$1.261 in profits were added to our treasury this week, the highest number yet. we also crossed for the first time 300 weekly active users (WAU) and doubled the TVL on our Reserva saving accounts in the first 7 days after launch. 50% of our users that made a transaction last week came back this week, and we also started measuring all cohorts to understand better the conversion and retention across the weeks. we also launched our first version of grow.conta.vc, where we'll have all the community initiatives to help grow @contavcbr , starting now with a public ledger on referrals. on the infra side, we've fully migrated our database to @PlanetScale , adjusted our BRS and BRLA routes, and @norafinancexyz doubled down on the liquidity for BRS USDc pool. another cool feature is that new users now have an onboard process, explaining Conta's features, benefits and some cool tricks you can do within the app. on compliance, we've tighten our controls for sibling and third man fraud, getting the lowest number of tentatives since we began tracking and the highest amount of loss to fraudster based on our agents control and intelligence. team has been working on core projects for Conta: small business (MEI) accounts new layer of redundancy on providers local settlement debit card in-app earn platform for grow UGC and real users content API for 2.5 websites and applications @_frontandy helped us produce a new cool video about Conta, that you can check on her profile. this week we'll be attending @islanddao and will take the opportunity to show the app around, see foreginers using it and collect some feedback. that said, we really see abstraction as one of the main strategies for customer apps to thrive in this cycle. the best positioned apps in the segment IMO, @usePicnicBR @itstuyo @joinpeanut are all extremely design-focused apps, with beautiful tech deployed to allow a better abstraction for users. at @contavcbr we often have to build this tech from scratch because today's stack don't have the level of abstraction and flow we need to onboard millions of non-crypto users. the level of user experience we're shipping right now allows us to acquire users daily without having to teach them anything about the crypto space, targeting a wider ICP and exposing them step by step to the technology that is taking place. we're not building something cool just because, we're targeting a real world problem and tackling it with the technology we have available, writing code from scratch when it's not enough to solve the problem effectively. @contavcbr is an unique expression of how we envision solving the customer debt problem. maybe writing more about this is a next update or separated article.

the biggest week ever for @contavcbr : all time high numbers for user acquisition, active users, volume and fees. a recap of some initiatives that drove those numbers up: @base ecossystem (@BaseBrasil_ @baselatam @baseposting ) has been giving a lot of exposure for our work, we appreciate the support 🙏 referrals on Reserva are starting to pickup, we're seeing community leaders and content creators sharing their links and posting Conta's 101 videos to onboard this week Conta was at The Garage (@superteambr and @colosseum hackathon) where we had the chance to share more about the project, the vision and next steps. thanks @kukasolana for inviting us and congrats to @norafinance e @usebido) we are now producing amazing video contents with @_frontandy on our main Instagram and X channel's, the focus os these videos is to help explain Conta to the ICP and help distribute numbers are looking great, we are now growing consistently and expect to see a higher acceleration factor with the next set of actions we started implementing last 7 days. this was the first week that the system failed tho. during this week Conta's system failed on the redundancy architecture we were running and that triggered us to expand and improve the design and deadman's design. immediately after solving the issue, caused by an issue with the main liquidity pool we were using being exhausted, we've pushed several updates on the infra, making the system more secure: BRS is now the main asset on liquidation and runs two pools for redundancy, one in @base and other in @solana our settlement process identifies the best route to execute the order and immediately decide where to go based on the higher probability for succeed. we've built a dashboard and triggers for all pools Conta use, so we are now able to see, alert and correct inconsistencies faster and move from a reactive to a proactive flow. we've asked @norafinancexyz to add more liquidity to their base pool, increasing the total to 4x the previously one. these updates on the redundancy system make the infra more solid to be able to catchup with our growth rate, we are now working on preparing Conta's infra to hold together with 2.000 WAU. this week we had the chance to go out and talk to lot of customers, hear their feedback, watch them interacting with it and ask questions about the why's on their use cases. last seven days gave us more confidence on keeping the focus on the problem, ignoring the noises and doubling down fast on what gives results. next milestones: $500k monthly volume, 3.000 users, $6.000 monthly gross profit, 99% uptime, $25k TVL on Reserva. we keep building

the first $200k in volume took three months. the second took 18 days. we finally started our growth initiatives, we're still running some experiments in different channels as: - content on @contavcbr - instagram account instagram.com/contavc - our TG community t.me/contavc - YT videos w some creators - some IRL events (cohosted w @norafinancexyz ) - a cool video with @_frontandy explaining self custody - @BitsandBorders featured us on today newsletter (thanks @AaronWStanley ) all of our experiments are being measured by our agent connected to our local data + @Amplitude_HQ + ledger, that gives us a clear vision on the impact and results for each one of the initiatives. first thing we have to deal with: we are able to bring people to the app, make them open an acc (79%), but we only have 34% actually funding the account after the first instructions. some changes on the onboarding shall happen to make the user feel safer on this process. numbers are picking tho, we are happy that we are able to bring more users, grow the WAU, DAU and volume with a high impact and not breaking. 94.6% of our transactions went through since the beginning, the ones that failed either were refunded, or identified as fraud are held by our compliance agents. within a total of ~6.500 transactions we already made, only 36 (around 0.5%) were flagged as fraud with a MED (recovery system for the PIX) activated. from those, 29 were false positives, 6 are still open for discussion and 1 was actually refunded to the victim. as you may have seen, this week we've tested our x402 payments, enabling agents to process pix payments directly to other ppl, creating a new way to interact with the app. we had dozens of requests for APIs to agents to interact with, but our choice, by architecture, was to design a first version of x402 that will give us more control, more security and way more versatility on what you will be able to do on top of it. it goes beta live for our users this week. we also pushed lot of backend improvements in the app, the payments are faster, we fixed some qr code issues we were facing on very specific payments, we fixed some vulnerabilities with KYC flow and pushed a lot of improvements to our agents helping run the company. also, the frontend got some cool new features, now we have a cool animation when you open the app, we added push notifications (if you read until here, feel free to claim this R$ 50 to your Conta account app.conta.vc/r/zHKBDsYQm2Jx8…) , and some quality of life improvements on receipts, transactions processing and more. this week we have some cool new things to ship, not only the agentic payment open to beta tester, but also we are finally bringing a way to users to save money similar to @acorns , and a 401k inspired vault accrues value to the network effect we're seeing on users bringing their families and relatives. we've built the tech for users to own their income, now they're giving them the possibility to start saving their first emergency fund. as I told here many times, @DaveRamsey is an inspiration, and we see its methodology as a guide to help millions of ppl to get rid of their debt and build wealth. next step is helping them make an extra income and kill debt. we keep building.
