Aavegotchi Monthly Highlights #January

Hey frens,

January has been nothing short of exciting for the Aavegotchi fam. The first haunt of 10,000 portals is on track to arrive on Matic in the first half of February. In the meantime, let’s look back at our monthly highlights:

⚡January 4: Launch shifted to February on fee-less Matic Network

As you already know, we have decided to re-schedule the launch of Aavegotchi (originally planned for January 4th) and migrate to Matic due to unreasonably high gas fees. We have seen great support from the community and the timing turned out perfect. As of today, over 6 million GHST (worth over $3.8 million) have passed through the Matic bridge – and the main liquidity incentives haven’t even started yet!

Read more about how it happened in the 'Insane' ETH fees delay launch of Aavegotchi NFT game article by Cointelegraph. We will also be publishing a detailed explanation of why we chose Matic soon.

⚡January 21: AavegotchiDAO votes smash through quorum

The amount of votes for two Aavegotchi Improvement Proposals on Aragon reached double the required quorum. Each voting address received 250 XP per vote going toward all Aavegotchis summoned by that wallet during the February launch window.

Notably, the fees collected by AGIP-2 (0.3% trading fees for buying/selling on the bonding curve) have already reached more than 7000 DAI. The DAO Treasury is growing, frens!

⚡January 22: "The Gotchi Bridge" opens, offering seamless L2 value transfer

In preparation for the Aavegotchi launch, Pixelcraft CTO Nick Mudge devised a way to bridge Aave’s interest-bearing aTokens onto Matic Network. He also created a pool on QuickSwap – a clone of Uniswap with virtually no gas fees on Matic Network – to swap between USDC and maUSDC, the Matic version of aUSDC.

Liquidity from GHST poured into QuickSwap, reaching all-time high liquidity for the DEX, and causing the price of QUICK token (the governance token of Quickswap) to go from $1 to $27 in a few short weeks!
