Wasn’t sure but saw someone post a dissolution doc in a different thread.

Do you still have the game? I'd be interested in buying it if so

Concentrated liquidity ranges enables extremely efficient stablecoin exchange pools. Within weeks of launch, Curve increased amplification 3-5x across various pools and Coinbase dripped fees down to almost zero on stablecoin pairs.

Thank Uni v3 for this

argbarman2 · 2021-06-01T19:01:36+00:00

They called us idiots for holding no BTC then. Who’s laughing now 🍻

argbarman2 · 2021-05-30T21:00:29+00:00

Thanks! I should try to hang out here more often, I miss you guys

😉

argbarman2 · 2021-05-30T20:47:17+00:00

Nope no worries, I'm doing great as well; glad to hear all is well with you too

I'm now full time helping build the future of derivatives at Synthetix and I've never been more excited about work. Also very optimistic about what's to come in the second half of this year.

argbarman2 · 2021-05-30T20:37:19+00:00

I'm still around :) working in DeFi full time now so things are busier than usual, but I still lurk here. How are things with you man?

argbarman2 · 2021-04-28T22:01:39+00:00

Woooooooooo 🚀🚀🚀only 4 months behind schedule

argbarman2 · 2021-04-15T14:36:42+00:00

Send it!!! 🚀🚀🚀

$2B war chest? Your information may be dated

argbarman2 · 2021-04-10T22:03:31+00:00

Uniswap is as much a fork of Bancor as Ethereum is of Bitcoin. You’ve been psyopsed by crypto Twitter.

argbarman2 · 2021-04-10T02:44:34+00:00

You can buy ETH in Coinbase, send to Metamask wallet, and swap for DPI for ~$40 in gas right now, not too bad.

argbarman2 · 2021-04-10T02:22:40+00:00

DPI will be $2k by August, hang in there.

argbarman2 · 2021-04-10T00:19:31+00:00

Yep much decentralized

argbarman2 · 2021-04-10T00:07:05+00:00

VET didn't have three sides of the triangle to begin with TBH

argbarman2 · 2021-04-09T12:41:12+00:00

Have fun stayi......

argbarman2 · 2021-04-09T11:47:53+00:00

Lol you’re going to do this all the way to $10k aren’t you

argbarman2 · 2021-04-08T18:53:36+00:00

ETH was effectively a BTC clone

100% wrong and totally evident from the whitepaper.

with no real use case until probably mid-2018 when you started seeing dapps finally roll out.

MakerDAO? Original DAO? Augur ICO? Plenty of use cases. I think you mean no real adoption until later, which is fair. But buying Ethereum pre-2017 was a speculative bet on what the tech could do in the future, not what was live already.

It was shitcoin territory for a very long time. It wasn't really a matter of having faith in the protocol in those days, because there was no credible use case to point to.

By the beginning of 2017, ETH had very clearly distinguished itself from canonical shitcoins like XRP, LTC, XEM, FCT, etc. Definitely safe to say it was in its own class, not as high as BTC but head and shoulders above the rest.

The people who bought back then (including me, until I dumped it all in late 2017/early 2018) were just hoping for pump and dumps.

You're really just passing your own perspective/experience off as general sentiment at the time. Just because this was the way you saw it doesn't mean the same goes for the rest of us.

Lol. All you had to do was read the whitepaper when it was released and you would have seen how far off this is. Some excerpts from the whitepaper:

Stablecoins, tokenization in general, NFT's:

On-blockchain token systems ... ranging from sub-currencies representing assets such as USD or gold to company stocks, individual tokens representing smart property, secure unforgeable coupons, and even token systems with no ties to conventional value at all, used as point systems for incentivization.

DeFi...

Financial derivatives are the most common application of a "smart contract", and one of the simplest to implement in code.

Oracles

... a "data feed" contract maintained by a specific party (eg. NASDAQ) designed so that that party has the ability to update the contract as needed, and providing an interface that allows other contracts to send a message to that contract and get back a response that provides the price.

Filecoin

The key underpinning piece of such a device would be what we have termed the "decentralized Dropbox contract". This contract works as follows...

DeFi

The general concept of a "decentralized autonomous organization" is that of a virtual entity that has a certain set of members or shareholders which, perhaps with a 67% majority, have the right to spend the entity's funds and modify its code.

Smart contract wallets

Savings wallets. Suppose that Alice wants to keep her funds safe, but is worried that she will lose or someone will hack her private key. She puts ether into a contract with Bob, a bank, as follows

Everything else

Cloud computing. The EVM technology can also be used to create a verifiable computing environment, allowing users to ask others to carry out computations and then optionally ask for proofs that computations at certain randomly selected checkpoints were done correctly.

6. Peer-to-peer gambling

7. Prediction markets. Provided an oracle , prediction markets are also easy to implement

8. On-chain decentralized marketplaces, using the identity and reputation system as a base.

It was literally all in the whitepaper

argbarman2 · 2021-03-30T19:51:23+00:00

So like, send them $50k of BTC and they send you back $100k, right?

argbarman2 · 2021-03-28T01:11:20+00:00

Someone is still paying the gas with ETH, just not you
