THE INTERPRETATION OF 364% UPSIDE⁉️

$LUNA surged by 364% since the JUNE Dip while $BTC only recovered 44%⁉️ Does it simply follow the move of #BTC or $LUNA experience market correction👀

Check out the thread below🔥

@terra_money $LUNA #TERRA $UST $ANC $MIR @stablekwon #crypto ImageImageImage
@terra_money @stablekwon 1/ In term of macro view, $LUNA surged by 364% after the June dip which just broke ATH in last Monday, while from the general perspective, Terra ecosystem is now $11.7M.
@terra_money @stablekwon 1.1/ Operated in the last six months, its TVL accounted for 3.6% and just surpassed the phenomena layer 2 Polygon to take the third place whereas other competitors launching in the same period found it difficult to attract capital flowed in their ecosystem.
@terra_money @stablekwon 2/ Terra ecosystem encapsulates three primary foundations to operate the whole ecosystem, and capture value for $LUNA as well, in other words, the business model refers to the closed cycle. Image
@terra_money @stablekwon 3.1/ Terra is roughly different to other blockchains, the on-chain activity of Terra basically depends on three main foundations: stablecoin (UST), synthetic (Mirror Protocol) & Lending/Borrowing (Anchor). Particularly, algorithmic stablecoin UST is directly associated with... Image
@terra_money @stablekwon 3.2/ Luna through the arbitrary motive, contraction & seigniorage (monetary policy). Therefore, accompanied by the illustration in the diagram and the historical growth of user adoption, the UST supply has to grow to meet the needs of users. Under the forecasted growth...
@terra_money @stablekwon 3.3/ ... of stablecoin industry, UST supply will seemingly grow at 70% CAGR (RBF Capital 2021) associated with the decrease in LUNA supply, thus, scarcity takes place which experiences the surge in LUNA price. In other words, stable coin demand-supply increases, result, LUNA gain Image
@terra_money @stablekwon 4/ If users want to pay merchants by UST, they have to use the customized off-chain payment like Chai, a native built application where the total CHAI users are now more than 2.4M whereas the Korean daily payment reached more than KRW 1.7B (~$74K) (Chai 2021)
@terra_money @stablekwon 5.1/ Furthermore, with the goal of building an on-chain ecosystem, the Terra ecosystem gradually evolved with more than 50 Dapps now operating. The bridge to other ecosystems as wormhole v2 will seamlessly bring tremendous capital flow to the Terra ecosystem and UST as well. Image
@terra_money @stablekwon 5.2/ Besides the native main players in synthetics & L&B sectors, the ecosystem has shifted their focus in the missing pieces as DEX named out a few potential upcoming projects as Loop Finance, Astroport (DEX).
@terra_money @stablekwon 5.3/ Terra ecosystem will be even more explosive when dynamic DEX is finished which opens the gateway for the upper layers such as asset management & yield aggregator, tracker tools or even, native insurance protocol.
@terra_money @stablekwon 6.1/ Mentioning about the ecosystem, following the July bull run, Terra’s TVL has surged dramatically by 55% compared to April ATH accompanied by the 364% $LUNA rise. Taking a closer look, the market share LIDO sharply narrowed when Terraform Lab launched Mirror & Anchor. Image
@terra_money @stablekwon 6.2/ While in the recent period, under the capital injection package from Terraformlab, Anchor expand its share more than ever which becomes the top protocol by highest TVL due to the recent launch of bETH on Anchor which allows ETH stakers in Lido ...
@terra_money @stablekwon 6.3/ ...can now convert their stETH to receive bETH, and collateralize bETH in Anchor. Just a quick note, the market size of stETH in Lido Finance is 765k worth $2.5B.
@terra_money @stablekwon 7.1/ Terraform Lab did build Mirror Protocol as synthetic to mimic the price index of real-world assets which acted as the vital element to bridge the real world’s assets to the blockchain.
@terra_money @stablekwon 7.2/ To meet the goal of raising the demand for UST, issuers are forced to lock up >150% current asset value in Terra stablecoins or collateral Luna asset as collateral, as usual, if the value rises above the collateralization threshold, the position will be liquidated.
@terra_money @stablekwon 8.1/ Beyond the general volatile money market, Anchor was introduced to be a stable saving protocol on the Terra ecosystem that offers yield powered by yield-generating assets. Acting as the leader in the ecosystem that accounted for a large portion of UST supply & maintaining... Image
@terra_money @stablekwon 8.2/.. APY, Terraform Labs continuously supports the protocol by recent UST 70M capitalizing in the stability reserve fund (Anchor twitter 2021). In July, Anchor announced a partnership with InsurAce Protocol to provide crypto insurance among users in order for risk hedging
@terra_money @stablekwon 9/ What’s next for Terra? The complete $150M fundraising from prestigious investors to fuel the DEFI space ecosystem boost Terra even further under the name of “Ecosystem Fund” which help to accelerate the growth through various hackathons...
@terra_money @stablekwon 9.2/ ...The arrays of new Dapps are ready to launch, Orion Money, the big name in DeFi Connected Hackathon officially launched Private Farm Orion to IFO its token & Starterra also plan to launch their token $STT, while ecosystem fund is waiting for bootstrapping potential player
@terra_money @stablekwon 10/ Lastword: There are numerous exciting things to cover about Terra, but we believe that we cover three major foundations to explain the extraordinary rise of $LUNA. The thread is limited, but the potential of terra is limitless. What do you think about massive gain of $LUNA?
@terra_money @stablekwon Disclaimer: The analysis toward the ecosystem is our POV and must not be considered as advice, please invest at your own risk.

