Pyth Network Monthly Update | July 2022

“The Summer looks out from her brazen tower / Through the flashing bars of July.” – Francis Thompson

Every summer is DeFi summer, be it in Paris or Belgrade or Singapore or anywhere else you’re building.

This month, Pyth deployed in a new Cosmos chain, welcomed new powerhouse publishers, supported new data users going to mainnet, co-discovered new exciting use cases for Pyth data, and reminded the world what it means to be Confident — confident that we’re still early, confident because the best is yet to come.
