@astroport_fi is a #DEX build on #Terra🌖 It got extremely popular in its early days and was the main DEX during the collapse of $LUNA and $UST 📉 This is also when it proved itself as a DEX that can easily handle billions of trading volume💪
After the collapse of $LUNA and $UST, the team developed a new vision and continued to build👌 Before we cover their plans, let's first take a look at their team👀
While we do not know the exact names behind the project, we do know that @delphi_labs is involved in the project👀 Delphi guys are some of the smartest individuals out there so the fact that they are behind the project makes us already extremely bullish🚀
Speaking about @delphi_labs, in a collaboration with Attic Labs, they have recently completed principal development on a passive-concentrated-liquidity (PCL) AMM protocol for Cosmos-compatible chains👀
Based on their research, this will enable #decentralized exchanges to take things to the next level👀 After months of development and research, they are about to test it on @astroport_fi 🔥
Since the next-generation #DEX also needs to look good, @astroport_fi recently switched to a new UX😍
Since the future of the blockchain is interchain, they plan to bring @astroport_fi to the galaxy near you. A few days ago they launched a public testnet on @Injective_ with more chains on its way 👀
So why is this even important?🤔As recently revealed, all roads will lead to $xASTRO 🚀 In other words, all generated fees will be swapped to $ASTRO (on Injective or any other chain) and bridged back to $ASTRO stakers on @terra_money 👇
If you aren't familiar with $xASTRO, let us explain what it is👇
In order to receive a % of @astroport_fi smart contract fees, you can stake $ASTRO for $xASTRO. At the moment, the fees aren't big but with more chains and its new infrastructure, things could get interesting😉
133,864,556 $ASTRO was airdropped to users of $ASTRO V1 but surprisingly, only 60% of the tokens have been claimed so far👀
43M $ASTRO in incentives has been emitted since the launch on Terra V2.
So circulating supply is roughly 121M $ASTRO
With a price of $0,1 this means it currently has a market cap of only $12M 👀💎 If we add 100M tokens that are meant for the builders, this would mean we get to a $22M market cap which is still small in case they manage to become a leading #DEX on #Cosmos🤔 $ASTRO
To put things into perspective, @osmosiszone currently has a market cap of $500 million and this makes us believe that $ASTRO is extremely undervalued💎 #hiddengem
Also keep in mind that at its peak, @Osmosis had a market cap of over $3 Billion👀
All in all, while the trade is far from being a no-brainer and there are some risks involved, we do believe $ASTRO is worth looking into👀 Not to mention the fact that it is not yet available on any centralized exchange😉 #Crypto
Lastly, if it manages to become one of the leading DEX's and the token gets listed on some centralized exchanges like #Binance, we could easily see a market cap of $250M or a 10x gain🚀 In a bull market, maybe even 25x-50x👀
Its also worth pointing out that before the $LUNA and $UST collapse, the $ASTRO price/market cap was roughly 40x higher👀🤔
Disclaimer: This is not financial advice and you should do your own research before investing.
We would also like to disclose that some members of our team hold $ASTRO tokens.

Yesterday, we got a lot of important economic data and ever since the release, many analysts are wondering what happened. The data we good was far from expectations and is signaling that the #economy is very strong🤔
According to the reported data, #unemployment dropped to 3,4%, the lowest since 1969. Meanwhile, big corporations continue to lay off thousands of employees😂
Recent layoffs:
Amazon: 18,000
Google: 12,000
Sales Force: 8,000
IBM: 3,900
Goldman Sachs: 3,200
SAP: 2,800
3M: 2,500
Pay Pal: 2,000
Wayfair 1,750
Kraken: 1,200
Coinbase: 950
Spotify: 600
Hubspot: 500
And those are just some that we can think of😉 #layoffs2023
Yesterday, we saw a rally in the #stockmarket and this was expected. What was surprising is the fact that the #crypto market did not follow the move until major tech companies reported disappointing earnings results and we saw a drop📉
Yesterday proved to us that the market is becoming totally irrational. Bed Bath & Beyond failed to make interest payments on its bonds just weeks after the company warned it was considering filing for bankruptcy, yet the stock is surging higher🤦♂️ #BBBY
Same story when it comes to #EUR, just not so extreme📉🤦♂️
Meanwhile, #Bitcoin is holding quite well. We will need to wait for the stock market open to see how things play out before celebrating tho👀 In our view, a short-term bounce is likely and then we will be most probably making new lows📉
Yesterday, we saw a big dump when it comes to the stock market📉 Most stocks were deeply in red and indexes are now trading at June lows👀 This retest of June lows was expected, now the question is if we bounce or continue to drop🤔 #DOW#SPX500#StockMarket
In our view, a short-term bounce may take place here but on a longer time-frames, more blood is in play until the FED starts to signal easing🤔
Bitcoin is holding extremely well. With #DOW at June lows, #SPX 1% away, and #DXY at new highs, it is amazing to see $BTC 6% away from its lows💪 It may be too early to call for decoupling but this may be the first sign🤔
Yesterday, #Bitcoin attempted to push higher and break out of the accumulation range. It failed but is now again attempting to push higher. As mentioned yesterday, we don’t believe we will see a big brakeout until we get some hint on the next interest rate hike..
When it comes to the stock market, a very low trading volume can be observed. This further confirms the thesis that most traders are waiting on the sidelines to see what Powell has to say this Friday👀
We are planning to do the same and not make any changes until we get some bigger directional move.
P.S. Today we may get some hints on whether he is Dovish (in favor of keeping rates low), or Hawkish (in favor of raising rates)🤔
We are seeing a bloodbath across all the markets. This truly reminds me of the Covid crash back in 2020 when the first wave hit and everyone started panic selling their assets.
#Bitcoin is now down almost 50% from the top, just like many US stocks👀
Netflix stock, for example, yesterday crashed by 20% 👀
Is the new Ozark season that bad?😂
In crypto the massacre continues, according to data from CoinGlass, 305,997 traders were liquidated for $1.16 billion over the past 24 hours. This shows how extreme are the market conditions. Historically speaking, there were not many days like this🩸
