Longest tweet you've read, and there's no TLDR. Our community has been wondering, "Where are our founders? Why has Proxies gone so silent?" Well, here they are, check the quoted tweet! After fulfilling the entire Proxies roadmap, the focus shifted towards advancing Cardano tech - a true "Cyberiada hive" thing (for those who know). As @cotruta_tudor often says, pushing for Cardano’s technological evolution is the most impactful mission we can pursue. And that’s exactly what’s happening behind the scenes. Yes, it seems Proxies have been left dormant. While our core community is still alive on Discord - some checking in, some dripping memecoins, and others showing up for the daily GM - it’s clear that this isn’t the level of activity we all wish for. We understand that many projects have had to pause or discontinue due to the challenges of operating in a non-feasible time of the ecosystem. But rest assured, we are not discontinuing. The inactivity of the team is due to the intense focus required for our funded tech projects through Catalyst. These projects demand extensive research, deep learning, and complete dedication. Support them if you can. As for the future of Proxies_NFT, we can’t say for certain just yet. But one thing is clear: the project will rise again, in a way or another. Over the past 1.5 years, the founder’s vision, professionalism and technical capacity have grown exponentially. Instead of launching another collection of art NFTs, we conceived the idea of an RWA (Real-World Asset) project, backed by physical bottles of wine. Although we haven’t publicly launched the RWA Wine project yet due to market conditions, it is fully developed and ready, awaiting the right moment. The nature of this RWA project - backed by real wine and expensively built tech - means it cannot operate like a typical art or meme NFT project with great airdrops to older holders. It needs a different approach. Moreover, the RWA Wine project cannot be marketed from this account for a few reasons: - The Twitter algorithm doesn’t favor older, less popular accounts. Our tweets get limited engagement, making it challenging to promote thousands of bottles or explain the new tech to the small number of active followers. - Many influencers and key figures in the Cardano community may dismiss our marketing efforts, viewing this as a project that was sold at ± 85 ADA and now sits at a 32 ADA floor price. Despite these challenges, we do want to reward our loyal holders who have read this sincere message. We will use an algorithm with multiple data points to determine rewards. One of these inputs is simple: "Have you read this message and commented to prove you’re a holder?" To prove it, comment with your handle or the address holding your Proxies NFTs, $PROXIE, and $PROXIE- $ADA LPs from liquidity provision on Minswap or Muesliswap. We’ll pin this message for a long time and unpin it right before launching the RWA Wine project — that’s how you’ll know your data has been recorded for rewards. We’ll also run a similar process on Discord, so be sure to check announcements and complete the tasks there too. It will be part of the rewards algorithm. That’s it, buried here for the true followers. 🙂 Now, let’s talk about a few things that might interest you, whether you’re a long-time member or new to the community. Proxies still hold significant value: Remember the Ordinals we minted in March 2023? They may not be in the first 10K, 100K, or even 1 million, but they hover around the 1,050,000 mark. From a historical standpoint, that’s not bad. The project still holds about 20 of these, and they could be useful down the road. If you have any ideas, let us know. In the meantime, check the listings on Magic Eden currently FP priced at around $850: The potential for Proxies to become a major player again rests on a few pillars: - The art, which is detailed and conceptual, will never lose its value. Also, it began minting during the first year of "CNFTs," as we called them back then. - The founder’s growing capacity. With the advancements made, there’s a strong likelihood of giving back. Pay attention to the following pieces of the rewards algorithm and consider holding onto your Proxies. - The (unlikely, but possible) revival of specific hives by the community. Here is a recap: Cyberiada hive = Cardano & Blockchain tech Moneda = Financial education & degen hustle Gaya = Ecology movement Destiny = Mental and Physical health Easelle = Art On that optimistic note, we thank you for being here and reading this. We’ll see you around!

Working with @cotruta_tudor is like working with an advanced Cardano-focused AI. He has no "stop" button and constantly generates new ideas. You know what's more weird? $PROXIE community is the same as Tudor. (jk, love you guys for that. With love, CM)

Cardano makes it easier to get married

@TheFairies_ Hellllllloooooooooo there

@NMumphreak We will. We shall seek the spot and wait for the moment when he's weak.

2024: What a year, huh? If we were a Netflix show, this season would’ve been “Projects, work and barely any sleep.” And guess what? You’ve been our star cast - cheering us on, giving us the energy that kept us going, and making our projects possible. Seriously, none of this happens without you. Let’s recap: This year, we tackled big stuff through both Proxies and Blazar Labs: micropayments? Boom. Wine supply chain transparency? Double boom. Medical records on the blockchain? Oh yeah, we’re doing that too. Tokenized fine wine collection? QUADRUPLE KABOOM! And while we were busy revolutionizing industries, you were there hyping us up. You’re the real MVPs, folks. But wait, there’s more! We’re taking a short pause. Not because we don’t love you - but because we need a short power nap. Think of it like your laptop updates: annoying but totally necessary to avoid glitches. We’re shutting down for maintenance, and by “maintenance,” we mean a tiny holiday. When we’re back in 2025? Boom. World domination(We're joking....or not?😈) Here’s the TL;DR: We love you. We’re beyond grateful. And after we recharge our human batteries, everything's going to be bigger, bolder, and even more innovative than ever. Thank you for being the coolest community ever! Sincerely, ProxiesNFT team

Grok knows about the struggles of Cardano's fight against the bear....

The choice that would ruin anyone. (There's only one right choice)

@corgi408 Of course! It's actually the most loved beverage during Christmas/New Year season. We even have it served in public during christmas fair.

From the ancient humble beginnings to the opulent halls of medieval kings, wine has been a symbol of celebration, faith, and community. Today, it graces Christmas tables as a testament to love and connection. Whether you’re sipping a spicy mulled wine by the fire or exploring tokenized wine investments, every glass is a nod to history and a toast to the future. So, $PROXIE community, enjoy your wine and Christmas!

@NMumphreak You know what? We love you, man!💗

GM $PROXIE Kings & Queens! Christmas is upon us which means that it's time to remind you that Tudor is not Santa's celtic cousin just because he has a beard. Oh, and... This is not the last Christmas post. So keep an eye out, Cardano.
