AVALANCHE WEEKLY UPDATE (WEEK 46) | Week of high volatility in late November/early December 2021
A market-wide drop occurred last week, and Avalanche Ecosystem was one of the casualties, falling from $145 to $100.57 (30.53%) and ending the week at $110.42. This has an effect on the value of grafted Avalanche ecological projects. Apart from that, there are still some noteworthy events ongoing; kindly remain updated with Coincu.

Shopping.io announced a 50% discount on any purchase with AVAX on their platform on November 30
Avalanche will become available on O3 Labs Wallet
SoftBank, ZMT Capital, and Binance are all supporters of the O3 wallet and swap protocol. With the Swap protocol, most major networks can do cross-chain swaps. In addition, it enables safe trading with no limitations and low fees across many prominent DEXs. So O3 users can utilize Defi across chains and gain O3 token incentives. It also makes bridging and collaborating with other chains a breeze. This could allow Avalanche users to work permissionlessly across chains. Users can join a USDC cross-chain pool and mine several O3 vaults. With these pools, avalanche users may find more yield throughout chains. Avalanche is now available on all Ethereum L2s and L1s in one application.
DEX AMM

If there is enough liquidity for PEFI on YetiSwap, it will be available to buy on the Penguin app. A new YetiSwap feature called “NFT Staking” allows Penguin Collectibles (like your Penguin Astronaut or Ghoul NFT) to earn interest and YTS prizes.

The Club Penguin dApp is intended to add value to iPEFI beyond the current APYs and launchpad allocation. The Avalanche ecosystem rewards Penguins for staking iPEFI. Stake-ception is a single-asset iPEFI staking mechanism. To get BOOFI incentives, users must stake iPEFI inside the BOOFI Iceberg. The Iceberg will be live in the Club Penguin dApp for 4 days to secure yields. We’ll also promote BooFinance so people can get involved.
Lydia Finance announced an IFO (initial farming offering) for the token of upcoming yield farm AvaOne

AVME shared the reasons to switch from MetaMask to their wallet
Many Avalanche users have had the challenge of finding a wallet that meets the required security standards. Metamask is a popular Ethereum wallet that has been criticized for its speed and lack of features.
AVME is a blockchain-based security project that strives to offer superior solutions. AVME’s core product is the first desktop wallet for Avalanche.
Islander, a marketing platform, launched on Fuji testnet
Islander Testnet has been launched on the Avalanche network. Entry is now open for participants to be included in the upcoming airdrop. 10,000,000 $ISA will be distributed equally among participants!
Conclusion
Last week, the crypto market was chaotic, but at the total of November, the Avalanche ecosystem and the $AVAX value both had big breakouts. A number of new features have been implemented. In addition to that, the games’ visuals are stunning.
Hopefully, the Avalanche’s top nft games and superb Dapp Defi are sure to return in December.
