@OlympusDAO was the first protocol to ultilize a protocol controlled treasury via bonding. This mechanism can be used in many different ways—@KlimaDAO will use this mechanism to amass carbon tons, forcing quicker adoption of low carbon technology.

🧵👇:
Climate change is one of the biggest issues of our generation. One way we incentivize eco-friendly decisions is through carbon credits. If your project reduces or destroys a tonne of carbon, you’re entitled to 1 carbon credit, which can be sold on the open market.
The problem with this is that the open market doesn’t value carbon at a fair price—it can wildly vary between 1-30$. Unpredictable demand, limited price data availability, scare financing are some of the factors that attribute to this.
@KlimaDAO's bonding mechanism will let companies tokenize and bond their carbon credits to get KLIMA, their native rebasing token similar to OHM. Every KLIMA is backed by one BCT (Base Carbon Tonne).
the BCT token is a carbon index made of different carbon offsets. This will help stabilize the price of carbon as it will be a better indicator of the overall carbon market.
As KlimaDAO accrues more BCT in its treasury, it reduces the total supply of the carbon in the market. Coupled with the increased demand for carbon credits over the years (15x+ by 2030 and up to 100 by 2050), this should cause a supply shock within the carbon market.
This will accomplish two things:
with the sudden demand of carbon credits, projects that helped mitigate carbon but wasn’t economically feasible suddenly become profitable, and prices out big companies from making bad eco decisions.
It aligns the greed of the market with the benefits for humanity, a win-win scenario for everyone.
While the protocol hasn't been launched yet, early discord members were offered a pre-sale for 10 USD/KLIMA, up to 1000 USD (and a badass NFT)

its also not too late to invest–the pre-sale will be entirely used to fund the LBP (Liquidity bootstrap auction) from @_alchemistcoin
This mechanism ensures the fairest launch, so that everyone gets a fair price once the sale is complete (you can learn more here: docs.alchemist.wtf/copper )
Very interested in where @ArchimedesCryp1 and the protocol goes from here, join the discord if you have any questions!

@OlympusDAO's quest to begin branching to other layers begins with OIP-25, deploying Olympus to Arbitrum
forum.olympusdao.finance/d/102-oip-25-d…
🧵👇
Arbitrum has just been released, a layer 2 solution which offers the same security as ETH L1 with vastly lower fees.

With NFT minting on the rise, this is sorely needed in order to reduce friction in our ecosystem.
In other to bootstrap liquidity, we'll be using the wETH obtained the wETH bonds, and mint OHM to create a 3.4 million OHM-wETH pool on arbitrum.

Since we'll be using all the wETH, we can now get more wETH from our existing wETH bonds (5% more wETH in our treasury? no-brainer)

In DeFi today, liquidity is one of the hardest things to bootstrap for a new protocol. To incentivize users to provide liquidity, protocols will reward you with their native token by staking the LP (Often known as pool2's).

🧵👇:
While liquidity mining was a novel idea that sparked DeFi, one question left unanswered is "what happens when rewards run out?". Some say that the fees generated will be enough for the users, but in my opinion, they'll quickly move onto their liquidity onto the next pool2.
These protocols are so dependent on these liquidity pool providers that they offer massive incentives in order to keep the LP providers satisfied.

for reference, @AlchemixFi , @feiprotocol , and @TokenReactor provides 100%, 85%, and 566% APR for LP.

Bond prices at @OlympusDAO are mainly determined by 2 factors: the Bond Control Variable (BCV), and the debt ratio of the protocol. This is cool and all, but what does it really mean?
🧵on the inner workings of bonds 👇:
First, a refresher on bonds:
Bonds are the main source of revenue for the protocol. When you bond, you’re buying OHM from the protocol instead of the open market, for a better price. Since the protocol values every OHM at 1 USD, it makes money off the arbitrage on the trade.
We’ll start with the debt ratio of the protocol: this is determined by the unrealized revenue from bonds divided by the total supply of OHM. Image
