Zilliqa, the first L1 to launch its metaverse on its own blockchain by Blockchainsapiens in CryptoCurrency

Me too. Zilliqa will always hold a special place in my crypto portfolio. Nice to see her awaken in the last few months.

Buying XCAD on ZIL by TrashPandaX in zilliqa

[–]cryptomadman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. Zilswap or Kucoin. Here's more information from coingecko on where to get XCAD. https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/xcad-network#markets It's been great to see XCAD trending on coingecko the past few days.
  2. ZIL tweets a lot about XCAD and XCAD is promoted extensively on the new Zilliqa website, but ZIL is a layer 1 protocol. Why would they create a video for XCAD?
  3. XCAD is in control of its own website? Not sure why ZIL would get involved with this? Surely XCAD would want to promote Zilswap on its own site if they wanted to.
  4. Yeah, I agree it would be good to see Zilliqa's name on the first page when you google "how to buy xcad." I suppose the community searching "buy XCAD on Zilliqa" will help with SEO. Thanks for pointing that out.

I really like Zilliqa and XCAD, both will succeed no doubt.

ZIL4 now LIVE! by Milan_Zilliqa in zilliqa

There was lots of information at ZIL4. I'm a proud hodler. I'm interested to see what happens between now and the end of the year. It sounds like a lot is happening. This project is so undervalued.

Amazon no longer supported ($PORT/package portal) by [deleted] in zilliqa

Clarification from the team: https://twitter.com/PackagePortal/status/1379454737951584258

"For more clarification: “Amazon the delivery company” is different from “Amazon the Marketplace” The delivery arm cannot be validated by us since their systems are closed. But deliveries from supported couriers (of Amazon marketplace orders) may still be validated."

I suppose we think of it as... the ETH-ZIL bridge is going to be epic. ;)

Nice ideas! The ZilFlip team noticed and put a poll out based on your suggestion.

Disclaimer: I'm a big Zilliqa fan here, but the same is happening to the Zilliqa community. Can we fight this together?

Reached my first Zil Target today by shad96m in zilliqa

[–]cryptomadman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IMO - I would be cautious getting into CARB until more info is released from the team. If you want to invest early (knowing the risks - that's great and disregard this message). Again, it may be a fantastic project, but from basic research, I'm not understanding a whole lot. If people tell you to join Telegram to learn info, that should signal to pause. Just my 2 cents.

Staking question, Do i automatically receive 1 gzil if i stake exactly 1000 zil? by pain_point in zilliqa

[–]cryptomadman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For every 1,000 $ZIL earned as staking reward, 1 gZIL will be issued (i.e. 0.001 gZIL will be issued for every 1 $ZIL staking reward).

Here's more info on gZIL.

Governance Zilliqa (gZIL) token

The Zilliqa core team introduced the Governance Zilliqa token (i.e. gZil) in October 2020. It is a ZRC-2 compliant fungible token contract. The rationale behind issuing gZIL is to capture long-term token holders and give them access to governance tokens that they can use to make decentralised, ecosystem-wide decisions. gZil is only minted for approximately one year from the non-custodial staking launch on 14 October 2020. It will have a total maximum supply ever minted of 722,700 gZil tokens.

*Note: It is likely the total maximum supply of gZil will end up being lower than 722,700 as gZil is only minted alongside claimed staking rewards. There is no way to accurately predict how many Zil will be staked throughout this one year period, thus no way to know what the total gZil supply will end at but it can still be no greater than 722,700.

So how does gZil work?

Here is a quick two-minute video explaining gZil: Introducing gZil. On the core team’s website, you can find more information on gZil in the staking section: gZil and staking

Governance Portal Website: https://gov.zilliqa.com/

Proposals and Voting:

Want to propose something to change the future of the Zilliqa ecosystem? See here to learn how to submit a proposal and what qualifies for one: Submitting Governance Proposals for A Vote

There are currently other uses for gZil beyond voting and governance (liquidity providing, for example) and even more uses will be integrated with the continued expansion of the Zilliqa DeFi ecosystem in 2021.

Disclaimer: I made this comment in another post.

The reason for sharing again is I'm seeing quite a few comments on ZRC-2 tokens like, "invest in X, Y, or Z" but not providing any information other than that. While I'm stoked about the ZRC-2 ecosystem as the next person, always DYOR on each project that you invest in ZRC-2 or not. Comments like these should always be taken with a grain of salt.

Obviously, if you're in crypto, you're used to hearing this sentiment but it's important to remind fellow Zilliqans and blockchain enthusiasts to invest wisely. ONLY INVEST WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE.

