The Roadmap is available on Hashbon’s GitBook — the progress of its implementation can be tracked there in the real time!

Let’s move further into details — what is waiting all of us onboard?

• HASH token on Polygon

• Farming on Hashbon Rocket

• Decentralized network of arbiters on Hashbon Rocket

It is important to understand that this edition can not be final — things and obstacles do not always match our expectations and there will be hurdles along the way, but we are fast to adapt and continue to innovate on the path of our ambitions and Hashbon Community’s inputs.

We are open to all ideas, comments and valid criticism from members of crypto communities, being always in the search for demanded and convenient solutions to improve our products and reinvent finance.

I myself was once a victim until I managed to realize that this person was asking me for some info and specific details about my wallet which he shouldn’t ask for. So immediately I blocked and reported him, but I know for a fact that perhaps others have fallen in the trap — perhaps lost their wallets, and then perhaps called the program, which they joined, a Ponzi when they themselves are to blame for being irresponsible.

Always protect yourselves from hackers and people who only want to do harm online. There are scammers everywhere, but those who hide behind a screen are very smart sending mails and messages just waiting for a chance to pounce. And once you make a mistake you’re done. So I recommend to always be on the lookout for any strange behavior online — behaviors such as asking questions which don’t make sense; asking for your wallet’s seed phrase for example; or direct messages of people you might not know. Very rarely you get a message — especially from the owner of a group or program unless you got some relationship online with them first, but still no sharing of personal info such as seed phrases or anything like this should happen at all.

Be aware also of phishing sites pretending to be official sites you want to log into and like this grabbing your credentials to later log in themselves and stealing anything of value you might have like credit card details you may have stored or what have you!

I also read some other person who had his wallet intervened because of his own fault, but still had the ability to criticize the program he had joined. It’s amazing what some people do, but I can also understand their frustration.

The moral of the story is that people who have had bad experiences in the past with any crypto or other related programs for that matter, be it their fault or not, will always degrade the program they joined before admitting it was there fault in the first place!

Anyway, one good program I did mention earlier in this article is the DRIP Network and what is DRIP you may ask, well DRIP is…

DRIP is a DeFi project that can provide passive income. You purchase your DRIP and deposit it into the faucet, then the faucet pays you 1% per day every single day in new DRIP tokens. You can choose to Hydrate (compound) your daily 1% back into your deposit so you receive more tomorrow, or you can choose to claim your earnings back out, it is up to you!

Find Out More Below!

How to Get Started?

Go to https://drip.community/fountain, and exchange BNB for DRIP

Take my own Buddy id:

0x7CE602248Edea48C398EB3122c68f8018e371F33

Go to the Faucet, and enter a Buddy address in the Referral section. Consider adding me within the Cryptozoa team which has a wonderful team of players more than ready to help.

My Buddy id:

0x7CE602248Edea48C398EB3122c68f8018e371F33

Deposit at least 1.12 DRIP (Ensure you have 0.05–0.1 BNB for transaction fees.)

You’re set up on DRIP. Get ready to receive 1% daily! But, do come back regularly to hit that hydrate/recompound button!

You can purchase DRIP tokens and join the project by going to the official https://drip.community/ network. Players can use the Swap tab to trade BNB for the corresponding amount of DRIP. You can also purchase DRIP on DEXs like Pancakeswap, but due to the 10% it’s best to do it on the project website.

Not only do you save on the tax, but it also has the highest amount of liquidity and the lowest slippage available.

Some people don’t have anything new happen during that time, some have families, meet their soul mates, skydive, lose loved ones… I just want to tell you my story of how the past 9 months have changed my life.

I have been familiar with the Waves ecosystem since 2019. It seemed simple and clear to me, and what a price for commissions! Being subscribed to a news channel, I saw the news about the sold “picture” of a duck for 1 million dollars! I couldn’t believe my eyes, I wondered: who would be willing to pay $1 million for a picture? Looking back now, I realize that many people… The most important steps come into our lives unnoticed. That’s how and then I was introduced to one of the best NFT-games of the new decade — Waves Ducks!

