1/ What is LandX ($LNDX)? How does it work? How does it bring sustainable yields, and how does it overall increase financial inclusivity? Today’s #visualguide, in collaboration with @landxfinance, will answer all the above questions.
2/ You’re probably not that familiar with the problems of traditional farmland financing. The difficulty and opaqueness of the process hinders the farmer’s maximum productivity.
3/ @landxfinance involves three main actors: (1) investors, (2) validators and (3) farmers/landowners. Validators act as a bridge between (1) and (3), investors are those who seek exposure to yield-bearing commodities.
4/ The perpetual #commodity vault. As long as you keep your xTokens staked, you will receive yield on it. Perpetually.
5/ Holding 1 xToken would #yield you 1kg of the underlying commodity (1 cToken) within a year. When you redeem your cTokens, it automatically gets converted into $USDC. The yield is there, from the #crop, secured via a lien.
6/ The $LNDX token. It acts as a governance and revenue-sharing token.
7/ Upon agreement, farmers receive a tokenized version (#NFT) of their lien. This NFT can be redeemed into xTokens (equivalent to annual #yield amount), vice versa. Farmers receive a salable #token (capital) within a few steps.
8/ Validators are the key bridge between the #crypto-realm and the real-world. They assist in the whole bridging process: sourcing, vetting, originations, etc.
9/ As a yield-bearing asset that happens to be inflation-hedging, holding xTokens’ #yield would increase upside whilst protecting downside, an asymmetrical bet.
10/ Here’s how the whole picture ties in.
11/ They’re en route to releasing their own stablecoin, xUSD. It would be collateralized by xBasket (index of supported commodities) with a $USDC reserve. The yield-bearing nature of xBasket enables #revenue-sharing and strengthens the collateral ratio.
$ETH may not seem captivating right now, but have you heard of Atomic Composability (AC)?
This concept could revolutionize transaction processes and spark fresh innovation on $ETH.
Let's explore further 🧵
...
— 📌 WTH is Atomic Composability?
In L1 AC, transactions involving multiple smart contracts between rollups (L2s) and Ethereum (L1) can be bundled to either all succeed or fail.
This is essential for executing multiple actions (e.g., borrowing, swapping, lending) with the assurance that if one fails or conditions aren't met, the entire transaction is reversed, avoiding unwanted state changes.
...
— 📌 Why Is AC Important?
▶️ Security
Ensures that complex transactions don't leave the system in an inconsistent state due to partial failures.
▶️ Hyper-Efficient
Reduces the need for multiple individual transactions, saving on gas fees and time.
▶️ Innovation-Enabler
Enables the creation of more complex financial products or services in DeFi, like flash loans and seamless cross-chain transactions.
But AC still faced challenges in technical implementation—until TEEs and UniFi entered the scene.
In our previous post—linked below—we delved deeply into Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs).
Think of them as secure, tamper-resistant vaults immune to external interference.
Their primary mission revolves around task execution and privacy assurance. No matter who operates within them, TEEs promise accurate outcomes for every task undertaken.
@puffer_unifi from @puffer_finance bring AC to realities by implementing Multiprover AC:
▶️ Diverse TEEs ensure top-notch precision and privacy in execution
▶️ Prioritize L2 tasks with swift L1 settlements
▶️ Ensure atomic operations with trades executed post TEE approvals, bypassing extended withdrawal waits seen in ZK and Optimistic rollups
...
— 📌 Wrap-Up
Puffer UniFi successfully integrates Multiprover TEEs, offering effective solutions for AC implementation challenges.
With the Testnet launching soon, I am eagerly anticipating how UniFi-based rollups and the ecosystem will make Ethereum great again.
▶ @puffer_unifi goes beyond just Atomic Composability, envisioning an entire L2-based Rollups ecosystem utilizing Preconfs and employing UniFi AVS from @eigenlayer.
Imagine neighbors who live side by side but never chat—awkward, right?
Can these rollups finally break the silence and connect effortlessly?

▶ Scaling with Rollups
Layer 2 solutions are tackling Ethereum's blockspace constraints. According to @l2beat, in the past 2 years, over 100 rollups have emerged, with more than 80 in development, accumulating a total TVL of ~$36B.
However, this introduces certain challenges:
▶️ Fragmented liquidity
▶️ Suboptimal user experience due to transactions across different L2s
Friendtech’s contract renounced, $cbBTC drops, Vitalik's selling spree, Cryptopunk heist, 700+ events at @token2049, and a new anime twist from @Azuki.
RWA is set to become a generational wealth opportunity.
By 2030, around $10.9 trillion will be invested in RWA.
However, not all chains are ready for this change.
@Algorand is the exception.

➤ How Big RWA will Be?
@RolandBerger and @21co__ estimate that RWA will reach approximately $10.9 trillion by 2030.
This estimation is based on the assumption that RWA will capture ~10% of the net assets of regulated open-end funds.
To put it simply, RWA is expected to become a prominent sector in the future, offering numerous opportunities.
