1. Today's first thread is for governance. Let's buckle up!
$ftm #fantom #fgovernance
2. Firstly i want to talk about a quote of one of the greatest man in Turkish History. His name is M.K.Ataturk. Image
3. He spends his life mostly to build a nation that can stand forever. Even without him. Even without his guidance. And he said :
"One day my mortal body will turn to dust but the Turkish Republic will stand for ever.”
4. What does this have to do with cryptos?
#governance.
The idea is to build a system that can stand forever.
Not relying on one person, or one foundation, but relying on the whole community.
5. The whole #crypto world is trying to figure out what's the best way to do this. It's so important for decentralization.
#Uniswap did it with airdrop, and make all the people using uniswap equal. What did people do? Sell those $UNI tokens.
6. They sold their votes, just like people vote for someone who gives them money/job in the real world. They sold their voting power.
7. $YFI did it with a better idea. #YFI tokens are not just voting tokens, but something like stocks. They generate #yield for the token holders.
8. #fantom takes it to the next level. There is on-chain governance in the chain. You vote based on your #staked tokens. Your voting power is based on how much you trust and secure the #fantom network.
9. AND IT'S IN THE #FWALLET. WHAT THIS WALLET CAN NOT DO? I DON'T KNOW. IT'S EASIER TO VOTE THAN WRITING THIS THREAD. Image
10. Just go and vote about the things you agree. Sagy no to things you do not agree with. And not just yes or no, you decide on your level of agreement to proposals.
11. Or make your own proposals. First proposal was this: Image
12. Yes i totally agree on that. Cause why wouldn't we be able to submit proposals?
We are the ones governing this.
13. Of course for now, even if the proposals pass, #fantom team has to make them live. But just think about the concept, think about the future.
14. If there are 100 million people in the community, community can create its own leaders, its own creators, its own senates.
In short, its own #governance.
All in one wallet.
Permissionless.
Unmuteable.
No one can mute you.
15. Thanks for reading. Let's meet in another thread!

1. Hello all! @FantomFDN made a presentation on UN, for ITU (International Telecommunication Union), and this is just a guess but it was also probably about smart cities.

This is going to be a thread about how this can work in real life for traffic! Let's start!

$ftm Image
2. People living in big cities know that traffic is a huge problem. When there is an intersection, we put traffic signs/lights in order to avoid collusions.

In a 4-leg intersection, there are 32 conflict points. Image
3. The more conflict points there are, the more waiting time in signalized intersection.

But don't forget that traffic lights are just a communication language for the drivers, and the language has only 3 sentences.

1. I previously wrote about how to use #NFTs in real life, let's expand it a little bit! Let's use the same #RealEstate example, but it can apply to many many more ideas!

$ftm
2. So we have oracles like @chainlink or @BandProtocol , so we can get the price of the real estate from them.

Let's say our house is worth 1.000.000$ worth for now, and let's say we own %100 of the house. And our kid wants to go to college.
3. College payment is 50.000$/year. And we don't want to sell our house. Instead, we want to take a loan from the bank.

1. Hello all! This time the thread goes to @AlchemixFi ! A genius idea, which makes DeFi move one more step forward! Let's start, and as always I'm going to try to explain it as easy as I could!
$ftm
2. Let's start with the real centralized banks and what they do.
You deposit money, they give interest to you, and you'll be able to get more money after 1 year.

For example:
3. You have 1000 $.
Bank has %1 interest rate.
You deposit 1000$ today, and get 1010$ next year. You earned 10$ just for depositing, and bank probably earned more with giving loans/credit etc.

1. Hello everyone! It's a thread about what I think is happening, and how we should act. These are all my thoughts and they are honest ones. Don't take it as financial advise or anything, and feedbacks are always welcomed!
$ftm
2. If you look at the validators, there are 3 of them that delegated so much. This is too much trust on one node in my opinion.

People probably did it in the past because GoFantom team is working hard to move fantom forward.
3. But it's a centralization problem. If they fail to work unintentionally or intentionally, it affects the whole network.

We need to distribute the power for a better network in the long term.

1. As promised, this is a thread about @AaveAave and #flend! AAVE is a lending/borrowing protocol that evolved the #defi ecosystem to the next step! It's gonna be a long thread, let's start!
$ftm
2. In order to understand the decentralized way, we first need to understand the traditional way.
As always i'll try to make it as easy as it can be!

So we first need to understand how banks make money.
3. Let's say you have 1000$ in your pocket and you want to deposit your #money to a #bank, because they give some #interest to you. Let's say your bank gives %1 interest rate for 1 year lock.

1. Hello again! I've been thinking for a while to write this thread and this is time!
My thoughts about #crypto ecosystem, what it looks like to me and what can happen in the future! It's gonna be huge thread, so fasten your belts!
$ftm
2. I previously wrote a thread about #ren, and how it is similar to silk road 1500 years ago. And it feels like we are building cities. But not as traditional cities, we are building cities on internet.
3. In those cities we have our own #currencies, our own #governance, our own #banking systems, our own economical features, our own communities. And with the development of internet, we don't need land or place for social gatherings.
