A thread🧵 👇
I've got a feeling all degens heard of $RUNE, yet few understand its implications.
They're too busy with mooncats. But not for long. When Thorchain launches this week, all eyes will be upon it.
It'll be the dawn of a new era, cross-chain liquidty.
BTC is coming to DeFi
Terra is proof that community is everything.
Terra didn't set out to be an all-purpose L1, yet here we are. All because the community rallied around $LUNA and TFL.
United Luncatics are destined for greatness.
A thread about what's to come for Terra 🧵👇
The BORROWING apy on Anchor is 325%! Getting paid to lever up is only possible in crypto😅
Stable interest rate in UST deposits is 22% which was the goal from the start. $ANC seems to be working as intended.
Let me explain how to earn that 325% APY for borrowing UST..👇
$LUNA
I don't mind missing out on the $DOGE pump. All good.
I do hate myself for missing out on $SOL, that one was too obvious. Fundamentals are supporting it.
It's why i hold $RUNE and $LUNA.

There's so many projects i'm interested in.
But none gets me anywhere as excited as i am about $RUNE.

Anyone still not paying attention to

Many think $LUNA and its ecosystem are just a bunch of shitcoins, if they've even bothered looking at it at all
Who needs another ecosystem when you've got ETH's network effect. R.. R.. Right?😬
Boy are they gonna be surprised in a bit
Heads-up, LUNA and ETH are synergetic
EIP-1559 in July, BTC taproot in okt, ETH pos before eoy.
10s of projects launching this summer/autumn on $LUNA and at least 5 on $RUNE.
$Sol exploding, IBC getting enabled throughout Cosmos.
Still think it'll be a multi-year bear market?
I wouldn't want to short the above
Yields on
@thorchain
's liquidity pools are unmatched.
BTC - 56%
ETH - 108%
USDC - 156%
USDT - 440%
~half the yield comes from fees and half from incentives.
Let that sink in..
You don't sell your $RUNE
In a few months you take out a loan against your lp position ➡️Pay the loan back automatically over time ➡️take out another loan, etc.
Perpetual money printer, without having to sell a single RUNE.
Game set and match, Thorchain⚡️
Words can't express how excited I am about the synergies between the Terra ecosystem and Thorchain.
Once both chains enable IBC we're gonna experience pure magic.
$RUNE, $LUNA, $MIR, $ANC and friends
If you'd told me 12 months ago $RUNE would be ~$6, $LUNA ~$4 and btc ~30k I'd have kissed you.

Stay strong frens, we'll get there✊
On the bright side, all eyes are now on $RUNE's code. Massive security check in progress😅

$LUNA
Imagine you have the option to 'stake' $BTC in your trustwallet/blockfi/etc. app for 30% APY
No-brainer
Thorchain's liquidity synths make this a reality for each listed asset
Each liquidity synth minted requires an equal $RUNE deposit to the pool. Imagine the buying pressure🤯
One day the regulators will come for your USDT and USDC.
That's when the cryptosphere truly needs UST.
Before then we're just battle-testing. Once the dust settles we'll have learned many more valuable lessons.
We'll be stronger than ever. There's no stopping us

Thorchain isn't like any other project, just accept it.

For all the newbies: The worst thing you can do right now is to chase gains.
Just pick 5-10 solid projects, add them to liquidity pools to earn a yield, like $RUNE and $MIR. Afterwards just sit on your hands.
No need to overcomplicate things at this stage.

'This time it's different'
I've heard it many times since 2013. But...
During past cycles we didn't have DeFi.
We didn't have products like $RUNE, $LUNA, $ANC, etc. These kinds of products accrue value whatever the market's condition.
It's definitely different this time👀
Thorchain is unique.
It has no competition. All other cross-chain protocols just help it increase its volume, TVL and increase the price of $RUNE.
There's literally no competition. Any perceived competition will only add synergy.
Eating CEXes is the common goal of DEXes.
When I think of
@mars_protocol
I think of the plethora of yield opportunities it enables.

"It’s the nature of truth that once you see it, you can’t unsee it."
Same with $RUNE, once you understand it there's no unseeing it. You know it's on another level.
It's one of the reasons why Thorchains' community is full of buidlers. We're building something unique here.
Lasting wealth isn't made by following the herd
Information asymmetry is a true edge, always will be for sustainable wealth creation
Don't chase the latest shitcoin pump. Venture into the unknown. Go where the crowd isnt yet

Thorchain's LPs are absolutely printing. I haven't seen such insanely high APRs in >10M deep pools on any top 5 DEX before.
BTC: 364%
ETH: 221%
USDT: 730%
USDC 264%
This tells me much more capital is inbound to take advantage of these yields.
As more capital comes in,…
$UST is about to become one of the major stablecoins on $SOL.
Replacing DAI in this case.
Great for $LUNA, great for the Terra ecosystem and an acknowledgement of the trust $UST has built-up in the greater cryptosphere.
Timing of

Non-Thorchads are likely sidelined. Since they have no clue about the mechanisms at play.

@naval
I reside in Slovakia. The restrictions aren't that severe, not much different then the rest of Europe. We're not in lockdown for example.
The biggest impact was the state's quick response in implementing restrictions and the incredible responsible behaviour of the population 1/.
$ANC is causing demand for UST to skyrocket, in turn creating a liquidity crisis, higher staking rewards and increased demand for $LUNA.
As long as you're getting paid for borrowing UST, I doubt LUNA will stop increasing.
Let me explain...👇

From the weekly Thorchain dev report:
IBC chains considered for IBC-relays; $ATOM, Terra ( $LUNA + $MIR ) $KAVA, $SCRT, $INJ, $SIF, $AKT
With IBC relays for the above projects, they'd be able to get listed on Thorchain
Wouldn't be a bad basket of Cosmos projects to hodl either
If multi-chain shoots Thorchain into the top 20.
Then liquidity synths shoot it into the top 5.

you currently get paid 230% APR (900% APY), to borrow UST

Thx in advance sir🙏
IBC will open up amazing possibilities.
Connect Terra $LUNA with Thorchain $RUNE. Now $ANC could accept yield bearing thorsynths with IL protection, such as BTC and UST from Thorchain.
Stable yield upon stable yield.
Eg. For UST ~20%APY on thorsynth + 20% apy from Anchor😁

Stablecoins are great. But does it makes sense long-term to use fiat pegged stables?
Future stableassets will mirror the cryptomarkets in one way or another. $RAI, $FEI and $BANK are most known for this.
I believe we can consider $RUNE a similar stableasset. Let me explain...👇
$XHV's xASSETS will bring optional privacy to DeFi, through Thorchain.
