π§΅I see a lot of tweets about the upcoming COL-5 (#columbus5) upgrade in the @terra_money ecosystem. A quick thread about why it's a big deal and you should prepare for it, maybe even buying the dip right now π $LUNA $UST $MIR $ANC $MINE
1 - Two factors are very important for the @terra_money ecosystem. First the adoption of $UST, secondly the burn mechanism of $LUNA to mint $UST. Both factors will improve significantly after the #columbus5 upgrade!
2- The adoption and demand for $UST will grown because of the added functionalities after the upgrade. The upgrade to Stargate enables IBC which is designed to integrate with other heavyweight blockchains such as @solana $SOL, @Polkadot $DOT and @cosmos $ATOM
3 - This will mean that $UST can be more easily used within those ecosystems and thrive to become their most adopted stable coin. This is likely with the added focus on regulating centralized stable coins and the perfect peg performance of $UST in the last few stress test
4 - The $LUNA burn will accelerate. Currently a portion of the seigniorage went to overfunded community pools. This will change and this portion will be burned immediately thus increasing the burn of $LUNA and eventually the price of the demand of $UST doesn't decrease
5 - Also, the col-5 upgrade will enable Ozone and Wormhole. Ozone will likely perform as the go-to insurance within the @terra_money ecosystem. Ozone with #columbus5 will bring an insured way of generating high yields, which by itself is rare, towards other ecosystems.
6 - Wormhole will create a bridge between @terra_money and @solana and enable better collaboration between both ecosystems. You might have already noticed the mutual interest between both parties and the rapid growth of @solana. $UST on @solana could be huge for us #Lunatics
7 - I hope you guys found this helpful! In light of all these facts I'm buying the dip and sitting tight. It's going to be one hell of a ride after #columbus5 with all the new projects launching with the added functionality. Also a reminder, be safe on @anchor_protocol!
1/ A thread why I like @terra_money and why it fits the current market conditions. In 2017 most of the coins pumped on news and hype but there were not actual products. After 2017 products were created with false tokenomics which leave investors liable for legal repercussions.
2/ Meaning that those products don't survive when governments or instances force legal actions. In the current cycle it's much more about working products which can contribute in the "real world". The #chai app is a perfect example.
3/ The #CHAI app has real world utility by handling payments via the blockchain which brings real world benefits to the seller and buyer. Benefits outside of crypto is crucial. In 2017 metrics such as transactions per second were measured and "critical" for investment decisions.
