Join the Nuon Testnet Campaign: earn OATs & NFTs, help create better money

October 18, 2022

READY, SET, GO!

At long last, the time to join the movement has arrived with the launch of the Nuon testnet. It’s time to put your degen hats on to try out the Nuon Protocol, to give all of the features a good workout and earn OATs and even Wagies NFTs. Are you ready, DeFi Degens?

To promote participation in the testnet launch, the Nuon Protocol is launching a multi-step promotional campaign with The Wagies. People everywhere can join the movement for Better Money and be part of the game-changing launch of the Nuon Flatcoin — the first inflation-proof stablecoin.

But what is a Wagie, you may ask? Wagies is an innovative NFT Game / Art collection that celebrates the loveable Wagie in all of us and casts a new perspective on the crypto bear market with a tongue-in-cheek style that’s sure to grow on you. The Wagies’ gallows humor is a great way to poke fun at how we all get rekt together!

The Nuon Testnet Campaign

The promotional campaign will be a series of events and promotions run through the galxe.com Web3 credential platform. The first event in the campaign will kick off on October 18 and run for four weeks until November 18, 2022. Users who join our testnet and follow the campaign criteria will be eligible for a Galxe Online Achievement Token (OAT) NFT. In addition, at the end of each campaign, there will be a lucky draw for more opportunities to win Wagies NFTs, including special edition ones. Further Galxe campaigns will be announced later for even more opportunities to earn more OATs and Wagie NFTs!

Rewards

There are a number of exciting rewards up for grabs! Some you can earn, and some can be won:

What is the Nuon-Wagies OAT?

It’s not a breakfast cereal!  A Galxe OAT is a digital badge standard on Polygon to record your on-chain experiences, in this case, on the Nuon Testnet.

The Nuon-Wagie OATs are designed by the team behind the Wagies NFT collection. Check out the first OAT for the Early Bird Testnet campaign below.

How to Mint on the Nuon Testnet

Go to https://app.nuon.fi/ to access the Nuon Testnet. There is a detailed walkthrough for each page that will teach you how to access all of the features of the Nuon Protocol — and you are absolutely encouraged to test out all of the features — but for now all you need to know how to do is access the testnet faucet and mint Nuon.

Check out this video or the following walkthrough steps to use the testnet:

Access the Testnet Faucet

  1. Click on the green “Connect Wallet” button. You’ll probably receive a popup allowing you to switch to the Goerli Ethereum network — do this now.
  2. Right above “Connect Wallet”, you’ll see three links for ETH, WETH and USDT. These are testnet faucets, and you can click on them to receive testnet assets straight to your wallet.
  3. Download ETH from the faucet first — you'll have to log in to Twitter to complete the transaction.
  4. Next, download WETH and USDT from the faucet. The gas fees are covered by the ETH you just downloaded. WETH and USDT can be used as collateral to mint Nuon.

Mint Nuon

  1. Click on Mint in the sidebar.
  2. Select an amount of WETH or USDT to deposit as collateral.
  3. Choose your preferred collateral ratio — 200%, 300% or 400%. You can also click “Advanced” to set a custom ratio. This number represents the ratio between the target price of Nuon and the market value of your collateral.
  4. Click “Mint”. (If you receive an error message, make sure you have enough ETH in your wallet to pay gas fees and try again.)

Remember, the testnet does not use your real cryptocurrency assets — it only uses crypto that comes from the testnet faucet. So by all means, test out the Nuon Protocol to your heart’s content!

And lastly, don’t forget to stay tuned for more exciting opportunities in the Nuon Testnet campaign! There will be more promotional events after this one concludes next month. Good luck!
