New Year AMA with Sasha 20/12/24
The New Year AMA session with the Waves’ founder Sasha Ivanov is here! Sasha has covered this year’s latest ecosystem events, answered questions from the community members and prepared some cool holiday contests for the viewers. Find the full version of the stream here.
//Recap Start//
Key Points:
- As you know we've already launched Memepad, a launchpad for anyone who wants to launch their meme on Units Network, in conjunction with the MemeCity platform. Some of the platform's memecoins have already reached TVL of 1 million USD.
- I would also like to mention that a number of projects, which were not particularly active lately, are starting to return to active development. For instance Keeper Wallet, which I consider one of the most convenient means of onboarding into the Waves network and I think that it is definitely worth developing in this direction
- Overall, the new year is very promising, we have a lot of new project launches on Units Network, a Launchpad for meme tokens on Waves and a number of other launches to look forward to.
Q & A
Q: Please relaunch the Neutrino Protocol!
Sasha: I think this is quite possible, and we have plans to run similar protocols on Units Network.
Q: Similar as in new and unrelated to Neutrino? What about NSBT holders?
Sasha: Don't worry, the Neutrino Protocol itself will continue to operate based on the Waves Ecosystem Index. However, given the legacy nature of the Neutrino Protocol, we better launch a separate project, much more stable and reliable.
Q: How is it going to happen exactly?
Sasha: $NSBT holders receive income from the Waves Ecosystem Index through participation in the Neutrino DAO.
Q: What did you mean by saying that Keeper Wallet is back to development again?
Sasha: I meant that Keeper Wallet is back under active development and will continue to gain new functionality.
Q: What projects can we expect to launch in the near future?
Sasha: Power DAO will start onboarding together with the launch of a separate Telegram app. Units Wallet will also evolve, it will add support for multiple networks, swap functionality and a questing platform for onboarding new users with rewards in UNIT0. I think we are expecting a lot of launches on Units Network including DEx, and a few more unannounced projects. And we will definitely be paying attention to the scaling potential of the Waves blockchain.
Q: Regarding the Power DAO onboarding, will there be any rewards for new users?
Sasha: Of course! They will have to fulfill a certain KPI, and if it is met, they will receive rewards in $PWR tokens.
Q: Is this a relaunch of the Ambassador DAO?
Sasha: Not quite. I think Ambassador DAO will continue to operate but will be split into two parts. The first will operate through Mother DAO and will be an onboarding campaign for a wide audience of participants with a separate Telegram app, and the second will work with major Influencers.
Q: What about gateways for the Units Network that will serve as external blockchains? Without UNIT0 transfers to the Waves network for example.
Sasha: Yes, gateways with this kind of functionality should be available on Units Network in January.
