Deposit Delegator is Live, Pool Tools, PoolTogether Season 1 NFTs, Aavegotchi <> PoolTogether AMA on Tuesday, First Chinese Community Call on Friday & more ๐๐
Whatโs up Pool Party People,
Monday means missions, minting & moar news from your favorite pool-themed protocol. Get your sunscreen on, itโs getting hot as Mike! ๐ฅ
Letโs start with the Delegatooor:
Deposit Delegator is Live ๐
We talked about the Delegation feature of PoolTogether before: Itโs a powerful tool to enable others to win prizes on your behalf!
The all-new Deposit Delegator allows to easily delegate portions of a PoolTogether deposit (in the form of PTaUSDC tickets) to multiple wallets (Delegatees). This increases the Delegateeโs chance of winning prizes by the delegated amount. A Delegator can delegate to an unlimited amount of different wallets with individual amounts each.
Here are some example use cases so you can shill it to your DAO frens, and help us pool pill them all:
Protocols can deposit treasury funds and delegate to their users or token-holders
Projects can delegate to anyone holding a certain NFT or POAP
Brands can delegate to winners of their raffle
DAOs can delegate to their contributors of the month
You can delegate to friends and family to effectively onboard them to DeFi
Thatโs by far not all the Deposit Delegator can do. What are your ideas? Drop us a message on Discord!
๐ More info and a full tutorial on how to use the Deposit Delegator
Pool Tools! ๐
With the Deposit Delegator PoolTogether also introduced tools.pooltogether.com - a brand new interface for tools within the PoolTogether ecosystem. Watch this space for future updates!

Train of the Century ๐
Train of the Century is a blockchain-based Railroad Simulator game. Roughly 500 daily โRailroadersโ have been Beta testing since November 12th 2021. Their Version 1 is launching on March 31st (thatโs Thursday!). Why does this matter? Because itโs awesome and brought to you by no other than PoolTogether contributor McOso!
As a POOL Hodler Special they welcome all Poolers to join them on the rails. Train of the Century is setting up all interested POOL Hodlers with a WAX wallet and their first train in form of four NFTs.
๐ย Watch out for the pinned post on how to get started in the #pool-hodlers channel on PoolTogether Discord.

Time for a POOL Party (Part 2)
The first post in this series outlined the growth flywheel for the protocol and ended with the question โWhat method of POOL distribution will create the largest sustainable prizes?โ. This post does not yet answer that question. It expands on what prizes are in the context of the PoolTogether protocol. This post enables a better foundation for understanding how the POOL token can improve the protocol.
