Hey everyone!

**We made several key updates:**
--------------------------------

*   Enhanced onboarding with AA (no more gas fees) and social login for a web2-users experience - testing it (will launch by the end of this week)
    
*   integrated Base blockchain - testing it (will launch this week)
    
*   Hosted the Frames Hackathon in London (Farcaster’s feature), where our team started building a crypto market prediction Frame. We’ll launch it this week. Here is happy picture of London’s builders [https://www.linkedin.com/posts/ox-bid-25a557250\_i-recently-and-spontaneously-organized-a-activity-7161002695447732225-civT?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=member\_desktop](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/ox-bid-25a557250_i-recently-and-spontaneously-organized-a-activity-7161002695447732225-civT?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop)
    
*   Launched a simple referral program offering $5 for 5 new users
    
*   Gathered insights from crypto user interviews, indicating that crypto natives use web3 wallets for airdrops, DeFi, memes (play with market) but not for long-term investments. We're exploring **_meme tokens trading_** as a potential hook for Bolide.
