A long overdue apology. I’ve wanted to write this for a long time but never found the right moment. Many people have asked what happened to @MeowFi_ after the Monad Residency and where things went from there. The truth is, while we faced plenty of challenges preparing for launch, most of them had solutions. The one thing I could no longer ignore was my health. For the past two years, I’ve been dealing with health issues that were initially manageable. But instead of properly addressing them, I kept pushing harder and harder. I spent nearly two years working 16+ hours a day, convinced I could outwork every problem. I couldn’t. My health gradually deteriorated to a point where even simple things like walking became difficult. Alongside that came lot of personal issues and eventually everything started piling up at once. As much as I wanted to continue building Meow Finance, I simply couldn’t keep going. It wasn’t an easy decision and it’s something I’ve carried with me for a long time. Maybe one day, if the circumstances are right, I’ll return to it. For now, I want to start fresh. I want to explore again, contribute to other projects, help founders and builders and give back to the community that has given me so much over the years. I’ll still be around. I’ll still be building, learning, helping and supporting this space in whatever way I can. My goal remains the same: to add even a little value to people’s lives. So here’s to a fresh start. Back to zero. Back to learning. Back to building. Thank you to everyone who supported Meow Finance, believed in me, and stuck around through the silence. ❤️

It’s been a while since we shared an update, here’s where things stand with Meow Finance and mainnet 🐾 - We didn’t apply for Monad Momentum - We’re not launching on week 1 of Monad mainnet - We’re not ready for our mainnet just yet To clarify, we’re not leaving Monad. We’re still building actively on testnet. Since Meow Finance is being built entirely from scratch and is far more complex under the hood, it takes time, not just to write and test the code, but to make it as secure as possible. We don’t want to rush. Even though we could attract 9 figs in liquidity through partners on day 1, we won’t risk pushing things prematurely. We’re introducing a triple oracle system, block liquidation and an add-on infrastructure design all of which require deep testing and multiple rounds of audits before mainnet. Unified borrowing system, pawUSDC - our USDC LST, NFT Time-lock Vaults, Baskets and a lot more stuff that need a little more time…. We’ll keep improving on testnet and would soon launch it for beta testing, we truly value your feedback. All love from @MeowFi_ 🤍

Wanna hear something cool? 👀 At Monad Residency, we locked 2 huge deals: 1 - Direct Fiat → DeFi deposits in ONE click (USD/SGD → aprMON/USDC position or anything, straight via our zapper) 2 - Gamified reward section + analytics dashboard Both came from outside residency projects, we @MeowFi_ are making the most of the platform @monad has given us.💜

Hey guys, really sorry but I had to share this with the community, we @MeowFi_ got kicked out of the Monad residency today and sadly won’t be allowed back. 🥲 That was our Day 5 and our last day at the Monad residency.

What Our Team Got Done at @MeowFi_ 14🐈💜 A lot of learning this time - those are the wins! • Had lots of 1/1s with @pareen, @michael_lwy, @jinglingcookies, @FishMarketAcad, and more from Foundation plus over 20 people in NS. • Refined myself • Worked on Meow Finance's positioning. • Shipped lot of content from Residency. • Narrowed down our roadmap and pitch • Built UI components to reflect that • Working on GTM for multi-token pools • Worked on UX as well as UI, like always. • made some frens asks? • a lot more 1/1s
