# This week on Base: Charts, onchain hoodies, local stablecoins, and more *An onchain fashion brand. Charts. Local stablecoins in seven countries. Rodeo gets an iOS app. Here's what's happening onchain.* By [This Week on Base](https://paragraph.com/@thisweekonbase) · 2025-03-21 --- **Markets in motion** A blank chart. Slowly, a pattern emerges. Colors shift. Bars rise and fall. Meaning takes shape. [_Charts_ by jvmi](https://x.com/chartsbyjvmi) is a meditation on markets, movement, and what we choose to value — and 10,000 minted out this week. Every chart starts from nothing, evolving into something distinct — and if you want to change what you've created? Burn it and start again.

[MNSTRM](https://x.com/mnstrm_adoption) just dropped 300 hand-embroidered hoodies for [COLLECTION 000](https://shop.slice.so/store/2278), each one tied to a digital collectible. ![](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/872f3e3bb87d3368d248681dabad6c0b.gif) **Stablecoins are going global** The global economy has always been fragmented. Walled-off currencies, expensive remittances, and financial systems designed for the few, not the many. That changes now. [From New Zealand to New Mexico, stablecoins are bringing local economies onchain](https://x.com/base/status/1902773344036180250): **NZD** – New Zealand operates in a time zone that makes global trade difficult. A real-time, 24/7 NZD stablecoin lets businesses transact whenever they want. **BRL** – Brazil’s economy is heavily restricted, and forex fees eat into earnings. An onchain BRL makes international trade seamless. **TRYB** – Moving Turkish Lira in digital markets is slow and costly. TRYB enables instant settlement, 24/7. **MXN** – Most of Mexico is underbanked, and remittance fees are sky-high. An onchain MXN cuts costs and expands financial access. **CAD** – Canada has one real-time payments network, Interac, and it’s bank-owned. An onchain CAD opens it up for anyone to build with, no permission needed. **NGN** – Nigeria’s financial system is slow, expensive, and lacks liquidity. Regulated, onchain NGN solutions offer more. **IDR** – Millions of Indonesians lose ~$720M a year to remittance fees. IDR onchain brings lower costs, speeds up payments, and expands access. Bringing local currencies onchain creates a global economy that works for everyone, everywhere.

It’s time to step off.** For years, creators have been trapped in closed platforms—forced to chase algorithms, fight for visibility, and build audiences they don’t actually own. Onchain changes that. The [Rodeo iOS app is here](https://rodeo.club/), bringing the tools for onchain creation straight to your phone. Now available in the App Store. The future of social belongs to the builders.
