" summary

Builds and deploys a working Vincent app called Warren Buffett DCA bot that dollar‑cost‑averages into undervalued tokens using Lit Protocol’s threshold cryptography and DeFi Llama price data. Forks the Vincent starter repo, replaces BTC logic with a random pick from Pendle, Renzo, Beefy, configures RPC, app ID and a delegate private key, registers abilities (ERC20 approval and Uniswap swap), publishes the app version on‑chain, and does a one‑click Railway deploy (backend, frontend, MongoDB). Verifies swaps on BaseScan and shows withdrawal via WalletConnect.
