Stylus Saturdays, 24th August 2024
Come one, come all, welcome to another round of Stylus Saturdays!
Thank you for tuning in last week to learn more about https://renegade.fi. To recap, Renegade is building a MEV free dark trading platform powered by Stylus. Each week we include project developments we’re aware of, and focus on a specific project building with Stylus.
Arbitrum Stylus is a highly gas efficient and flexible technology for building fully composable EVM contracts with WASM. You can use your Stylus contracts with Rust, C, and C++ as a drop-in replacement for Solidity/Vyper as you would a normal contract!
This means safer, more performant contracts, that are easier to understand. Stylus is finally in the countdown to mainnet, with less than 20 days to go!
Entropy Labs Stylus grant RFQ
Entropy Labs have posted a proposal for a Stylus grant program, and are looking for feedback: https://forum.arbitrum.foundation/t/rfc-fund-the-stylus-sprint/26437

Crypto Valley Exchange (CVEX) is a perpetuals exchange offering up to 1000x leverage, with support for also trading commodities alongside crypto. It’s currently in testnet!
