also the other two teams for the week one.
Well, our Galaxy has been helping working with different protocols, different projects,
Web3 projects to help them acquire new users, go to market, build their own loyalty programs,
just like Mental journey.
And we aim to make this program viral on the entire Web3 for the next four-week period.
And yeah, excited to have everyone here and hope everyone have a crazy four-week journey.
You know, very excited for, you know, Galaxy official integration with Mental.
I believe the integration, you know, supporting Mental was just right up in time.
It was done before the launch of Mental Moonshot itself and always happy to have, you know,
Galaxy's full support for ecosystem as well.
So yeah, glad to have you on this space, Charles.
Over to maybe Derek, Derek representing KTX.
A little bit about yourself as well as KTX as the project you're representing as well.

Sure thing.
Hello, everyone.
My name is Derek and I'm the growth lead here at KTX Finance.
So for those who are hearing about us for the first time,
KTX is a decentralized perpetual exchange that allows users to trade cryptocurrency with up to 100 times leverage.
And this is done through a single multi-asset liquidity pool backed by 50% of USDT and 50% of BTC, EVE and M&T.
And we are really excited to have this opportunity today to join Mental in the launch of Mental Moonshot.
And, you know, as one of the earlier projects to join the ecosystem,
we really want to show our support and be a part of this very exciting campaign, right?
Especially on the first week of Mental Moonshot.
We want to come up with guns blazing and welcome both new and existing Mental users through very exciting quests and attractive rewards.
And so, yeah, looking forward to our chat.
Good stuff, man.
Thanks, Derek.
Over to Yara.
Yara representing Agni.
A little bit about yourself as well as intro to the project you're representing.
Hello, everyone.
My name is Yara.
I'm the Agni Marketing Director.
Agni is an extraordinary DAX that redefines sports trading through its unique approach to liquidity by implementing concentrated liquidity and advanced AMM mechanism.
We are not just a DAX but a holistic platform that bridges companies' platforms and community engagement.
It's nice to meet everyone.
I'm excited to be part of today's podcast.
Thanks so much.
Thanks, Yara.
I appreciate that.
All right.
Now that we've all got the introductions done and dusted, we have gotten acquainted with our speakers for today's Mental Moonshot Week 1 session.
Let's dive right straight into what Mental Moonshot is about.
All right.
So Mental Moonshot is essentially our ecosystem campaign here.
If you are familiar with other ecosystem campaigns, the other ecosystems have done on Quest platforms as well.
It's very, very similar, actually.
So if you are, you know, kind of acquainted there and familiar with that, you would find yourself getting, you know, very easily getting started on our Mental Moonshot here as well.
Especially if you are already a veteran using Galaxy's very simple UI, UX itself.
All right.
But what is different here at Mental Moonshot as an ecosystem campaign, you know, featuring a couple of dApps for users to kind of explore and navigate around within that ecosystem itself.
Just to understand, you know, what are the, you know, dApps that and what are the activities that they can actually do within that ecosystem itself.
What's interesting and unique here with Mental Moonshot is that we are actually tapping on some of the existing initiatives that we have already done and it's live and it's ongoing for our mental community as well.
You will realize that there will be mentions of Mental Journey, right?
And there's this thing called the Mental Journey Soulbound Token, right?
What Mental Journey essentially is, is an incentive program that, you know, is our most direct way of identifying our power users as well as our strong protocols within our mental ecosystem.
Where, you know, the users after minting a soulbound token, we are able to actually index their activities on the back end and reward them with something called the MJ mouse.
And that is the Mental Journey mouse, right?
So this is the off-chain points that users would be able to accrue.
At the same time, protocols that have seen traction as well, we are ranking them based on transactions and PVL.
You can already see the leaderboard up on our Mental Journey landing page.
You know, the protocols would be able to accrue MJ mouse as well.
And we are currently in our season alpha, which represents our first season where we are constantly reiterating based in community as well as depth feedback.
And at the end of the season, which is tentatively set for 15 January 2024, we will actually, you know, take a snapshot and actually do the respective and following on distribution of the rewards down there.
For more instructions and information, do go on to our social, that would be 0xmental, or even head to our blog post to find out more about Mental Journey.
Right, and why I talk about Mental Journey is because as part of your task to complete Mental Moinshot here, we would require users to actually mint this Sogon token, which takes less than a minute, right?
Even just a few seconds, you are able to mint this Sogon token, which is a non-transferable token.
On top of that, we are also using, you know, tapping on another of our existing initiatives, which is Citizens of Mental PFP NFT.
This is basically like our Mental's inaugural PFP NFT within our ecosystem, where users can actually have a digital avatar representation of themselves as they journey across, you know, using the different mental depths itself.
