Initia 🪢 @initia

INITIATE S1 brought together builders across AI, DeFi, gaming, and consumer apps. @0xJESSIE_ spoke to a few builders to find out what happens when you hand them an appchain stack with auto-signing, no gas friction, and a bridge to anywhere ↓

The hackathon might be over, but building on Initia is only heating up.

I started accumulating Kami NFTs again.🧵 For quite a long there wasn't any update about my @kamigotchiworld strategy. Goal is to get at least 150 Kamis, why? 1. ~2k%+ APR on @initia VIP. Community convinced @0xl3th3 to bribe on @CabalFDN. That means Kamigotchi players now get ~$5-8K in $INIT rewards every 2 weeks. Note: Tokens are locked/vested for 1 year. I personally vest them (and unlock 1/26 every epoch = 2 weeks). Kamis are extremely cheap, there is almost no competition in VIP farming - 36 accounts last week. My current setup: 100 Kami NFTs at $4/each = $400 total They generate 200k VIPP/day - max ~3M VIPP per cycle Gas: $3/day = $42 per 2 weeks Last epoch benchmark: 900k burnt VIPP = 1,730 $INIT = ~$104 (yes, at current $INIT prices after market dump ~$0.06 USD) Scale that to my 3M VIPP (max I can get with 100 kamis in 14 days): ~5,766 $INIT = ~$347 gross Minus gas: ~$305 net every 2 weeks APR: Annualized: Gross APR: ~2,250% Net APR (after gas): ~1,980% Considering current $INIT price and pool size - both can move. 2. Mint-out is close. ~3,000 Kami left to mint. Once supply is gone, the team has signaled a new economic model drops (I guess somehow connected with @asph0d37). I have no idea what it is - but at $4/NFT, I will take that risk. The downside is priced in. I'm playing for supply shock and whatever comes after. NFA. Assumes current $INIT price and pool size - both can move.

Kami is a great case study for what Initia is built for. Apps that own their stack, capture value, and turn real usage into real revenue. In just a year and with essentially no marketing spend, @kamigotchiworld is one of the top revenue-generating chains. Build with Initia.

the appchain we launched with 4 devs, $1.3m in funding and no marketing budget at all is currently generating more revenue than multiple L1s that have raised hundreds of millions in funding btw
