Zignaly: Reflections From The Past Week

The Push For Transparency

Following the SBF / FTX / Alameda implosion, fostering trust in the Web3 ecosystem has never been more important.

In this respect, Binance has taken the lead with making its wallets public plus the balances therein & is now set to roll out an innovative Proof of Reserves model. Ultimately, Merkel trees will join the action in accordance with Changpeng Zhao’s (CZ) commitment to rebuild trust.

I believe these are impressive ideas that will help resolve the issue of transparency for centralized custodial systems within the Web3 space. While decentralization remains the ultimate goal, I find merit in CZ’s argument the other day on a Twitter Spaces AMA that for the growth of the industry, it is essential that we take stock of how easy it is to onboard new users to CEXs before they come to grips with the self-custody architecture.

On that note, I find these developments extremely beneficial for Zignaly too. With respect to assets under management, the social investment platform is a non-custodial service. This is because Zignaly is only a service provider marketplace. They don’t hold any customer funds that are kept on the customer’s exchange account, that is, Binance.

Zignaly co-founder Abdul Rafay Gadit has been quite vocal on Twitter having requested CZ to extend the Proof of Reserves to members of the Binance Broker Program of which Zignaly is one of the leading participants.

Abdul Rafay on Twitter: "Hi! The projects using #Binance Broker APIs to build innovative products, can they somehow use this system as well? Customers need comfort and this would be a great help! ✌️ / Twitter"

If Binance does indeed provide this functionality for its brokers, I believe this will add to the trust that Zignaly already enjoys amongst the Crypto community.

The Profit Sharing 2.0 Upgrade

With the beta version going live for select community members, I have had the opportunity to play around with the new module and have to admit that it is a powerful upgrade to the current system.

You can find my experiences & screenshots at the links below.

Concluding Thoughts

With the Web3 / Crypto space going through an extremely tough time, it is heartening to know that Zignaly continues to build. The new upgrade will greatly enhance the overall user experience and provide new functionalities that should help set the project apart as a leading provider of social investment solutions.
