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

70% of Conta's gross profit came in the last 30 days, with every single day closing green. our business model: every pix a user makes costs us a fixed fee, and every time a user sends or receives dollars we charge a variable fee. when total fees exceed total pix costs we are gross profitable, and that has held every day for the last 30 days. here are this week's highlights: - volume grew 30% compared to last week's, reaching $655.8k all-time - september closed at 2x august's volume ($374k vs $183k) - 70% of our all-time gross profit of $4,007.48 came in the last 30 days - all-time high of 218 WAU, with 1,983 wallets created - lowest weekly count of fraud attempts so far - started executing our GTM strategy - first $5k TVL on Reserva vaults the first thing to address this week: @contavcbr was selected as 1 of 10 teams, out of 750 applications, for @base batches. with base batches we move from a mvp stage into a pre-seed, using @buildonbase's amplification and mentoring to build a safer and easier to use application. we also started executing our GTM strategy. it took several weeks of reading data, internal discussion and advice from mentors and advisors to align it with the problem we are solving, our ICP and what the team is able to execute. the strategy works as concentric circles. the inner circle is a segment where we already have channels and contacts, people who understand the pain and trust the technology. each next layer moves toward less crypto-native users, and our most active users become the channels that distribute the app to the next layer. distribution and CAC decide whether this business works. we are moving as fast as is comfortable: testing channels, reading the data, and pushing or pivoting based on results, without adopting the playbook of a series A company. our targets for the next 60 days are $500k in monthly volume and 300 WAU, up from 218 today. // for brazilian creators and marketers: if you want to work with us, check our creator briefing at hackmd.io/@thedonkey/Sky7TOA… and reach out via DMs or t.me/contavc. this week we also launched Reserva, our savings vaults, which reached $5k TVL in its first week. this video explains the feature, with english subtitles: xitter.cf/Thedonkey/status/21060… the product itself is a saving account, a saving feature and a growth flywheel in a single part of the app. we trust this to be one of the core angles on user's relationship with Conta, allowing them to frictionlessly save money and help kill their debts. Reserva is the first product of a framework we have envision to deliver the best value possible to our ICP. also this week, lot of improvements on the app stability and a new function for users to add a multiple passkeys to access their accounts. the team started building and testing enterprise account for MEIs, a type of entity for micro companies in Brazil, where we want to deliver an easy to use powerful application for business owners to receive money from their clients, to accept credit cards (working with @SaturdayBank on this) using their phones and help them manage their finances separated from their personal ones. excited for the week ahead. as always we keep building.