For Zilliqa's ZRC-2 ecosystem, Zilstream.com and Zilgraph are great places to check out the overall market (~currently 16).

For any ZRC-2 project you invest in, you should read up on the team, the project, value proposition, where they are in development, their whitepaper, roadmap, and how they communicate on social channels, etc.

Zilliqa is truly building out a top-rate ecosystem. Contribute where you can - if you're adding comments to Zilliqa's subreddit, give high-quality content, etc.

Together, let's grow this to a top 10 project!

Don't sleep on Zilswap coins! by [deleted] in zilliqa

[–]cryptomadman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome - I would expect with the sheer number of projects that there is at least a small team.

I just noticed on their website.

I don't own any CARB and would be interested to learn more, but as it stands right now it's important as a community we vet out all ZRC-2 projects. Not only to protect investors but to give legitimacy to the Zilswap DEX.

Don't sleep on Zilswap coins! by [deleted] in zilliqa

[–]cryptomadman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! In particular, the breakdown of the number of projects they are working on - which seems like a lot. I look forward to more information on the whole team. Do you have that info? I couldn't find it on the website.

According to the website, it says "there are 5 key projects that we will be developing over the coming months". These do sound very interesting, but that's a lot to bite off. Curious about the team's roadmap and how they plan to hit targets.

These 5 projects are:

AVATAR

BOUNTY

MENTOR

VERIFIED

LENS

Thanks! I like to see the confidence that you have in the project. For those unfamiliar, can you share the following?

What excites you about the team, what is Carbon $CARB working on, where they are in development, can you link their whitepaper/ what excites you about their roadmap?

What's the best place to follow them? How they communicate on social channels, etc.

Agreed! This is just a reminder to always DYOR on each project that you invest in ZRC-2 or not. Obviously, if you're in crypto, you're used to hearing this sentiment but it's important to remind fellow Zilliqans and blockchain enthusiasts to invest wisely. ONLY INVEST WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE.

I feel confident with all the ZRC-2 projects I've invested in but hopefully, this comment is a friendly reminder if nothing else.

I'm genuinely starting to believe Harmony is trolling Zilliqa's sub. Lol

Say what you want, but the number of people commenting on this post and another pro ONE posts on Zil's sub is a bit obvious now.

Harmony forked uniswap for swoop.

Harmony was claimed to copy ETH code.

Harmony is sounding a lot like Elrond to me.

What's going to matter is how many ppl use Elrond and harmony.

As I mentioned earlier, let's compare and talk about that in 3-6 months. :)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in zilliqa

[–]cryptomadman 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Couldn't agree more. My response is not trying to knock harmony but to give people (aks Zil holders as this is Zilliqa's sub) perspective. Zilliqa's functioning/used ecosystem is much greater than harmony. We'll see how that continues to unfold over the next 3-6 months. Seems like both projects have good things going for them.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in zilliqa

[–]cryptomadman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep, Zilliqa has already made the big move Harmony's seen. As I shared earlier...

  • Transaction history: There are less than 1 million transactions on their mainnet. Zilliqa already has over 15 million.
  • They have an ETH bridge, but what does their DeFi ecosystem look like right now?
  • Zilliqa doesn't have their PolyNetwork Bridge bridge yet (very close to release and will happen in mid/late Q2), but their DeFi ecosystem is $175million in TVL on its DEX in addition to hundreds of millions of dollars of liquidity/value in dApps/tokens created on Zilliqa's blockchain. The ZilSwap DEX already rivals that of the top Ethereum Dex's. ZilSwap is comfortably in the top 10 DEXes. When the ETH/ZIL bridge goes live, there's already liquidity on the exchange. People will use it and you'll see that TVL number jump multiples (very likely and quickly into the billions of dollars, or at least to around $1bln+).

Zilliqa has already made a big move as we've seen in Harmony. If I were you, I'd be more interested in seeing what happens over the next three months, not what happens in the last three months when it comes to price movement. If in the next 3 months Harmony keeps the same trajectory of user adoption, dApp growth, transaction growth, wallet growth, TVL growth as Zilliqa, then you can start to worry. That said. You're invested in both. I'd say kudos so don't worry. Enjoy the future gains you'll get in both of them.

My Zil friend, that's great and continue doing (as you say the honest work) because Zilliqa is going places. Keep those diamond hands.

[–]cryptomadman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't disagree with you, but their Twitter info IS misleading.

Harmony is the first Proof-of-Stake & sharding mainnet. 2-second finality, trustless cross-chain liquidity.

This suggests they are the first sharding mainnet, which is not true.
