👇A short thread on how to turn your Rolex/AP/Patek into an NFT via @4KProtocol and getting a loan on @Arcade_xyz 1/7
Someone just took a $14,500 loan on two Rolexes at 12% APR from a complete stranger all on-chain The Rolexes were sent to an escrow company who then sent back NFTs representing ownership of the watches The borrower can then use those NFTs to tap into global liquidity rather than taking a predatory loan at their local pawn shop If they default? The lender can use the NFTs to redeem the watches One of the most obvious and easy to understand use cases of NFTs

Another NFT loan facilitated by @Arcade_xyz + vaulted by 4K 👏🏼
I just gave a $50,000 loan at 15% APR against an NFT that legally represents ownership of this Richard Millie I saw the listing, placed an offer I was comfortable with, and the borrower accepted. No paperwork, no credit checks, nothing... its that simple I don't know the borrower, but I do know that in 60 days I'll either earn $1,232 of interest or I'll be able to burn the NFT and have a cool new watch shipped to me The watch was authenticated, stored, and tokenized by the most trusted escrow for Real World Assets (RWAs) in crypto and as always the loan was facilitated on Arcade

1) 🚨Problem: On-chain #royalties are a huge innovation for the crypto space, but they’re not enforceable due to wrapping and #p2p trades. Tl;dr – Fees must be enforced at the NFT contract level, not the marketplace level. Potential solutions👇 🧵 from 4K CEO @Megatron
i think the creator royalty argument is actually a lot simpler than people make it out to be. There is ZERO way to FORCE royalties technologically so creators will have to build a collector base that WANT to honor these royalties…. It’s really that simple. 🤷

Need liquidity? Think of a 4K Physically-Backed Token as a digital warehouse receipt. The NFT represents a 1:1 relationship w/ RWAs you bring on-chain. Merging physical and digital worlds instantly unlocks Web3’s power. 1. Buy @9dccxyz IT-01 2. Redeem 3. Vault w/ 4K 4. DeFi
Replying to @gmoneyNFT
At @9dccxyz we innovated on this, by working with @4KProtocol to create an actual Physically Backed Token, i.e. a token that acts as a bearer instrument for a physical product stored in the 4k storage facility. 4/16

8) Remember, a 4K NFT is always backed by the physical asset. With Physically-Backed NFTs, intrinsic and speculative value aren't on the NFT itself, but on the underlying collectible. 4K adds value by providing infrastructure to unlock more utility from latent assets.

2) 4K Protocol is the first fully #decentralized protocol for tokenizing physical assets. Bringing physical assets on-chain is hard. Past attempts to solve this problem have been centralized, ad-hoc, and open to fraud. 4K solved this.

We have a unique connection with “things.” We acquire them and struggle to let them go- even when they lock up our liquidity. The 4K solution? Bring RWAs on-chain as physically backed NFTs and plug them into #DeFi like @arcade_xyz for instant loans. Web3’s digital pawnshop.👇
I come from a family of pawn brokers. I used to make loans IRL on Rolex's when I worked in the shops. We're bringing that liquidity into DeFi now with @arcade_xyz and @4KProtocol. Pawn shops are humankind's oldest financial institution. Billion $ industry ready for disruption.

This is how we show “Proof of Asset.” What does an on-chain NFT look like? Stunning. If you missed yesterday’s ‘MINT THIS’ Livestream👇, we’re bullish on @Hermes_Paris #Birkinbags in the 4K Vault. Real assets. Real transparency. Tuesday’s on Twitch. piped.video/Fcop_lWEn9I

1) Art. Crypto. Voting. All three are expressions of independence. Now they’re merging the physical and digital worlds. In 2020 the Pink Fist “Vote” non-partisan campaign had 100M views on billboards around the US. Today their $20.22 NFT empowers “Vote On-Chain and IRL.” 🧵

It’s easy to think about bringing your house on-chain and then collateralizing it. But what about your sneaker collection? Watch collection? Pokémon trading cards? Non-traditional (and dormant) assets are the next wave for web3, gen z, and beyond.
