1/ The clock is ticking on MiCA compliance. Transitional periods are ending. After July 1, 2026, no authorization = illegal operations across the EU. 🧵

Tomorrow 🛸 Starbase 9:30 AM — luma.com/utj2psfz Meetup 6:30 PM — buff.ly/r1WB72p 📍Braga, Subvisual HQ

No 7-day waits. No minimum thresholds. No "account under review." Payments hit instantly. Or set custom rules: hold for milestones, auto-split to collaborators, release at campaign end. Logic lives on-chain. Executes exactly as defined. That's programmable money. buff.ly/Hmg1SwL

1/ MiCA is operational. The compliance reality is harsh. 45% of issuer applications turned down. Only 16 stablecoins compliant. After July 1, 2026, no authorization = illegal operations across the EU.

Tools that changed how we shipped in 2025: 🛠️ Claude Code (agentic coding that works) 🛠️ Dokploy (self-hostable PaaS, no price tag shock) 🛠️ Perplexity (agentic search) 🛠️ @ethui.bsky.social (shameless plug, it’s our own local Ethereum dev tool) What changed how you build?

1/ Podcasts that kept us company in 2025 🎧 (Including two shameless plugs for our own)

Another year building together ✨ To everyone we worked with in 2025: thank you for trusting us with your ideas. Wishing you a well-deserved break and happy holidays from the team.

1/ Asked the team what technical reads (and watches) stuck with them in 2025. Their picks:

Everyone came in from across the country for a few days for another get-together. Reviewed 2025, planned for 2026, and ran a game competition that got surprisingly intense. Apparently, Crokinole can get very intense 😄 😅 Remote is our default, but these moments together hit different.

1/ Most teams think compliance is a checkbox. It's not. It's a moat. Early movers who get stablecoin regulation right have a head start that's hard to replicate. 🧵

Web3 in 2025: Infrastructure got serious (two Ethereum hardforks, Porto, ethui Explorer) Markets matured (Polymarket's ICE deal, DEXs hit $1T volume, stablecoins everywhere) Regulation stayed messy (GENIUS Act progress, but uncertainty deepens) What Web3 moment changed how you built this year?

1/ Building a competitive liquidation bot means solving problems that have nothing to do with the blockchain. The liquidation function is one line of code. Everything else is where you win or lose.

1/ Compliance is expensive. So why is stablecoin regulation good news? Because it unlocks the market you actually want. Banks, payment processors, and enterprises sat on the sidelines when rules were unclear. 🧵

Starbase x AmFi 🚀 Partnering for Starbase on Jan 9. AmFi is building regulated blockchain infrastructure for private credit in Brazil—connecting originators & investors with transparency and compliance. Grab your spot 👇 luma.com/utj2psfz

1/ Stablecoin regulation is a reality. MiCA, GENIUS Act, Singapore, Hong Kong, UAE—all have frameworks now. We just published Part 1 of our Stablecoin Regulation Playbook. Read it: buff.ly/X92sgwm

Braga Blockchain • Jan 9 🔗 2025 recap + 2026 forecast with the community. Closing Starbase @ Subvisual with food & debate. 6:30 PM Register 👉 buff.ly/Vy7bT54

1/ Your DeFi position just went from 150% to 108% collateral ratio overnight. A bot somewhere is about to liquidate it. Gabriel Poça built one. These are his notes.

"Sorry, your country isn't supported." Creators outside major markets hear this constantly because payment rails can't reach them. Stablecoins fix this. Anyone with a wallet can support anyone. No borders. No conversion fees. Just the internet. buff.ly/0wgcO5N

1/ 🧪 Alchemy Conf 2025 Roundup 11 talks. Here's what you missed 👇 #AlchemyConf #Elixir

In Liquity V2 and forks like Orki, every borrower opens a trove that stores collateral and debt. Key metric: Collateralization Ratio (CR). Fall below MCR? Liquidation risk. Day 1: 1,500 USD ETH, 1,000 borrowed → 150% Day 2: ETH -20% → 120% Day 3: ETH -10% → 108% → Risk Read more: buff.ly/6L61bcx

Your local blockchain shouldn't need external tools to explore. ethui connects directly to Anvil—fully local, no external dependencies, instant data fetching. See it in action 👇

Liquidation bots keep DeFi protocols from collapsing when prices swing fast. Gabriel Poça built one and breaks down how they work: from monitoring troves to staying competitive against other bots. Read the full article: buff.ly/6L61bcx

