2/ Alliance is an open-source Cosmos SDK module that leverages interchain staking to form economic alliances among blockchains.

If we think of blockchains as digital nation-states, Alliance enables the implementation of more sophisticated and promising monetary policy.
3/ Here's how it works:

1๏ธโƒฃ Two chains integrate the Alliance module and decide through governance which assets can be staked on their chain. These are known as Alliance assets.

2022 was the victim of many major #crypto crashes, but three of them stood out the most.

#LUNA\#LUNC | #FTX | #CelticFC

Here's a thread! ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿ‘‡
2- Let's start off with the infamous #TerraClassic, which saw its token at the time, $LUNA (now known as $LUNC) crash from $86 to under $0.01 in just 48 hours which caused $LUNA holders to lose a total of $60 Billion.
3- What happened? Well, over $2 Billion #TerraUSD $UST was unstaked from #AnchorProtocol and many millions of dollars swiftly became liquidated.

#TerraClassic still exists to this day and their community of #LUNAtics still believe in its future, but do you?

1/ On November 24th, 2022, based on the Genesis $LUNA airdrop schedules the community voted on in May, vesting $LUNA will begin to vest at 6am UTC โŒ›

1/ This last week, @stablekwon presented an alternative to the The Terra Expedition Program, outlining a proposal that aims to position Terra at the center of the interchain.

A summary ๐Ÿงต of his thoughts ๐Ÿ‘‡
2/ The Terra Expedition Program has 4 issues:

1๏ธโƒฃ Inorganic developer incentives are short-lived
2๏ธโƒฃ Nothing-at-stake committees are poor capital allocators
3๏ธโƒฃ The proposed spending efficiency is too low
4๏ธโƒฃ Devs need a compelling reason to build on Terra
3/ 1๏ธโƒฃ Inorganic developer incentives are short-lived

Historically, liquidity incentives across chains have led to non-sticky usership and liquidity. When the incentives dry up, so do the users and liquidity. Therefore, these type of incentives provide only a temporary boost.

We noticed something shady going on and once again we are going to call it out.

Based on our analysis, we have reasons to believe @staderlabs is not acting in good faith again. They were previously called out for showing "fake"/higher returns back in Terra Classic.

๐Ÿงต
@staderlabs 2/15
This morning we got kicked out of the active set by a new validator (North Star) and we tweet about it here -

Long story short, @staderlabs redelegated 121k $LUNA to North Star pushing them into the active set.
@staderlabs 3/15
It sounds perfectly fine until you look closer at the details. The delegation to North Star is way oversized and not balanced/spread out evenly with the other validators that has an average of 33k. This screenshot was taken in the morning, it looks even more ridiculous now.

Publishing screenshots of chat with Antithesis, @FatManTerra UST group admin. They lure people in a 10year lawsuit to milk them, will rug pull at some point. Kicked me out over disagreement with that. Antithes lost 300k, needs to recoup losses. Be careful #LUNA #LUNAtics #fatman ImageImage
Context:

Holy! I just discovered another crazy thing happening with the some of the active validators.

I started by looking at the validators charging 20% commission which is pretty high considering that most charges 5-10%.

Something then caught my attention...

Thread ๐Ÿงต Image
2/12
Both Flipside and Angel Protocol have legitimate reasons to charge higher commissions (bounties and charities).

I have written about KingSuper and Autism Staking -

Now let's focus on Luna Whale, Lunatic Validator and Long Live Luna.
3/12
All 3 validators have almost identical setup/configurations:
- No logo
- Generic Luna related names
- 20% commission
- Max commission change rate of 20%
- No website/social media presence/email contact

I started to suspect that someone might be exploiting the system... ImageImageImage

The $LUNA crash was particularly hard on #LUNAtics because many had most of their net worth on #Terra

It was also felt across the #Cosmos because $UST was a base pair on Osmosis, Sifchain & Crescent pools

A quick primer on Modern Portfolio Theory in that context ๐Ÿงต
That thread was actually inspired by that honest & candid post by @larry0x, which I then saw echoed by many other smart people in the Terra community
@larry0x Modern portfolio theory (MPT) is a theory on how investors can construct portfolios to maximise expected return based on a given level of market risk

It involves several useful concepts which I'll do my best to explain here without using the underlying mathematical model

1/10 #LUNAtics, I would like to bring these 2 validators (KingSuper and Autism Staking) to your attention as they have increased their commission significantly.

