As promised, a thread about $zAPOLLO. What is it? Why is important? π§΅
2./ Like with many protocols, staking a token gives you governance rights. @ApolloDAO will give the same rights to people who stake their $APOLLO LP tokens. So where comes $zAPOLLO into play?
3./ @ApolloDAO will utilise a similar tokenomics model as @CurveFinance where people can stake and lock their tokens in order to get rewards and governance rights.
4./ When you stake your $APOLLO or $APOLLO LP token, you'll receive $zAPOLLO in return. Dependant on the lock-up period you select, you can receive more $zAPOLLO tokens. Of course, the longer you choose to lock your tokens, the more $zAPOLLO you receive.
5./ Staking rewards and governance rights are distributed equally among all $zAPOLLO holders. So, the longer you choose to lock your tokens, the more rewards you'll receive and the more governance rights you have.
6./ Why is this important? Keeping in mind the #Warchest, your governance rights have significant impact on the protocol and which assets are being added to the #Warchest.
7./ Next to this, the #Warchest ensures staking rewards won't dry out so you're always being rewarded. But that's not all. What do you think of #MetaGovernance?
Say what?
8./ Like explained earlier today, on of the assets in the #Warchest is $LUNA. By holding this $LUNA, the #Warchest can vote on governance proposals regarding #Terra. But because the #Warchest can't decide what to vote for itself, the $zAPOLLO holders must choose what it will vote
9./ So by holding $zAPOLLO you're not only able to vote on @ApolloDAO governance proposals, but also on the #Terra proposals π€― #MetaGovernance
10./ Because of the lock mechanism the circulating $APOLLO tokens won't be that much. This combined with the amazing value capture because of the #Warchest I expect a lot of this token.
11./ So don't forget, TGE TODAY. I can't wait!! π₯π
Liquidity incentives can't last forever and @ApolloDAO is aware of that. Where many protocols face the problem of how to keep incentivising LP providers when all the tokens are distributed, the Apollo team has already solved this before TGE
3./ The #warchest is the solution for this, but what is it?
The community farming event was used to boost the value in the #Warchest. Users were able to deposit mAssets LP tokens, as well as other #Terra governance token LP pairs.
1./ One of the projects I'm really excited about although not many people are talking about it is @Minerva_NFT. As the name shows, it's a NFT project. Unlike many of the NFT "projects" that only distribute mostly worthless JPEGs, @Minerva_NFT has a real use case. A thread π§΅
2./ Although @Minerva_NFT is a NFT projects, they don't make use of the default NFT standard. They are going to use the ADOs made available by @AndromedaProt. Another time I'll explain what the difference is, for now, let's focus on @Minerva_NFT
3./ So if it has nothing to do with JPEGs, what is it? @Minerva_NFT is bringing real world assets to the blockchain. What kind of real world assets? Wine people, wine π· So why is this a thing?
1./ Yesterday @loop_finance made an announcement of the NFT LP Bond marketplace for @terra_money. But what exactly are we talking about? Let's dive into it!
2./ Before @OlympusDAO created the biggest innovation #DeFi has ever seen, liquidity providing was like chasing green candles. #Aping into pools with a promising >2000%+ APY, until a blink of an eye later itβs down to <20%. If you canβt beat @anchor_protocol, why bother?
3./ Liquidity Providing used to be time-consuming, research intensive & very risky. How often did you get rugged/rekt? And how many protocols didnβt make it, because we kept selling their #shitcoin until not a single mad man was willing to LP for them?
1./ You're bullish for @prism_protocol? You should be. If you're wondering what they will bring to #DeFi you should check my previous threads about them. For now, I assume we all know.
2./ The real alpha for @prism_protocol is that they're not only focussing on splitting just $LUNA but all PoS assets. Think about $ATOM, $SOL, $ETH and $DOT. This combined with the fact that $PRISM is the base token in the liquidity pools is mind blowing. Why? I'll explain.
3./ Once a PoS asset is deposited in @prism_protocol the token deposited is the collateral and is used to mint a yield bearing asset and a principal asset. The collateral token doesn't disappear but is staked by the protocol.
1./ I think @staderlabs is not getting the attention it deserves yet. Staking is one of the most important things in crypto but is not capital efficient in most cases. #Stader is going to change that.
2./ Built on #Terra, #Stader is going to disrupt the staking business. They have a lot of things they're planning to do and I'd love to tell you guys everything about it but today I'll be focussing on the thing I'm most excited about: Liquid tokens.
3./ Nowadays most of the times when you stake a token you're done. That's it, the token is staked. Not liquid anymore, but you're earning yield. It's not bad, but it could be better. What if you get a token in return?
1./ We can use the vaults of @ApolloDAO for a while now and in my opinion everything is working fine. Why should we excited for their token? What does it add to the protocol?
A small thread:
2./ In DeFi we're familiar with auto compounders. Their services are great, but why would you want to hold their tokens? Not that much utility most of the times. But not for @ApolloDAO. Their auto compounding is great, but what you really should be excited about is the Warchest.
3./ 99% of the protocol's revenue will be redirected to the Warchest with the other 1% redirected to @angelprotocol. With these funds initially $LUNA, $bETH and $aUST will be bought (future allocation to be decided by the DAO).
