I've been up all night wondering how you guys are doing. Reading?

Summary of small research #1

1. Creating a giveaway of subscriptions is not enough.
2. Adding a $150 check does not produce the expected results.
3. Telegram Ads campaign can be pending for more than a day.
4. Most of the audience is present on channels with content in English.
5. Posts with big numbers (#bigNumbers) get the most reactions.
6. Audiences respond better to visual elements.
7. The quality of the audience is proportional to the content of the channel.
8. Offering subscriptions for bonuses in clickers and tappers is unnecessarily high.
9. Negative ratings and hatespeech attract the most attention.

So, in the next session, let's talk about the big numbers. We'll throw in pictures, add reactions, throw on the fan - all according to plan. 🤨

Let's Get Started! The First Topic for Our #bigNumbers Series – Gem or Not?

In any EVM L2 garbage, there are large communities filled with various Sybil attackers and multi-account users. Just look at any list of hyped projects offering point farming (or not offering it).
Hundreds of thousands of "users" complete daily tasks, provide liquidity, and compete to bring in referrals or farm their assets first, faster, and more reliably. How’s that L0 drop? Polyhedra? ZK? Conservative million achieved? 😁😁😁

Having studied the criteria used by reward hunters to determine the level of involvement in a project, we can highlight the following average:

1. The only or main product in its field within one blockchain solution.
2. The project has received funding from funds and VCs.
3. The project is supported by ecosystem foundations.
4. The project is little known or not known among users.
5. The project does not have its own token at the moment.

Based on these criteria, shouting loudly "IT'S GONNA RAIN PROFITS!!", I selected several projects.

The first project we'll discuss is, of course, Aave evaA.

1. DeFi on TON is currently very limited in diversity, and evaA is the only lending protocol for the TON/stable pair. Nothing to add, score 20/100. Let’s move on.

2. The homepage features names like Toncoin.Fund (FSL), Frens DAO, Wagmi Ventures, PAKA Fund, Existential Capital. All in place, score 40/100.

3. Recently, public interviews from Ton Foundation team members have increased, and in each, when talking about DeFi on TON, evaA is mentioned. Hard not to notice. Even if there's no direct support, at least marketing (mentions from top public figures in media) counts. Score 60/100.

4. Let's look at the numbers. Reviewing the project's pitch deck, you can see pretty good numbers for the TON blockchain a year ago: 13,500 testnet MAU, 180,000 waitlist, 8,500 feedbacks. Very good. We have 180k potential users willing to use the service. Unfortunately, the reality a year later is different. Now, at the dawn of the TON ecosystem and DeFi sector in particular, the only lending protocol has 4-6k active on-chain users. Just imagine, only 3% of those on the waitlist, a year later. 🤯Where's my farmer hat? It’s been blown away! Score 80/100.

Let's add an extra point for the latest evaA x Tonstakers contest. It just didn’t happen. Use your imagination and picture it. Six thousand active on-chain users of the only lending protocol on TON, going to participate in a contest, but fewer than 10 do. ???? Is this even legal? Score 81/100.

5. So, how much will it rain kak zhe dohuya nasipit? The answer is very simple and clear. We don't know. 😉
Currently, there's a campaign to farm project XP by providing liquidity and loans. Considering all the previous criteria, we can confidently say that the competition is almost zero. Of course, this won't be life-changing for anyone since the number of points is directly proportional to your TVL. #richGetRicher.

Overall score 101/100. True.

To see for yourself, use the link.

Imagining something unrealistically long attached to my nose, I conclude that this gem is not to be missed. Can you afford to miss it?

In the next session, we will reveal more numbers related to experience point farming and effective methods and strategies.

We dive into the series of #bigNumbers sessions and continue exploring the basic tool – the only lending protocol on TON.

Now that we have a clear goal, we need to plan a strategy for fund allocation to maximize the farming of EVAA experience points. Of course, there is no universal answer to how to reach your goal, but I'll try to show you one of the paths I use.

✏️ So, the first thing we need to do is clean up the portfolio and assess the adequacy of the price of each asset.
✏️ Second, choose the best stablecoin for your personal strategy. Thanks to three friends on stage for the USDT, which shed light on us. However, there is a nuance: the EVAA protocol offers wrapped USDT from the Ethereum network with a high APY, low supply, and cancellation risks. Such an asset is not suitable for us.
✏️ Third, convert every overvalued asset into stablecoins.
✏️ Fourth, choose an asset for borrowing. It should have the minimum borrow APY and a sufficient amount in the protocol. Such an asset is tsTON with 1.56% borrow APY - an incredible number!!

