Another week, another Cartesi Weekly. Dive in for the roundup of what happened this week 🐧 Our DevAdvocacy Lead, Joao Garcia, started an important conversation on why DeFi needs a better execution environment. It’s becoming obvious that the current DeFi often optimizes for EVM constraints rather than true financial innovation, holding it back from matching TradFi capabilities. Get the full scoop in this first episode of the series of 1-minute video bites unpacking this complex topic: → https://x.com/joaopdgarcia/status/2021574868819419447 And if you missed the article expanding on this reflection, check here: → https://x.com/joaopdgarcia/status/2018688089258865078 João also joined House of Chimera for an engaging X Space, discussing what Cartesi brings to the table, how our app-specific rollups are designed to meet the need for greater compute and expressivity, and how they enable developers to utilize Ethereum more effectively through our VM. If you missed it, catch up on the recording: → https://x.com/HouseofChimera/status/2021588740599398683 In celebration of the upcoming Lunar New Year, we’ve joined Galxe with the “Horse of Linux Power” quest. Participants have the chance to learn more about Cartesi and earn $CTSI rewards until March 1st. The Red Envelope will bring good fortune to many!

Espresso Foundation announced the $ESP token is live and claimable now for anyone qualifying for the airdrop! This marks a significant step forward for composability in the ecosystem, and we congratulate Espresso on this milestone.
