Ethervista is being described as the Pump Fun of ETH

ETH DeFi users are frustrated about the lack of innovation on mainnet

@ethervista novel LP & fee mechanism aims to address this by exploiting an opportunistic gap in the market

🧵(1/8) Image
VISTA (@ethervista) released its white paper 2 days ago

It promotes a fair launch with a liquidity lock of 5 days following analysis that most rugs take place between 2-4 days

It has since pumped beyond a $15m MC

But what are the key drivers for its interest?

/2

Image
i) Fair Launch

100% of the supply was distributed to the LP and locked for 5 days

Each swap takes a fee in ETH which is distributed to the Liquidity Providers - $25K was made within the first 5 hours

Comparatively, Pump Fun earns $400k in fees per day

/3

Image
ii) Economic Model

VISTA is deflationary with a capped supply of 1 million

It's designed to reduce token supply over time through burns - $200k burned today

Revenue in ETH prevents a "death spiral" in token value

The largest holder currently has 5.8% of the supply

/4

Image
iii) Feature Roll Out

Future inclusion of ETH-BTC-USDC pools, lending, futures, and fee-less flash loans

The user interface is nostalgic and the graphic hints at futures, lending and flashloans

No guarantees, but a possibility if it does well

/5 Image
iv) Market Penetration

It targets a market gap in Ethereum's current DeFi landscape, especially with the lack of exciting new retail faced projects

This could expand to lending/flashloans for the more sophisticated retail trader

Ethereum has a decent developer and user base that is pining for some innovation

/6

Image
To participate you need to buy the tokens from the DEX on their website

1) Connect Ethereum Wallet (use a burner - it's new!)
2) Swap ETH for VISTA
3) LP the split (currently 0.006 ETH for 1 VISTA) - locked for 5 days

Chat feature has been integrated - beware of scam links!

/7 Image
Do I think this will do well?

It's early.

ETH DeFi users are frustrated so they're looking for something to use on mainnet

The initial LP unlocks on September 4th, so be careful as there could be a dump in price then

The UI is nostalgic, but I'll be monitoring the other feature roll out

That's where the real execution and value will be, beyond a DEX and whitepaper which address the current market frustrations

/8Image
If you found this useful it goes a long way dropping a like (and retweeting if you think it'll be useful for your audience too)

Disclaimer: I bought a smol bag of VISTA to support the innovation on ETH

Thanks for reading🙏

Update from the team on new token pairs being launched:

Some additional context on OG holder (Frenulum) and speculation around the originator of the protocol:

Great TLDR on the proprietary DEX fees, and analogy to an innovative Uniswap on Ethereum
