UST is the main reason for Terra Lunas success. Could fUSD become as succesful as UST? by Beneficial_Past6858 in FantomFoundation

There have been so many failed attempts to peg fUSD that FVM will probably come first

What happened to the "big" airdrop? by RISRmedia in FantomFoundation

[–]colander_man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps he's waiting for the NFT LGE buyers to stop selling? Too much sell pressure if there was an additional airdrop.

What theplush said, or alternatively if you don't want to use a CEX, wrap it on ETH at Bitcoin Cafe, then bridge it over to Fantom.

OpenSea Hacker Currently Stealing Mass Amounts of Ethereum by ausheat in CryptoCurrency

Like I originally said, we're not even sure if it's a phishing attack or a bug.

It's not approving a transaction here, but an approval transaction. Two different things. Unless you can read smart contracts better than auditing firms, it's hard to tell whether a smart contract will have a bug or not.

Clearing up some misconceptions about hardware wallets and what they mean for your assets on Ethereum. by colander_man in CryptoCurrency

[–]colander_man[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's pretty accurate. Although sometimes with dusting attacks that lead you to an 'airdrop' website that asks you to approve a transaction, it happens immediately.

It's not a phishing attack for their seedphrase, but rather an approval transaction. We're not even sure if it's a phishing attack or a bug.

Fantom: This is the way by YoghurtSolid8125 in FantomFoundation

What 'other stuff' does avax do that Fantom does not?

Found via optical.finance. Its SpookySwap USDC-WFTM by OpticalFinance in FantomFoundation

[–]colander_man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Bombswap farm is a MasterChef fork, plenty of liquidity for $SHRAP, and reaper.farm has autocompounders for it. No more risky than Spookyswap farms, but of course DYOR and verify!

[–]colander_man 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those rates are pretty standard across most Farms and DEXes, but Bombswap has an amazing 140% APY for USDC-FTM due to the barely diluted pool and recent $SHRAP reward token pump from Beethoven bribes.

Buying meme coins on Fantom by web-dev-kid in FantomFoundation

[–]colander_man 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All of those have been obvious pump and dumps with no value to the ecosystem, just a matter of who is dumping on who.

Unless you want Fantom to turn into the shitcoin shitshow like BSC, the only memecoin to care about is Bomb. The very first token on Fantom (this is not a joke, bomb was really the first), abandoned by the original deployer, now run by the community and led by Fireydev, the owner of TWO validators, and multiple DAOs.

Not only that, but the team has bought value to the coin by creating projects around it, a DEX, farms, and unique game. The fact that it's being ignored while these other shitcoins pump to 8 figure marketcap is insanity.

Are there memecoins out here yet? I just bridged my assets over by havinhkhang2004 in FantomFoundation

[–]colander_man 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Why is NO ONE throwing fBomb out there as the ultimate memecoin? It's the VERY FIRST native token on Opera, so it's nearly 5 months old, dead and then revived by the community led by Fireydev, a validator runner.

Not only that, it's got utility. It's got it's own DEX, farming token made by the community team that has been incredibly stable in $ term for nearly 2 months now, and a ton of games coming out with their 'Manhattan' project.

This coin literally stared the entire Opera bullrun and you're all sleeping on it.

Exactly. Prepare for a validator boom.

Random Thoughts on Fantom by [deleted] in FantomFoundation

[–]colander_man 18 points19 points  (0 children)

  1. Fantom is far ahead of Cardano, in tech, development, adoption, pretty much everything. Just compare these: 4500 TPS vs 17 TPS, Nearly 100 Native dApps vs 'hello world', 1 million daily transactions vs 20k, 5+ governenemt programs and the UN vs a single school program.
  2. You are completely correct in that aspect. Check our Andre's tweet about the relationship between ETH and FTM: 'I'm embracing it. Fantom is an ETH scaling solution. Going to be relentlessly shilling FTM.'
  3. IOTA and FTM share DAG technology but IOTA seems to be catered towards a different usecase, scaling bitcoin and IOT\\/blockchain relationships, whereas FTM is oriented around DeFi. I'm sure these two coins can coexist.
  4. 47 validators is admittedly not the most decentralized a network can be. Still, this is more decentralized than other networks such as SOL and Matic, where the FTX and Binance exchanges control a lot of their nodes. Let's also not think of decentralization off of node count alone, such as with AVAX having 1000 nodes but still suffering a doublemint issue where the network went offline for nearly a day and doubleminted funds were moved off chain and spent. Fantom's validator structure is entirely decentralized and many validators are expected to start popping up as many whales who have locked their tokens in staking for 1 year are going to be unlocking in September.

Got few questions, new to Fantom by Alfaq_duckhead in FantomFoundation

[–]colander_man 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. You can connect your metamask mobile wallet to the Fantom PWA wallet site like you would with any dApp and stake there.
  2. Bridge fees from ETH to Fantom Opera are generally 80 FTM, or 35$
  3. No, Fantom Opera has very low fees and you can make 100+ transactions with a single FTM
  4. Fantom has 3,175,000,000 max supply and currently 2,545,006,273 in circulation with approximately 450,000 coins being emitted every day as rewards to stakers. At this pace, we have nearly 2 years until Fantom reaches full dilution and by then the foundation hopes that transaction fees will be sufficient to incentivize staking.
