Post #vTHOR launch recap, a thread 🧵👇 1/x

Early $THOR Stakers were able to lock in $vTHOR at a 1:1 ratio with $THOR.

Staking Rewards for THOR Staking 2.0 (vTHOR) have kicked off with a staggering 328,600 $THOR distributed to vTHOR holders thus far in just the first 2 days. We've seen massive support from the @THORSwap community as $vTHOR TVL quickly overtook Legacy $THOR staking.

~80% of Legacy $THOR Stakers migrated to $vTHOR in the past 2 days 🤯

$vTHOR holders are now enjoying 200%+ APY from 75% of all THORSwap Exchange Fees + emmissions.

🧵👇 1/x To celebrate the launch: @THORSwap's Exchange Fees will be 100% waived for everyone who holds any amount of $vTHOR (for a limited time)!

In the future, discounts will be adjusted accordingly with tiers.

NOTE: You must connect your ETH wallet holding $vTHOR for a discount.

Still have questions about the upcoming launch of $THOR Staking 2.0 aka $vTHOR? We got you!

A quick thread 🧵👇 1/3

So what makes the new single-sided $THOR Staking Contract different? And what benefits does $vTHOR bring?

Check out the handy comparison chart below: "By Odin's Beard, that's amazing!", I hear you say. "So how to migrate if I'm already staking $THOR?"

Well #THORChads, here's another chart!

Remember:
1. Legacy Staking APR will end upon $vTHOR launch
2. When you withdraw, rewards will also be claimed (so 1 tx is all you need)

THORSwap vision and roadmap revealed 🧵👇

Cross-chain aggregator, V2 redesign, and vTHOR are coming soon

THORSwap’s vision is “Become the One-stop Defi Exchange in crypto” by leveraging the cross-chain DEX aggregation protocol.

$THOR
1/x - Problems

1. Defi liquidities are siloed by different blockchains and AMMs.

2. Aggregators like 1inch, 0x, and Paraswap are focused on EVM chains like Ethereum, BSC, Polygon and etc.

@THORChain Synthetic feature is coming in a few days and will open the gate to THORfi.

Users will be able to Mint synth assets, swap between synth assets, and Redeem to the Native assets.

But, Wtf is THORChain Synth? 👇🧵 1. THORChain synthetic assets are primitives for both higher-order financial features, as well as fully-secured, fully-backed synthetic assets that can be sent anywhere in the Cosmos IBC ecosystem and they will always retain the guarantee they can be redeemed for the underlying.

Introducing vTHOR (Staking 2.0)! 🧵👇

This is only the start of (🔱,🔱)

Single $THOR staking will eventually migrate to vTHOR in the future.

Prepare yourself Chad, we have so much more to give. 1. So far for (🔱,🔱) we have launched:

- Incentive pendulum to balance staking incentives and demand for OHM bonds
- ETH.RUNE OHM Bonds to set up TC Nodes to help network stability and acquire TC liquidity
- Reduced our over efficient liquidity to benefit nodes and network

$THOR incentive pendulum adjustments are made for 3 reward pools. 🧵👇

1. Boosted single staking rewards to 5x with 630% APY

app.thorswap.finance/stake 2. Responsibly reduce THOR-RUNE LP/farming emissions to a sustainable level - 30%

We are introducing our very own incentive pendulum to adjust incentive rewards to ensure THORSwap's longevity and sustainability. 🧵👇

thorswap.medium.com/thor-incentive… 1. boost (5x) to $THOR single-sided staking
We will be gradually increasing single-sided staking rewards by 5x! This is where the game theory comes in hence (🔱,🔱)!
Most circulating $THOR is locked in the staking contract already. The new vTHOR proposal will continue this trend.

Happy THORSday!

THORSwap bonds are now available with our new partner Olympus Pro.

Longevity is the key to the protocol and THORChads can contribute to the longevity of THORSwap and get a discount. 🧵👇 1. How to acquire bonds?

Please read this blog to understand how to purchase bonds:
thorswap.medium.com/how-to-acquire…

Bonds are a contract between you and THORSwap, where you provide an asset (THOR-ETH SLP, ETH.RUNE, RUNE-ETH SLP) in exchange for discounted $THOR

THORSwap has partnered with Olympus Dao as a part of the Olympus Pro Cohort #4.

Chads, show your support, and let’s see (🔱,🔱) everywhere! From Asgard to Midgard (🔱,🔱)!

Why Olympus Pro listing is a game-changer? 🧵👇 1. @OlympusDAO is on a mission to help DAOs take ownership of their own liquidity with Olympus Pro

Instead of incentivising farming and dumping, protocols use Olympus Pro’s bonding service emissions to purchase liquidity from users, and users acquire discounted $THOR.

THORSwap uncapped launch on THORChain is starting at 10am EST.

It happens at the same time when THORChain raises the liquidity caps to 15m RUNE which allows additional ~$150m liquidity.

🧵1/👇 $THOR Pool will be seeded with 10m $THOR (2% of total supply) and participants can deposit $RUNE to acquire $THOR.

After $THOR Pool goes live after ~3 days, Launch participants will become a liquidity provider with 50% of their LP in $THOR and 50% in $RUNE.

Let's talk about THORName Service (TNS)

TNS is a multi-chain naming system based on THORChain network.

Simply, TNS is similar to ENS but it's based on THORChain.

Then, why TNS? 👇

1/cont THORChain is a multi-chain liquidity protocol enabling the swaps between L1 blockchains like $BTC, $ETH, $BCH

Unlike Uniswap or Pancakeswap, all swaps may have different chain addresses.

e.g Swap BTC<>ETH transaction involves both btc and eth addresses.

Why THOR Synth is a game changer? 👀

THORChain synth design is very unique and solves many problems for multi-chain Defi.

1/ cont👇 Cross-chain L1 swap has never been possible in Defi until THORChain launched MCCN 2 months ago (April 13th).

Though It's a great innovation, Users need to pay high gas fees to swap L1 assets.

But, why does it matter?
