POOLED THORNode FAQs.Updated 28 November 2024. Here are the common questions I get from Bond Providers (BPs) with regards to pooled THORNodes. 1) How does bonding work? .As the Node Operator (NO), I whitelist your BP address & you bond your $RUNE to the THORNode that I manage.

This means $BASE chain has been added to @THORChain β‘οΈ. Churn comes next, L1 vaults get created, then we churn again & get the router involved!. Ignore the lending FUD, nothing has changed here, what has changed is TC now services the $BASE ecosystem. $RUNE.

80% indicating 'Yes' to 5% burn. This is clearly something that the community wants. I don't agree with most of the false dichotomies or justifications in the comments but I am a Tard of the people. I will honour the decisive win for 5% burn. Burn baby burn π₯π₯π₯.

This is noise. 1. OGs are allowed to sell (just like everyone). 2. Nodes can leave (I think you're referring to the 3 that had to leave & I now run for them). I think that people are scared because of some public dialogue between TC core devs and 9R. As always, zoom out.

I agree with @TheRuneRanger . The downside (from $21 at ATH and more fairly from ~$13) to $1 has been rough. #Savers found perfect market fit. #StreamingSwaps have made @THORChain more competitive than CEX. #Lending coming to make $RUNE deflationary. The tide has turned π β‘οΈ.
$RUNE is insanely reflexive, to the upside and unfortunately, to the downside. After 2+ years of downside, get your body prepared for the upside. Higher $RUNE price, deeper pool liquidity, larger APY for LPs and savers and so on and so forth. UP.
