Cardano and Algorand are now connected via the launch of Milkomeda A1 Rollup that went live on the Algo mainnet, an elated Charles Hoskinson tweeted with his trademark style. The announcement blog referred to it as a milestone as it was the first rollup from Milkomedia to be deployed outside of the Ethereum ecosystem and […]
Do the Cool Cats still have Blue Chip status? The collection fell on hard times lately, but so has any other NFT project out there. We’re in a bear market, after all. A Hollywood agency manages the Cool Cats project, they had the coolest exhibit in NFT NYC, and collaborated with TIME magazine in a weird NFT drop. Still, the collection’s floor price is down to levels not seen since the project’s conception. Related Reading: Blue Chip NFTs 101 – What’s The Secret Behind CloneX? Built For The Metaverse The Cool Cats started spreading good vibes in July 2021. It’s a PFP collection consisting of 9.999 unique cats assembled from various traits that formed 300K possibilities total. The ecosystem expanded in two major ways lately. They launched their secondary collection, the Cool Pets, and their own token, $MILK. The new coin is the blood of the gamified experience that the collection’s creators have been releasing. pic.twitter.com/GcpXtb5Vt8 — Mike Tyson (@MikeTyson) July 9, 2021 Speaking about those, the core team are: the smart contract programmer Tom Williamson, web developer Rob Mehew, creative director Evan Luza, and illustrator Colin Egan AKA The Cartoonist. The unofficial fifth member of the band is Mike Tyson. The eternal heavyweight champion changed his Twitter profile picture to a Cool Cats and that propelled the collection when it needed it the most. The Relationship Between Cool Cats And CAA The Cool Cats went Hollywood on March 2021. In a move unprecedented at the time, the creators signed with leading talent agency CAA. In a press release from the time, the partners explained the deal in detail: “Leading entertainment and sports agency Creative Artists Agency (CAA) has signed Cool Cats, producers of the widely known Cool Cats and Cool Pets NFT collections. In collaboration with the gamified NFT company, the agency will identify and create opportunities for Cool Cats characters across an array of areas, including licensing and merchandising, animated content, brand partnerships, live events, publishing, and more.” So, there’s serious money and interests behind the cats. Why are they fading away into the background, then? Is it just an effect of the bear market?

That means, they can produce commercial projects with their NFT’s images. Cool Cat owners also get access to the project’s Discord server, and priority for all of the exclusive Cool Cats events and mints. Holders can stack their NFTs and get yield in $MILK. Another benefit is access to Cooltopia, a project they define as “a gamified ecosystem built on interactivity and utility, community rewards and growth, collaboration with brands, and much more.” Another self-definition has Cooltopia as a “place where having a Cool Cats NFT grants you evolving access to games, tokens, community events, collaborations, and more.” Plus, there’s the Cool Pets side project. A reward to NFT holders and a way for newcomers to enter the ecosystem at a lower price point. The Cool Pets collection has 19,999 units. Every holder got a pet for free. The general public bought the other half. The Cool Pets first come as an egg image, that hatches and reveals the final NFT. The pets are divided into four elements: Fire, Water, Air, and Grass. The $MILK token The $MILK is an ERC20 token on the Ethereum and Polygon blockchains. It’s the oil that greases Cooltopia’s gamified economy. According to the documentation: “$MILK is the key to all sorts of functionality and fun in the Cool Cats ecosystem, from buying Battle or Housing chests to going on quests.” “$MILK is also how you’ll enhance and evolve your Cool Pets.” This one describes the NFTs staking-like mechanism: “Your Cool Cat is earning $MILK just by being cool (the $MILK claiming clock begins as soon as the contract is deployed), and that $MILK will accumulate over time.” Controversy And Suspicion There’s something strange going on with this project. Recently, the newly-appointed CEO stepped down after just three months. There was never a credible explanation. The collection just tweeted, “Chris Hassett has stepped down as CEO. We thank him and wish him the best moving forward.” Is there something rotten in the Cool Cats headquarters? Related Reading: Blue Chip NFTs 101: The World Of Women Collection, Including And Conquering And then there’s the price. At its height, in October 2021, the Cool Cats floor price was around 26 ETH. Almost a year later, the floor Cool Cats are trading for 2.9 ETH. That’s not all, the Cool Pets’ floor price is 0.18 ETH. Are those Blue Chip numbers? Even though we’re basically in the middle of a crypto winter, the collection seems to be falling off a cliff… Will the Cool Cats land on their feet?

A crypto venture capitalist warns that once momentum tips, market participants might be caught off guard by "some murder wicks" on the charts.
MuesliSwap, a decentralized exchange (DEX) on the Cardano network, has announced its decision to reimburse its users that have been affected by high slippage over the past year. This is in response to the recent questions faced by the protocol on its slippage feature. Slippage refers to the price difference between when a transaction order is submitted and when the transaction is executed by the market maker and confirmed on the blockchain. MuesliSwap Acknowledges Lack Of “Adequate Clarity” In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the team behind MuesliSwap admitted that it failed to provide “adequate clarity” on the slippage feature within its decentralized exchange. Users have had to pay high slippage due to the manner in which the protocol’s matchmaker was designed. Related Reading: Is Curve DAO (CRV) Price On Track To Reach Or Exceed $1 This Month? The MuesliSwap team explained in the post: Our decentralized matchmaker setup allowed each matchmaker to fill the limit order and choose whether to return the additional slippage amount or retain the difference at their discretion. MuesliSwap claims this difference has served as an incentive for the matchmakers since the beginning. To further clarify, the protocol’s team said this “supplementary matchmaker incentive” pushes the decentralized matchmaker to prioritize users’ orders during periods of high market volatility. However, it acknowledged that pushing this under the unclear term “slippage” may have confused new users. ?? Clarifying Slippage on MuesliSwap: We want to address confusion about advanced matchmaker slippage on our platform. Quick heads-up: This impacts only a handful of users so please be careful about what others state on Twitter. ?? 1??

(@MuesliSwapTeam) August 8, 2023 In a bid to rectify the situation, the MuesliSwap team disclosed that it would be refunding users who were affected by the high slippage on the protocol’s pools in the last 12 months. The team claims that the funds for users’ reimbursement will come from the “project funds”. Additionally, MuesliSwap said that a comprehensive analysis of all trades will be carried out to ensure fair refunds. “This process may take approximately 3 to 4 weeks as we gather and validate the necessary data, and implement the distribution code,” the team noted. MuesliSwap To Remedy The Situation? At the end of the post, MuesliSwap stated that swift action has been taken to fix the high slippage issue in the DEX order book.
