Stader's $SD token TGE is right around the corner.

And this is the perfect time to answer a few questions.

Namely:

- How do $SD tokens generate value?
- How can you use your farmed $SD tokens?
- How are $SD tokens distributed? (Tokenomics)

Read on for the answers: 🔽

1. SD Token Value Generation

Stader's source of revenue will be the fees charged as a percentage of your rewards.

What'll be the percentage?

Between 3% - 10% of the rewards based on the type of solution (if elected by governance)

Now, here's a little secret for you:

A portion of these protocol fees will be paid to $SD token stakers.

That's right folks!

You'll soon get to stake your farmed $SD rewards and earn more rewards.

In fact-

Staking $SD tokens is the key to unlocking the 4 ways to utilize them.

Here's how:

2. SD Token Utility

It all starts with staking $SD tokens.

Here are the 4 ways to use them:

a. Governance:

You receive $xSD tokens by staking $SD tokens.

These $xSD tokens are auto-compounding.

But more importantly...

They empower you with governance rights.

Next:

b. Preferential Delegations & Slashing Insurance:

Validators can stake $xSD tokens and...

- Receive preferential delegations
- Provide Slashing insurance to their delegators

Plus:

In Stader's v2:

If you hold $xSD tokens, you can support your preferred validators by...

...staking on their behalf.

c. Liquidity Pools

By providing liquidity for $SD / $xSD with stables or native tokens, you earn...

- LP fees and potentially $SD tokens

On to the final utility:

d. Stader Infrastructure:

Third-party protocols can leverage Stader's smart contracts and infrastructure by staking $xSD tokens.

And finally:

3. SD Distribution

Check out this SD token distribution graph to learn about its tokenomics:

You know what?

None of this would have been possible without you.

And that's why:

The entire Stader fam wants to thank you for being with us in our journey so far.

Now, don't forget:

#StaderTGE is on 15th March 2022.

Looking forward to see you then. 🚀🌖

Still not sure if $LunaX is for you?

Here's a Beginner's Guide to $LunaX.

By the end of this guide…

You'll be able to squeeze out yield opportunities across Terraverse like a pro.

Let's get started...

🧶⏬

There are plenty of mouth-watering yield opportunities across Terraverse.

And it all starts with staking $LUNA.

However, there's an issue.

Say you have 10 $LUNA and you stake them to earn rewards and airdrops.

The moment you do that, all 10 $LUNA get locked.

What about the other yield opportunities?

You have two options:

Option 1: You acquire more $LUNA to grab those opportunities.

Problem: You need to spend additional fiat.

Option 2: Stake 50% of your $LUNA and use the remaining 50% to exploit another opportunity.

Problem:

@terra_money

The @terra_money's DeFi ecosystem is missing a crucial financial product:

'Options'

Here's why you should care:

- They have the potential to skyrocket your portfolio
- They protect your portfolio from price crashes

So, what are options and how do they work?

#ELI5 🧶 👇

Let's take a publicly-traded stock.

An options contract gives you the right to buy or sell this stock at a specific price.

But you are not obligated to do so.

That means:

You don't have to buy or sell the stock if it's not in your financial interest or advantage.

How?

Here's how it works in practice.

Let's take two people - Alex and Kate.

Alex believes that the share price of company X will increase to $40 per share.

Currently, it's trading at $30 per share.

So this is what Alex does:

4 ways to use Terra's protocols to your advantage!

(Plus a sizzling bonus at the end)

Read on to find out:

🧶👇

@anchor_protocol

1. @anchor_protocol

Anchor is Terra's OG DeFi protocol with the highest TVL across the network - $10.41B.

It allows you to borrow $UST against liquid assets like $bLUNA.

And then deposit the borrowed $UST to earn a massive 20% APY.

No wonder it has such huge TVL.

Next:

@EdgeProtocol

2. @EdgeProtocol

Edge allows you to borrow and lend several Terra assets.

You can deposit an asset as collateral and borrow against it.

For example:

Remember the yield you get on your $UST deposits on Anchor?

Well, you earn yield in $aUST tokens.

Now for the fun part:

@terra_money

😵😵 DID YOU KNOW 😵😵

Staking rewards can tell a lot about the @terra_money's present and future performance?

That's because they are related.

Here's how...🧶👇

Staking rewards come from 2 sources:

1. Gas fees from transactions on Terra
2. Swap fees from swapping stables to $LUNA and vice versa

At the end of every block:

Both these fees are distributed to validators and their delegators.

More details here:
docs.terra.money/docs/learn/pro…

So:

Higher transactions and swaps = Higher fees = Higher rewards

In other words:

High staking rewards indicate a thriving economy within Terra.

Where more users are making transactions using $UST and $LUNA.

And this can only be good for the future of Terra.

Because...

@sig_finance

Want to maximize returns by speculating/hedging on future price of assets while limiting downside?

@sig_finance could be the answer for @terra_money!

Get set to use your $LunaX to earn premiums while retaining staking yield/airdrops.

Here's everything you need to know...👇

@mirror_protocol

Terra lacks one crucial financial product - Options.

While @mirror_protocol enabled retail crypto users to dive into the world of stocks…

Options are the financial toys of more advanced users.

They have a deep knowledge of leverage and hedging strategies.

The problem?

@sig_finance

They are desperately looking for the thrill that options bring.

And to put their knowledge and expertise to good use.

@sig_finance answered their wishes.

Sigma is attempting to bring the exciting world of options to Terra.

The best part?
