- Massive news today: Shanghai Upgrade date confirmed π β‘οΈ
β’ 16.5M ETH has been staked so far (~30B USD)
β’ 25% solo stakers. 30% LIDO. 12% Coinbase.
β’ Date: 12 April, 2023
𧡠Thread: How do ETH withdrawals work? Who are the stakers? Can all of this affect ETH price?
1/11
β’ What is the Shangai Upgrade? The road so far
As you know, with The Merge ETH migrated from POW to POS.
In POS, ETH is staked to secure the network. People have been staking ETH since December 2020.
2/11
β’ What is the Shangai Upgrade? The road so far
Up until now, stake ETH was one-way. Stakers could not withdraw it.
However, LSD solutions such as Lido appeared and allowed people to mint tokens such as stETH which are close to 1:1 trading, enabling staked ETH liquidity.
3/11
β’ What is the Shangai Upgrade?
The Ethereum network is set to upgrade in Apr 12th 2023.
The upgrade will bring changes to the network, including the ability to withdraw staked ETH, worth 30B USD.
Not all ETH would be able to be withdrawn at once.
4/11
β’ Who are the stakers?
Lido: 29%
Solo stakers: 25%
Coinbase: 12%
Kraken: 7.5%
Binance: 6.1%
Others: 20.4%
5/11
β’ How much ETH will be withdrawn?
Not all 15M ETH can be withdrawn at once. There is a queue for validators to gradually unlock it.
There are two types of withdrawals, partial and full.
6/11
β’ Withdrawal types
1. Partial: only interests out, not capital (staked ETH). Maximum amount of ETH possible to be taken is 1M or 1.6B USD
2. Full: interests + capital. Rate limited to only 54,000 ETH/day
(7 validators/epoch. 225 epochs/day) | (24*60)/6.4*7*32 = 54,000
7/11
β’ Sell pressure
With 50,400 max ETH withdrawable per day, that's 80M maximum potential sell pressure daily.
Last 24hs ETH trading volume was 9B according to CoinGecko.
80M is less than 1% ETH's last 24hs trading volume.
8/11
β’ LSD = Liquid Staking Derivatives
We also need to consider that ~57% of ETH stakers have liquid access to their ETH thanks to solutions like Lido or Rocketpool.
So these people could have sold long ago, they did not have to wait until April 12 like the other 43%
9/11
β’ ETH issuance in POW?
Before The Merge, block reward was 2.2 ETH per block. At an AVG rate of 15 seconds/block, that is around 11,500 ETH per day.
10/11
Some of the information from this thread was taken from this report by Binance Research: π https://research.binance.com/en/analysis/ethereum-shanghai-upgrade
And Dune: π https://dune.com/hildobby/eth2-staking
11/11
Final thoughts on Shanghai
β’ The Shanghai Upgrade is a crucial step in the development of the Ethereum network.
β’ It might cause some price movement in the short term, but for me it is bullish for the ecosystem long term.
ETH has been deflationary in the last 7 days.

- **AIRDROP STRATEGY: OliveYield π«**
@ 0xOlive is a DeFi protocol where you can deposit crypto and earn yield with their vaults and strategies. Similar to Ribbon Finance
Remember the $RBN airdrop? It was worth 30,000 USD to some
π§΅Thread: how to potentially get an $OLIVE airdrop πͺ
1/8
β
What is Olive?
A DeFi protocol that operates vaults generating yield to users
β
How does the yield generate?
With DeFi Vault Strategies. 2 types of vaults:
β’ Covered call (yield in crypto. Deposit WBTC, earn WBTC)
β’ Put sell (yield in USDC. Deposit USDC, earn USDC)
2/8
β
$OLIVE token?
Their token is already confirmed, 40% is destined for the community.
This 40% can be used for Community Rewards such as:
β’ Trading rewards
β’ Staking
β’ Liquidity mining
β’ Airdrops πͺ
π Tokenomics and Docs: https://docs.oliveapp.finance/olive/tokenomics/olive-token
3/8
β
$OLIVE airdrop? πͺ
Unlike the token, no airdrop has been confirmed yet.
There are hints in their docs, however, that some of the 40% destined for the community might be used to airdrop early users.

