They've taken time to create an OTC process to enable large volumes to be transferred without negatively impacting the market. This will be increasingly important as compounded rewards grow in the future

Nodes can be created with as little as 1000 $VPND, and you can increase it's size at any time by depositing more $VPND. Limit of 5 nodes per wallet. The differentiator is that there's a compound bonus & the smaller the node, the better the bonus!

This is by far the most well-managed & tracked treasuries that I've come across so far. Sustainability is priority #1 and it shows. The treasury is managed with care and the community has deployed it effectively to generate recurring revenue

Creating nodes is extremely easy, and the UI that @MejiasDev and team have designed is drop-dead gorgeous. Simple, clean, and fun to monitor!

Immediately greeted by MOZAngelesSD and struck by their passion and emotional investment in fellow community members. He shares compounding strategies with everyone freely - and simplifies it all. My strategy is thanks to him

The team hosts an AMA via discord or twitter spaces consistently - this is actually how I found the project (Spaces) and what I heard was enough to motivate me to add this project to my list of exploratory investments

Fully doxxed founders, a phenomenal & knowledgeable community manager (shoutout Renegade), and a community full of folks that beyond their financial investment appear to be genuinely emotionally invested in VaporFi & $VPND

Sustainability & Value
This is always my biggest concern. VaporFi appears to really understand that sustainability can ONLY be achieved through the creation of an entire ecosystem around the VaporFi brand. Crypto + physical investments, coupled with ecosystem developed!

78% of nodes are in a compounding state and people aren't claiming - that's the faith they have. However, this shows that the team will need to be very strategic with their rewards and future bonuses to maintain the health of the reward pool

The investments made to-date by the treasury, combined with the approach laid out shows me that this team is prepared to be dependent on no one except themselves. No one investment will have the weight to pull the project down.

I said at the beginning of this teaser and series of reviews that there was one project that I wanted to invest my time in - and this is it. Felt excited enough about where this project could go that I voluntarily doxxed myself to Tom just to ensure I could help if needed

Looking forward to what 2022 will bring to this project and community. This is a project I'm going to have a hard to claiming from, and even more importantly - I feel a stronger desire to help the project grow than I do to actually make money from my financial investment
