Have a background in mobile and web apps\ndevelopment, in 2017 founded crypto development agency, in 2019 created a CRM\nfor medical clinics and in early 2020 got back to crypto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My friend and cofounder Nick has financial background,\nworked at Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, our product team consists of 7\nseasoned developers with background in cybersecurity and fintech. In last year\u2019s\nOctober we fair launched Node Runners NFT game, things we\u2019ve learnt about NFTs\nand DeFi we\u2019re now implementing in Drops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Andr\u00e9s M. | Satoshi\nClub:<\/strong> Great background, it&#8217;s an honor to meet you, so what is the essence\nof Drops and how did the project come alive?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alpha Noder: <\/strong>Drops\nbrings DeFi solutions to NFTs, enabling holders to obtain a loan and earn yield\nwith NFT assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q1 from Telegram User\n@NataliyaKil<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>For each purchase, I\ncan get up to 5% cashback in DROP tokens. Does cashback accrue instantly from\neach purchase or after a certain period, for example, a week or a month? What\ndetermines the% of cashback accrual and are there any situations when it is not\ncredited at all or burns out? And where can I then spend my cashback? <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alpha Noder:<\/strong> Cashback\nis obtained when users buy NFTs from the NFT Drops, the reward is sent after\nthe purchase transaction, it&#8217;s controlled by the smart contracts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;The level of cashback\ndepends on how much liquidity the user is staking, so the more liquidity is\nstaked, the higher cashback plan will be, up to 5<strong>%.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Andr\u00e9s M. | Satoshi\nClub: <\/strong>So, what are the main use cases of $DROP?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alpha Noder: <\/strong>It\ncan be used as payment to by NFTs. Get whitelisted to rare NFT drops. Additionally,\nfees collected from the platform are used to buyback tokens from the market and\nincrease liquidity. so DROP gives you access to rare NFTs and has a buy\npressure coming from platform fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Andr\u00e9s M. | Satoshi Club: <\/strong>How do you deal with fees? How much is\nthe fee for each purchase?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alpha Noder: <\/strong>20% of purchases is allocated to treasury.

To get a loan, we will have to put down a collateral which includes\nNFT. Apart from using NFT as collateral, what are the other assets we can use\nas collateral? NFTs are non-fungible tokens and there\u2019s a way we can convert it\nto fungible tokens and then use it as collateral. Can we use any NFT as\ncollateral? I also<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>saw a place you talked about dNFT token, how can it be used for\nobtaining a loan? Will you need any KYC or any other form of verification?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alpha Noder:<\/strong> Great question! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For collateral we use dNFT tokens\n&#8211; erc20 that represent the NFT, so at first users lock their NFTs to obtain\ndNFT (erc20) which then can be used as collateral. In a similar way as in\nCompound or CREAM. Only whitelisted NFTs that have liquidity at Drops will be\nusable as collateral, there won&#8217;t be any KYC, everything is permissionless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: <\/strong>I see you have thought it through in\nsufficient detail!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alpha Noder:<\/strong> yes, we actually gonna launch testnet in a few weeks, most\nof the work is done already.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Andr\u00e9s M. | Satoshi <\/strong>Club: Congratulations for that, do you have any\nannouncement channel to follow the big news?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alpha Noder: <\/strong>we won&#8217;t miss you! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/dropsnft\">https:\/\/t.me\/dropsnft<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q4 from Telegram User @Winner_don<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>You have successfully completed your private sale which is a very good\ndevelopment.