Airdrop strategy β‘οΈ
1. Go to Olive:
π https://bit.ly/3DNC0tL (olimpio's referral link, helps me a lot)
π https://bit.ly/40ADBgf (no referral link)
2. Choose a vault
3. Deposit funds to earn yield
5/8
β
Risks π¨
It's important to know that sometimes the vaults lose money!
Olive shows "Success Rate": the percentage of weeks that the vaults were profitable
There's also "How it works", where you can see exactly how a vault works and how the yield generates

- **$STRK from StarkWare was officially deployed in Ethereum on November 2022. πΊ**
Since then, the team has been moving tokens around.
Some expect an airdrop and token launch to happen later this year πͺ
A thread: how to potentially get and what we know about $STARK so far π§΅
1/7
Quick recap:
β’ $STRK is the token of StarkWare: an $8B web3 company that invented the StarkNet tech stack (StarkEx, StarkGate, etc).
β’ Everyone was speculating with a $STARK token/airdrop until scammer Zhu Su from 3AC leaked an email from StarkNet confirming the token
2/7
β’ StarkWare was then forced to confirm the token, so they released three blog posts:
1. StarkNet Sovereignty π https://medium.com/starkware/part-1-starknet-sovereignty-a-decentralization-proposal-bca3e98a01ef
2. Decentralization and Governance π https://medium.com/starkware/part-2-a-decentralization-and-governance-proposal-for-starknet-23e335645778
3. StarkNet Token Design π https://medium.com/starkware/part-3-starknet-token-design-5cc17af066c6
Tokenomics π
3/7
Token utility
This token will be required for:
(i) governance,
(ii) payment of transaction fees on StarkNet, and
(iii) participation in StarkNetβs consensus mechanism (staking)
4/7
Airdrop information πͺ
They allocated 9% for "Community provisions":
β’ Being the StarkEx L2 user (dYdX, Immutable X, etc).
β’ Snapshot: June 1, 2022
If you got the dYdX airdrop, you probably have $STARK too
This is open to interpretation, the original text below π
5/7
There is also 8.1% that's "Unallocated", to be decided by the community.
This can also mean an airdrop to past StarkNet users if the community decides it.
This is why some still speculate that trying new StarkNet protocols (even now) might get them $STARK in the future
6/7
What else do we know?
The official $STRK smart contract has already been deployed:
π https://etherscan.io/token/0xca14007eff0db1f8135f4c25b34de49ab0d42766
β’ Total supply: 10B
β’ Transactions: 404
β’ Holders: 226
Speculation: StarkWare is moving $STRK to investors so they get the token before TGE
7/7
Bottom Line
β’ There has not been a $STRK airdrop confirmed for StarkNet Early Network participants, but there is around 8% of the supply that's "unallocated"
β’ Here is an Airdrop Strategy to try a few protocols π

