Adventurers,
A few weeks ago, the Loot Alliance launched the updated website and brought a little energy to the Lootverse. A week later, @TimshelXYZ the historian uncovered lore hidden in the contract, and shared it with 100+ people on Loot’s first community call.
That call brought a lot of energy to the Lootverse. #general is back. The Discord server is alive with ideas. You can feel the momentum. The Loot Herald aims to keep the ball rolling.
We’re experimenting with something new this week. Instead of a long post full of Loot community updates and Loot project updates and teasers, we’re going to start publishing one newsletter for Loot community updates, and one for Loot project updates and teasers. Every week. Two newsletters a week is the new cadence.
Monday — Loot Community: Weekly Updates
Thursday — Loot Projects: Launches, Updates and Teasers
Today’s Post
Discord Update - Outposts
Lore Canon in the Contract - by @TimshelXYZ the historian
Tonight! NFT.NYC Meetup (for Loot Adventurers)
AGLD Token Proposal
Discord Update - Outposts
Last week, the Loot Alliance launched OUTPOSTS
The postings channel serves as a place for the builders to keep the community up to date on the latest releases and activity:
Lootverse news
Project updates and announcements
Moments of fun and levity from project Discords
Calls for contributors to work on things across projects
Additionally, each project has created or is in the process of creating their own channel. These serve as “outposts” where Loot players can plug into specific communities to find updates, chat about gameplay, or get directed to Discord servers, where the majority of the gaming, discoveries and fun take place.
Lore Canon in the Contract - by @TimshelXYZ the historian
Last week the Loot Project held its first community call. We had an amazing turnout (100+ people!). During the call, we unveiled a breakthrough revelation about Loot…
A structure, system and infinite set of stories hidden right inside the Loot contract:
Three “Classes” of Adventurers: Mages, Hunters, Warriors (class/archetype names to be voted on by the Loot community)
Three Materials: Cloth, Hide, Metal
16 Orders: of Brilliance, of the Twins, of Power, of the Fox, etc.
A Value System: the contract subtly ranks every item from 1 (highest value) to 5 (lowest)
Light and Dark, Dragons and Demons: more to come…
These foundational truths and universal constructs have been hiding in plain sight all along. Once it hits you, you simply can’t unsee it. See here for the full deep dive:
The energy from the call and the chat was just astounding. (NOTE: A few things were tweaked between the call and the final derived order, as the community came together to bring this home.)

I believe that if we build together, Loot can be as meaningful as Star Wars for the next generation of builders, players, and dreamers.
thou mayest,
Tonight! NFT.NYC Meetup (for Loot Adventurers)
Join Adventurers and Friends of Adventures at the Loot community’s inaugural IRL meetup.
AGLD Token Proposal
Full proposal details: https://loot-talk.com/t/adventure-gold-tokenomics-proposal-v1/1156
TLDR
New AGLD tokens are issued to staked Loots and staked mLoots.
The amount of AGLD that will be distributed between staked Loots and staked mLoots is proportional to the floor market cap of Loot & mLoot.
Issuance happen on a weekly basis (1 epoch).
Issuance on the first year will be 8,000,000 tokens (10% inflation on the 1st year).
Halvings happen yearly (approaching a soft cap of 20% inflation from the initial 80M total supply).
Snapshot voting starts today: [AGIP - 1] Adventure Gold Tokenomics Proposal v1
Keep dreaming.
Keep building.