Starbase @ Subvisual 🛸 Jan 9 in Braga Builder's space, Web3 conversations, 2026 trends. Limited seats: luma.com/utj2psfz

1/ The final #AlchemyConf talk 🎬 Full talk: buff.ly/Ig6FBH0 @wojtekmach.bsky.social on "gen_http" 🤔

⚡Subvisual organizes developer events like the Alchemy Conf, Elixir Meetups, Braga Blockchain, Coimbra.js, and Starbase. Developers and founders show up to discuss what's working in practice vs. what looks good on paper. The conversations are focused on real problems, tested solutions, and tools 💬

The final #AlchemyConf talk is live 🎥 @wojtekmach.bsky.social on the case for symmetrical HTTP libraries in Elixir—"gen_http" as a shared foundation for clients and servers. 👉 buff.ly/Ig6FBH0 #Elixir #MyElixirLang

The next Patreon won't be a platform. It'll be a settlement layer that any app plugs into. Instant payouts. Micro-subs. Cross-platform portability. This is what we're building: buff.ly/Yux9txH

Thanks to everyone who came out to Coimbra JS last night. A big thank you to João Ferreiro, Carlos Mota, and Bruno Correia for sharing their thoughts with everyone. See you at the next one 👋

We could rebuild Patreon on stablecoins. Here's what breaks: gas fees eat micro-transactions, wallet UX scares people, recurring payments are complicated, fiat off-ramps still suck. Solvable? Mostly. But let's be honest first. 👉 buff.ly/Yux9txH

It's happening today! Coimbra JS - Mobile, November, 6:45 PM at R. Casal de Vagares 15, Coimbra. João Ferreiro on his switch to Expo, then Carlos Mota and Bruno Correia on where mobile development is headed in 2025. Still time to register: luma.com/1v8v9or8 See you there 🚀

Some of our good friends are scaling Bleap Finance. Cross-border payments on crypto rails. Instant, cheap, no banking friction. Stablecoins are doing actual work. Worth a look 👇 buff.ly/ZgY1fNB

Lineup complete for Coimbra JS. 🎤 Fireside Chat: Mobile Development in 2025 - A Look Ahead Carlos Mota (Android GDE) & Bruno Correia (CTO at Pink Room) share their thoughts on where mobile development is heading next year. Nov 20, 6:45 PM. Register: luma.com/1v8v9or8 See you there! 🚀

Patreon takes 20% of creator income. Not because they're greedy, credit cards and bank wires just cost that much. $100 → platform fees, processing, FX conversion → creator gets $80 in 3-5 days Stablecoins: $100 → ~$99 in <60 seconds Full breakdown: buff.ly/Yux9txH

Filecoin Station's Web3 product struggled to reach its audience because users were unfamiliar with decentralized data storage. We redesigned the interface to make Web3 technology more accessible while maintaining security, transparency, and the product's identity. Learn more 👉 buff.ly/GopCxjt

1/ Gabriela Magalhães went from landscape architect to product designer. What she discovered: the thinking is the same. 🧠 The parallels between physical and digital design 🧵

"Because I want to help people." — Gabriela Magalhães went from wanting to be a doctor, to a landscape architect, to a product designer. The thinking stayed the same: understand users, design for edge cases, make the details matter. 👉 Check out the whole article in our Content Hub: buff.ly/H9QzxL3

1/ 🚀 2025 is the year crypto grew up. Infrastructure is ready. Institutions are on board. The regulatory environment shifted. Here's what we're seeing: 👇

💡 According to PM Álvaro Bezerra, your job isn't to design or develop, but to maximize the creativity of those who do. How: → Give clarity on goals/requirements → Protect their focus time (devs/designers need flow state) → Be the "doorman" filtering requests 🎧 buff.ly/VPh3t9d

The choice isn't between innovation and caution. It's between isolation and collaboration. By Luís Zamith: Nations and companies working together on safety and transparency will lead the next century, not those chasing dominance. Collaboration is core to everything at Subvisual. 👉 buff.ly/4Lsjlcw

Time to zoom in on mobile development at Coimbra JS. On November 20 at 6:45 PM, we’ll explore JavaScript's role in building mobile experiences. Speakers will be announced soon. 🎟️ Register: luma.com/1v8v9or8 See you there 🚀
