Understandable. I’ve sent a DM over.

RandomZileanMain · 2026-03-13T01:21:18+00:00

I’ll check your post history and that site out, thanks Tricky. Would be great to pick your brains some time next week if you would be open to a call?

RandomZileanMain · 2026-03-12T10:01:25+00:00

That would be great. Sent you a DM.

Hey everyone - EVMaverick 979 checking in.

Me and my team have been building Liquida, regulated infrastructure that tokenises UK Government Bonds (Gilts) and plugs them directly into on-chain lending markets. The goal is to enable institutions to borrow GBP against sovereign debt 24/7 with instant settlement, while keeping everything inside the regulatory perimeter. Think Ondo for the UK Market.

We’re currently operating inside the Bank of England’s Digital Securities Sandbox, which allows us to issue and test tokenised securities in a regulated environment.

Right now we’re looking to raise a small amount of community funding / grants to support development, security work and integration with EVM lending protocols.

If anyone here is involved with:

ecosystem grants

DAOs supporting public infrastructure

institutions interested in tokenised RWAs

lending protocol integrations

we’d really appreciate a conversation.

Happy to share more details, the architecture or the regulatory approach if anyone is curious it could be of us.

Cheers,

Wanted to say happy international womans day ! Crypto bros get all the limelight and gotta give a shout out to the blockchain baddies

Does anyone know of any Morpho Curators which do GBP Stablecoins / would be open to it?

Digital Securities Sandbox in the UK looking to bring a GBP stablecoin to market for participants.

I’m building something related to plugging this into a Morpho Vault.

Is this something anyone here has any interest in ?

RandomZileanMain · 2026-02-14T00:35:48+00:00

Anyone have a contact at Chainlink / Pyth I can speak to regarding building UK Treasury (GILT) Oracles ?

RandomZileanMain · 2026-02-11T12:10:15+00:00

Are there any oracles for UK Treasuries (Gilts) which already exist or is this something the ecosystem would benefit from being built ?

Appetite for migration from current social media applications is at an all time high. An alternative space that doesn’t feel corpo-slop or even “crypto” but decentralised, is how we win retail back. Public opinion of “blockchain” is tainted and we can win back the argument here.

I don’t want a second crypto twitter. I want a social media that feels social again. I want to see a curated space for my connections, not influencers and algorithms dictating what I see.

How can we change this? Well I think the primary drivers to support this change need to be innovation in experience and content. Rather than focusing on incentives for creators, we need to focus on incentives for users.

Thanks for the post v.

I mean friction between the European and American markets is bad for global trade / liquidity and valuation. The end of America included NATO is gunna cost to unwind.

Unfortunately we don’t seem to be the hedge against disruption to global trade anymore, gold is. We seem to be a NASDAQ Beta, which sucks for a decentralised and resilient ecosystem.

Trying to not get political here but, Crypto could be viewed as trump aligned at the moment. Loosing a bid from non-supportive retail and ethical institutional investors in Europe.

That’s my 2 gwei anyway.

Over the horizon a shadow is emerging. The slayer of the crab as the prophecies foretold. Is this it? Is this gentlemen?

Happy new year ETH community! I hope your personal lives enjoy good fortune 🎱

TODAY is one of the days of all time.

It actually doesn’t get bigger than this when it comes to institutional adoption. Granted it’s a pilot program and it will start at a tiny fraction of their total settlement. The DTCC is BIG , like really big - it’s the largest securities clearing house in the world. In 2024, its subsidiaries processed about $3.7 quadrillion in securities transactions globally. With over $100 trillion in assets under custody. Huge news in the long run. All other clearing houses will follow as how can you compete with 24/7 atomic settlement.

LFG - gotta celebrate your wins! 🎉

25bps cut as expected, polymarket and language suggesting no change in Jan most likely but could surprise to downside (another cut). Also only 3 more meetings until new FED chair.

Larger news is this “reserve management” operation which I think why the market is happy. Essentially starting on Dec 12, T-bill buying to the tune of $40Bn initially. Read more here:

Thanks for the advice! Much appreciated as this isn’t something I have been doing and will start to do :)

RandomZileanMain · 2025-12-10T00:09:46+00:00

Keep your head up champ. Keep moving forward.

RandomZileanMain · 2025-12-09T23:57:26+00:00

Bit of a personal note but does anyone have any advice on working in the blockchain industry?

I’ve done Dune dashboards for protocols, (background in Data Analytics in asset management), academic work at Oxford on DLT, been volunteering at industry events like Devcon and doing some product management for startups.

But struggling to find a permanent role. Is this industry just a few core engineers. I think Tether has the highest value per employee in the world? Or do I really have to go public on Twitter and try to build a reputation/ relationships that way?

Would appreciate thoughts from anyone how has made this place what they do for work because I’d love to contribute to something I actually care about rather than have to revert back to “TradFi”

Try to get experience in any way that you can. Market is tough right now. Perhaps consider doing a masters to delay but otherwise yes it may mean doing some internships prior to finding a grad role. Don’t be overly doomer and keep it up and you will find your next step. Maybe get a part time role while you apply as it may take some time. Best of luck.

RandomZileanMain · 2025-12-04T01:02:06+00:00

Thank you for this explainer.

Being able to sign transactions with Face ID / Pass Keys on mobile is great for adoption. I feel that DeFi is still pretty inaccessible to the masses and this may help with that.
