Note
@NestedFi is our official sponsor for the month of December... They are a new Social Trading protocol which lets users create portfolios and copy-trade other portfolios on ETH Mainnet, Arbitrum, Polygon, Avalanche, Optimism, and BSC…
Nested allows for non-KYC fiat-onboarding through their integration with Mt Pelerin, as well as easy automatic dca’ing.
They are having an airdrop for early users, so make sure to check them out and consider creating some portfolios + copying some other traders’ portfolios!
Here’s an example portfolio on Arbitrum from @korpi87:
