1. Sorbetto Fragola of @PopsicleFinance is out!

A lot of people are asking me about how it works, so decided to write a thread about it! I'll try to explain as easy as i can!

Let's start!

$ICE
2. As many of you know, @Uniswap launched its v3 solution around 3 months ago. The difference between v2 and v3 is basically "concentrated liquidity".

v2 was easy to understand, easy to use as it uses x*y=k formula. But there is a problem with that, it's inefficient.
3. In v2, the liquidity is same around all price ranges. But why should i provide liquidity for 2M$ for ETH when the price is 2000$?

And can we really fight the old school orderbook trading with this approach?
4. To address these issues, v3 was launched.

You can determine your price range, and the narrower your price range is, the more fees you accumulate.

This way, liquidity is concentrated to allow traders to experiment lower slippage and lower price impacts.
5. All sound good, but what is the problem or risk with v3?

If you are out of the range, you'll experiment impermanent loss on steroids.

As in the video below, your asset percentage differs based on the range you have.
6. For example, if you provide $ETH / $USDT in the range of 2000$/2100$, when ETH price goes up more than 2100$ , you are left with only USDT.

Or if ETH price goes belower than 2000$, you only left with ETH.

LPs always have lesser amount of better performing asset.
7. But the upside is too huge that you can take that into account, as the narrower the range, fees go up too much.
8. In short:
- You want to provide liquidity in a narrower range.
- You don't want price to be out of your range.

But it's very hard to monitor the ranges, as you have to check it everyday. And even if you do, you have to sleep at some point.
info.uniswap.org/#/pools/0x4e68…
9. If ETH dumps or pumps while you are sleeping, you are out of range again. Also don't forget that you have to pay gas fees to rearrange your position.

What if there was a protocol that monitors those ranges, choose and automatize it for me?

Meet Sorbetto Fragola!
10. You put you tokens in the protocol, and it does the work for you!

Don't forget that it's very different than the old 50:50 pools!

You have to provide tokens at the same rate the @PopsicleFinance 's pool has.

Don't be surprised if you put smt like 0.6 ETH and 10000$
11. Currently both USD/ETH pools have more than %200 APR!

And as i tweeted before, you can also check @Ceazor7 's video to learn how to do it!

Also don't forget that these are all experiments, and DYOR!

Thank you for reading, as always!

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.