What is interesting about this collection is that it is actually a dynamic, upgradable NFT collection.
And we have not yet released any add-on traits up till now, right?
So if you look at Mental Moonshot itself, Mental Moonshot is really one of the avenues where we will be distributing the Citizens of Mental NFT add-on traits.
And for the first time ever, users will be able to get their hands on this add-on trait.
We are looking at all these first, you know, all of these depths right here.
We are distributing very, very exciting and very attractive headgears that you can actually don and upgrade onto your base NFT itself.
And we will go into what Mental Moonshot essentially is and how it works, right?
Because that is really the core of the session today.
You know, after having talked about the citizens of Mental as well as the Mental journey,
now the spotlight really is Mental Moonshot here, which is our ecosystem campaign that is hosted with eight participating protocols within the Mental ecosystem hosted on Galaxy itself.
So what Mental Moonshot essentially is, is an opportunity for users to embark on four week-long missions and stand a chance to win what I earlier shared, right?
Mystery boxes where access to a total of 19,000 Citizens of Mental NFT add-on traits, as well as eight exciting protocol token reward pools away.
All right. And for this, you know, this first round of Mental Moonshot, we are very excited to have eight curated Moonshot protocols.
And in this first week, as we have kicked off the intro with, we are very happy to have KTX as well as Agni representing the first big depths where users can actually complete their quest on their respective product itself.
So Mental Moonshot is perfect for any Mental journey participant who wants to explore, you know, decentralized applications within Mental ecosystem, but has trouble deciding where to start, right?
What I find very good about, you know, using Quest to run all these ecosystem campaign is that they really spoon feed the users in terms of, okay, you know, which are the depths to go to, which are the missions and the actions to actually complete, right?
So this is one very good kind of thing for users as well.
And Mental Moonshot is also for our citizens of Mental NFT supporters and current holders looking to spruce up their unique NFT character, or if you are part of both demographics, that even better.
So just a quick run through of how Mental Moonshot works, right?
Essentially, we are running every four weeks, and every week Mental will introduce two protocols and review their set tasks for the week posted on Galaxy.
And these tasks will only be announced at the start of each Mental Moonshot week.
We are starting the Quest week on a Thursday to Thursday cadence.
So we literally just launched this and it went live yesterday on the 30th of November, 12pm UTC.
And it will run Thursday to Thursday every week, right?
Including a variety of activities, all the way from trading, staking, depositing, referrals, social media follows, and more, right?
Participants will need to complete every specified task per Moonshot protocol via Galaxy before the specific Mental Moonshot week ends.
to be eligible for a mystery box from that particular protocol, where they may win an exclusive Citizens of Mental NFT add-on trade.
So that is essentially how it works.
And just a few disclaimer as well, you know, as you might be familiar with any other ecosystem campaigns,
any past protocol activity outside of the stipulated weeks as stated, you know, within our blog posts or within our tweet itself will not be counted.
Please note that participants will have to begin and ensure that completion of all tasks are during the stipulated event period.
So as you know, we have been saying, you know, front and center and from the start, we are very true to be working with some of the Mental Ecosystem's biggest supporters to bring to you Mental Moonshot.
And this is our first week, so we're very excited for everyone to be just hopping on and exploring our debts and completing the quest and getting your add-on trades, right?
Which makes you eligible for the protocol token rewards as well.
So don't forget to complete all of the Moonshot protocol tasks during a scheduled week.
That will be outlined in each of the week itself.
We will talk a little bit more about how, you know, you can redeem the NFT add-on trades and how will that will make you eligible for the protocol token rewards in a little bit.
But for now, let's take a pause here on Mental Moonshot and kind of shift the direction to, you know, the depths as well as the galaxy that we are hosting on this AMA session itself.
So we do have a couple of questions that I will post on the floor.
And, you know, as always, we do like to keep this conversation two-way.
So if you have any kind of stuff to add on or to chime in as well, please feel free to do so.
Or if you would like, please raise your hand if there's something that you like as well.
So one of the questions that we have, you know, for our ecosystem partners here is that in terms of Mental Moonshot,
could you guys share what inspired your participation in the Mental Moonshot campaign and what you aim to achieve through it?
Perhaps we could start off again with Galaxy, Charles from Galaxy.
Maybe you can chime in a little bit here on, you know, Galaxy's integration with Mental and, you know, coming together to produce this Mental Moonshot itself.
Yeah, for sure. So I believe, you know, this is a really unique opportunity for, you know, all the Web3 pros, Web3 users and also, you know, the Web3 lovers who really want to,
it's a great opportunity for them to get started with Mental ecosystem because, you know, in the process when we work with Mental team, you know,
we've seen extremely professional, we've had extremely professional and smooth experience and also, you know, working with the projects who are participating.
