If the FP % is down, the chart will be red or green if it's up. -Added live-feed widget on the homepage, so new visitors can discover it easily -Added a cool shiny effect on the Featured projects box to attract more views and clicks. -We started working on the Token creation tool Started working on Staking as a service, so not just we gonna have our locking/staking for Moonly, but other projects will be able to create their own staking and apply token rewards. Constantly improving and exploring different aspects of application. To mention that we defined Twitter Growth Strategy, which we started applying the last week. There were a lot of small bugs and small fixes which needed to be solved, and they are not worth mentioning here since its very technical.
Our next big goals for the near future are:
Portfolio tracker Staking as a service Discord bot and tools for projects Expand to other chains. ETH, APTOS, etc. And something really big, which I will not discuss until we deliver the above-mentioned features.

NFTslangs - The Ultimate NFT Slangs Dictionary
Hey guys, I wanted to share one recent side project me and my crew made. It’s called nftslangs.com, and it’s just a database with all crypto/NFT slang or words, that people use in this space.
I built this for a few reasons. One is, when I dived into the NFT space last year, there were a lot of terms I couldn’t understand. What the heck means “paper hand” or “rug” and so on?
So I decided to create this database that collects most of those words, which can help newbies in the space communicate and understand better.
Another reason, I decided to build NFTslangs, is that we are already developing moon.ly for around a year, and it’s going to be a great addon to other Moonly tools which we already provide out there.
Here are some of the most popular slang words used in NFT space:

Moonly weekly progress update #29
Happy holidays everyone, I hope you enjoyed your Christmas feasts and had a good rest!
Weekly devs progress:
Staking (Locking):
We are going to release a points-based system, and holders who lock/stake their NFT will get the points every day or week (depending on the frequency we decide), and those points will be used for valuable Raffles which we going to have every week or so, but also on the marketplace/merch which will come later.
Our NFT metadata will be modified and we will add one more field called points/credits (still to decide), which will be frequently updated. The NFTs that have more points under their metadata, will be of course more valuable.
Staking as a Service tool will give other founders the ability to create their own Token and Staking system, without hiring a developer or writing a single line of code.
We are still deciding whether we should wait and release the whole thing with points-based locking/staking, or release SaaS first (Staking as a Service). Staking will be non-custodial!

Moonly weekly progress update #36
Last week we silently released our Sales/Listing Discord Bot in production. In addition to sales events, it shows listing and delisting, but in the future, it will also show other types of events like transfers, staking, etc.
The sales bot is nothing spectacular, but it’s an important step in our set of tools that we will release for projects and communities.
What is next?
Probably this week, we will do the first production test on our Holder Verification Bot (HVB), and we will need your help. We tested it out on DEVNET for a while, but the best feedback will be from real people in a real environment. So please stay tuned for that, and help us test HVB out. After that, we can release it for other Discord servers and compete with Matrica.
We improved our SaaS (Staking as a Service) a lot. It might be released in production by the end of February or earlier. Had a call with the founder of an interesting upcoming project, and when I showed him what we built, he was very interested in using our service. His mint is happening at the end of February, and that is why we gonna aim to release it by then. In addition to SaaS, we are releasing a simple but useful no-code Token Creation Tool that will come in handy for many upcoming projects.
Portfolio Tracker functionality is mostly in place. The only thing we are dealing with right now is collecting missing 1.4B (billion) of data. Currently, we are collecting data at a speed of ~20–30M (millions) per day, which is a lot, but it would still take around ~2 months to collect full data. So, currently working on it to scale it at least 3–5x times. This data will not be used only for Portfolio Tracker (PT) but in other features, we are currently building and the one that will be built after it. So it’s very important to finally finish that part.
We are working on adding automation on Moonly for the buy, listing, and other types of events on multiple marketplaces. We got our API approved by MagicEden and HyperSpace. We have positive experiments and results, and after that is implemented, we gonna work on buying automation, AKA sniping bot. I am excited to see how that will work on Moonly.
We are secretly (not secret anymore) working on importing tens of thousands of ETH collections on Moonly and providing the same data and tools for this blockchain. We had this idea from the beginning, and you probably noticed that we are serving upcoming projects for multiple blockchains, including ETH, but not market stats. This gonna be a massive deal for Moonly, as we gonna attract a lot of eyes to Moonly and Solana collections as well. We are already ranking well for many keywords on Solana space; now we gonna take a piece of the pie for the ETH.
We are cooking something secretly that only a few of us know. We will let you know once we release those tools developed for months. It’s gonna play an essential part for the Moonly foundation and its holders.
Many minor things that I have no time to discuss over the announcement, but it is an excellent addition to Moonly.
Our high-level goal is to release those tools and lock down the access to the founders of the project that only hold X number of Moonly NFT (at the current FP 20+ NFT), partner with them, gain exposure by providing value to their communities, and be very competitive in this space.
Once we achieve this, the demand for the Moonly NFT will go up, listing down, which will naturally lead to an increase of FP, more value to the holders, better recognition in the space, and overall more opportunities.
Remember this. We are going wide and slow, so it takes some time to release this stuff. But once we do it, it will open doors to many incredible things.
Be good, take care, and don’t stop believing in Moonly. Otherwise, you will be the guy who was so close, but …