Braavos myBraavos
β’ A wallet for the StarkNet ecosystem, an alternative to ArgentX
β’ Features: transaction explainer, NFT display, swaps
β’ Download: braavos.app/
Alpha: Braavos raised $10M in funding from Pantera Capital, StarkWare, and others
7/7
Security Reminder: don't forget that using a hardware wallet within an interface of one of those wallets can drastically increase the security of your funds.
Also, pay attention to wallets being open sourced or not. I still think MetaMask is the safest one. π¨
Thanks frens, more alpha incoming β‘οΈ
- **$SWELL token will eventually launch**
Swell Network is a liquid ETH staking solution, competing with Lido and Rocketpool. It has investors like Mark Cuban.
Airdrop strategy: how to potentially get a $SWELL airdrop πͺ
1/8
What is Swell Network?
β’ Swell Network is a permissionless, non-custodial Ethereum liquid staking protocol. Could be considered a competitor to Lido and Rocketpool
β’ Some VCs and Angel Investors (i.e. @RyanSAdams, @TrustlessState from Bankless) are in
2/8
How does it work?
β’ Swell supports atomic deposits, allowing users to deposit ETH to the validator of choice
β’ To "liquify" non-fungible stakes, they mint & return an NFT, (swNFT)
β’ swNFT contains swETH + information about the stake
β’ swNFT is exchanged 1:1 to swETH
3/8
Roles on Swell:
β’ Node Operator: min. 16 ETH required
β’ Staker: min. 1 staked ETH
(the minimum staked amount might change)
4/8
What's the current stage of the project?
β’ The staking paused since October
β’ The team will launch it again in early 2023
β’ There was an issue with 2 validators on September. As they are fixing the issue (no loss of funds) the roadmap has been pushed a few months.
5/8
What do we know about the $SWELL token?
β’ $SWELL was confirmed on Discord
β’ Their website says "Community-driven protocol", indicating a DAO structure
6/8
How to potentially qualify for an airdrop? πͺ
β’ As always: it's about using the protocol (contributing to its development)
β’ TheΒ staking is now paused, but after the re-launch, we will be able to use it
7/8
Benchmark: let's check how $LDO airdrop has gone
They allocated 4,000,000 to early adopters (holders & stakers of stETH). This was 0.4% of the total supply, on the lower end.
π‘ Eligible users were holders of stETH and LPs on the curve pool
8/8
Swell has not been widely shared yet here in CT.
Usually, less participation = more % to users who interact with the protocol.
We cannot do anything rn, but this might be a good thing. Save this thread and website, monitor their discord π
You know where the alpha is β‘οΈ

Sorry if anyone is stuck with liquidity at FTX. Let's hope it gets resolved, these have been bad days for the industry

- 3 days for the Ethereum Merge π
ETH will be forked, that's a fact. Everyone will have ETH and $ETHW in their wallets
Can $ETHW be sold?
Short answer: yes
Long answer: it's simply an unnecessary risk, and probably not worth it
Here is how to do it - and why you shouldn't π¬
bordel.wtf predicts the Ethereum Merge to be on Sep 15.
Some other sites are saying Sep 14!
The Ethereum Foundation is doing a viewing party live on Youtube: youtube.com/watch?v=Nx-jYgI0QVI
The chain will split. Ethereum will continue normally on POS, and miners will fork it and create $ETHW.
What happens then?
1. The entire blockchain has two identical instances
2. All ETH, tokens and transactions exist in POS and POW
3. All DeFi positions exist in POS and POW
This is a major milestone
All assets but $ETHW will tend to 0 faster than we can imagine on POW chain.
The only place to get real value from ETHW will be CEXEs, because anything on the Proof of Work chain will be worthless.
And ETHW too, soon enough
Miners promoting $ETHW don't seem very competent. They plan to update the chainid (to prevent replay attacks) *after* the merge happens. This is not a good sign.
Look at coinbase asking them to provide clarity on what the hell it is they plan on doing
github.com/ethereumpow/go-ethereum/pull/17
Replay attacks = you broadcast a txn in one chain, and someone (most likely a bot) broadcasts it for you on the other one, effectively mirroring the operation
Imagine you send 100 ETHW to Poloniex to dump, a bot can send your 100 real ETH on Mainnet to the same Poloniex address
In this particular example funds might not be lost forever (as Poloniex holds all the keys) but chaos and uncertainty will most likely occur
Driving attention away from the real, tangible and important milestone accomplished that day: the Ethereum Merge
I'd stay 100% out of ETH POW
If you insist, here are a few things you can do to prevent replay attacks, in case the chainid is the same
1. Use up nonces
Make transactions in POS (after the merge) that are risk-free (for example, sending yourself 0 ETH) to increase your nonce #
You can now operate in POW without risk of replay up until that nonce
Important: make sure, by monitoring etherscanW, that a bot is not mirroring your first transactions from POS into POW
2. Move your assets / ETH
After the merge, send your ETH on POS from your main wallet to a second wallet you control
Now you send your ETHW to Poloniex to dump. If someone tries to replay this on POS, txn will fail since you already moved it before, to your second wallet
There will be an RPC for users to set up in MM to be able to connect to Ethereum Proof of Work
Right now there is a testnetW RPC that users can add in advance, but I won't link it here - check their official medium articles
Keep in mind that the chainid situation is unclear β οΈ
There is also a leverage play here: borrowing ETH ahead of the merge and repaying the loan as soon as it happens
Aave has paused the ETH market, and now cannot be borrowed
The two places you can borrow ETH are Compound (5% APY) and Euler Finance (~10% APY)
For ETHW to hold some value, someone has to buy it, probably on CEXes: don't be one of the people that do, you'll be insta dumped. It's all psyops
If you are trying to sell ETHW: I would consider staying completely out of the Proof of Work chain
ETHW futures are trading at $18 on Bitmex: bitmex.com/app/trade/ETHPOWZ22
$55 "Bitcoke": bitcoke.com/trade/ETHFUSD
This is what the market thinks ETHW would be worth. It will only go down from there when the dump starts
Unless you are a whale, all of this is probably not worth it
I will be joining the live YouTube stream to see the Ethereum Foundation greet the Merge -
if you plan on selling your ETHW airdrop, make sure you don't mess up and end up losing your assets