WEB 3.0: THE FUTURE OF INTERNET

Web 3.0 is a topic that a lot of people talk about recently. In this article, let's see what web 3.0 is, the evolution from Web 1.0 -> Web 3.0, sectors of web 3.0
and the development potential of web 3.0 in the near future.

#web3 Image
Web 1.0: It started as a military communications project by the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA) in the USA in 1969. At that time the internet was just a webpage with text and links attached, no photos, no interactions, read-only. Overall, it's like an e-books Image
As Web 1.0 didn't have many functions, users just accessed there and read, but did nothing else. A few years later there was chat functionality through the Bulletin Board System, which improved interactivity on Web 1.0

Let’s take a look at the big picture🔥
#crypto
Valuing layer-1 coins like other tokens in the market or even CF concept actually not that wise choice. Considering layer-1 as a country, its coin should be valued as a national currency. To judge whether its implied power is strong or not, the coin price is merely a minor factor
The names mentioned here are ETH, BSC, Matic (polygon), Solana, Near, Fantom, Luna, and Avax which respectively achieved an impressive ATH over the past year. The article divide into 2 parts, the first briefly cover L1's journey in 2021 while the latter part will dive into DeFi.

GAMEFI MARKET & TK VENTURES
In early July 2021, in the case of Axie Infinity, AXS pumped over ~100% and trading volume soared ~300% just in 7 days, this led to gamefi market coming into a bull run. Since then, many gamefi projects launched, and TK Ventures seized this opportunity Image
1) Below is the ATH ROI of Gamefi projects that TK Ventures invested in. In the Gamefi trend, most projects are profitable. But before making decisions, every project has to meet our investment thesis. It's Gamefi trend but not every gamefi project we would spend money on. Image
2) ISSUE OF CURRENT P2E MARKET

Besides the growth of the number of blockchain games on the market, there are also many problems that exist in the current market. Here, we would like to propose 2 main problems: Game problems & Launchpad problems ImageImage

#NEAR ECOSYSTEM - THE UPCOMING GIANT⁉️

Following the Layer 1 season like other #blockchain, $NEAR also gained extensive attention from various #DEFI users and investors. What element drives the growth of Near?

Let's follow the footprint of @NEARProtocol in the thread below👇 Image
@NEARProtocol 1/ During the bull run, $NEAR joined the party that witnessed the 6x upside while reaching the new ATH. In the meantime, the various on-chain signals recorded peak, and a few major native #dapps decided to launch their tokens like first AMM DEX $REF or NFT marketplace @ParasHQ
@NEARProtocol @ParasHQ 2/ Social media has complemented ETH 2.0 & its sharding technology vision for a long time, but it takes years to apply. However, #NEAR step-up and takes the sharded nature as its core to solve blockchain trilemma, might even further advance than ETH2.0 Image