And I think the unique part of this is both Galaxy and Mental team allocated a lot of resource and some of the incentives here, you know, to really present these opportunities to everyone.
who has never tried Mental before. And on the other hand, the lineup of the projects who are going to participate in this four week journey, it's quite interesting as well.
And most of them, you know, they're relatively new and also pretty unique to Mental ecosystem.
So I think this is also a great way to, it's also a great way for, for users who, if you have never tried these apps, you should really leverage this opportunity to engage with them.
And then you may find out, you know, you never know what's, what's going to happen, what's going to happen afterwards.
And, and it's, it just makes sense. And, and, and we'll, we'll also establish various of communication channels in every participation, participating projects, discord, as well as Mental and Galaxy's discord, the exclusive, the dedicated supporting line to make sure everyone has the best
experience during this four week journey. in this four week journey. So, um, yeah, that's a, that's pretty much from our end.
much from our end and i think you know if you go to galaxy now you can see mental moonshot it's also
on our menu top bar which is the max exposure we're offering as well to really amplify
every project who are participating in this
absolutely absolutely thanks thanks for the insights there as well as well as talking a little
bit about you know the motivation and inspiration behind uh you know working with us to kind of launch
the mental moonshot campaign here uh appreciate your inputs on that um you know as charles mentioned
you know what's interesting is really um you know having a way for users to actually explore the
mental ecosystem and we have very carefully curated um eight participating moonshot protocols here
right and and on on this session is itself we have the week one depth that is ktx and finance but you
know if if i didn't already mention as part of the eight protocols the eight protocols are as such we
have ktx acne in the first week and we have apex lando as well um fusionx and menu as well as izumi
and mintress so these are the least of eight participating protocols uh you can you really you
can already see all of this information on one of the tweet that we pushed out earlier today or late
last night um as the mental moonshot has went live uh at that point in time so super excited to you know
really uh get the users to try out all these dabs because they have very unique offerings as well
uh in and of themselves so i want to move on to you know on the same question i want to pass
the mic over to uh ktx right uh maybe uh derek uh could you go over you know what could you share
what inspired your participation in the moonshot protocol i mean moonshot uh mental moonshot campaign
and what do you aim to achieve out of it for sure i i think this is an easy one you know as as one of
the earlier projects to be building on mental you know ktx has been on the receiving end of tremendous
support from the mental team you know in terms of technical um operation and marketing support
and and we were really fortunate enough to have worked very closely with the team which is why
our journey on mental since our mainnet launch has been um quite smooth sailing and you know aligning
with um the team of mental moonshot as a celebration for for projects building on mental right we want to
use this opportunity to showcase what ktx has to offer right as as not just a trading platform but
also a place where customers know that their funds are secure and safe because we don't hold custody of
any of their assets and we want to allow users to try our platform and hopefully experience for
themselves you know the smooth user experience with the wide range of trading tools available
um coupled with you know the low fees and also take advantage of some of our ongoing um trading
incentives such as our trade and earn and our blind box rush campaigns ongoing now so yeah you know
true true um mental moonshot we are really looking forward to um welcoming the next wave of users to ktx
and choose us as their preferred uh prop decks to trade on right and and through this really simple quest
hosted by galaxy and mental moonshot um it really is a step-by-step um learning program learning process
of um how to navigate ktx and and uh unattractive rewards in in this in the meantime right so um sounds
like a really good deal to me yeah definitely definitely very happy to know that you know you guys are
equally as excited with us um you know to be part of this mental moonshot campaign uh definitely it's all
about you know introducing the users to your unique offerings as i've mentioned earlier
and it's always about you know that user acquisition portion uh and i know you guys you
know uh are and and similarly with acne as well um i know you guys are teams that are proud of
your and very confident of your product you know so once users you know get the chance to actually
try out um and be acquired onto your platform itself i think retention uh shouldn't be a problem as
well right it's always about acquiring as well as retention um acquiring is true you know what we're
doing here with mental moonshot as an ecosystem campaign and you know with a very good product um
you know the retention work definitely follow through as well so on the same question right um
last but not least um over to you uh over to you yara at acne what inspired your you guys
participation in moonshot and what do you guys aim to achieve through it as well
you know i think oh i think there might be a little bit of technical difficulties i think she
dropped off for a bit no no worries yep so let's see if we can get her back uh in the meantime uh you
know uh let's kind of move on first to to uh the next couple of pointers um well so
uh it's okay oh yeah uh over involvement in the in this campaign comes from our commitment to
building a lively and the involved community in decentralized finance we want more people to know
about agnes innovation innovative products and how we work together on mental this campaign helps us
