1/ Today, we’re kicking off the Giant Unified Market initiative - our key effort to bring all assets into a single atomic market, accessible by everyone in the world with a fraction of a cent.
Only on Solana, powered by Jupiter, enabled by the best partners in crypto.
Vote on CWG’s Budget Proposal
The vote to fund the first Jupiter Working Group is live! This vote is crucial in setting a precedent to fund working groups to drive the DAO’s initiatives forward.
The CWG has spent a week in community discussions, and has presented their 2024 budget proposal to the DAO.
JUP stakers can now vote on funding the CWG, who plays a key role in building out DAO processes and facilitating the community’s role in LFG selection, token-list, grants program, and other community-led initiatives..

This week, we had crucial discussions across Discord, Jupiter’s Research Forum, the planetary call, and the community townhall where Meow interviewed each CWG member and took questions from the chat.
These discussions culminated in a final proposal that the CWG presented.

As we get closer to launch for Wheel of Fate, the new https://t.co/1JfjCauLiG with Bazaar and Elysium, and [redacted], we wanted to clarify a few things about the pricing structure for WOF and Arkade in general.
Finding the proper pricing model with a dynamic base is extremely important for adoption. The decision that we have come to is that we will use a range model that will be reviewed weekly. The initial range that we will implement is SOL being between $150 - $300 USD.
Pricing for Wheel of Fate & Arkade Tokens upon launch will be as follows:
Single Token Price: .00425 SOL
25-Pack Token Price: .088 SOL
Microtransaction Fee: .00088
*This will apply to every single game played regardless of the token being used.
Tokens will be available for purchase on Bazaar and within the game itself.
Token Cost per Game will be:
The Syndicate Holders: 1 Token
The Hallowed Holders: 2 Tokens
Non-Holders: 3 Tokens
$FLTH Fridays will have their own set of rules. We will announce those closer to those beginning.
Beginning on either May 1 or June 1 we will introduce a monthly pass system. Monthly passes will be limited in quantity. Currently the plan for this is as follows:
150 Monthly Passes available for purchase using SOL
150 Monthly Passes available via Onyx for $FLTH
Lastly, there will be power-ups introduced. The current plan for these is to launch them in June. These will be offered in open-editions via Magic Eden. They will be timed drops and a quantity will be held back for distribution via Onyx for $FLTH.
We will definitely get into more detail on all of this. Just wanted to share now so that you all have an idea of what the gaming world of Liberty Square will look like.
We are incredibly excited with where we are currently and eternally grateful for the patience.
Shoutout to all of the Beta Testers for their time and input. It’s been invaluable.

$FLTH fridays
SAGA.
Holder ARKD drops.
That's just April.
the signs are all there. guess it's time to FAAFO if people really don't care about Solana NFT Projects.

Liberty Square has never been a PFP project. It was always constructed differently. Autonomous thinking has always led the way.
There isn't a day that goes by that we are not extremely proud of the course we have stayed true to. We will continue to stay true to that and you will decide to ride with us or not.
The north star has always been pushing beyond the groupthink mentality and following the path that presents itself. There are times that even we didn't realize where that path would lead.
The future has always been multichain and it's never been as apparent as it is today.
The next chapter will fuck you up. Three shots, three kills.
It's that obvious.

$FLTH Fridays will most likely begin on April 12 or April 19.
What does this mean?
On these days, you will only be able to play WOF with special tokens that can only be purchased using $FLTH.
On these days, the in-game prizes will be loaded up differently and the Top Daily Prize will be special.
It's been a long time coming to reward holders of $FLTH. This is merely step one.
frenz,
we will be preloading the prize pools for the public beta period of Wheel of Fate.
our current plan is for this to go live on 3/15. this graphic shows the distributions that will occur.
there are currently 93k +/- "free" play tokens in circulation and this will increase substantially once we begin our airdrops.
should we need to extend this pre-load period, we will.
The unopened @solanamobile SAGA will be the grand prize in the month of April for the top monthly finisher. the Apple Vision Pro will move to May!

The Sequel is coming soon.
one thing we have never lacked internally is confidence in what we are driving towards. it will happen and it will be loud and you will either understand or learn the very definition of regret.
this is actually a guarantee.

