By bidding on #ORCA, you get assets at a deepened discount, but you're also protecting the $USK stable. Epic right?

Here is another video by @YieldLabs that walks you through the entire #ORCA bidding process ๐
Again just swap $DEMO in this example with $ATOM, and make sure you're on MainNet.
You're now part of the first ever public liquidations marketplace ๐

The launch of any collateralized stablecoin is something that takes a bit of time to kick into gear โ๏ธ
Please take the time to read this article that details exactly what to expect in these early days of $USK being out in the wild medium.com/team-kujira/whโฆ ๐

There are now also 3 $USK pairs live on FIN for liquidity bootstrapping ๐
Initially, during the bootstrapping phase, only limit orders can be placed. After about 30 mins, the bootstrapping phase will end, and market orders can be placed โก๏ธ

Remember that staking rewards will be airdropped for MainNet, so you can use trading strategies on FIN to maximise your $KUJI bag before staking ๐ฐ
A reminder that MainNet launches on the 1st July, where you will be able to buy real $KUJI.

We are targeting Monday 13th for public testnet. This will include the genesis snapshot from Terra, so you can check balances and test the migration process in a safe environment ๐ฆ

We'll also have some demo markets open on FIN, with some selected partners and some of our own bots driving trading volume and stress testing the network โ๏ธ
You will also be able to place buys and sells and get a feel for this beast โก๏ธ

For validators, we will make an announcement around becoming a genesis validator soon. Thanks for the amazing support so far. 200 validators on testnet as of this morning ๐คฏ
For users, you will do all your delegating etc on our app BLUE. More news to come ๐
Just 3 days ago, the amount of $bLUNA in this pool doubled overnight. It's impossible to calculate an APR, but this is a very good thing ๐

We don't print a single token to give away rewards. These are real earnings from actual revenue, and sustainable forever ๐
Imagine being in a pool where the rewards can double in 1 day, rather than relying on inflationary rewards that only dilute things long term ๐
2/4
We do realise that this is a big shift in thinking, and that it's "strange" not seeing your rewards ticking up in real time, but we know that this is a far better way of doing things. DEFI shouldn't be a set of elaborate smoke and mirrors.

๐ค You will now see markets labelled "Bot First Market" in the markets section of ORCA here orca.kujira.app ๐
These allow bidders to participate in liquidations for markets which still use the old 'fastest finger first' mechanism ๐ค
๐งต on how this works below
1/10
We have our own liquidation bots running that use the funds in the liquidation queue.
When our bot wins a liquidation, the bids are used just as they are currently. Evenly distributed from lowest to highest premium as per current Anchor markets.
2/10
However, there are no guarantees. Success depends on a variety of factors - eg speed of execution, geographical location, and proximity to the validator for the next block ๐
We'll show clearly on the UI which were won by bots and which were won by us ๐ค
๐ข Can't be more thrilled to announce our multi-purpose, plug & play & configurable liquidation queue for all CosmWasm chains has passed audit by @TerraSCV.
In short, any lending market on any CosmWasm chain can almost instantly use our liquidation queue + ORCA to handle their liquidations in a democratised way, allowing their communities to participate in bidding for liquidated collateral on their markets ๐ฅ

This means that you can bid with a different token than the one the market is repaid in. Put another way, this is native aUST bidding, where you earn interest right up until your bid is used ๐ธ