connect with users and show them what makes our agni ecosystem special yeah that's pretty much it
all right thanks thanks yara happy to to have you back and and and not not uh having any
technical difficulties all right awesome yeah i i think i think definitely we can echo all of that from
from that's point of view as well uh you know moving on you know segueing to the next question and and
i'm pretty sure this is what uh the users in communities are super excited on right it's always
about what is the benefits for them as well and i've definitely you know hold on uh in terms of
revealing too much about the benefits in the intro uh when i kicked off the session just now i want you
know each of the respective depths to kind of talk about uh kind of share a little bit more right and
shed some lights on uh what are the various benefits because i know you guys have um you know we have
standardized benefits but it's unique to each depth uh in in certain ways as well right so what are
the various benefits that users can expect upon completing your debts quest that you have set up
uh in moonshot itself uh maybe we want to uh over back over to ktx uh derek
sure i i think um there there are there are many exciting rewards um you know for users to to look
forward to by just by participating in um really simple tasks um on a mental moonshot right so i think
firstly um users would would um stand a chance to win you know um like what uh sean mentioned earlier
right um basically mystery boxes that um may entail you know additional add-on traits from citizens of
mental and for ktx exclusively um we have chosen uh the dinosaur helmet if you guys haven't seen
uh how it looks like it's really cool i think you guys could could take a look uh on both mento's
uh blog or or ktx's uh socials right so um you know aside from just looking really cool right um
what's so special about these dinosaur helmets right so um the the the the the main benefit is that
holders of these dino helmets would be entitled to um an equal cut of the 1 million ktc reward token pool
provided by ktx finance and it will be shared um equally by all dino helmet winners right so um just
to just to give some numbers and and put things into perspective right so for for for example you
know ktx's um token reward pool is is one million tokens right one million ktc tokens and um if there
are um a total of three thousand dino helmet winners each of these winners will will will basically
earn an equal split to this pool which which comes down to about um 330 uh ktc tokens right so um these
are really attractive rewards to just by you know uh learning how to navigate and do some on-chain
tasks on ktx finance right and um you know in in addition and even if you are um not so lucky and
you didn't manage to you know open these uh add-on trades or dino helmets um in the in the boxes um
it's also it's also okay you'll be able to i guess accrue uh mental journey mouse which will i guess
also increase your allocation for the upcoming um season alpha airdrop right for mental journey which
is also quite substantial yeah so i think these are some of the very attractive rewards that users can
expect when they when they come on and try out ktx finance cool cool thanks for that derek uh same
question over to you uh yara at acne talk a little bit about the rewards that you guys have to back for
users oh i think completing the outline tasks in this campaign bring a variety of benefits to users
uh engaging with our data updates offers insights into the development while active participation in
our discount community and looks valuable information and the social connections additionally participating
in trading and providing the liquidity uh acne presents opportunities for users to earn tokens our
total token rewards per month to 3 million 3 million r-a-g-n-i please note uh acne is planning an
upcoming token generation event and will distribute r-a-g-n-i as their received token and a mental
moonshot this received tokens can be counted after the token generation events scheduled for the first quarter of
2024 yeah that's my answer all right awesome uh you do want to touch on yara you want to touch on that
the add-on trade that you guys have selected for your users
all right maybe no worries very quickly maybe i can just sum up in terms of like ktx and acne as well
in terms of you know when we were talking about the rewards itself uh just a very quick recap for ktx
you know derek has mentioned um you know if if you you participate in the quest and complete all the
tasks here you know how it works on galaxy is that upon completion of the tasks the stimulated tasks
you will be able to mint like uh and open this mystery box right and this mystery box will either
give you a nft add-on trade that will be the citizens of mental nft add-on trade which is a
kit here one of eight eight years here that is a total of uh never all of these are never before
seen uh and this is the first time that users will be able to get their hands on our citizens of mental
kit gear trade uh where katie apps have chosen uh the dinosaur helmet uh and acne has chosen the baseball
helmet right so you can see you know um super aesthetic uh accessories that they have chosen for the users
here um you can see it in our blog post you can see it in our tweets um as well as our respective
debts that have also announced uh this as well and at the same time you know uh just to kind of recap as
well uh for the users that have got on the trade uh when we actually release uh the upgrade feature
for your citizens of mental nft once users have upgraded their nft they will then be eligible to
receive the protocol token rewards so as katie apps and acne have uh discussed uh and share a little
bit more about their respective protocol token rewards uh do kind of keep your eyes peeled for that
uh at the same time i really like you know when derek mentioned as well you know thanks for the
highlight on that for you know for users that um other participations who did not manage to kind of
review uh and add-on trades after opening your mystery box uh don't worry you will walk away with 200
mj miles instead and this is on top of the regular mj miles that you would already be earning for