- **$SWELL airdrop confirmed πͺ**
We have alpha from @swellnetworkio discord - they will be airdropping tokens to people that staked ETH with their platform
π§΅
Quick recap: Swell is a protocol similar to Lido and Rocketpool, it allows users to stake their ETH and accrue interest
I posted about swell in Discord on September 2022, when they were on their "Guarded Launch" stage
Swell's "Guarded Launch" ran from August 23 to September 16.
People could deposit up to 10 ETH and receive swETH.
They confirmed that people that staked in their Guarded Launch will be airdropped tokens when they launch πͺ
Only 176 people was able to get in before the window closed π
$SWELL is under development.
We should wait until announcements are made in the future, this stage is extremely early
It could be possible to get $SWELL if we do something right now: they might chose to airdrop not only to Guarded Launch stakers but new users too
Swell did an architecture update recently, now they work similar to how Lido does (with a token that appreciates in value as interest accrues)
Full details: π https://blog.swellnetwork.io/update-on-swells-architecture-upgrade/
Here is a more detailed thread how the protocol worked:
https://twitter.com/OlimpioCrypto/status/1592614882301513728
Right now, ETH staking is paused, but "Stage 2" will launch and staking will resume, eventually.
No dates explicitly disclosed so far, so stay tuned. I will update when there's news

- Crypto Twitter found **DefiLlama's beta DEX** aggregator 2 days ago π¦
Here is how to interact and potentially get airdrops: πͺ
1/5
DefiLlama is a website with open & transparent DeFi analytics.
They are building an aggregator of DEXs , combining the prices from OTHER aggregators like Matcha, 1inch, CowSwap
Try it here:
π swap.defillama.com
2/5
This aggregator was not intended to be public yet (it's on beta) and has not been announced formally by the team.
It does work, however.
When it was found, they were forced to comment on the matter:
3/5
Blockchain trades still link your wallet to the actual DEX.
So, for example, if a swap via DefiLlama DEX goes through Matcha, and then Matcha launches a $MATCHA airdrop to traders, then that trade would be eligible
They even put a πͺ emoji next to DEXs with no token
4/5
Is there a chance DefiLlama will make an airdrop of its own token?
They are just delivering the UI and do not have their own smart contracts deployed, meaning they cannot take a snapshot.
So not for now. However, trying new DeFi protocols could pay off in the future
5/5
I'm not sure if this is possible, but maybe there is a way for them to link referral fees generated from trades and reward those users later.
π‘ This would depend on how each aggregator's referral program works (1inch, paraswap, etc)

