Another week of exciting events deserve a quick newsletter recapping some of the biggest updates. Read all about our recent ventures below and stop by our community channels to stay in the know!

New Auto-Compounding Strategies

This week we’ve added three new Trader Joe pools to our massive list of auto-compounding opportunities. These are the following:

  • AVAX - MONEY
  • AVAX - DFIAT
  • AVAX - VTX

Interested in any of these pairs? Head to our compounding page to see the yields available on any of them, along with many other pools!

Alpha on Discord

Our internal channels on Discord have always been open to active contributors to Snowball through the ‘Snowballer’ role. This means contributors can always stay up to date on everything Snowball. That is where the alpha truly lies.

Through the CollabLand plugin/bot, we’ve now enabled anyone with over 10,000 xSNOB to automatically earn the ‘Snowballer’ role. The #collabland-join channel has been created, and through it you are able to easily verify your wallet address and earn the role.

We welcome all who believe in the future of Snowball to an even more intimate experience through these channels and look forward to seeing many of you there!

EMDX AMA Recap

Following our great AMA with EMDX last week, we’ve published a recap article for those who missed it and would like to see the questions and answers! Check it out here.

New DeFi University Content

The newest addition to Snowball’s DeFi University is an in-depth course on different consensus mechanisms used within blockchain technology. Of course, it describes Avalanche’s amazing and aptly named ‘Snowball Algorithm’ consensus mechanism that allows it to perform so well.

Check out the 3rd year course here, or check out all the content we have available here.
