Congrats to @puniaviision! Liquidity is a huge component to the attractiveness of any asset, so it's the right place to focus. And I like that they're using proven tradfi ways to improve it.

Very pumped to finally launch HeronFinance.com, on @base. First SEC registered robo advisor for private credit, and we believe the first built onchain. Now open for investment. Beyond access to private credit, you can experience the future of crypto UX with L2s and AA.