- DeBank just launched a new feature: Web3 Chats! π¬
They don't have a token yet.
Thread: How to send an on-chain message right now with "DeBank Hi" π§΅
1/8
What is DeBank?
β’ The leading Web3 portfolio tracker
β’ Supporting 37 chains
It enables a clear overview of the assets in a particular wallet.
Try here: http://debank.com
Recently, they announced a new feature: Debank Hi
2/8
What is DeBank Hi?
β’ It's a new functionality of DeBank, providing an on-chain & encrypted communication based on wallet addresses
β’ It's based on 'attention-as-an-asset' mechanism
3/8
How does it work?
β’ Every time users receive a message (or open the app), they get attention "points"
β’ The behaviour of the users is treated as an asset
β’ This asset appears in the form of NFTs (and would be priced)
4/8
How are the messages priced?
They use an offer price curve.
As a user receives more messages (and they get unanswered) price to DM them increases.
Full description: http://debank.com/hi-whitepaper
5/8
Using the Hi might be an airdrop criteria, if they ever launch a token.
How to try "Hi":
β’ First, go to https://debank.com/account and register on DeBank's L2 (you need to send a transaction to ETH Mainnet)
6/8
β’ After registering in DeBank's L2, deposit some USDC to be spent on sending messages. You can also withdraw USDC to Mainnet later
β’ Now, send a message to anyone. To DM me, this is my wallet. You can also follow me:
https://debank.com/profile/0xf4b0556b9b6f53e00a1fdd2b0478ce841991d8fa
7/8
Bonus:
Another way to do something in the platform is to vote for proposals with your wallet (gasless)
β’ Enter http://debank.com/vote & vote for proposals (You can also create your own one)
8/8
Is $DBANK confirmed?
Not for now.
Here's something they tweeted a few months ago π‘

- Another way to implement Zero-Knowledge Proofs in the space: **ZK Badges** π
In a post, Vitalik talked about @Sismo_eth, a protocol that issues ZK Badges.
They are privacy-preserving Soul-Bound Tokens (non-transferrable NFTs).
SISMO does not have a token. How does it work? π§΅
1/
What is Sismo?
It's a protocol that allows people to issue and mint ZK Badges.
What is a Zero Knowledge Badge?
It's a Soul-Bound Token (non-transferable NFT) that can provide evidence of something without revealing the actual information.
Example π
2/
Example:
Say I want to prove to all of you that I received a $100,000 DYDX airdrop without revealing the wallet that received it.
I could "earn" the badge using that wallet (private) but "mint" the badge using my olimpio.eth wallet (public)
Thanks @dhadrien_ for slides β‘οΈ
3/
Another example:
Remember Proof of Humanity? A website where you upload a selfie video of yourself holding a piece of paper with your wallet.
Well, I could now do that with my private wallet, and mint a "human-verified" Sismo badge with olimpio.eth without linking wallets.
4/
What can we do with Sismo right now?
We can mint a badge that someone already created.
Or, we can create our own badges as well for others to mint. Some ideas come to mind, stay tuned π
5/
How to check if you are already eligible to mint an existing badge?
β’ Mint Badges vetted by the team: π app.sismo.io
β’ Mint Badges created by anyone in web3: π playground.sismo.io
Log in, launch your vault, and check your eligibility.
6/
Recently, Sismo has started a cooperation with @aztecnetwork, a privacy layer for web3.
If you deposited to Aztec at least 3 times, you can mint a badge here (gives you a DC role):
π playground.sismo.io/aztec-connect-depositors
BTW, here is more Aztec alphaπ: twitter.com/OlimpioCrypto/status/1609259055075463169
7/
$SISMO token or airdrop? πͺ
No token was confirmed, yet. No airdrop was confirmed. We are speculating here!
Investors:
They did not release any official communication about this, but they had an angel round with VCs like Framework, Seedclub, Delphi and IDEO
8/
π‘ Vitalik mentioned Sismo in one of his blog posts.
vitalik.eth.limo/general/2022/12/05/excited.html
He did the same thing with ENS when it wasn't a big thing.
"Sismo is [at] an early start"
Might be a good idea to take a look

(It was only accessible for OG discord members & those who were fast)
4/6
6 days ago, they posted this tweet
We have confirmation that Rage Trade will have a token. It usually is a good strategy to reward early and past users.
No airdrop talk so far, but could be a good idea to interact with their smart contracts
