1./ As you all know I love good tokenomics. Let's have a look at @Minerva_NFT. What is it? Why does their token hold value? Does it have potential?
Let's go! A thread π§΅
2./ @Minerva_NFT is a DAO which will bring appreciating wine investments to users directly on the Terra blockchain.
This means you can invest in wine by using the blockchain. Those investments are minted as ADOs, an improved version of NFTs made by @AndromedaProt
3./ Although @Minerva_NFT is initially a platform for investing in wine, they are already looking to expand to more real-world-assets. Looking at this tweet things like watches, whiskey, trading cards and fashion are also things they're looking at.
4./ So why is this a thing? Why would you want to do this?
Investing in the things mentioned is very illiquid in the traditional investment world. What if you could use your investment as collateral?
5./ Now you not only have an appreciating asset, but you can also take out a loan. A self repaying loan? Who knows. One thing is for sure, by making those investments available on the blockchain as ADOs a lot of new possibilities are unlocked.
6./ So now we know the basics of @Minerva_NFT, how about their token? The token of @Minerva_NFT is the $TORCH token.
The $TORCH token as taken its inspiration from protocols like @OlympusDAO and @MIM_Spell which sounds very promising.
7./ The tokenβs main goal is to effectively capture a portion of the value of all ADOs are being minted and
sold. Hence, the market capitalisation of $TORCH should rise in tandem with ADO sales.
This is being done in the following way:
8./ 10% of every newly minted ADO sale is sent to a separate vault, which then provides the backing for every new $TORCH issued into holders. This inherently creates a floor price for the token,
as redemptions can occur when $TORCH is trading below its backed value.
9./ That 10% is then deployed into various yield farming strategies present in and outside of the
Terra ecosystem, which increases the backing per $TORCH. Therefore, it is likely that $TORCH
would trade at a premium to the underlying backing
10./ By doing this, @Minerva_NFT now has its protocol owned liquidity and is not dependant on the issuance of tokens to incentivise liquidity providers.
11./ If you agree with me that making appreciating investments available on the blockchain has massive potential, you definitely want to have a bag of $TORCH tokens.
Note: Tokens are not live yet!
12./ I'm very excited for @Minerva_NFT. In my opinion, this is a new market to be deployed on the blockchain and has huge potential. Next to this, the tokenomics are great. I'll definitely buy a bag of $TORCH when this is possible.
13./ You want to learn more about @Minerva_NFT? I'll post more about them soon, but in the meantime I recommend everyone to follow their twitter account and to join their discord:
1./ At the moment we have $LUNA, $bLUNA, $LUNAx and $nLUNA. $yLUNA and $pLUNA are coming. What are all those different types of $LUNA?
Let's dive into the greatest asset ever existed, $LUNA!
A thread π§΅
2./ $LUNA is the token we all fell in love with. To mint $UST the equivalent dollar amount of $LUNA have to be burned. The more $UST is minted, the less $LUNA is circulating so the more value one $LUNA has.
3./ $LUNA is the basic version of the token, this is the token that's available on exchanges like @binance and @kucoincom. To get access to all those different types of $LUNA you need to send your $LUNA from the exchanges to a #Terrastation wallet.
1./ The reason I fell in love with $LUNA is because of its magnificent value capture. Although $LUNA will always be my number one, $RUNE is definitely a token with a great value capture too.
What is @THORChain, what is $RUNE and why does it have potential?
2./ @THORChain is a cross-chain liquidity protocol. The DEX built on #Thorchain is @THORSwap. #THORswap allows users to directly swap native assets on different blockchains with only one click. So no wrapped or pegged assets. Why is this important?
3./ Usually if you want to convert $BTC to $ETH you have to exchange your $BTC to $xBTC (the ERC-20 standard) and than to $ETH. Two transactions, so two times transaction fees.
1./ #Terra outperformed the whole market the past days, yet there is still a thing missing: #Games. But no worries, we don't have to wait long anymore.
2./ @TerraFloki is building a play-to-earn game, I'm bullish and I think it's time to tell something about it.
So, the FlokiVerse! What? FlokiVerse? Yes, the FlokiVerse. That's what the gaming environment of @TerraFloki is called.
3./ You can enter it by having a @TerraFloki NFT in your wallet. Every time you want to enter the Flokiverse you'll be asked to connect with your wallet and once you have a NFT in it, you can enter.
In the Flokiverse, your avatar looks exactly the same as your NFT!
Let me explain to you why they use it, how it works and how you can be prepared for their token launch. π§΅
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.
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.
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!
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!