The Ducks broke into the NFT-space very timely, treading the first steps in the development of the NFT-industry in Russia. Backed by a strong marketing campaign in the form of rounds and generous handouts of “blue eggs,” the ducks were gaining ground of their own in people’s hearts, and in mine were gradually coming to the forefront.

The ducks didn’t come along right away. First there was faith. The backbone of the community at the very beginning of the project consisted of people who were somehow familiar with the Waves ecosystem. Confidence in the team and openness of the developers — two fundamental factors, thanks to which during the 9 months of the project a strong and friendly community emerged, ready to help and explain all the subtleties of the game to newcomers.

The EGGs price grew by leaps and bounds, conquering new heights, and the lucky winners of the rounds were already getting ready to create their own farms.

I was doing well. The rounds brought generous rewards. Having some kind of capital for a student is very important; it builds self-esteem and distinguishes you from your peers. While everyone was busy turning in their debts, I puzzled over how to come up with a meme that would be funnier than the rest. The start of the duck marketing campaign is probably the best I’ve seen in my 23 years.

The long-awaited day. The launch of the incubator. We were all excited at the time. Even though the “egg” token was already worth a decent amount of money at the time, many players saved their EGGs, preferring to start building their duck empire.

The duck was supposed to cost 10 EGGs per one. But just before the launch, the price was reduced by a factor of 10. Tricky move! The accumulated tokens went into business, the hatchery overheated, unable to produce new batches of Elons and Satoshi. What was I counting on back then? What did I expect to get? I don’t know. But it looked insanely exciting.

Waves blockchain took on new life that day. Literally and figuratively. And I got hope for a unique future.

This was the moment everyone had been waiting for. The ducks began to born eggs.

Before our eyes, everything we had invested — our time, our energy, our patience — was paying off with great speed. The ducks could bring 5–10–20 EGGs a month. We could hatch new ducks or sell EGGs. And it was amazing.

From my first farming EGGs, I was able to go on a little trip around my country. I looked at new places through glasses of gratitude to those who helped me realize my long-held dreams. And it seemed as if everyone had exhaled a little. But there was so much more to see and do ahead of us!

Shortly before the ducks came along, two dear members of my family passed away. My life went into anabiosis, too. It seemed as if everything had stopped, slowed down.

When Waves Ducks came into my life, everything changed. The dust-covered gears started turning again. The world began to take on color. Looking back, I realize it was necessary.

The creative rounds taught me how to work with graphics, video, pumped up my communication and foreign language skills. It’s fun to remember now how we had to understand the Spanish community when we first got into the game. It was very exciting!

The now popular word “metaverse” is not just a word here. After only 9 months of existence, the ducks have managed to surround themselves with many different projects.

Take a look at this picture. A lot of what was just an afterthought at the start is already there. Waves Ducks is developing its little world step by step. By listening to users and considering the opinions of new and experienced players alike.

My opinion is that, at the moment, the game Waves Ducks is severely underrated. Small bugs and flaws blind users to the overall picture of a strong project that has incredible potential to be the best NFT-project in the world.

I am currently writing this article from a new MacBook that I couldn’t even dream of a year ago. I bought it for the comfort of growing a duckling and participating in a new game — MetaRace.

That’s how starting from a sold “picture” you can grow your own world.

Is 9 months a lot or a little? It’s up to you to decide. 9 months with Waves Ducks is a lifetime!

While it’s not our role to comment on geopolitics in this forum, as a financial institution that is deeply integrated into cryptocurrency, I feel that it is appropriate to comment on Connect Financial’s position with regards to sanctions, user banning and complying with government regulations.

Firstly, the whole team at Connect Financial is deeply passionate about the decentralization of financial systems and the opportunity for unbanked and underbanked people to participate in the global economy.

