🦉Gnosis Weekly Recap ~ 15 May 2025

Welcoming Gnosis HQ: Scaling the Open Internet for Business
This week, Gnosis took a monumental step toward bridging decentralized finance with real-world business needs. We’re thrilled to announce the acquisition of HQ.xyz, now rebranded as Gnosis HQ—a self-custodial financial platform designed to empower businesses with stablecoin payments, corporate cards, and seamless accounting integrations. By merging Gnosis Pay’s consumer-facing tools with Gnosis HQ’s enterprise solutions, we’re creating a unified financial stack for the open internet—one that prioritizes autonomy, compliance, and global usability. From payroll to vendor payments, Gnosis HQ removes the friction of crypto-native operations while staying true to our core values: self-sovereignty, fairness, and credible neutrality.
We’re proud to announce the acquisition of @HQ_xyz, now rebranded as Gnosis HQ.

📄 New Whitepaper: Inside the Economics of Circles V2
This week, Circles released the official whitepaper for its upcoming V2 launch—offering a deep dive into the mechanics, motivation, and economic logic behind the protocol.
More than a technical document, the whitepaper makes a compelling case for Circles as a viable, trust-based alternative to traditional money. It explores how CRC tokens are created, how value emerges through social trust, and why this “radical” design is not only sound—but necessary.
If you're curious how Circles turns economic theory into grassroots action, this is essential reading.
→ Read the whitepaper: aboutcircles.com
Circles V2 introduces a financial model where value emerges from human connection—not central issuance or artificial scarcity. Each user becomes a source of currency, with CRC tokens generated through participation and trust.
This is more than a launch. It’s a statement: the tools for economic cooperation should be in the hands of communities, not corporations.
Built on Gnosis Chain, Circles V2 empowers people to create local economies defined by relationships, reciprocity, and regeneration.
Launch is set for May 21. Get ready to join a new kind of financial network—one that grows with every connection.

🔮 Multiverse Finance and the Power of Conditional Markets
This week, Paradigm's Dave White published a thought-provoking thread on Multiverse Finance—a vision for building composable financial systems that respond to real-world events. By designing assets whose value depends on future outcomes (like election results or economic decisions), this approach opens up new ways to hedge risk, coordinate markets, and generate insight.
It’s an exciting articulation of ideas that deeply resonate with the Gnosis ecosystem.
Back in 2018, Gnosis created the Conditional Token Framework (CTF)—a flexible protocol built to enable exactly these kinds of outcome-based financial primitives. Today, CTF powers platforms like Polymarket, Presagio, and others experimenting with futarchy, conditional coordination, and combinatorial prediction markets.
We’re thrilled to see renewed energy and new perspectives on this space—and we’re grateful for Dave and Paradigm’s thoughtful contribution to the conversation.
If you’re curious about building with conditional logic, CTF is ready to use on Gnosis Chain.
FWIW - we introduced all these concepts and created a framework for it ~7 years ago: The Gnosis conditional token framework (CTF).

Polymarket actually uses these contracts - so it is relatively easy to take the outcome tokens of e.g. Polymarket and create more complex markets.…