Now let's move on to back exercises. 30 seconds, pause, repeat.

While choosing a strategy for the further use of borrowed funds in the protocol, do not forget to monitor the Health Factor. Because at critically low levels, you can be liquidated.

🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Conservatively , we can get 25-35 experience points for every dollar or its equivalent, provided and borrowed from the protocol.

Now let’s look at ways to increase experience point farming.

The project offers three collections of NFT cards that provide various bonuses when using the protocol.

The first – 🟣 EVAA Boost Card – provides a 1.1x multiplier on EVAA XP earned from direct interactions with the protocol and mined through referrals. Additionally, these cards grant access to an exclusive retro drop.
Oh yes, mined through referrals? 😯 Of course! Don't forget about your friends, as you get an extra 5%. And what if your friend also has a boost card?

🤓 😐 ✏️

The EVAA team cares about their friends. They distribute the 🟢 EVAA Friend Card, which allows participation in the project's IDO. My bet is on August-September. Will it play out?

I already participated in the beta test of the protocol and received the third card – 🔵 EVAA Mainnet Card. As a token of gratitude for participation, the project offers an airdrop of their token, and the card confirms participation.

At the Friday AMA session EVAA x BLUM, co-founder Alex mentioned that this card also gives a boost! Fantastic multipliers! We can only hope that these combinations stack and provide an even greater impact on earning experience points. 🐸🐸🐸

Let’s summarize our experience farming strategy in the only lending protocol on TON.

- Supply: 10-18% APY weekly average ✅
- Borrow: 1.56% APY weekly average ✅
- Health rate: 50%
- Referral XP: 5% of earned experience from each referral
- Boost cards: 🟣 Purple x1.1, 🔵 Blue x1.1 (?)
- IDO: August-September 2024. 🟢 Green

Thus, the chosen strategy will yield about 10% annual returns on investment, a large amount of EVAA XP, doesn't fully lock up funds (only 50%), and allows for the use of additional strategies to increase your wealth (have 50% to invest deeper, not bad, huh?).

What exactly these strategies are, we will learn in the next session.

GM! A small update on the #bigNumbers of EVAA XP.

By the way, the floor price for the collection granting access to the IDO hasn't changed.

Do you even read this, or am I just a joke to you?

🤡

Let's continue leveraging the maximum profit strategy.

During the last session, we staked USDT at 18% APY. We borrowed some tsTON at 1.56% APY. We looked left, looked right. Stop. Look straight ahead, we see TON, and it's within its ATH. So, we unstake tsTON -> TON and sell at the spot price.
We get a lot of dirty green tokens and take them to...

To continue, follow the link.

STORM is the only perpetual DEX on TON. TON is so young and inexperienced, it's tear-jerking.

What's interesting about STORM?
1. High yields for liquidity providers.
2. Earning experience points that can be converted into tokens later.
3. Upcoming IDO

Now, let's break it down.
Current yield numbers – ROI ~ 12.41% on any size. 🐸🐸🐸
Of course, assuming the house wins. And the house wins.
🤣

Experience points are awarded for providing liquidity, trading, and completing achievements.
A marketing campaign is underway to attract IDO participants, available only to holders of one of the Market Makers NFTs.

floor - 225 ton
supply - 5555
circulated supply - 809

I would say RED FLAG ALERT 😳

What I don't recommend is buying NFTs for more than 100 ton. Yes, the price might not drop before the IDO and could even rise. However, it’s important to note that all 5555 NFTs are to be distributed (not just before the IDO, but also after). You can get them by participating in trading events and other activities.
For example, to minimize risks, you can participate in the Zealy campaign. Simple tasks, but the prize is the token itself.

Very interesting. 🥰

So, we stake our USDT at an incredible 70% APR and enjoy the ride.
The strategy is built on stablecoins with minimal risk and UNBELIEVABLE returns.

If you are not reading yet, we are coming to you.

It wasn't sadness, it was the devil's dope.


Yes, that's right. The STORM zealy campaign ended quite unexpectedly. There were no notifications, no hype buildup, and no last-minute calls to participate.

