Mixsome will be a user friendly, low-fee solution to go from fiat onramp to deploying complex DeFi strategies in a few clicks, making DeFi more accessible to the general public.
2/ Mixsome will allow the execution of investment strategies (“DeFi flows”) by wrapping up multiple transactions into a joint transaction executed by a single smart contract. And where it gets very interesting is that Mixsome will use xDai to execute part of these transactions
3/ By using xDai, they will drastically reduce gas fees for users. A strategy that would usually involve 3 or 4 gas hungry txs on ETH L1, will now involve two simpler bridging txs (to get in and out of the xDAI sidechain) and all the remaining complex txs will happen on xDAI.
4/ An example of DeFi Flow would be: swap ETH for DAI -> deposit DAI into Curve to get yCRV -> deposit yCRV into yearn to get yUSD. Doing all this in a single, low-fee wrapped tx will not only save a lot of gas fees, but will also make the whole process a lot more user friendly.
5/ Imagine showing a no-coiner friend that they can go from fiat to USD stablecoins on curve/yearn earning 15%-20% APYs with a few clicks, and without ever needing to get exposure to more volatile crypto assets!?
Imo this is how we get the next wave of #DeFi adoption.
6/ In addition to the DeFi apps mentioned above, and other bluechips such as Aave, Compound, Uniswap, etc, Mixsome announced today they will also integrate with @BadgerDAO, opening up the whole world of DeFi lending/staking applications to Bitcoin holders.
7/ Mixsome’s WP mentions that over 200 DeFi tools will be available for creating strategies resulting in literally millions of possible combinations. Therefore users will have access both to standard strategies offered by Mixsome, and can also create their own custom ones.
8/ $SOME will be Mixsome’s governance and utility token (giving access to exclusive features to token holders) and will also be used for staking/liquidity mining. Max supply is 127.5M tokens, initial circ supply will be 8.6M, and initial circ mcap $990k excluding AMM liquidity.
9/ The $SOME token Allocation Mining Event (AME) will start on April 16th on @LaunchPoolXYZ. In this interesting new approach by LaunchPool, each participant’s allocation will depend not only on the amount of $LPOOL tokens they stake, but also on how long they stake.
10/ This AME (through which 6.5M tokens will be sold), will be followed by a smaller public sale for 1M tokens on a date still to be announced. A V1 Mixsome app will be released on testnet right after the IDO and token listing, including 3 pre-defined DeFi strategies.
11/ Last but not least, Mixsome is backed by some major funds including @cmsholdings, @capital_spark, @GenblockCapital, @Blocksync_VC and others. Very high caliber backers considering this is still a relatively under the radar project (for now!)
2/ For starters, anything from weapons, to armour or spells will be represented by NFTs that can be earned through in-game events, slaying monsters, etc. These NFTs can be bought & sold both through in-game auction houses or through the usual off game NFT market places.
3/ $MIST is the in-game currency which can be used to buy NFT items, buy farmland or businesses to earn yield from them (quite the literal definition of yield farming), and much more
$MIST can be earned by completing missions, slaying monsters, selling NFTs, etc
1/ $AC @NUTSFinance (acoconut.fi).
Here is a low-cap gem that is bringing cross chain liquidity and yield aggregation to $BTC, with a platform already live on Ethereum and BSC, and more blockchains to come.
This is a <$10M MCap, $BADGER ($326M) meets $MTA project...
2/ Just looking at the team and some of the project’s backers, we can see that @NUTSFinance has high ambitions. The team includes former managers/partners/employees of S&P Global, China Growth Capital (VC fund with over $1.2bn AUM), Google and Yahoo, to name a few.
3/ Angel investors include the co-founder of $DODO and the former head of Apac for @Ledger, and in February the project received a $500k strategic investment from @Block_Ark. Considering this was an under $5M MCap project at the time, this is a major vote of confidence.
1/ $ALCX @AlchemixFi (alchemix.fi)
This one most of you already know, but their product is so unique and there’s so much bullish stuff coming for Alchemix that it still deserves a thread. Because come on, loans that repay themselves! What’s not to love about this?
2/ To put it in more accurate terms, $ALCX actually gives you an advance on the future yields on your deposits. So imagine depositing funds in a @iearnfinance vault, but instead of seeing your yield returns grow over time, receiving an advance on these yields right away.
3/ Alchemix does this precisely by depositing funds on yearn vaults, so that these funds can generate yield, and by minting a synthetic stable coin alUSD that users receive in exchange of their deposits, and that represent the advance on future yield.
1/ $EGT @ElasticDAO (elasticdao.org). A super innovative approach to governance, an elastic token backed by $ETH reserves, some brilliant game theory, and an amazing team including former @SushiSwap devs..
This is the most excited I’ve been about a project in a while..
2/ @ElasticDAO is a platform to manage decentralised organisations and make governance fairer.
Projects will be able to launch their DAOs and governance tokens through the platform, and ElasticDAO itself is the first of them all, with $EGT as its governance token.
3/ IMO, ElasticDAO’s solution to governance achieves three main goals. It is whale proof, it is free-rider proof, and it is very much a “skin in the game” approach where token holders are directly incentivised to participate and contribute to the project’s success.
One of the many innovations in @DIGITALAX_'s NFT gaming ecosystem that we didn’t have room to cover in our joint thread with @CryptoSpider1, is the possibility for top gamers to get sponsorships from major brands and to use their branded digital garment NFTs in-game.
2/ Successful gamers within the @ESPA4play platform can be voted by $MONA token holders to be eligible to receive in-game fashion brand sponsorships through a quadratic funding vote (meaning 10 people voting with 1 $MONA have more voting power than 1 person voting with 10 $MONA)
3/ The fashion brand will then fund $MONA amounts to a Player Development funds pool, which will be used to sponsor the selected players both through $MONA pay-outs and by providing branded digital fashion skins for them to wear in-game.