interacting with um the verified protocols in various activities up until the end of mental journey season
alpha right and um you know as we have mentioned in other uh uh amas as well uh with respect to mental
journey uh that season will end our season alpha will end on january 15 on 2024 um and you know we
will take a snapshot of the users based on their accrued mj miles and we would have uh mnt reward
distribution as part of that so very excited for for users to be kind of uh you know exploring the
different depths using galaxy and earning all these rewards as well all right going on to the next
question so you know before we talk about like you know again some of the key learnings uh for users
after participating in specific tasks right and understanding you know what they can do or what you
guys offer uh maybe let's take a step back and uh could you guys uh you know perhaps do you all want
to kind of run through uh the path uh as part of your quest uh that users have to compete uh maybe
starting off from from ktx derek do you want to just quickly run through um you know how you all were
thinking about uh the past that you have crafted for the users and what exactly do they have to do uh just
running through the list of quests there yeah sure thing so i think before i i go through um the
tasks involved in mental moonshot i think i would just briefly go through you know the the kind of
offerings that ktx um uh offers to to users right adding some context first so i think you know as a
dex we obviously cater largely to traders right and we equip them with the best trading tools you know
ui ux and and constant product improvements right so um you know we we hear the team here at ktx has
been you know constantly coming up with new product improvements you know with uh kind of like complex
other features where uh traders can uh execute their trades and set their take profit and stop losses
all in one click and and we also recently launched a multi-chart trading view for traders to to navigate
seamlessly between assets right so this is the trader side of things and we also cater to um
yield farmers or rather liquidity providers right and i think that this is a good time to introduce you
know ktx's liquidity pool in short um the krp pool right so it is essentially a pool of usdt btc
eve and mnt contributed by liquidity providers and and how it accrues value is by um um generating
revenue from from acting as a counterparty to our traders trades and also collecting the platform's
fees right so through this we are able to offer you know stable and high yields uh paid out in eve and
escrow ktc to reward these liquidity providers right and um i i brought these two key offerings of ktx because
um this adds a bit more color and context to um the the rationale behind these tasks that we want
users to do right for them to understand what ktx is all about right and and by participating in you know
these simple quests users would be um guided very closely to learn about uh these offerings right so
um we only we our task on galaxy for mental moonshot can be summarized quite succinctly into
uh basically five buckets right the first one being um um uh participants um hopefully they can
achieve a minimum trading volume of ten thousand us dollars right and then the second one would be to
stake 100 ktc for for a minimum of four days and the third one being uh depositing hundred dollars into
uh ktx's liquidity pool right for at least four days as well and then um you know we will be really great if
um uh you know participants can also refer and share to their friends um um the the the experience and
you know bring bring them bring their friends on to ktx as well right and the last task being um following
our socials right so through these five very simple quests um yeah we hope to you know uh let users fully
understand what ktx is all about and earn rewards from it cool cool really really awesome stuff yeah
yeah i think that really helps you know in terms of like providing some color uh as to you know why
the task was set up this way so that they could really use themselves could really you know dive straight
into the unique product offerings that ktx have um and get themselves you know familiarized with um you know
how they can actually uh maximize the usage um on ktx itself um over to you acne uh yara um maybe
talk a little bit similar to the question that pushed to ktx as well uh before you know going into
the different quests uh and tasks right that you have set up for your users um you know talk a little
bit about in relation to why uh it was set up in this way uh that was specific to you know acne's product
offering and then just a quick one through uh of the different tasks for users as well yara please
oh yeah uh our tasks are quite simple and involve the following uh such as follow follow acne twitter
follow mental twitter and return uh moonshot announcement and join acne discord and instagram
uh and uh total trading value excited 1 000 mt uh make treat make make trees on agnes platform ensuring
their total value research or excite 1000 mt and the last one is add liquidity on agni any tokens and any
amount help out by adding any tokens in any amount to agnes liquidity pool uh i think participating in these
tasks offer users look to rewards and uh particular experience in decentralized finance through these
activities users can gain insights into decentralized exchanges liquidity promotion mechanism emm mechanism
and the the overall complexity of our ecosystem operations of course the most significant aspect of
engaging in this campaign is the exceptional opportunity to acquire agni tokens or whether is nfts or agni tokens
both hold the potential to bring users more earning and airdrop opportunities in the future these tokens
will serve as rewards for users involvement in our ecosystem providing them with more changes and potential
benefits for their participation in their decentralized finance area
all right awesome i appreciate that yara um i think that definitely gives uh an overview of you know
the rationale for the quest as well and just a quick run through of the quest uh for the users on uh
listening to our spaces here today um you could check out the list of quests as well as a written
