1./ @WhiteWhaleTerra is going to use a new way of launching their token; #BOOTSWAP.

Let me explain to you why they use it, how it works and how you can be prepared for their token launch. 🧡
2./ We have seen quite a few token launches on the Terra network now and unfortunately, many of them were not perfect. Two major problems have been noticed by @WhiteWhaleTerra:
3./ The first one is too low liquidity which causes a huge price pump at the launch. Nice for the insiders but if you want to have a satisfied community this is not the way to go. The second problem is bots sniping all the liquidity which causes the same issue.
4./ So therefore a new method had to be found: #BOOTSWAP! But what is it? Actually, it looks very much like a @BalancerLabs LBP. LBPs are basically liquidity pools that start with a high price of the token to be sold which slowly floats down over a pre-set period of time.
5./ In this way, bots are unable to snipe the first tokens at a cheap price. So that’s one problem solved.

How can the retail buyers benefit?
This is also something @WhiteWhaleTerra thought about. As I just said, in a LBP the price starts high and slowly floats down.
6./ To be sure there are enough tokens available, @WhiteWhaleTerra will deposit 100M tokens in the #BOOTSWAP. 100M?! Yes, that’s right. By doing this, even if bots snipe the first tokens, there will be enough liquidity left for the price to go down for price discovery.
7./ In this way, @WhiteWhaleTerra ensures there are enough tokens left for retail buyers to buy.

So now we know how this method solves the problems mentioned in the beginning of this thread, let’s have a look at the difference with a regular LBP.
8./ Usually, LBPs are being used as a fundraising method. This is not the intention of the #BOOTSWAP. As you may now, @whitewhale is going to work with protocol owned liquidity. And that’s where the #BOOTSWAP revenue comes into play. How does this work?
9./ When the LBP reaches the predetermined ratio of 50/50 $UST / $WHALE, all the liquidity will be deposited into @terraswap and the LP tokens will be moved to the @Whitewhale #warchest and are owned by the protocol from that moment.
10./ Because it’s not a fundraising all deposited funds will go directly to the community owned #warchest. As we know, PoL is a getting more and more important since liquidity rewards can’t last forever. In my opinion, @whitewhale is making an excellent choice by doing this.
11./ And you know what’s best? NO #KYC! So, everyone from The United States and all other regions that are usually restricted, you can participate!
12./ In my opinion this is an excellent method to have a fair launch and at the same time boost the protocol owned liquidity. Their combination of token value capture, protocol owned liquidity and decentralised arbitrage will be huge! πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯
13./ F#&% The Bots! Be the whale.

@WhiteWhaleTerra $WHALE πŸ‹πŸ‹πŸ‹

1./ Yesterday @staderlabs announced $LUNAx. What is it, why is it import and why is it going to chance staking as we know it?

A thread 🧡

2./ $LUNAx is basically a liquid version of your staked $LUNA. Once you stake your $LUNA, $LUNAx can be minted. So your $LUNA is now staked and you have a new token in your wallet, $LUNAx. Sounds familiar? It's almost the same as the $UST - $aUST mechanism.
3./ Because your $LUNA is staked, you will still receive every #airdrop. $VKR, $MIR, $ANC, $MINE and so on. Not one of them you'll mis.

So, $LUNAx, why would I want it?

1./ Which one should I choose? Which metric is most important? What do I have to do with all those small rewards?

Familiar questions? You better go check @staderlabs! If you stake your $LUNA at @staderlabs you never have to worry about these questions anymore! Image
2./ At the moment their community farming event is live which means your rewards are being converted to $SD tokens at almost the same price that private investors have bought the token for. So; no regular staking rewards but cheap $SD tokens for the time being.
3./ In my opinion participating is a no brainer since I can't imagine that the $SD token will be trading for anything close to these prices.

Note: you're not receiving the regular rewards but you do receive your #airdrops!

1./ Liked the tweet of the @ApolloDAO #Warchest? Want to know more #Alpha?

Let's talk about $zAPOLLO πŸ”₯

As promised, a thread about $zAPOLLO. What is it? Why is important? 🧡
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.

1./ Today is the launch of the $APOLLO token from @ApolloDAO.

Why has this token value, why you should be excited and why I'm ready to buy. Not financial advise.

The main things to discuss are the #Warchest and the $zAPOLLO token.

A thread about the #Warchest🧡
2./ So, the #warchest

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 🧡
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 🍷 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 it’s down to <20%. If you can’t 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 didn’t make it, because we kept selling their #shitcoin until not a single mad man was willing to LP for them?
