Hello, Rubicans! Winter is here, and the Rubic team is working hard to warm you up with some good news. Let’s see what’s happened this week.
New RBC Tokenomics
As you know, Rubic needs to relaunch its token, which will be created on Ethereum. We want our community to vote on Rubic’s future path, and the vote will last from December 2nd 08:00 UTC to December 5th at 20:59 UTC.
Link to vote:
Read our article to learn more: https://cryptorubic.medium.com/introducing-the-new-rubic-tokenomics-the-way-forward-abca6cf11d8d.
If the vote is successful, the snapshot will be completed on Dec. 12th at 12:00 CET. You’ll be able to claim the new RBC at a ratio of 1:1 to the old, as long as your old RBC is in a private wallet (no CEXs).
The new RBC will be listed on Uniswap at the pre-snapshot price.
The total supply to be minted in Dec. 2022 is 176M RBC, so current holders keep their share for at least a year and Rubic gets a chance to make a move in the market with an updated product and additional funds. More RBC can be minted in the coming years for marketing, partners, VCs, & ecosystem growth. Locks and vesting periods will help prevent token price dumps. There’s also a possibility to burn tokens if needed.
The article above features Retrodrops to holders, a new Rubic product for dApps, new RBC utilities, and much more — please study it carefully before voting.
Thank you for your support, Rubicans, and stay tuned for more updates!
Development
- Velas Integration
This week, we integrated the Velas Blockchain into Rubic.exchange. With this integration, the Rubic ecosystem gains its 25th network!
Now, users can swap VLX, AVAX, BETS, BNB, BUSD, DAI, ETH, MATIC, MTC, USDC, USDT, and WBTC tokens (depending on the chain) across 12 other blockchains: Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, Avalanche, Fantom, Telos, Bitgert, Cronos, Kava, Boba, Oasis, and Celo.
This integration has also brought the VLX token to the Rubic Platform, where it’s available for on-chain and cross-chain swaps on the Velas network. VLX is used for transactions, payments, fees, and for supporting Proof-of-Stake consensus.
Let’s explore the Velas Network in numbers:
Velas Market Cap: $54M
Velas TVL: $5M
Total transactions: 251,350,649
Average block time: 400 milliseconds
Wallet addresses: 143,260
Check out the Velas explorer here: https://evmexplorer.velas.com/
Velas is the first and fastest EVM/eBPF Hybrid Chain mechanism blockchain, which allows building decentralized applications and smart contracts on its mainnet, allows the scalability of transactions, and is able to validate up to 75,000 transactions per second.

Now, users can swap MAI, QI, and WEMIX tokens (depending on the chain) across 9 other blockchains: Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, Fantom, Moonbeam, Optimism, Arbitrum, Gnosis, and Celo.
Let’s explore the Klaytn Network in numbers:
Market Cap: $553M
TVL: $207M
Total transactions: 251,350,649
Average block time: 1 second
Avg Transactions per Block: 6