documentation on our blog post um you know that has been out as well for every week before the before
the quest week actually starts from thursday to thursday cadence we will be issuing out a blog uh
featuring you know that particular uh upcoming week uh that as well as you know review more information
about their specific reward as well as their respective uh uh tasks that they have set for users so that you
guys can actually prepare uh yourself for that so thanks for that so conscious of time as well i know
we've covered a lot about you know the mental moonshot what it means uh what users can do uh specifically
with ktx and agony as the first week of that uh as well as you know the rewards that you guys are are
providing for users as well as you know what are the unique offerings on your dap itself uh i want to
kind of take a step back right um and in terms of um you know a longer timeline in the grand scheme of
things um in line with the goals of the moonshot can uh mental moonshot itself um just want to hear
more about you know uh from your team's perspective right what what is uh your vision for the future of
your project um and its role in the broader mental ep system um anything that um is coming up in the
roadmap as well in the pipeline that you guys could probably uh piece right here um as uh and uh as
usual um you know maybe derek can can start from ktx sure thing i'm happy to do so um i think uh in the
spirit of um you know the mental moonshot campaign right of bringing together projects uh building in the
mental ecosystem um ktx also wants to embody this collaborative spirit right and constantly find
ways to um work closely with other projects in the ecosystem and i think a really good example would
be how you know ktx has integrated with soft protocol in the last month so soft is essentially an asset
management platform that provides new offerings through relatively complex d5 strategies so
um we we launched a delta neutral pool on solve um just i think three weeks ago to offer liquidity
providers um you know more sustainable high yield without any market volatility risk right and the
result of this this um this pool has been quite well received and we are already looking at more ways
we can work together between protocols and and on top of that ktx is also finalizing some collaborations
with uh other projects in in the ecosystem on on a smart contract level so um there are several
exciting collaborations that um ktfs users can look forward to and this will be our long-term vision
of how we want to continue building on mental right and and basically basically um keeping in mind how
you know a rising tide lifts our boats right and and we want to grow and thrive alongside mental's ecosystem
um sounds good sounds good sounds good thanks thanks derek for that yeah i i i really love it you
know i have to say i really love it when when i um you know uh come come to know of uh you know like
different depths partnership and collaboration within the mental ecosystem i think that's super
important and then what derek ended up with like uh rising tide leaves all boat um couldn't be any more
true um you know it's all about kind of supporting each other as well um right and and growing that
that bigger pipe for everyone right rather than then kind of uh uh not having any collaboration and
being very side with the product offering itself because more often than not a lot of the even just
talking about d5 protocols itself within mental ecosystem more often than not a lot of them have
very good reasons and very good incentives uh and synergies right to actually create this flywheel
effect uh for uh the products to be working together right and and they do have a very core and strong
offering uh that could be uh amplified uh by by working with others as well so very happy to always
witness uh the cross kind of collaboration uh across that within our mental ecosystem um similar question as
well uh yara for agni could you share a little bit about you know in line with the goals of uh
uh mental moonshot itself um you know taking a step back what what is your grander vision for the future
of uh agni at the project and its role uh in the broader mental ecosystem uh yeah uh operation for agni
extend beyond this campaign we aspire to become provincial contributors to the defy ecosystem fostering
innovation and inclusivity we envision agni as a user-centric decentralized exchange that campaigns
access ability security and the seamless experience through call cooperative efforts and ongoing
and ongoing developments we aim to establish ourselves as a significant player uh dividing the in
evolution of defy and solving as a bridge to a more decentralized and uh equitable finance future
lastly as i will uh mention before agni token reverse stand as a highlight of this campaign and a key
force for over upcoming market developments we encourage everyone to stay tuned for more updates and
the developments surrounding our agni token yeah thank you perfect perfect good stuff thanks for sharing
that yara um yeah i think i think that's definitely you know the main g's uh from you guys for the users to
uh look out for the r a g and i token uh and and also your upcoming uh uh tge that will happen uh uh beyond
that right so users can actually uh exchange their uh uh received token for for the native token itself
awesome uh thanks for that so so just want to kind of uh wrap up the session here as well i know we talk a
lot about uh uh month to moonshot itself you know uh as well as featuring you know what our debts could
could offer here um if if you guys you know listening uh aren't already you know getting your quest uh
started and completed on galaxy itself um um and exploring you know ktx and agni um you know what
what what else are you waiting for you know just get started straight away you know we have a week to
week cadence for every uh two debts right every two every every week itself we will feature only two
that and it will run across four weeks itself so for the first week we started yesterday uh and we
will end this uh first week on uh the coming thursday so it's thursday to thursday uh you have
until december 7th to actually complete quest for ktx and agni and actually to get yourself started
