Aave is really secure and they recently launched their very own stablecoin (called GHO) which provides good yields opportunities.

It's a mobile wallet that's super safe - even recommended it to my dad since it's so easy to use!

Very useful tool!

Used to have a "meh" reputation but it has improved over the past few years. Perfect for degens to trade with leverage!

It's probably one of the best projects in web3 - they are working on so many different things it's insane!

It's really great - clean UI/UX and very secure. Fees are a bit expensive but worth the peace of mind it brings!

Cowswap is the bomb and I love their UI (& little games while you wait for the order to go through!)

Love Ekubo's DCA feature! Makes it super smooth to buy a token over time.

ENS is dope - it provides an easily memorable name to a wallet address (e.g. vitalik.eth). It's very much needed to avoid mistakes when transfering crypto to your friends.

Wouldn't call it a rug but it definitely didn't live up to the expectations.. the app is still quite buggy after more than 9 months of being live. And the bonding curve on keys was quite steep (so it pumped hard, but dumped just as hard).

Very cool quests, perfect to discover various ecosystems!

Kraken is a really strong CEX - it provides a great UX, has a clean UI and the fees are quite low compared to other alternatives. And best (and most important) of all, it's safe. You won't find the latest shitcoins listed on Kraken but at least your crypto-assets are safe :)

Probably the most widely used hardware wallet, and for a good reason - it's dope :)

Magic Eden went from being the underdog to one of the leading NFTs marketplaces alongside Blur. Also support bitcoin ordinals which is great!

Nansen is incredibly useful, I used it quite a bit during in 2021 - was quite expensive tho so I stopped after a while.

DVs are the future of ethereum staking and Obol is leading the way! If you don't have technical skills & 32 ETH to run a validator, you can still contribute by staking your ETH through providers who run a Distributed Validator for you :) (see https://obol.org/contributions#stake)

Great trade execution!

Opensea onboarded lots of newbies into NFTs and protected creator royalties. With NFT volume dying off, they have suffered but I still really like their marketplace.

My go-to bridge, it's very easy to use while keeping bridging fees low! And best of all, it connects many different chains (e.g. Arbitrum One <> Mode network). Team is also very quick to add new integrations.

Premint was super useful to manage allow list for NFTs mint (especially in 2021)

Robinhood is a great app & once the bitstamp acquisition is complete, it's going to be really dope for crypto!

Snapshot is where decisions get made - it's the most popular voting tools out there for DAOs! I love their UI/UX, it's super clean and works perfectly well!

Good ol' Trader Joe is still around and still kicking ass! While they initially deployed on Avalanche, they eventually got on Arbitrum and it's always a delight to use their DEX (+ they have other cool stuff in store for you). Would very much recommend!

Unframed is great - my favorite NFT marketplace on Starknet and built with love by Argent. The NFT scene on Starknet is not great yet but with unframed, it's bound to change!

Uniswap is the OG DEX and it stays undefeated to this day! Clean UI that makes swapping tokens a breeze

Really like Velodrome Finance, it provides trades with minimal slippage and deep liquidity. Much better than their competitors on OP Mainnet! Frontend is sometimes slightly buggy but you can use an aggregator like Odos if you don't like Velodrome's UI/UX!

Real cool mobile wallet (+ they have a desktop extension) that works across many EVM chains :)
