Hey, $STX Fam, since @Stacks reached a new ATH and Stacking's TVL went to >1.3B$, I think it would be nice to dig in deeper on the WHYs rather than speculate on things. Here's a super-duper mega-thread on what happened after November 1 and what will happen afterward.
@alexgoBtc raised 5.8M$, and they are currently on Phase Two of their Testnet. ALEX is expected to launch 2-4 weeks after the SIP-012 Upgrade, which is due to deploy on Bitcoin block 713,000; a rough activation estimate is December 6, 2021.
@ArkadikoFinance surpassed 60M$ in TVL and more than <8M$ USDA minted.

@mineCityCoins New York City Mayor-elect @ericadamsfornyc touts NYCCOin. The current New York City Wallet balance is valued at $32m.
Well, you probably didn't miss this one where, the City of Miami is not missing out on the fun when the City's Mayor, @FrancisSuarez , announced on @coindesk that Miami will Give 'Bitcoin Yield' from $MIA. The current Miami City Wallet balance is valued at $29m
@MegapontNFT, the most famous collection in Stacks, had amassed 3M$ in NFT sales, and its current floor price sits around 2,000 STX Its interactive minting will go live in December 20

@bitcoin_birds , the second most popular collection, crossed 1.5m$ in NFT sales.

@BitGo Supports Stacks which unlocks more exchanges for Stacks

Banana Bridge- an NFT bridge from Ethereum to Stacks. Megakongs will mint on Ethereum and be transferable back forth to Stacks.
StacksBridge - @satoshibles announced their three-phase rollout for the bridge so that Satoshi can home to Bitcoin.

@orbitbridge integration is currently happening. This will enable STX to bridge into 11 blockchains such as ETH, BSC, KLAY, etc.
Stacks is leading in Korea with native local wallets such as D'Cent to integrate STX applications (Arkadiko, ALEX, STXNFTs, and more) to enable a mobile environment.
@chainlink Oracles is currently on Testnet. Once up and running we can hammer down on STX getting listed on EVM exchanges such as Injective and Uniswap.