Thread ๐Ÿงต
2/10 KingSuper had 0% commission and attracted lots of people to redelegate to them. A few days ago, they decided to increase their commission from 0% to 10% without informing the community/their delegators.
3/10 I made this conclusion because I could not find any chat/social media platform on their website. Happy to correct if proven wrong.

Using larry's computation/assumption:
9,850,000 * $6.44 * 0.12 * 0.1 / 12 = $63,434 a month

1) Let me explain what @FatManTerra is really doing. When there is a former top 10 project with a lot of influence and following that irritates other top projects in the space and seems miles ahead in terms of attracting developers and talent.
@HumbFig55 @jofo_real @FatManTerra If he had integrity, he would reply to me and allow his followers to see my points and judge for themselves on whether they're being deceived or not. This sort of behavior that refuses to engage with anyone who doesn't immediately side with him is exactly why I don't trust him.
@HumbFig55 @jofo_real @FatManTerra If you need everyone around you to agree with you before engaging with them then you're part of a cult.

Bang or Bust? ๐Ÿค”

A short thread (5 tweets) of the surprising #LUNA performance since listing ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡
1/ The much anticipated #LUNA 2.0 airdrop took place this weekend & damn was it interesting ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ #LUNC remains the the old version of LUNA and performed well over the weekend pumping more than 50% Image
2/ #LUNAtics in the community have been somewhat negative & unsupportive of LUNA and the fork. Some have remained faithful and believed that the fork and airdrop would hopefully make them whole again after the bloody crash... Image

1/ Block 1 of the brand new Terra blockchain (with a chain_id of โ€œPhoenix-1โ€) has officially been produced at 06:00 AM UTC on May 28th, 2022!

Congratulations to the #LUNAtic community on this expeditious feat of collaboration ๐ŸŽ‰
2/ Those who were eligible for the $LUNA airdrop can view their wallet balances on the new chain by selecting the โ€œPhoenix-1โ€ network in their Terra Station browser extension.
3/ Users can do multiple things with their liquid $LUNA, including staking it on Terra Station to their preferred validator(s) to earn rewards & participate in governance decisions, using it on dApps upon launch, or trading it on an exchange.

1/ Yesterday, we said Terra 2.0 is coming. Tomorrow, it arrives.

The community has been working around the clock to coordinate the new chainโ€™s launch. Subject to potential change, we expect Terra to go live on May 28th, 2022 at around 06:00 AM UTC.
2/ To reach this point so quickly speaks volumes about our incredible community of users, validators, developers, and exchange partners ๐ŸŒŽ

Weโ€™d like to thank each and every one of you for making this possible ๐Ÿค

It started with Terra $LUNA ๐Ÿ”ฅ

But instead of ๐Ÿš€๐ŸŒ–, I flew too close to the sun and came crashing back down to ๐ŸŒ

At the end of 2021 with my portfolio the highest it had ever been, I got cocky, I showed my mum my number and she urged me to "take some out"...
But why would I do that? $LUNA to 1000 was not a meme. We were just getting started...

This episode has been a valuable learning experience ๐Ÿค”

Obviously I have regrets. But without going through this death spiral, I wouldn't have fully appreciated...
1. The necessity of sensible risk management: don't put all my eggs in one basket.

2. Taking profits into cash money in a traditional bank account.

Even if I sold at the 2021 ATH, even if I had withdrawn to my bank, I know I would have gone back into $LUNA when it dipped 50%

1/ Recently, bad actors have been capitalizing on Terra-related events by purchasing $LUNA & posting fake proposals on Station with phishing sites quoted in the link. These proposals claim to lead users to a preview of Terra 2.0 & dApps launched by us - which is not the case.
2/ In addition, we have also seen a rapid increase in spam proposals as the discount on $LUNA made it economically cheap to post anything one desired.
3/ To prevent scams/spam & protect users, props will be added to an allowlist (visible after clicking on โ€œGovernanceโ€ on Station) at this point while we try to find a more sustainable solution in preventing these types of props from being posted on Terraโ€™s Governance platform.

Hi #Lunatics I've had a chance to digest the @TerraBuildersU proposal and OG Holders/users aren't getting a fair shake. Somewhat of an olive branch that whale Anchor wallets aren't being included, but not including $UST in LP positions is pretty terrible.
Also no transparency from any of the Builders on how they plan to airdrop/snapshot holders of Terra Alt tokens. @Cephii1 proposal to capture overall TVL would be much more accurate way to judge users actual economic share of network pre-attack.
At this point I'm really looking at the current proposal as more of an ICO. If you still have any UST or Luna on chain you will get some V2 that will be liquid, but to capture anywhere close to your prior share you will need to put in new funds.
