AN UPDATE ON THE SOLIDLY WARS.

Featuring ve(3,3), $SOLID, @AndreCronjeTech, and more.

🧵👇
@AndreCronjeTech If you're not caught up already, this thread is a basic (but outdated) primer on Solidly, originally known as ve(3,3):

So how have the Solidly Wars played out?

The below table is what I used to inform my trading strategy.

It shows us the Market Cap/Solidly Token allocation.

Basically, how much you have to 'pay' for exposure to Solidly tokens: Image

Solidly Swap has officially deployed.

Andre Cronje's DEX governance experiment teased as ve(3,3) is underway, and in 1 week, tokens will begin to come onto the market.

So what's going on? Are Solidly tokens going to moon? And how should you play the launch?

🧵👇
First, a TL;DR on Soldily Swap:

It's new type of DEX, with tokenomics (veTokens) designed to maximize cooperation and fee revenue. It's been airdropped to the top 25 protocols by TVL on $FTM

For a more comprehensive look, check out the thread below:
Solidly launched last night at midnight, but with next to no fanfare. Dani Sestagalli drama really slowed down the hype.

And it takes a while for DEXes to get rolling.

For now, there's almost no liquidity in the system, so trading won't get going until LPs come onboard.

With a circulating market cap of just $16 million, Vesta ($VSTA) has managed to grab an insane amount of attention on Crypto Twitter.

The bull case? It's got the most stacked list of angel investors you've ever seen.

The bear case? The FDV is about $500 million.

My thoughts👇

My thoughts👇
Well, maybe not.

When a protocol has this much VC action, its often assumed that people got in early at ludicrously low valuations.

The token becomes available to the public, and even if it drops in price, VCs can still make a killing

Have in common?

A thread on the 2016 Bitfinex hack, its resolution, and the implications.

The strangest crypto story of the year (so far, at least):

🧵👇
This story starts with the infamous Bitfinex hack.

In August 2016, a (still unknown) hacker gained access to the exchange, allowing them to authorize around 2000 unapproved transactions.

They stole 119,754 $BTC, then worth about ~$72 million. It tanked the market by nearly 40%
What happened next? It's unclear, but those coins were likely sold in a P2P/OTC deal between the hacker and a third party.

It was just another one of several previous (smaller) hacks of Bitfinex, and in the eyes of the public, the exchange never really regained rust.
