tool.
This was a blockbuster success.
We see a lot of usage of our adrop tool.
You know, it's mainly a public utility in some sense when it comes to using it.
And that can only and exclusively be used in core.
I can go on and on, but I will highlight one more before I kind of pause there.
But you can actually be on chain X, but sign on chain Y.
And that's something only core allows.
And that's this aspect of like,
not having to worry about which chain you're on,
but also just as long as you're logged in.
We have a patent that allows you to kind of sign on an inactive chain
as long as it's on core because core does that magic for you
with transaction simulation,
that screening and so and so forth.
So we have some simulations going on behind the scenes,
which are the wallets don't.
Because as I said, we've prioritized security as a first class citizen.
So we, those are some of our differentiators and that we're going for as well.
And something else I want to highlight as well is the ability for a web tool user to come on,
sign up via Google the way that they're just used to doing, and then
Because of these gases transactions, now they have the ability, one, to just make a transaction off the bat.
So now they're immediately using crypto.
That's awesome.
But beyond that, within the core application is staking and the ability to discover defy applications as well.
So this web 2 normie can actually just come to the application and discover an entirely new world that they weren't even aware of.
Absolutely.
It's a good point.
This is absolutely amazing, my friend.
I'm going to start winding things down as well.
I'm going to open things up for you.
You have any closing remarks for the people out there?
Anything else you want to shield?
Yeah, I mean, sure.
Thanks for, by the way, this is an awesome session.
You know, it's like fusing with positivity.
And, you know, we're seeing immense growth on core.
Users are loving it.
We're seeing things trending on different social channels.
We're seeing, you know, we're seeing a lot of folks talk a lot about these
cryptographic innovations that, you know, we're pushing out and we're pushing the space
further on and trying to make sure that, you know, this amazing technology and protocol
avalanche is actually supplemented with.
with a good UX as well.
I do want to call out that folks,
if you have questions, always reach out.
Our team is a very receptive to positive
and constructive feedback.
So I would love to hear from you all more often.
Of course, we're seeing immense growth.
We also try to grow in different ways within the team.
So if you want to get involved,
please reach out as well on X.
And I guess you can find the handle
somewhere in this in this live stream right below yes right there and yeah i would like to say that
you know our thesis is that new cryptographic innovations have changed and they've changed the way
consumers interact on chain
So as the world of blockchains emerge,
wallets will no longer serve just one purpose.
And wallets will emerge as well than what they have been today.
And they'll become the hub of on-chain interactions.
So for too long, you know,
Crypto-UX has suffered because of communities, because of tribalism.
And we're focusing on what specific chains want to do rather than doing what's best for the end user.
And we're at core, we're trying to actually consolidate rather than capture.
And I want to focus with that ethos and leave you guys thinking that if you want a unified experience across multiple chains, multiple VMs, multiple communities...
and have this one-stop shop for defy marketplaces,
you know, social utility on chain.
Look no further, you know, going down the core.
Dude, thank you, first of a gosh,
thank you so much for popping on and speaking about core.
I think the audience out there got a lot of excellent information specifically
about, you know, the differentiating factors of core and, and,
the reason why they should use that over, let's say, like a competitor,
because it is a better UI, UX experience.
They can more easily, let's say, onboard their friend into Web3 using it as well.
So hats off to you and the rest of the team.
And you guys built an amazing product.
And for the audience out there, we've been watching,
thank you all so much as well for tuning in as well.
If you want to follow Core,
You already know right down there at the bottom.
It's at core app.
Super, super duper simple.
Or let's say that you just actually started to tune in and you missed this.
You can either replay this live stream as soon as it's over, my friend,
or we actually have Avalance Live that recently just launched on
Spotify, Apple Podcasts, all the major streaming platforms.
So we're going to get this episode up.
Hopefully we can get it up within 24 hours by tomorrow.
So you folks can check it out there as well,
where you're on your drive to or from work.
But thank you folks so much for popping on today.
Akash, thank you again, man.
Thank you, Brevy.
It's been a pleasure.
Thanks to being such an amazing host.
I appreciate you, dude, man.
I thank you so much, my friend.
To everyone out there, thank you guys so much.
I'm going to go ahead and end this thing, my friends.
But I'm going to end this thing by saying simply peace.
And ending the stream, ending