With that said, decentralization does not mean without limits. As a responsible and appropriately licensed company, we are obligated to follow a range of international standards which can affect residents of certain countries and jurisdictions. In the case of Russia, we will closely follow any international sanction rules that are set out by the relevant authorities.

What we won’t do is make arbitrary decisions around what services we provide to whom outside of any international or local regulations. We have carefully designed our systems to be able to adapt to changing circumstances quickly and limit certain services to regions if we are required to do so.

Some great questions were raised in the Telegram group this week around how the membership requirements change should the token price change over time. I want to take a moment to explain how a few scenarios play out when it comes to committing to a membership as the token value changes over time.

To become eligible for a membership, you need to commit CNFI tokens for a period of at least 6 months. The amount of CNFI tokens required is determined by the USD equivalent at the time of membership.

Once you select your preferred membership tier, a quote is generated based on the current price of CNFI tokens. Once the quote has been generated, it is locked for 24 hours while you transfer over the required amount of tokens to the staking wallet.

As mentioned above, when you stake CNFI tokens to become eligible for a membership, you are committing them for a period of 6 months. At the end of each 180 day period, you may rebalance your staked CNFI tokens and withdraw them back into your unstaked balance.

For example, on June 1st, the value of CNFI is $0.75. In order to qualify for a platinum membership, you stake 133333 CNFI tokens ($100K USD equivalent). Six months later on January 1st, the price of CNFI is now $0.92. You may withdraw 24,637 CNFI from your committed allotment in the staking wallet and still retain your Platinum membership.

Once you have staked sufficient CNFI tokens to qualify for a membership tier, your tier level is locked in. We won’t ask you to add additional CNFI tokens at a later date in order to maintain your membership level.

UIUX

Our UIUX designs continue to evolve to support our MVP. As we’ve shown in previous updates our card application flow and membership with its corresponding stacking capabilities have completed UIUX and are well under way their UIUX implementation with our developers. This week we would like to share and showcase our new wallet UIUX. There are still components that are within UIUX developments, but we will be moving this development in our next sprint phase.

Wallet Main

Within the main wallet screen from the left navigation you get everything you need to quickly review, digest and manage your Connect wallets from transactional based wallets, through to collateral wallets and stacking wallets. Instantly see overall balances, specific assets balances, review total actions including sends, receives, transfers, new wallets created, etc. and if applicable any collateral spend.

When you click on any of the main wallet segments drop down arrow instantly it expands to clearly identify all the wallets you have with their high-level details.

To deep dive into a specific transactional wallet simply click the arrow to be taken to a page with specific dashboard metrics and reporting to that wallet account, view all assets and associated balances, all transactions history and all assets history with marketplace tickers to know what you’ve increased/decreased in asset value over the last 24 hrs.

When we dive into the collateral wallets the information is presented in a manner on screen to easily associate the credit card attached to the collateral wallet, the total balance, how much of the total balance is locked in collateralization and loan details. Diving deeper into the loan details you can link off to view the credit card details with its associated transactions, quickly view loan spend to available credit and all other key facts surrounding your collateral agreement, collateral wallet activity and if a bill payment is due to keep your collateral in good standings.

Our UIUX design is continuing its focus on updating the stacking wallets deep dive UIUX and crypto/fiat deposit modal. Stay tuned in the coming week updates for more visualization of our UIUX developments.

Marketing

Last week we had shared our card packaging and are pleased to expand the announcement that our basic, silver and gold packaging is well underway with a final print production test prior going to manufacturers. We are also deep in the developments for the more sophisticated packaging to support our platinum and black box and look forward its completion and unboxing events.

We are thrilled to share our new card packaging designs to support card delivery for the first 3 tiers of our cards (Basic, Silver and Gold) have been developed with a print test received. We will be going into professional manufacturing in the coming weeks. Alongside this our packaging design for the premium and black cards have also continued its developments with structural design complete and preparations for professional manufacturing well on their way.
