We also announced that we were shortening the liquidity bootstrapping period from 90 days down to 15 days.Please note: After you transfer your STATE tokens from your ERC-20 wallet to the conversion vault, DVT tokens will be manually distributed on a first come, first served basis after the 15-day DVT token liquidity bootstrapping program has ended.For all the details, click <a href="https://parastate.substack.com/p/token-conversion-page-launch-and" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">here</a>.<h2 id="header-2">The Balancer Liquidity Bootstrapping Pool (LBP)</h2><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/srd-optimized-uploads/e199678ab4aa4d2e9041d188a1cc1129.png" />We are pleased to announce the DVT Token Balancer LBP contract (see contract address below) is live on Ethereum mainnet! It took a bit longer than anticipated as we needed CoinGecko to support the DVT token contract, but it’s there and swaps in the pool are quick and easy!&#x1f6d1; BEFORE PARTICIPATING, please carefullyverify the following official LBP pool address:<a href="https://app.balancer.fi/#/ethereum/pool/0xee4eb7cfbc210b0a6add47dd57308ab6106e6a4e000200000000000000000533" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://app.balancer.fi/#/ethereum/pool/0xee4eb7cfbc210b0a6add47dd57308ab6106e6a4e000200000000000000000533</a>As always, we remind users to exercise due diligence to avoid interacting with a fake pool address and to always be aware of SCAMMERS.You can read the full announcement about the $DVT LBP <a href="https://parastate.substack.com/p/dvt-token-balancer-lbp-launch" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">here</a>.Balancer Pool InfoLiquidity Bootstrapping Pools (LBPs) are pools that can dynamically change token weighting (e.g 1/99 to 99/1 for TokenA/TokenB). LBPs use<a href="https://docs.balancer.fi/reference/math/weighted-math.html" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> weighted math</a> with time-dependent weights. Pool owners choose the start and end weights and times, and have the power to pause swaps at their discretion.For the $DVT LBP, the initial settings are 80% $DVT and 20% WETH, and the initial spot price of $DVT is 10 times the VWAP of $STATE in March 2023 (around $0.018; see chart below), or $0.18 USD.<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/srd-optimized-uploads/99d2136b91fe464fa55577af116d189c.png" />The Balancer Pool will last for 15 days to achieve a reasonable market price for $DVT. All community members are welcomed and encouraged to join the Balancer Pool to add/withdraw stable liquidity and trade.After the 15-day period ends, the Balancer Pool liquidity will move to Uniswap V3 on Ethereum as the major marketplace for buying/selling/swapping $DVT.To attract users to contribute to the liquidity of the new $DVT token and join in growing the SafeStake ecosystem, community members and other users who reserve their stable LPs in the Balancer Pool will be rewarded $DVT pro-rata after the 15-day period.$DVT Auction Start Time: 9:30 UTC 1 May, 2023DVT Auction End Time: 9:30 UTC 16 May, 2023Please visit<a href="https://app.balancer.fi/#/ethereum/swap" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> the Balancer URL</a> listed below and search for the DVT token.<a href="https://parastate.substack.com/p/dvt-token-balancer-lbp-launch?r&#61;ia0v4&amp;utm_campaign&#61;post&amp;utm_medium&#61;web" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Read the full announcement on Substack.</a><h2 id="header-3">The SafeStake Zealy XP Program</h2><img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/srd-optimized-uploads/96a38533841c4f9488e3ed4c9cbcbe08.png" />To help grow our outstanding community, we launched a SafeStake Zealy XP program!This new incentive program on <a href="https://crew3.xyz/c/safestake/questboard" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Zealy</a> offers users several different quests they can complete to earn XP, including social media, content creation, incentivized testnet participation, event and activity participation, weekly task completion, and more!<a href="https://zealy.io/c/safestake/questboard" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Check out our Zealy Questboar Now!</a>Don’t miss the opportunity to complete tasks, contribute to the SafeStake community, and earn XP rewards while taking part in fun and exciting adventures!<h2 id="header-4">CALLING ALL TESTERS!!!

In addition to the Zealy program we highlighted above, we have been focusing our marketing efforts on the following:<ul><li>Blog Migration — We are currently in the process of migrating the content on our Medium blog to a WordPress blog that resides on the SafeStake website. This will contribute significantly to SEO for <a href="https://www.safestake.xyz/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://www.safestake.xyz</a> as our domain will begin receiving the ‘domain authority’ from our content rather than Medium.com.</li><li>Partnerships/Collaborations — We have established contacts with many Staking-as-a-Service (SaaS) providers and others players in the ETH staking space. We will continue to build these relationships and foster new ones as the development team solidifies the SafeStake product. Additionally, the opportunity is there and we are right on the cusp of being able to build into various staking ecosystems, opening the door for further collaboration. Our main intent here stays focused on helping centralized SaaS providers decentralize their node operations via the 8 ETH mini-pool ‘initiator’ depositor role.</li><li>AMAs — Our global team is working on setting up AMAs in different forums to expand our reach and attract more users to testnet. Please stay tuned for more announcements about AMAs coming soon!</li><li>Crypto Exchange Advertising — A comprehensive leaderboard banner advertisement program began on CoinGecko on 1 May 2023. The leaderboard ads are designed to drive more testers to Galileo Incentivized Testnet so the sample size needed to bring SafeStake to mainnet can be achieved.</li><li>IRL ETH Events — We believe a physical presence at ETH events around the world will significantly increase the awareness level for SafeStake. Currently, we are sponsoring and participating in <a href="https://www.ethcc.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">EthCC 6</a> and the <a href="https://www.stakingrewards.com/summit/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Staking Rewards Staking Summit</a>, while the upcoming events we are considering include <a href="https://ethereumargentina.org/en" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ETH Argentina</a> and <a href="https://blog.ethereum.org/2023/02/28/devcon-7-update" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Devcon 7</a>.</li></ul>About SafeStakeSafeStake is a trust-minimized middle layer that promotes decentralized ETH 2.0 staking. It is the first Distributed Validator Technology (DVT) liquid staking protocol for Ethereum written entirely in Rust. SafeStake utilizes the HotStuff consensus protocol and an advanced BLS Threshold Signature architecture to provide the highest levels of security and reliability, so Ethereum validators can maximize their staking rewards.<a href="https://www.safestake.xyz/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Website</a> | <a href="https://medium.com/ethereum-on-steroids" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Blog</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/SafeStakeDVT" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Twitter</a> | <a href="https://t.me/ParaState" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Telegram</a> | <a href="https://discord.com/invite/zFS3Mnfpwj" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Discord</a> | <a href="https://github.com/ParaState" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Github</a>
