Arbitrum is going to give us the next 100Xs.

Since I bridged to Arbitrum, it became my favorite ecosystem. With the release of the Nitro upgrade and it's best in class builders, it feels unstoppable.

Here are 6 projects you need to know, a quick 🧵 thread to get started.
This below is not an endorsement for any specific project. My goal is to highlight the incredible work and success the teams on Arbitrum have achieved.

As always, do your own research.
Bridging to Arbitrum is seamless thanks to their official bridge: bridge.arbitrum.io.

Popular bridges such as synapseprotocol.com also support bridging from any ecosystem.
#1 GMX @GMX_IO

$GMX is a decentralized perpetual exchange. Traders can go long/short with up to 30x leverage.

Participants can provide liquidity to the platform via GLP and receive 28% APR paid in $ETH!

Generating ~$1M in fees that go directly to stakers!
#2 Dopex @dopex_io

#DPX is a decentralized options exchange (European style). They just released a new product and are currently beta testing Atlantic GMX Liquidation Protection.
#3 Rage Trade @rage_trade

Rage trade has launched delta neutral vaults, turning GMX's GLP product, into the best stablecoin farm.

Be on the lookout for when the vault capacity increases!
#4 Plutus DAO @PlutusDAO_io

$PLS calls itself the "Governance Blackhole" which is a governance aggregator with a goal of maximizing liquidity and rewards. Already collaborating with Dopex, Jones, GMX, and Sperax.
#5 Vesta Finance @vestafinance

$VSTA Is the first layer-2 lending protocol allowing users to obtain maximum liquidity against their collateral with 0% interest! Users lock up collateral and are issued Vesta's stablecoin $VST.
#6 Jones Dao @DAOJonesOptions

$JONES introducing single click vaults offering "institutional-grade" option strategies. Perfect for users who'd rather be touching grass than actively managing positions.

Recently just launched Metavaults for Dopex!

What is @eigenlayer?

Introduced the concept of restaking, by depositing Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs) including $stETH, $rETH, $swETH, & more!

By extending Ethereum's security to other chains and protocols, in exchange for fees and rewards.

Staked $ETH is repurposed to validate other protocols, creating an optimized system with opt-in slashing conditions.Image

LUNAtics community held me hostage until I bought $ZEPH. Was it a good decision? Let's find out.

An untraceable and over-collateralised stablecoin is everything LUNA/UST was supposed to be.

Here's why @zephyr_org could pull off what was thought impossible and be the next 100X. Image
What is Zephyr Protocol?

Clear vision of creating the untraceable over-collateralized stablecoin protocol.

Triple Asset Model consists of
- ZEPH: Native currency of the network
- zephUSD: USD pegged stablecoin
- zephRSV: Reserve token

We'll deep dive later in the thread
First, let's compare stablecoins

We can see that $ZEPH presents a minimum 400% collateralized ratio, no base coin, and is private.

This is fundamentally important to understand how $ZEPH is different than $UST but offers competitive value over centralized stablecoins. Image

Most people are better off buying Bitcoin or Ethereum, but that alone won't bring you life-changing wealth.

For those who have something to prove, grinding it out every day, that's why I created The Meta Game.

My most jam-packed Episode yet, #3! Image
Before we get started, let's begin with an inspirational quote from @blknoiz06

There are always opportunities in crypto; learn from each of your mistakes. I recommend keeping a trading journal you can reflect back on.

You got this. Image
Launching just two months ago, $UNIBOT, a Telegram sniper bot, reached $100M+ mcap and achieved over 100X.

This week, @TeamUnibot proved its worth by launching a full-fledged web UI, UNIBOT X, creating a seamless experience to onboard the next million users. Image