Yesterday was amazing on so many levels.
Let's talk about "Embers" as a business model.
Buckle in, this is a long one. If you care about what we are doing, or comics in general, we hope you read it thoroughly.
The comics/graphic novel industry has to change. For too long, industry giants have controlled the business narrative for creators. It is probably time for that change, and we are happy to be a driving force in it - along with many others.
Over 1400 "Embers" books have been minted in a 24-hour span. These books are 30-pages all in and were minted at .15 SOL. This is an extremely important point and a decision that was thought about for a great deal of time. This is a fair-market value for a book of this size. We also have the opportunity to create and add value at our leisure. Sure beats a shoebox in the closet...
The general practice for the major publishers has been, for quite some time, to find and develop a story alongside the creator of that story. When they do so, the contractual obligations & terms for the creator(s) varies depending on many factors.
In most instances, the rights to that property are turned over to the publisher for a period of time that is often the entire life of the creator plus some years. Not always, but most of the time.
Further, the publisher has the rights to the property in every format that exists AND those that don't exist yet. That's wild.
What we have proven, in a small yet scalable model, is that creators have another option. In this new model, creators can spend time building a community & loyal audience through any number of free marketing platforms and then sell their creation in a single - and NEW- format to that audience. This new format offers many improvements over the former digital formats. Staking, gamification, trading, bartering, true digital ownership, and more come to mind. That is a paradigm shift when it comes to loyalty programs and Rewardonomics.
Further, we as the creator retain 100% control of the works and still have the option to release physically, develop the IP with a studio/production house, release expanded versions, and anything else we can think of. That's such a threat to the status quo and we plan on exploring that to the ends of the earth.
We launched with an independent 3rd-party platform as an independent publisher. What @dreaderapp has built is a very smooth and clean platform that is special. That can't go unrecognized. It's disruptive technology in its' nature and it's really smart. 30% +/- of the audience were not holders of our assets. Our hunch is that these individuals were simply fans of the medium. This is what dReader has been building with their community and it's very special.
The monetized side of this is that about $20k +/- in net revenue will flow into Liberty Command with this book. That is transformative for most independent creators. Thank you for the support.
We will continue this exploration. Liberty Square Originz: Issue II "The End of the Beginning" will be released in April or May. It will follow the same guiding principles when it comes to cost and supply. We will take our collective learnings and apply them to the launch so that we can continue to build a case for our web2 frenz that have suddenly become very interested in @solana comics.
@toly once asked "Wen Hellboy?" Our response to that will arrive in Issue II.

My wife just gave me a weird look and said, " I dont think i can see the corner of your mouth unless I look over on the other side of your head. What are you smiling so HARD at?!" 🤣This book means the world to me. Huge thanks to everybody who's picked this up❤️ Let's GO

Final Pre-JUP Reflections
First off, we have no idea what is going to happen.
We have chosen to take a pragmatic yet utopian approach, focused on maximum transparency, zero manipulation of liquidity, zero supply squeeze, simulataneous participation, open market price discovery and for team to get the capital they need in the most long term beneficial way possible.
This open and non controlled approach obviously leaves a lot of room of chaos and unknowns, but i strongly believe that these dynamics are the right, most retail friendly, best way to build a community, and long term advantangeous to the project in the long run.
It is not just for JUP, we wanted to create a new meta for launching tokens, and we know that if we do not do this for JUP, we will lose our chance to do this forever.
Therefore, embarking on this arduous and extremely intense process to not just launch a token, but build an entire new product line and new launch meta is not a choice, it is a neccessity.
Most people I know criticized us (some with dumping intentions, some with constructive intentions) at several points along this entire journey for "overcomplicating" it vs taking more tried and tested methods.
Even at this point, 3/2 hours before launch, I have so many questions. Is the current price curve (.4, .7, 1.6) designed well? Is there enough buy demand for an immediate open supply? Will bot mitigation approaches be enough? Will the infra hold up, from regular servers to rpcs to the network? How will the absolutely chaotic interactions between all the gazilion users and markets play out on chain?
Ultimately, the question is this - would the world end up judging us, as many have - for fumbling the easiest bag in the world when we did not just leverage on the massive Solana hype in december to either do a fundraise or simple airdrop and cex launch?
I really dunno, and if we do not do well today, they will certainly be right to judge us as such.
But if we did that, we would not be living true to our ethos as experimenters, advancing the decentralized meta, and in general trying to do the best thing possible despite massive pressure to do the easy thing.
We got to where we are by experimenting, pushing the limits of what is possible, and doing what is correct despite massive consensus.
And we will enter this new phase the exact same way.
While listening to @LibertySquareHQ explain the different moving parts of the ecosystem, I thought I could try to make a medium-long tweet about it. If you can’t read all this, then please don’t complain you can never find info about LS.
I see the ecosystem as 4 different categories that ties together.
1- The Lore
2- The Art
3- The Fungible assets
4- The games
