In anticipation of the conclusion of the @AIWayfinder governance vote, the core Parallel team is committing 600k of already vested $PRIME in contract for 3 years when the vote passes for Wayfinder. Additionally, any remaining core team liquid and vested tokens will be cached for $PROMPT. Looking further out, we are commited to enhancing the utility of the token with the creation of additional $PRIME sinks, expanding ownership via mass retail engagements such as our recent initiatives in Japan as well as the release of our second game @ParallelColony which is powered by $PRIME. //

So it is completely fine for The Hearthstone community members/ devs to call us scammers/pyramid schemers but the moment I say something back itโ€™s taking it too far haha. I donโ€™t care what you think about me. These tweets are for the silent listeners who are bored of the old systems and want something new. My intention was not to cause war, but itโ€™s pretty tough seeing all my friends getting accused of being scammers and Iโ€™m just not gonna sit back quietly and let it happen.

Clearly you haven't tried the new Nitro yet. If there is a bridge that is faster or cheaper between Ethereum and L2s, I am still to hear about it . (~40% cheaper than the cheapest option on Jumper earlier today)
Wormhole is launching today. It should be one of the biggest launches and biggest airdrops on the market. It will also create a bridge and cross-chain protocol narrative. I would look at the following: app.debridge.finance - I use this all the time. Airdrop points launching now. Best bridge out there. $CSWAP - new product. $150m FDV. Token been flying. Holding a bag here. $STG - Layer zero cross-chain dex. $THORSWAP - Build on $RUNE. Orbiter.finance - bridge also starting to farm airdrop points. $ROUTE - old faithful multichain.

Just used @UseTeller to borrow 100WETH using $PRIME at a 1 to 1 collateral ratio with an 8% APY to ape an additional 100WETH into @renzoai at ~5X leverage via @GearboxProtocol Will walk you through my strategy๐Ÿงต

โ€œLiquid Eigen Layer Betaโ€- this is a statement we have seen being used to describe Gearbox recently. That claim seems to be even more substantiated as LRT integrations like @renzoai and @ether_fi have boosted TVL to $97M and put the lending market on course to generate over $15M in fees for lenders. So, is Gearbox about restaking? Yes, No, and so much more. Let's look at the metrics and V3's growth strategy ๐Ÿงต The "Network Effects" capture strategy Gearbox is an onchain leverage layer. It enables you to borrow leverage and use it across other protocols and chains. That is currently mostly DeFi, but also some RWA and even staking facilities. With V3, our strategy was to develop Gearbox into a more modular protocol capable of offering leverage on protocols and assets that are the most relevant to users. This was a key growth mechanism to capture and grow our "Network effects". Integrating LRTs, thus, was a part of the V3 strategy and gained significant traction. Beyond LRTs, V3 enabled leveraged trading on DEXes like Uniswap and Curve with PURE Margin Trading. Also, introduced leveraged RWAs with sDAI, leveraged LSDs with rETH and stETH and more from the @CurveFinance Ecosystem to grow these network effects. Effect on Borrowers and TVL With V3's additions, we have seen the user base rise to 240 active borrowers with an average position size of $333K. Whales, few in numbers, but huge ๐Ÿ‹ The overall TVL has now risen from $27M on V2 to $97M on V3, a 259% rise. Out of this, the leveraged restaking TVL is at $68.7M, Gearbox PURE is at $9.4M Open Trade Value. Growing Lenders Organically With V2, the supply side was largely driven by $GEAR incentives. With V3, we have reduced the $GEAR incentives by over 60% and still seen supplied assets grow by over 3x to $80M. This is because Gearbox's lending side is on course to generate $15.5M for lenders annualized. This enables lending rates of 25% APYs on ETH and 10% APYs on USDC ๐Ÿ”ฅ Lenders earn these yields from borrowers who earn 200% APYs on LRTs, borrow at 10% APYs to margin trade and have other farms that yield 40% APYs as well. This enables borrowers to pay above market rates for ETH and USDC and still earn more. V3's integrations thus make growing Gearbox sustainable without relying on $GEAR emissions. Composability amplifying our partners & friends The cool part about Gearbox is its composability. All the trades, farms, liquidations happen on integrated DEXes and protocols. That means more volumes for them, more fees for them. This way, Gearbox brought about $6๏ธโƒฃB in volumes for @Uniswap, @CurveFinance, and @Balancer over the course of 2023 with its V3! So far, with V3, it has been $100M in basically just a couple of weeks (source in next tweet). Financial Impact for the Gearbox DAO Gearbox DAO, at current levels, is on its way to $5M in revenue annualized. And that comes with a special twist which slowly starts to show its effect: gauges controlled by $GEAR stakers. The interest rates in Gearbox are split into two parts: base utilization rate that everyone is familiar with extra quota rates that are different for every asset you leverage. Protocols and whales can stake their GEAR and make those interest rates lower or higher, essentially creating a market for bribes and Gear Wars... but on that, in next tweet. Next Source of Growth While in terms of $$ value terms the protocol and DAO are doing well, the current limitations of Ethereum Mainnet's Gas fee and the 25ETH minimum borrow make expanding the user base tough. To enable more users to access Leveraged DeFi, Gearbox is deploying on Arbitrum, which would enable users of all sizes to access Leveraged DeFi. This should further bring Arbitrum-native integrations. As for the other mainnet integrations, that could be Ethena, KelpDAO, GHO, Balancer and Aura pools, andโ€ฆ what would you like to see?

The response to leveraged @eigencloud restaking has been phenomenal, hitting the 2.5K ETH restaking limit in under 24 Hours ๐Ÿ”ฅ But, we heard you! Which is why we are ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—น๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐Ÿฏ๐Ÿฌ๐—ž ๐—˜๐—ง๐—› by: 1. Increasing the cap on @ether_fi to 15,000 ETH with a 2X exclusive boost on etherfi points. 2. Introducing @renzoai with a further 15,000 ETH restaking limit. These integrations together increase the ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—น๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—š๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฏ๐—ผ๐˜… ๐—ฏ๐˜† ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฎ๐—ซ, from 2.5K ETH to 30K ETH. But what about the access ninja registration? - Gone! We heard how frustrating the experience was to have to register and mint an NFT to access leveraged restaking. Which is why it'll be gone as soon as the changes go live. So access open to everyone, though, minimum borrow remains 25WETH. Need to keep the buffer there. When ape in? - In 3 days! The limit increase and Renzo integration go live a few hours after GIP-94 end date ie 24th Feb. Users will be able to permissionlessly access leveraged restaking right after, just like it is with PURE margin trading. What to do till then? - Earn passive GEAR! The Gearbox ETH lending pool has seen the supply rates reach 11% as restakers pay a 17.5% borrow fee. This enables even passive lenders to earn substantial returns while not having to actively manage a restaking position. Once limits change to 30K ETH for restaking, these are likely to change a bit again. Go earn without impermanent loss, without fee and no lockups: app.gearbox.fi/pools/ And read up about how it all works here: blog.gearbox.fi/leveraged-reโ€ฆ So get those ETH ready and get ready to earn 10 months of EIGEN points in 1 month with 10x leverage. Only on Gearbox โš™๏ธ๐Ÿงฐ
