@PhoenixTrades_ @EricBalchunas Going to add here. Typically this process takes months. Like up to 5 months in some examples but @EricBalchunas and I think this will be at least somewhat accelerated. #Bitcoin ETFs were at least 90 days. Will know more soon.

@BowTiedBrain Exactly! Why would you need 6 more hours to deny? They are crossing Ts and dotting Is











The "points-to-gold-ratio" on the Blast website has changed to about 107,000x vs the prior 36,000x. The new ratio makes a bit more sense than the last one. TLDR: Based on this ratio and my $6/gold estimate: 1,000,000 current points would be worth ~$56 if you have a 12x multiplier on. Disclaimer: I know nothing & my gold estimate is very rough and has changed frequently. It is based on (a) an 80% increase in gold in the next month (b) a $10bn FDV at launch (c) 6% of supply going to gold at TGE. These are all guesses based on our limited information. ------------------------------------- Long version: 1) Points reward capital on Blast. Gold rewards activity on Blast (interacting with projects/dapps). 2) Earning points is straight-forward: the more money you have on Blast for longer, the more points you get. Simple. 3) Points are going to get half the Blast-farmer airdrop. I guesstimate that will be 6% of total supply to points. 4) Multipliers complicate the math but they're not that very relevant. 5) What is the purpose of multipliers? They give Blast a tool to get users to try things Blast wants you to try. 6) Why aren't they relevant? Cause they are retroactive & extremely easy to earn, so everyone should get all the multipliers. And if you give them to everyone, you give them to no one. 7) So multipliers have zero impact? Well, multipliers will dilute the living hell out of anyone who is paying zero attention. It will allocate 96% of their points to everyone else. I imagine that group will be small. 8) My sense based on my wallet's gold-to-points ratio is that the 107,000x ratio they just gave us is about right. It would get us to about $56/1,000,000 points. 9) Two unknowns: A) does their ratio account for our current multipliers (I think so) and B) is it forward-looking for future gold and points inflation, since gold is inflating faster than points (I think so but not sure). 10) They have no control over ETH/USDB bridging on and off so there's no way it can be exact, even if gold & points inflation + multipliers are all dialed in. 11) Did this ratio change dilute my points? No. This was just the math catching up with itself. It had been way off. The only thing that would technically dilute your points would be a lot more ETH/USDB bridging to Blast or not doing the multipliers. there's also a whole treasure chest thing but I wont get into that cause this post is already too long and it doesn't matter for 99% of people.
