A peculiar restlessness has settled over the digital estates, you see. The LayerZero Foundation – a rather important, and, dare I say, self-important body – has extended an offer, a proposition really, to acquire Stargate. One hundred and ten million dollars, they say. As if one can simply *buy* a bridge. It’s all terribly modern, isn’t it? 🙄
The STG token, so full of promise just a short while ago, is to be…retired. A dignified term, I suppose, for being absorbed. Holders will receive, if they consent of course, a mere 0.08634 ZRO for each STG. Such precision! It’s almost unsettling. Apparently, at the time of announcement, this equates to – and one shudders at such calculations – $0.1675 per STG and $1.94 per ZRO. Truly, the market is a capricious mistress.
Stargate, once a proud, independent entity, will become…a department. A division. The DAO, that hopeful experiment in collective governance, will be quietly disbanded. A bit like a summer theatre company after the last performance, really. A sigh, a fond memory, and then…nothing.
“Bring the Bridge Home.” Such sentimentality. One imagines Mr. Pellegrino, brooding over maps and integration charts. He speaks of overhead, of micro-decisions… as if building a cross-chain protocol is akin to managing a particularly fussy household. All of this…yes. All of it. 🤔
The Foundation assures us this is for “acceleration.” For “expansion.” A noble cause, no doubt. Mr. Pellegrino, the co-founder, speaks of a “single stack.” One shudders to think of the paperwork. He also claims it will help Stargate fulfill its “ambitious roadmap.” One wonders if the roadmap included being acquired. 🤷
Stargate, launched in 2022, enjoyed a brief but dazzling period of success, moving billions across the chains. Its token, once reaching a lofty $4.14, has now…deflated. Like a punctured balloon at a children’s party. Such is the fleeting nature of fortune in these digital realms.
The market, predictably, has stirred. STG saw a slight – and I use the word advisedly – increase. ZRO, too, experienced a bump. A temporary reprieve, perhaps? A flicker of hope before the inevitable? The implied value of the deal rose to $127 million. Numbers, numbers…so many numbers. 💸
The Stargate community, understandably, is in a state of mild discontent. Some argue the offer is…insufficient. That their token deserves more. “It was $4 once!” cries one user, as if longing for a lost youth. Mr. Pellegrino, ever the pragmatist, defends the offer as “fair” given the present circumstances. Though of course, all LayerZero people will conveniently abstain from voting. A most considerate gesture.
The forum remains open for debate, for lamentation, for seven days. A short time to decide the fate of a bridge. One suspects the outcome is already known. It always is, isn’t it? Such is life. 😔
