User: Hey, I bought this box of Kellogg’s cornflakes over at Tesco, and it’s bad! How can I get a refund/exchange? Mod: Ser, are you aware we are WalMart here? Pls ask Tesco support. User: But their support sucks! Plus, they ask me to come ask you! Mod: 🤷‍♀️

“Ooohhh… I have DEX UI issues” (prob just user’s own network/browser issues). “You guys are no better than CEX! You guys restrict access to my funds!!!” 🤷‍♀️

Guess some folks just like their fish on their plate… rather than learning how to fish…

A short note to appreciate @THORChain Devs and Nodes for smoothly executing the BEP2 Ragnarok. A much under appreciated, thankless task; with minimal benefit except to make good as much as possible the LP depositors (who should have withdrawn themselves anyway)… 💚⚡️

When you have been shouting from the rooftop for weeks… Then someone saunter up and ask “Why didn’t you shout louder?”

Anyways the same thing… “Can you talk to your Management?” Welcome to “real” DeFi, anon.

You don't get to ignore FIVE pings/notifications/reminders to move your convo to a thread on Discord; yet you still chatter on main channel, then claim "I didn't see anything"...

Learn to use block explorers… Or else it’s like you are using paper maps vs those using GPS…

And there you have it. A super simplified intro explainer on how @THORChain works (at least the LP portion). Wanna learn/chat more? Come to @THORChainUni Discord! 💚⚡️

4b- Also, let's make all pools paired with RUNE. Two-fold reasons, 1- reduce fragmentation of pools, and 2- as the value of $RUNE rises and falls, the pools will rebalance so that bonds will always have more value than the pools.

4- Now, how do we ensure the nodes don't just collude and steal the BTC/ETH away? 4a- First, let's make sure all the nodes bond/stake something of value (the $RUNE coin), and the bond value must always be higher than the external assets (BTC/ETH) managed by these nodes.

3- Great! But how do those nodes agree to the accounting of the BTC/ETH LP? Here is where the magic of Cosmos SDK based app-chain comes in. Let's build an independant blockchain to act as the "state machine". Where LP accounting can be tracked via blockchain consensus mechanisms

Here is where the magic of MPC TSS comes in. This allows a group of decentralized nodes to manage BTC/ETH addresses, but in a trust-minimized way, without the private keys ever being exposed, even between those nodes themselves.

2- Unlike e.g. Uniswap (where it's just smart contracts on an EVM), how would you manage a LP with native BTC + native ETH? Well, those native BTC have to be in a BTC address on the BTC blockchain; and the native ETH in an Ethereum address on the Ethereum blockchain.