Cryin–cryin 😭

Now Let's Move to Our Favorite #bigNumbers

During the campaign, we managed to break into and stay in the top 10. The total experience points farmed during this time amounted to 27,000 XP. Additionally, the profit earned from providing long-term liquidity was around $2,000.

ABSOLUTE UNPRECEDENTED PROFIT

Now for the Expectations 😐

As is well known, projects are not very fond of sharing their hard-earned green bills, so they allocate very small amounts to regular users. Based on the resources spent on farming experience, we can roughly estimate the expected reward.

A conservative million?

Probably not. The life-changing TGE is off the table. Based on pre-TGE activity results, I conservatively expect a reward of about $2,000-$3,000 for the efforts. They need to keep motivating users somehow, right? 🥰

Small Update on the Experiment

- Number of new referrals in EVAA: 1
- Number of new referrals in STORM: 0

➡️➡️➡️

Out of 700 people brought into the channel, they either already had accounts in the projects (haha) or didn't even try to click the link and apply the knowledge in practice.

Nothing.

Very Interesting Day for jettons

The first thing that's been on my mind (#gambleMind) since this morning is the prolonged update of DeDust 🤔. I've been holding SCALE for a long time, as it's clear that the only DEX on TON cannot exist without its token. And the token must be involved in the DEX's functionality, related to commission income, which in turn equals a guaranteed pump.

This seems complicated, let's try again.

As a gambler, I cannot not to short SCALE ❌ for several reasons:
😞 Prolonged protocol update
😞 Long absence of staking rewards
😢 Huge volume of liquidity providers' fees for over a year that is going to be distributed with the upcoming update

Considering these factors, a price drop is ensured. I'm closely monitoring the situation to jump in 🏃‍♂️ in case of positive news.

The next thing that caught my interest, of course, is the trading contest organised by TF.

Trading shitcoins is great and fun, especially when there's a chance for free rewards for participating in the 🤗 squad. That's why I won't share my referral link. But I find the idea of abusing this campaign very interesting. How will they exclude fake swap numbers on DEXs? 🤔

TON is being mastered by professional teams of market makers and trading developers, so it should be doubly fun to watch the onchain competition. Looking forward to the start.

May the trickest one win!

...
Speaking of market making teams, I found a great euphemism for the term SHAVE in Gotbit.Andrunin's quote.

So much to do. So much to do. ❤️

– To pay, you need to earn.

☕️

A new experiment to help improve your physical or financial health:
No earnings, no coffee.

I think I've won.
🥳

🔋 From a user's point of view, I liked the experience of participating in the draw.
Nice interface, smooth animations, wallet connection and purchase - two touches.
It would be more convenient, to use quick select buttons for tickets, e.g. 10, 20, 50, 100.

❌ From the point of view of the creator of the draw, no.
And here are a few reasons for that:
1. The search shows all the collections available on the marketplace, not just the ones I have. Fix the filters.
2. Indirect ownership of nft should be excluded from the filters. It is very strange that I am offered to create an nft draw while the actual owner of the nft is sale contract.
3. Could this be optional?

If at least one ticket has been sold, the raffle will be conducted (even with only one participant).

So yes, more or less valuable lots will not be presented there.

Last weekend, I spent some time exploring new tools, and a few of them really impressed me. The first product is veles.finance. This is a very interesting platform for creating trading bots with a huge amount of customization options for any strategy.

💸

What struck me most was the ability to connect to any exchange in just two clicks. The tool has a zero entry threshold. For myself, I chose the TON long 📈 strategy from the showcase of ready-made bots. Without going into details, I configured the sliders and buttons for x25 isolated margin, connected it to Bybit and funded my account with $1000. It turned out to be very aggressive. 🤬

The strategy can be tested with back tests. The one I chose showed a 9/10 rating based on the last two weeks of data. ✅

In two days, the "money button" brought me not just coffee money, but Irish coffee money. 💰 The commission system is very convenient - a $50 daily limit. This will play a huge role in larger volumes and the number of trades.

The only thing I, as a new user, would like to see on the platform is the display of the overall PnL with a chart and a list of trades.

Now for an experiment:
If this post gets 100 - 500 upvotes (meaning it's a very interesting post), I will continue testing the “money button”, increasing the number of strategies and the deposit by 5-10 times.

For the next review, I only need 10 of you. Please follow the link. 🤩