we have also kind of seamlessly um you know put together a step of instructions on our blog post and it's
actually a four-step process right to get you started here um if you aren't already familiar
with the mental ecosystem um you know the first thing that you want to do is that uh to breach or
deposit uh you know your funds into mental network itself uh if you already hold assets on mental
network and are registered uh mj user uh who have minted your mjsbt you may then skip this very first
step of bridging your funds in uh but if you have yet to do so uh you know we have uh a list of uh we
have our own uh official canon bridge itself uh where you can bridge in um as well as we have a list
of third party bridge that support mental as well um i'm very happy to to share these yesterday uh
stargate itself announced uh you know their bridge will uh is actually already supporting uh usdc and usdt
transfers uh to mental itself so um if you are looking for any bridge itself we have the lease
of third party bridge to bridge your funds in uh but don't forget right don't forget that you will
need uh mnt uh as the guest fee on mental network itself right so don't kind of perform the rookie
mistake uh the guest fee on mental network is mnt and you will require mnt uh as the guest fee to
perform transactions so keep that in mind so once you've bridged the funds in uh the second step would
be to mint your mjsbt right so uh we do have links that you know you should really click into once you
have funds pushed in and within just seconds you would be able to mint your soulbound token which
essentially is just your identity credential uh in the mental journey ecosystem here uh and once you
have done that you know head straight to the mental uh moonshot him a home page or directly straight
to galaxy itself and complete all uh the moonshot protocol quests that are our programs so with this
four step uh you could really get yourself started here uh on mental moonshot itself and you know
hope you guys get excited questing um you know with the first week and the following all the weeks as
well um you know we always like to kind of uh reserve time to address community questions as well
um and uh before i move on to community questions we do have some uh for mental for galaxy maybe for
uh kx and acne as well as i look through the list that we've previously compiled uh community itself
but i just want to take a posture as well uh to see regarding mental moonshot and you know just
talking about that offerings itself whether uh derek or yara uh has anything to to talk about first
or anything else uh i'm good on my end i think you have done a terrific job explaining the detail yeah
awesome uh just a quick check with you yara anything else you want to mention about
mental moonshot or any product offering first before we move on to the community questions
oh no i think i i think it's all my opinion all right awesome yep all right before i forget before
we actually officially move on to the community questions last but not least as well you know um you
know when we're talking about um you know the vision for future of your project and the role in
mental ecosystem as well uh definitely not forgetting uh charles from galaxy uh charles is still here
uh could you share a little bit i think he might might be dropped off already yeah right awesome so no
worries yep so so we will definitely be hearing a lot more from charles as well i know there as there
is another ama scheduled uh that might be coming up talking about galaxy itself but yeah we could know
more about galaxy from from there as well so let's move straight into the community questions um we have
some questions for uh at me so um this question is from vlad underscore web three uh that's vlad underscore
web three um i think you touched a little bit about on this uh yara uh but kind of to kind of touch on it again
uh the question here from vlad is you know what is the uniqueness of acne itself um and i think this
is second question is the plans for the future uh but maybe you don't have to touch in on to the plans for the future
but just to recap uh what is the uniqueness here uh for for acne itself and the defy that
yara do you want to take this question from the community oh yeah yeah yeah about acne acne's defy
uh oh wait a moment
oh actually uh acne is not just a dex but a holistic platform that bridges companies platforms and the
community engagement uh and uh and the acne is uh adapting to innovation especially in enhanced liquidity we
can we we continuously explore novel approach to improve liquidity in fact efficiency and quality
uh by integrating innovation uh by integrating innovation and mechanism with drive to achieve a high
capital in fact amm model this enable liquidity providers to manage funds more infected uh efficiently
and uh minimize potential liquidity losses uh additionally we work on ratifying the design of liquidity
pools to meet the goals to meet the involving needs for over users yeah that's my answer about certified
increase all right awesome thanks yara um yeah just moving very quickly the next one i think we have
is also um aziotrope 0212 hopefully i'm pronouncing your uh twitter handle correctly that's aziotrope 0212
and his question is uh does the moonshot campaign look at past transactions fully i think i can take
this one um so as mentioned earlier um you know past transactions do not count um do kind of uh for users
to actually be eligible do comply and adhere to uh the stipulated timeline uh that we have uh
kind of outlined in our blog posts and tweets as well so uh if you have any questions do refer to that we have
a clear timeline there that you can refer to so just make sure that you know your transactions are
are done and your tasks are completed well within the timeline itself one recommendation is you know
not to always leave it last minute uh because definitely you might uh possibly run into some
issues if you're last minute as well so um you know well within the timeline itself that would be the
recommendation uh do it early right do it early um as as um and and you can make sure that you know you
can have uh a share at getting the the mystery box and revealing uh uh the add-on traits right the
