1/ #Kujira is the true successor to all that was good about the #Terra / #Luna / #UST ecosystem.

Forget Terra 2.0, look into Kujira. A thread. 🧡

@TeamKujira rebounded after the Terra collapse with its own chain, exchange, stablecoin & liquidation engine.

All in two months! πŸ‘‡
2/ The team started with a liquidation engine on top of Anchor, but after Terra collapsed, they shifted gears.

They deployed their own chain on Cosmos and started building. FAST.

Now, Kujira is about to make its latest move. πŸ‘‡

3/ I present you their Cosmos native stablecoin: #USK.

This is the missing piece to bring the #Kuji ecosystem together.

The best part? All fees on Kujira network will go to Kuji stakers (see #13).

What about risks/competitors? πŸ‘‡
4/ #USK is an over-collateralized stablecoin pegged to the USD and backed by ATOM and Kuji.

This is very much like #DAI and should work well. This is not UST where the same entity issued Luna + UST with no limit.

The only concern is growth and ATOM. Why? πŸ‘‡
5/ #DAI cannot scale that fast as it is dependent on people minting DAI against collateral.

USK will face similar constraints.

ATOM?

ATOM has no cap on supply & inflates by 10% / year. In this regard, #Kujira is a better collateral to issue #USK.

Why can't USK scale fast? πŸ‘‡
6/ #USK cannot scale beyond 60% of KUJI's market cap & users minting USK against ATOM will eventually be liquidated (due to dilution).

Good thing Kujira has a liquidation engine & can add more collateral types. πŸ˜…

More profits for Kuji stakers (see #13). πŸš€

Competitors? πŸ‘‡
7/ When it comes to the Cosmos / ATOM ecosystem, Kujira is offering a complete package (see #1).

They could even leverage USK as one of the dominant stablecoins on Cosmos.

That will help with scaling.

But, why choose USK or Kuji in the first place?
8/ The Kujira chain + Fin exchange has very competitive fees (0.15% / 0.075%). πŸš€

Plus it integrates perfectly with other Cosmos chains. However, there is a problem.

Growth outside Cosmos is unlikely & adding more collateral types increases risks for #USK holders.

More πŸ‘‡
9/ Kujira is not very decentralized & there are alternatives on #Ethereum

With 75 validators of which the first 4 hold 33% of the voting power, this is a bit concerning (pic)

Plus, if ETH fixes its high fees after going PoS, Kujira will face stiff competition.

For example πŸ‘‡
10/ @LiquityProtocol has #LUSD & #LQTY + you can participate in ETH liquidations via the stability pool.

It's like Kujira, just that it is native to ETH, the best #DeFI chain.

While LUSD lacks an exchange as Kujira has, they have #Curve, #Uniswap, etc.

My assessment? πŸ‘‡
11/ #Kujira & #USK will do great on Cosmos and likely will eat up that market share.

Going beyond that, however, will likely be difficult as they will face stiff competition.πŸ™„

But that is fine. Just don't expect to see them reach the top 10 on CoinMarketCap (see pic).

Why? πŸ‘‡
12/ #Terra / #Luna / #UST reached such levels due to flawed mechanics that were not sustainable.

Terra used ponzi-tokenomics.

#Kujira & #USK are none of that. They will grow organically. πŸ’ͺ

Sustainable returns = Kujira (#RealYield)

Final remarks πŸ‘‡

13/ I expect the APR for Kuji stakers to increase over time, as well as Kuji's price (see pic and #1 pic).

If the ecosystem grows, this is inevitable. Getting in early will give you a nice return.

Some important resources for further study next. πŸ‘‡
14/ See below & next tweet:

βœ… Main site with all links: kujira.app

βœ… Check their docs: docs.kujira.app/introduction/w…

βœ… Buy Kuji on FIN: fin.kujira.app/trade/kujira14…

βœ… Stake Kuji: blue.kujira.app

πŸ’ŽAll ecosystem fees on Kujira go to Kuji stakers!

Crypto changed for me when I realized there are 5 decisions that actually matter.

The rest are just noise. Bookmark this thread. 🧡 Image
1. Time in the market beats timing the market.

Simply buying and holding Bitcoin puts you in the top.

You'd outperform hedge funds, most traders, and gem hunters. The risk/reward is simply not there when benchmarked against BTC.

2. @Rabby_io > everything else

If you're still using Metamask you're missing out on so much I can't even describe it to you.

It's the best EVM wallet for DeFi. Don't fade it. Couple this with a hardware wallet and you avoid 99% of crypto traps.

I just finalized my best desk setup ever.

A thread with all the bits and pieces. 1/12 🧡 Image
Standing desk by Okamura.

- sloped edge for max hand comfort
- no wobble at any height, up to 125 cm
- soft texture

If you spend a lot of time in front of the screen, a standing desk is non-negotiable.

Bigger is better. You'll understand soon why. Image
Aeron chair by Herman Miller.

- comes in three sizes based on your needs
- mesh that prevents you from sweating
- smart weight distribution and spinal support
- one of the best in the world

If you have back pain, a standing desk and this chair will do wonders. No regrets. Image

Twelve ways people get scammed or hacked in crypto.

Number 9 is a must read!

Bookmark this thread. 1/16 🧡
1/ You get a cold DM on twitter, Discord, or X with an offer to work for a protocol.

To do this, you need to download their app to "test/review" it.

Your hot wallets get drained as soon as you install it.
2/ You're invited to a zoom call. Link is legit.

Minutes before the call, they change the meeting invite, and send you a new "zoom" link.

You click and install the "zoom app". You just got hacked/drained.

Alternatively, the call freezes and you need to install "an update".

MicroStrategy $MSTR will crash in a spectacular fashion if Saylor does not change course.

Here is why. A thread 1/21 🧡

The similarities with Terra Luna are deeply concerning. Bookmark this! Image
2/ Saylor is creating money from thin air to buy more Bitcoin.

He mints new $MSTR shares at will and sells them to buy more BTC. Smart, right? Except there is a catch.

Where did we see this before?

3/ How does Saylor create free money?

He simply issues new $MSTR shares at zero cost basis and sells them during ATM (at-the-market) offerings.

People buy those MSTR shares and Saylor buys Bitcoin with the profit.

Who's dumb money here? Image

Five myths about money nobody tells you about.

Few will recognize the second. Bookmark this!

A thread 1/9 🧡 Image
1️⃣ Silver is hard money.

Nope. It's a fool's gold.

This is why it has historically underperformed gold. Silver is like any stock or altcoin. Avoid it if you want to protect your wealth.

Those buying silver are like those buying LTC expecting it to beat BTC. Just don't. Image
2️⃣ Real estate is an investment.

Nope. It's actually a commodity.

It turned into an "investment" when central banks decided to park their printed fiat into RE = huge bubble.

This hid inflation and made you a mortgage slave paying interest over 30 years.

Intrigued? See next. Image

Is $TRUMP a money grab and should you buy it?

Let's find out. A thread 1/18 🧡 Image
1/ Trump just turned the crypto ecosystem on its head with this launch. He opened the pandora box.

This has huge implications for everyone in this space.

We start with the $TRUMP launch, then move to its tokenomics and fundamentals. My TLDR is at the end. Image
2/ Yesterday, the $TRUMP token was launched on Trump's X account. Most believed it was a scam or hack. Even Elon didn't know.

24h later we learned his family is behind the meme.

Binance also just listed the token = price spiked!

The rally since is nothing short of impressive. Image
