Firstly Nolus is a #Cosmos SDK built chain using the Tendermint BFT consensus (Byzantine-fault-tolerant)
Making it a Proof of stake Network
Interoperable using #IBC
(Inter Blockchain Communication)

Nolus is a Defi leasing Protocol that allows you to lend or borrow on the Platform.
Which means locking in collateral in a smart contract to receive a loan.
You’ll be able to borrow up to 150% on your original down payment.

While holding full ownership of your leveraged assets, lower margin calls and total costs
Average Liquidation in markets is around 37.5% from the borrower price
While with Nolus it will be 40%

Like most Chains In #Cosmos Nolus will have a native Token called $NLS
This token will be used to secure the chain and govern the chain
I’ll explain more with tokenomics thread

I wanted to quickly highlight the part around ownership of assets.
When you normally use exchanges for loans or futures market etc
You don’t retain ownership of them assets and pay high interest rates- up to 40% in some cases
I’ve done this for some fun but think it’s quite fair and feasible as well🫡
Expectations for drops are high everytime, so I’ll explain a little below how to manage expectation.
I’ve done this for tokens airdropped not value
$Atom 1/
With airdrops to understand realistically if your going to get a lot (of tokens) is by learning the airdrop model.
Normally a project will bring out what % of tokens are being airdropped, this could be either from full supply or Genesis supply.
So be sure to check
2/
By knowing the % and supply makes it easier to know how much is being given
Then you need to know how many chains are being dropped too
And what % them chains are being dropped.

Just to throw another obstacle at $Atom 2.0 🤣 I’m working on a issuance schedule that would see 75% of issuance go to stakers and 25% to build a treasury over 4 years which the treasury would have around 35mill atom. Unless there’s a specific reason around having a 48mill chest
I’ve worked out it would take over 25years to reach a total supply of 500mill. but this keeps stakers aligned with securing the hub while the transition happens and consumer chains get on boarded
Personally if atom is going to accrue value then this has to be taken into account
Because it’s a risk everything should be taken with caution, I fully understand hence why I feel there’s no problem in taking a slight longer approach with issuance and building a treasury.
The apr % you see is for the full value of your pool..
So to get to these numbers
If you have 100% superfluid staking on the osmo half of the pool but the %apr shows for the full value of the pool the apr would be around 38% half of the 76%staking apr.
2/6
So when calculating etc you can use the 38% for the full value you have in the pool.
So to get to 19% again its a matter of halving the 38% to 19% (because only half the $osmo is fluidstaking) then to calculate what you get you add 19% to the overall value of the pool
