Chainlink is the most recent demonstration of how token sales can offer incredible opportunities that are otherwise accessible only to VCs.

Now Crypto's most recent unicorn, Chainlink is an example of how token holders need to strain for developments that have a reasonable product-market fit, along with a token that rationally fits into the ecosystem. Chainlink is now one of the first tokenized projects to work side by side with major global companies and then turn that value into a token's price appreciation.

Basically anyone using AVA Labs (www.avalabs.org) can deploy new or existing blockchains on the AVA platform and leverage all the features AVA offers like higher transaction speed than VISA, scalability or immutability. You can deploy a blockchain with your own rules and requirements. To showcase the power of AVA, the team has created ‘Athereum’ a mix between Ethereum and AVA.

Additionally, the platform is also capable of tokenizing and deploying assets through AVAs smart assets primitive. One of the biggest problems with the tokenization of assets is legal compliance, something that AVA is aware of, that’s why the platform can obey special covenants.

According to AVA’s website:

‘AVA democratizes financial markets and bridges all blockchain platforms together into one interoperable ecosystem.

Build your own custom blockchains or digitize any assets with arbitrarily complex rulesets.’

LTO Network kicked off 2019 by defying the bear market and pushing a parabolic 1,000% rise in February.

1 year later, in February, LTO is back with another record-breaking rise on a Binance listing. At a fruit of the team's dedication, this listing came at no cost, and instead rewarded hodlers with a huge airdrop.

The Avalanche consensus mechanism was published in mid-2018 and was implemented by AVA labs. This new consensus mechanism aims to create a network without any leader as all nodes have equal status here.

AVA is led by Professor Emin Gün Sirer, one of the most esteemed cryptocurrency thinkers. AVA Labs is powered by this consensus protocol that can achieve high performance and scalability while solving some of the issues present in traditional consensus algorithms.

AVA has been able to demonstrate more than 5000 transactions per second with each transaction taking around 1-2 seconds to process and finalize.

 

The idea about tokenizing assets is fairly new but as the blockchain industry matures, the focus has shifted from ICO's or IEO's to Security Tokens. In essence, tokenizing an asset is basically using digital tokens to prove the ownership of the real asset. This provides a number of benefits that real assets do not offer.

 
AVA Labs (https://www.avalabs.org/) is the only platform that is decentralized and can operate permissioned subnetworks and assets on a public network. In fact, AVA offers a higher transaction speed than Visa and more than enough scalability for any project.



The tokenization of traditional assets provides a wide range of benefits like greater liquidity, 24/7 markets, lower transaction fees, improved compliance checks and more. Check AVA Labs for more information about the use-cases for the platform.

Nothing excites hodlers more than these two words.

Benefits of token burns are clear: lower token dilution and potential secondary market support. Burns should be provable, and ERC20 tokens do so by sending tokens to the 0x00 address.

It's interesting that some of the top 10 most burned tokens have burned more than the current project value.

More Token Burns

Masternodes remain an important part of dozens of cryptocurrencies. However, only a handful of masternode tokens have $200,000+ daily volume, and that's without removing washtraded volume. This highlights that most mn rewards are meaningless, even if the token ROI is high.

Above is a list of the few masternode tokens that have the liquidity to support the sale of mn rewards. Masternodes rewards are meaningless if there's no liquidity for the earned tokens.

:point_right: Were Masternodes just a Fad?
