Starting January 29, more than 100,000 USD worth of GHST, QUICK, and MATIC will be distributed to GHST and GHST-QUICK stakers!

Aavegotchi is launching this February on Matic Network, the ultimate NFT frenly side-chain to Ethereum. That means it’s time to get familiar with using MetaMask on Matic and bridging your GHST over. Especially because from January 29 — February 12, over $100,000 USD worth of liquidity incentives in GHST, MATIC, and QUICK tokens are waiting to be farmed!

Frequently Asked Questions:

How will GHST and MATIC rewards be distributed?

Inspired by Balancer’s innovative liquidity mining schema, we will use block snapshots to calculate each holder’s balance in the GHST Staking Contracts at hourly intervals throughout the reward period. At the end of each 7-day period, rewards will be calculated and we will airdrop GHST and MATIC in proportion to each participant.

In total, there will be two drops of GHST and MATIC, one for each 7 days of the total 14-day liquidity reward period.

What happens to my existing FRENS points, Vouchers and Raffle Tickets on Ethereum Mainnet?

We got you covered! Pixelcraft’s mad scientists have “mirrored” all your FRENS points and Raffle Tickets over to the Matic Network. Previously won wearables vouchers will also be airdropped during the launch window. So all you have to do is bridge your GHST tokens over!

Hardware wallets like Ledger and Trezor don’t play well with Matic bridge. What do I do???

Best practice is to get yourself a MetaMask and move your GHST there. Then contact Pixelcraft co-founder Jesse (@gldnxross on Telegram and Twitter). You’ll send him:

  1. Your old Ledger wallet
  2. Your new MetaMask wallet

We will make sure your Ledger’s FRENS points and other Aavegotchi NFTs get mirrored over to your new Matic side MetaMask wallet.

If you don’t like social networks you can email us directly at support@aavegotchi.com

How do I get my MetaMask ready for Matic?

  1. Adding Matic Network to your existing MetaMask is as easy as a few copy and pasted lines:

Choose Custom RPC from the dropdown and enter the following settings:

Network Name: Matic Mainnet
New RPC URL: https://rpc-mainnet.maticvigil.com/
Chain ID: 137
Currency Symbol: MATIC
Block Explorer URL: https://explorer.matic.network/

How do I get Matic gas tokens on Matic?

MATIC token is used for paying gas on Matic. Typically you will receive 0.1 MATIC for depositing a token via the bridge, but if the airdrop does not work, you can ask for some in the Aavegotchi telegram or #matic-request channel in Discord.

In conclusion

The first Haunt of Aavegotchi Portals will be launching on Matic this February, which means you’ll need some GHST there to cop your Portals.

In the meantime, starting January 29th you can choose your path, adventurer: Stake GHST at aavegotchi.com/stake-matic or venture into the wilder territory of GHST-QUICK LP for a potentially higher reward.

Four million GHST have already made the journey to Matic, what’re you waiting for fren?
