Today on The DIVI Crypto Podcast we interview Kate Sills of Agoric. Agoric is an open-source development company unveiling an interoperable Proof-of-Stake chain and economy. Agoric’s JavaScript-native smart contract platform provides developers a safe, reusable library of DeFi components to rapidly build and deploy on-chain.

Agoric lets you “Build Fast, Earn Fast,” by providing a Proof-of-Stake chain utilizing secure JavaScript smart contracts to rapidly build and deploy DeFi. This allows for composable DeFi, where developers choose your DeFi legos, compose your dapp, and deploy on the Agoric chain.

In a few lines of code in JavaScript, one is able to reuse a smart contract component that your users know and trust. Each and every step of an application's journey has been considered in order to save you time and resources. From idea to deployment like never before:

Choose components from our library to fit the project's requirements.

Add your unique elements to the components to build your dapp.

Use the deployment mechanisms to deploy on chain and create new contract instances.

Agoric is built on a JavaScript library of reusable, composable components coded by experienced community members. Developers can connect to Ethereum, Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC), and Chainlink. You can attract Ethereum users by providing them a dead simple on-ramp through the Gravity Bridge. Ethereum's assets can collateralize your contracts in seconds.

The Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol ensures that Agoric can connect natively to any Cosmos chain and any chains which adopt it in the future. Agoric is integrated with Chainlink’s market-leading oracle network, letting your application launch in a data rich environment.

There are a few ways for you to start earning with Agoric. In the Token Strategy, Blockchain projects often establish a native governance token, which may include protocol fee capture. Agoric’s framework makes designing and launching your token simple. Import our tested examples and make them your own.

Under the upcoming Fiat On-Ramps, you can address users unfamiliar with blockchain. Agoric’s upcoming fiat on-ramp partnerships will make it easy to onboard users with a credit card or fiat-backed local currencies. Many projects want to monetize off of interest on balances in user accounts. Agoric provides block-level rate calculations, timing notifiers, and governance to manage it.

Get paid directly by your users. Agoric’s local currency, RUN, is backed by the chain itself and supported through economic activity. Let your users buy in RUN and get paid immediately. RUN is a stable local currency pegged to the USD to facilitate economic growth and on-chain transactions.
