Odaily Planet Daily News: Fragments, the developer of the Ampleforth protocol, announced that Coinbase Ventures has made a strategic investment of $1 million in SPOT, a decentralized low-volatility commodity currency (flatcoin) under the Ampleforth Foundation. As part of the transaction, SPOT is currently available on Ethereum and will be launched on Base. In addition, Aerodrome Finance, the DEX on the Base chain, will also launch related new markets on Monday. (The Block) Last March, Base published a blog post announcing the four major directions supported by its ecological fund: 1. Stablecoins (flatcoins) that can track inflation rates; 2. On-chain reputation platform; 3. On-chain limit order book (LOB) trading platform; 4. Safer DeFi, which includes tools that can prevent smart contract code vulnerabilities or protocol logic errors, as well as the ultimate on-chain insurance and insurance agreements, or any other products that can provide critical support to users when smart contracts fail. In addition, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong has also said that flatcoin will be the next generation of stablecoins.
