ARGENT BRAAVOS WALLET

gm everyone - let’s dive into the big stories this week from the world of crypto!
 
TLDR:

• Crypto Twitter is migrating to Warpcast
• EigenLayer TVL almost doubles in 24 hours
• We launched an epic new security feature

 Farcaster sign-ups skyrocket 
Decentralized social media platform Farcaster is having its hockey stick moment. Its daily active users (DAUs) have shot up following the launch of ‘Frames’. Frames are small apps that run natively within Warpcast, a Twitter/X-like app that has been developed by Farcaster.

Not one to sit on the sidelines, we decided to see what all the hype was about. So we created an Argent account on Warpcast and started looking around. We think Warpcast has great potential, and if you want to jump on the bandwagon, then you can do so from this link. We’ll be posting more over there in the future.
 EigenLayer TVL soars
Ethereum restaking protocol EigenLayer saw a huge spike in TVL when it temporarily lifted caps for all tokens. EigenLayer has caps on its TVL to promote decentralization, but it plans to lift them permanently in the near future.

EigenLayer is a protocol built on Ethereum that allows users to restake their ETH and earn rewards from multiple protocols. To learn more about EigenLayer, we recommend reading this blog post from ConsenSys.
 Argent launches Fraud Protection
Crypto scams are absolutely everywhere. Even if you're a crypto native, they're hard to spot. To battle this, we’ve launched Fraud Protection, a detection system that warns you of known scams on Starknet. 

Fraud Protection consists of three main features: Anti-phishing, transaction warnings and transaction simulations. It’s available on Argent X right now and is coming to Mobile as early as next week.
