πΈ Gnosis Pay Rivals Neobanks
There was a time when neobanks offered extremely competitive foreign exchange rates. The recent launch of the Gnosis Pay stack along with CowSwap and Monerium's EURe changes the game. Every wallet can now build a better on-chain neobank all while giving users the ability to retain full custody of their funds.
I remember the time when great foreign exchange rates were a reason to switch to neobanks. Now compare Revolut vs @CoWSwap on Gnosis. Together with @gnosispay, every wallet can build a better onchain neobank! pic.twitter.com/WQl3Vh0KuZ

π« API3 x Gnosis Chain
API3βs dAPIs are aggregated from first-party oracles directly on the native chain. This means that you always know where your data comes from and never have to rely on cross-chain bridges as a centralized point of failure for your dApp. This week, API3 announced that their managed dAPIs have officially launched on the API3 market on Gnosis Chain!
Managed dAPIs have officially launched on the API3 Market.

π§πΎβπ» Gnosis Chain Core Devs Call
The weekly Core Devs Call took place this week ~ the recording of the call is linked below!
π€ Gnosis AI
A new web3 infrastructure layer is being built right now with AI. Projects like Autonolas make it possible to bring external APIs, automation and AI on-chain. The implications are huge and Gnosis Chain is working closely with teams like Autonolas to leverage OmenETH markets and the RealityETH oracle. Not only is a renewed focus on prediction markets coming to fruition, an entirely new landscape is arriving and Gnosis is poised to, well, do what Gnosis does best - build. This new section of the Gnosis Chain Weekly Recap is dedicated to AI on Gnosis Chain.
π¦Ύ Kleros + OmenETH + RealityETH + Gnosis Chain
Martin Koppelmann, Gnosis Co-Found and GnosisDAO core contributor, released a new project which allows a bot to make autonomous trades on prediction markets using a OmenETH, RealityETH and Kleros stack as the final arbitrator. Check out the link below to learn more!
Fantastic experiment by @koeppelmann! What if a bot could make autonomous trades on prediction markets? π€