earlier you get the earlier you can share uh and find out if you actually want uh the add-on traits
itself i think i'll start to actually see a lot of users uh start to actually share uh the the nice
looking headgears that i got uh from ktx and agni uh being the dinosaur and the baseball helmet ones right
uh so yeah definitely looking forward to that so thanks uh aziotrope for the question
um another question um another question that we have from the community would be um from chas big
that is c-h-a-s-b-i-k uh gabe do you want to take this one um it's a little bit about they wanted to
know you know on a very high level uh why were you know these eight projects selected uh as uh you know
for for this round of mental moonshot otherwise i could take it you want to take it yeah sure i think the
general rationale is that they sort of serve very unique pieces in the in the ecosystem right so we
have a mixture of like dexes landing markets perpetual access just to give users like a feel of the
ecosystem i think we want to let users and guide users through this journey to explore different kind
of applications right not just uh the same type of d5 applications but more of like a mixture just to
get users acquainted with how these applications work and it's more like a learning process right
so for users coming into d5 for like the first time it provides like a cohesive experience for users to
really experience uh the different types of protocols so that's why we have a huge mixture of
like acne ktx mintress uh minu you have like meme coins lending protocols perpetual dexes uh amms and
yeah i think it just provides a fun experience uh especially uh also giving exposure to these
applications that have been in the metal ecosystem for a pretty long time now so yeah i think that's that's
the gist of it awesome awesome thanks i think it's summing up really nicely uh really you know that
that is the reason to kind of have a diverse uh mix of protocols um and yeah this is just you know uh
us getting started so do keep your eyes peeled for more uh you know exciting initiatives that we are
running uh beyond this as well um next i think we also have a question um from the community asking
about the head gear right the nft add-on trade um and this question is from hall 9001ai right so hall
9001ai asked what does the head gear uh you know due to the nft um and what's the value of it the
benefits of it uh so on and so forth so i could take this one very quickly so as we've mentioned
um you know users that have participated in the mental moonshot itself uh once upon completion of
the quest you would then be able to uh receive uh uh you then be able to mint a mystery box right
and upon opening the mystery box that will review whether you get the add-on trades or not otherwise
if you're not lucky enough uh it's a raffle if you're not lucky enough you will get uh additional uh
mj marks from that right but if you're lucky enough to get an add-on trade uh they will say that you
know uh you receive an add-on trades from there uh and then what happens is that um we will be
actually releasing an upgrade feature really soon for our citizens of mental nft holders where you
guys will get to you know upgrade your nft so if you hold an nft um and an add-on trade you would
then be able to upgrade your nft um and for those you know groups of people that successfully upgraded
the nfts we would then take a snapshot once uh the mental moonshot campaign uh as an entirety fully
ends and then once we take the snapshot then uh the follow-on distribution of uh the respective
protocol token rewards would then uh follow on suit from there so this is what you can expect as an
overall timeline uh and what that add-on trades will do as well uh so that is the benefits of the
heat gear itself to the nft you can actually attach it on your uh nft uh as a way of upgrading so in
terms of cosmetic and aesthetic wise you can change the way of how your nft looks uh on top of that once
you have upgraded the nft you would then be eligible to receive the protocol token rewards so i hope that's
clear for you guys and i hope you answer your question so any other information uh you know we have
written very comprehensive uh blog posts as well i believe you would be able to find a lot more
information down there as well uh yeah so i believe we have covered most of the community's question
uh burning ones at least and the most important ones here that i've run through uh just give me
one step making sure they've covered everything yeah so that's probably the gist of it yeah um i think
i see charles back on on the on the speaker uh session after the speaker slot again um you know just very
quickly charles uh want to give you some time here uh to kind of talk about uh to wrap it up right and
to talk about your vision for the future of your project and galaxy's role in the mental ecosystem
uh just to end it off yeah sorry for the disconnecting uh yeah so the idea is you know we we really want to
uh become uh we're friends with every projects we are um the playgrounds for every protocol as well you know so
with these partnerships we already uh has everything integrated with mental network on galaxy platform
which means you know this is a mental journey and the moonshot uh campaign series it's just the start
but in the future any mental uh projects builders who are looking to you know build a community using
galaxies uh infrastructure they can uh feel free to do so and it's permissionless uh anyone can apply
um but yeah that's uh very excited to kick this off uh with this uh moonshot uh program and then um
very excited to see uh everyone uh really uh yeah i i achieved their goal um so so that's all for me
and thanks right all right this is a really good amm all right thanks charles appreciate it appreciate
it uh for kind of wrapping up there for galaxy as well and appreciate the kind words um yeah so just
want to make sure we cover everything uh before we officially end of the session um gabe uh or jay
itself uh from from the mental team kind of uh site uh do we have anything to announce in terms of
following up or upcoming events anything from your site gabe
or maybe jay
just want to make sure we cover everything here
