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!

My top 10 lessons after creating the $RAT meme token that went from $50 to $15 million mcap in 21 days.

Big announcement at the end. A thread 1/16 🧡 Image
2/ $RAT started as an accident. It was not planned.

I created the token on @pumpdotfun, and it exploded in 24h.

This told me I had something good on my hands. So I doubled down (#1 lesson).

Then my YCC community doubled down. The result? Image
3/ @RATescapeplan graduated to Raydium trading in 24h. That required a mcap of at least 100k.

Only 1% of all tokens on @pumpdotfun graduate.

We were in a very exclusive minority. Then this happened. Image

How I created a Solana meme coin, got it to 500x, then it crashed 98%, creator wallet got drained by hackers, and my own team betrayed me.

All this in two weeks. A thread 1/12 🧡 Image
It’s called $RAT or @RATescapeplan

1 bil tokens max supply, all circulating. Almost 1k holders and its last bull market lasted a week and reached $6M market cap.

It’s listed on @coingecko too. Let’s start. Image
I created the token using a Phantom hot wallet on @pumpdotfun with $50.

This is important later when that wallet is drained by hackers.

Within 24h the token graduated to @RaydiumProtocol! Nice eh? Image

How to find the top in this cycle. A thread.

When you see these 10 signals flashing, it's time to bail. Signal 9 will tell you when to sell altcoins.

Bookmark this thread! Let's go. 1/12 🧡 Image
2/ Signal 1: Terminal Price

Bitcoin price hits the red line? Sell hard.

Current terminal price is 170k.

This accounts for the movement of Bitcoin on-chain. @_Checkmatey_ invented this indicator. Image
3/ Signal 2: Stock-to-Flow Model

Start selling whenever the price moves above the stock/flow line.

That's above 150k today. Will be 200k later.

Either way, early 2025 looks like a prime period to sell. Image

Bitcoin is in trouble.

If nothing changes soon, things won’t be pretty.

I’m not talking about the halving schedule or block rewards, it’s much more serious than that.

A thread 1/17 🧡 Image
2/ As Bitcoin goes mainstream, fees to transact on its network will replace block rewards.

This will be gradual and take place over decades. However, a new problem is starting to emerge.

It was harder to predict this, but now it’s here. Image
3/ The first incentive is to buy and hold Bitcoin. Nothing new so far.

However, we now have a bigger incentive. It has to do with you NOT using the real Bitcoin.

Intrigued?

Let’s look at the facts next and follow @DU09BTC before we continue.

If you hold Ethereum, you are in trouble.

Uniswap, an ETH dApp generating $500 mil / year in fees, just created its own L2. Now, those fees are reduced by 100x and go into Uniswap pocket.

Multiply this by 100x with other dApps and ETH's price will go to zero. A thread 1/12 🧡
2/ The reason Ethereum has value is because of its fees that generate demand for its native token.

At the time of this post, it costs over $10 for a simple token swap.

ETH is on borrowed time as users are rightfully ditching this expensive chain. Who's to blame? Image
3/ Vitalik and his team.

They decided to scale Ethereum via L2s, but in the process they are losing their users. A bit ironic considering L2s were meant to fix ETH's scaling problem.

As L2s proliferate and users move out, Ethereum faces an even bigger problem. Image

It took me 10 years in crypto to learn this - PART 3!

I'm offering you a shortcut so you don't have to wait that long.

The cycles repeat, but they are not the same.

Here's Part 3. A thread. (1/11) 🧡 Image
2/ Since I started in 2014, I made many mistakes, but nothing compares to this one.

Buying altcoins.

But what did I know back then? Nothing. If you're new to crypto, learn from this thread.

What's my lost profit over the years thanks to alts?
3/ Over $1 million had I put that money in BTC and held. There is a reason I say this.

Altcoins are a losers game over time.

Bitcoin is a winners game over time.

Which game do you want to play? My next point will help sway you in the right direction.
