🦄 EXCLUSIVE: Ethereum Documentary Plans to Sell $INFINITE Tokens to Fully Finance Production
TLDR When it came time to raise cash for Ethereum: The Infinite Garden,the first feature-length documentary about the world’s most active blockchain network, the producers had a logical choice: Ethereum tokens.
NEWS The team will seek to raise at least $1.5M, with a stretch goal of up to $3M, by selling $INFINITE tokens via Mirror, a blockchain-based publishing platform, director Zach Ingrasci and producer Carrie Weprin said in an interview with The Defiant. Depending on contribution size, backers will be rewarded with exclusive Infinite Garden NFTs designed by famed crypto artist pplpleasr.

💥 Adamant Targets Alameda With Contentious Governance Vote
TLDR What a can of worms. This weekend, Adamant Finance, a yield aggregator on Polygon, initiated a governance vote to “blacklist” wallets it said belong to Alameda Research, a crypto hedge fund that trades up to $10B a day in tokens and derivatives. The fallout has been fast and furious.
NEWS The action came in response to community concerns that a single entity controlling nearly half the Total Value Locked (TVL) in the platform posed an existential risk to the project. The entity’s outsized position enabled it to earn and dump a substantial share of ADDY token rewards.

Bumper is the DeFi protocol that protects the price of your crypto from volatility. Set the price to protect and your asset will never fall below its floor, but if the market pumps, your asset rises too. We call it CryptoGodMode.
Forget a Stop-Loss, which just trades you out when the market tanks. Forget Options which are complex, clunky and have fixed expiry windows. That's 50 year old technology from yesterday. Bumper is the DeFi future of tomorrow, where Makers of liquidity are diametrically connected to Takers of protection.
Unsurprisingly our Flashpaper triggered VCs to compete for a BUMP allocation, with $32m declined. And did we mention we’re backed by Block8, the Dev house that designed and delivered Havven? Check our upcoming DApp release for LPs, which runs natively on a mobile phone, so you can Bumper assets on the go.
At midday UTC on July 14 Bumper opens up its Liquidity Provision Program where early investors will be able to farm $BUMP and get special access to the Private Sale price starting at $0.60 (Public Sale $2.4). For early BUMP Farmers & Buyers,, we are offering an astonishing 300% APR or 100% for pure farmers.

🤖 The DeFi Future is Automated
In this week’s research essay, David Liebowitz analyzes the state of play in development of the Ethereum-based automation and chronicles the efforts of a new crop of players in the space, Gelato, Keep3r, and Chainlink.
A race is underway in DeFi innovation. Established players and upstart newcomers alike are in the running.
Gelato has been tinkering with use cases since 2019 and launched its production-ready V1 last July. Meanwhile, Keep3r network has been executing its own solution since late October 2020. And just last month Chainlink announced an Open Beta for Chainlink Keepers in the field of smart contract automation. The prize is automation, and from user-friendly trading strategies to infrastructure-level liquidation protection, the beginnings of its massive potential are only now being realized.
