Still not sure if $LunaX is for you?

Here's a Beginner's Guide to $LunaX.

By the end of this guide…

You'll be able to squeeze out yield opportunities across Terraverse like a pro.

Let's get started...

🧶⏬
There are plenty of mouth-watering yield opportunities across Terraverse.

And it all starts with staking $LUNA.

However, there's an issue.

Say you have 10 $LUNA and you stake them to earn rewards and airdrops.

The moment you do that, all 10 $LUNA get locked.
What about the other yield opportunities?

You have two options:

Option 1: You acquire more $LUNA to grab those opportunities.

Problem: You need to spend additional fiat.

Option 2: Stake 50% of your $LUNA and use the remaining 50% to exploit another opportunity.

Problem:
You aren't maximizing staking rewards.

So what do you do?

You know what?

There's a third option that no one talks about-

Liquid Staking.

With liquid staking, you can stake all 10 $LUNA and still exploit other yield opportunities.

Here's how:
When you liquid stake your $LUNA you get $LunaX in return.

So, while your $LUNA are staked and locked...

You can use $LunaX to grab other yield opportunities.

Why?

Because $LunaX is essentially a representation of your stake.

What does that mean?
Think about bank deposits.

When you deposit your money with the bank for a long term, you receive a deposit certificate.

The certificate is a representation of your deposit.

So, while your money is locked in the bank, you can use deposit certificate to borrow money.

Now:
You can now use this borrowed money to increase your returns by investing it.

$LunaX allows you to do the same thing.

Since $LunaX represents your stake, you can use it to borrow several Terra assets.

And invest them in profitable avenues.

For example:
@anchor_protocol pays a healthy 20% APY on $UST deposits.

So, you can borrow $UST from @EdgeProtocol and deposit it on Anchor.

At the same time, you're also earning rewards on the 10 $LUNA you staked.

This is the most simple beginner level way to use $LunaX.

There's more:
Another major concern beginners face is whether staking is the right move for them.

You see, once you stake your $LUNA it's not easy to unstake them.

You'll have to wait for 21 days after you unstake them to actually receive them in your wallet.

Concerns like:
What if the $LUNA price dives south?

You'll want to get out of your staked position ASAP to minimize your loss.

Or what if you need to sell your $LUNA because you urgently need cash.

Waiting for 21 days doesn't seem so appealing, right?

Well, $LunaX solves all these too.
Since it's a representation of your stake, you can simply sell $LunaX.

Your 10 $LUNA stays staked.

But by transferring your $LunaX tokens, you transfer ownership of your staked $LUNA.

You simply swap your $LunaX to $UST and exchange the $UST to fiat.

That means:
You don't have to wait for 21 days to turn your $LUNA into cash.

You can do it instantly - in a snap.

$LunaX might seem like it's for expert and advanced crypto users.

But it's equally useful, beneficial and profitable for beginners too.
