It's been an extremely busy couple of weeks on Curve. pBTC, BBTC and oBTC, three new tokenized Bitcoin are now trading and will start receiving CRV rewards tonight. UST was also the sixth 3Pool [Metapool ](https://resources.curve.finance/faq/base-and-metapools)to join the protocol. Another addition was the EURs pool which makes the Euro the second currency to make it to Curve finance. This pool will eventually allow bridging between USD and Euro pools. The biggest release of the week, however, was without a doubt the sETH pool which launched on Sunday. The sETH pool is the first Ethereum pool on Curve and will be eligible to receive CRV rewards along with the AAVE and Idle pools starting next week. [Gauge vote is currently under way](https://gov.curve.finance/t/cip-45-add-gauges-for-seth-pool-aave-pool-and-idle-pool/1247) so please make sure to vote so we can reach the 30% required quorum and kick off CRV liquidity mining on those new pools. > Finally we have a [$ETH](https://twitter.com/search?q=%24ETH&src=ctag&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw) / [$SETH](https://twitter.com/search?q=%24SETH&src=ctag&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw) pool! Ethereum is so good that you only may want to swap it to Ethereum.
