Osmosis- A uber inflationary token that has a chart that says "I dont care".......this could be top signal but lets break it down Image
2/ so what is osmosis, well osmosis is a dex that is built on the osmosis chain, the dex has all kinds of pools ranging from a 50/50 to an 80/20 split which allows more flexibility and creativity for degens to you know, "do DEFI" ImageImageImage
3/ What I really like about osmosis (these are not the only things)
1. The ux is amazing, from little touches of swap 50% or lp with one asset instead of having to take multiple steps to compound
2. the aprs are nuts and ham
3. dual incentive pools ImageImageImage
4/ so I consider osmosis the comfy dex, I could go on and on with the list of things I like about it but the coolest one is that each day around epoch time (the time when rewards are dropped to you) I can choose which token im bullish on and I can use my osmo reward to DCA
5/ so now you kinda understand osmosis,
(if not here is a video)



lets break down some of the token stuff and why its doin what it do
6/ what the snap did @osmosiszone and @sunnya97 not get the memo, the osmo token supply is inflating at over 73% Image
7/ How is the osmo token able to do this well if you look here the osmo token has the most liquidity on the dex in-fact the osmo token alone accounts for a little less than half of all the dex liquidity ImageImage
8/ since most of the liquidity is in the osmo token this creates buy pressure on the osmo token, and most people compound the rewards into the pools with the osmo token.
9/so farmers mostly keeping osmo token for lp pairs, and new money coming in has to buy some osmo to play the game (this creates buy +buy pressure on osmo token), There is not really much selling going on
10/ Now what about in a market down turn and the osmo token is way up wont peeps take profits.......well yes and no, when someone wants to take profits or get some stables you have to unbond their tokens which takes time so you cannot insta dump Image
11/ so if im needing cash fast what do I do, well I sell any of my other tokens that are liquid....aka usually tokens that are not on osmosis (so it seems osmosis is avoiding the red button 😉 )
12/ Now I know your saying well I just wont lock my tokens then......and I will say well to get the aprs you have to lock the tokens......some even give dual incintives.....This may look like 86% apr but its actually around 155% apr with the juno rewards (no that was not a typo) Image
13/ so what decides the apr why are some pools higher than others. Im glad you asked, it goes based on swap volume so just like VE tokenomics on curve osmosis kinda has it too. It encourages you to keep throwing money back into the system
14/ so if im I protocol and I want deep liquidity, in order to get the high aprs to attract liquidity I have to have higher swap volume, in order to get higher swap volume I need deep liquidity
traders attract liquidity
and liquidity attracts traders
15/ we now have several protocols that are buying the osmo token to lp with their token to increase the liquidity, which boots the pool apr (because osmo price go up) which then attracts more liquidity........aaaannnnddd you have a flywheel
16/here are the top pools buy liquidity(notice something )....most of the pools are with osmo token Image
17/ so to sum it up
-protocols buy osmo
-aprs pump (attracting more liquidity aka buy more osmo)
-we have osmo wars with all protocols
-tokens are locked to get high aprs so not easy sell
18/ This is why the osmo price is doin what it do......it has a massive flywheel that incentivizes users to keep playing the game.......@sunnya97 you really are a genius Kudos to you man, I love osmosis and Its apart of my daily routine
19/ now is this without risk.......no, nothing is without risk, the aprs are dependent on the osmo price because it determines the apr but osmosis is looking to have its pools incentives in the future from swap fees and the other protocols giving pool rewards like so Image
20/ now there are stable coin pools so you do not have to have exposure to the osmo asset and there are some non osmo pairs so you can avoid the pool 2 situation as well

(pool 2 means one of the coins you lp with is the farming coin)
if you guys enjoyed this thread drop a like and share it with a degen near you ......

happy farming......Oh epoch time passed a few hours ago, I need to go compound

With the latest Arbitrum Airdrop announcement and upcoming Grants program,

Billions of Dollars are starting to Flow into the Arbitrum ecosystem looking for a place to call home.
And Most of the projects on Arbitrum have already done multiples with Traders front running the liquidity inflow.

But there is one project in Particular that I have my eyes on that may change liquidity in DEFI as we know it

Enter @ChronosFi_
@ChronosFi_ is taking the VE (3,3) model to the next level by integrating Maturity Lps

This is why $ftm is just different

from ftm to any other change around 1 min (because it has the fastest finality of any chain)
Any other chain usually around 7-15 Min sometimes more depending on congestion
Yes there are different bridging solutions that speed up the process thru Lp's for the chains that dont have near instant finality but have to pay a fee for that..... think @StargateFinance and @AcrossProtocol

Just like @optimismFND distributed tokens to select protocols based on TVL and users I see the same happening with arbitrum. Here are some tokens that seem to be sleeping with MC to TVL ratio as well as some other ecosystem tokens 👇
*Note, the reason im talking about some of the ecosystem tokens is because 42+% of the ARB supply is designated to be distributed to protocols to be shared with users.

Some of the tokens are pumping into this narrative in anticipation of getting in early on the yields
1. $RDNT

Similar to Geist finance on Ftm, has a locking mechanism for the $rdnt token to entitle you to protocol revenues

DEFI Hacks and exploits have become part of the norm.

In 2022 alone almost 4 Billion dollars were lost to Hackers, and this is just the beginning.

If we want DEFI to reach mass adoption there needs to be proper incentive systems in place to prevent this. Image
To establish trust between hackers and protocols, we require web3 solutions that incentivize responsible bug reporting and improve protocol security.

Current web2 solutions lack these features, bug bounty on-chain can be a great start
Enter @HatsFinance.

Hats.finance is a proactive bounty protocol for white hat hackers and auditors, where projects, community members, and stakeholders incentivize protocol security.

If you missed $GMX dont miss $Kwenta

6 reasons why I think @Kwenta_io will Flip @GMX_IO in MC 👇
1. More Decentralized

Unlike $gmx, $kwenta does not have exposure to $usdc.

$susd from @synthetix_io is the engine that powers $kwenta.
GLP is the engine that runs GMX.
liquidity providers that dont want exposure to $usdc ;

1. May withdraw.

2. If Lp's withdraw this means lower liquidity

3. lower liquidity means lower trading caps

4. Lower caps on trading means lower trading volume

5. Rinse and repeat.
