ProtonUK Newsletter #18

Hello Protonians,

Welcome to Newsletter #18.

Another week passed. You know how people say time flies but in crypto, you blink and it's next week already. There is so much happening on so many social media that it's hard to keep up. While Metal Pay and Proton Loan have been quiet this week, we bring a lot of good stuff for Proton ⚛

Enjoy the newsletter and thank you for reading!

We finally see TaxBit updating their infographic to include Proton. However, the integration with Proton/Webauth.com wallet is not ready yet. If you need to extract your transactions you can use https://protontax.com/ to extract raw data and then format it in the appropriate format in Excel:


There isn't much to share on Metal Pay, Proton Loan. Proton Loan TVL has increased significantly since last week up to $19M which is great news as the platform is steadily growing.
