Guys, today is the last day of 2025! Happy New Year in advance~ Last night on the way home, I偶遇 a超美 sunset. It was the first time this year I saw such a round sunset, I must share it with you all!

Today, let's continue talking about @Lombard_Finance. Previously, we discussed how it brought Bitcoin back to life. The next issue to solve is usability.

At this stage, their focus is on middleware, which essentially helps connect Bitcoin to various use cases, allowing people with different needs to use it easily.

For example, cross-chain functionality, which means enabling Bitcoin to freely switch between different blockchains. No matter which chain offers good financial or investment opportunities, you can directly participate with Bitcoin.

They also provide SDK tools for developers. If other apps or wallets want to add Bitcoin deposit and earning features, they no longer need complex integrations. Just use this tool, and the experience is similar to operating on a centralized exchange, but all on-chain, with better security.

Additionally, they have created a marketplace similar to an "app store." Ordinary users holding Bitcoin don’t need to search everywhere for channels; they can see various products from DeFi, centralized platforms, and even traditional finance—all in one place. Whether for wealth management or investment, everything can be done in one stop.

I think this step is particularly crucial. Only when users find it convenient to use will they be willing to actively take Bitcoin out of their wallets, truly creating a scale effect.

Moreover, Lombard understands boundaries well. They don’t seek to do everything; instead, they focus solely on Bitcoin-related infrastructure. Other aspects are handled by experts. This focused approach is actually more stable.

I plan to start researching @MemeMax_Fi tomorrow. Honestly, Season 1 was really intense—I gave up on it. I plan to work on some different projects in the new year. Hope to keep improving in the coming year!
