To ensure clarity, this article is divided into two sections; the first section gives a full account of questions asked by the AMA host while the second section gives full detail of questions asked by the Telegram community.
SECTION 1
Mike: Hello Mohit and Tarusha, it’s a pleasure to have you with us in our wonderful community!
TM: Hi again, I am Tarusha, the cofounder of Unifarm and OpenDefi.
Mohit Madan: Hey Mike. Thank you for hosting the AMA and giving us this wonderful opportunity to address this amazing community! Just for the record nearly 1 million USD of $RAZOR is already staked by this super community on Unifarm
Mike: I know you have a lot of updates and exciting events coming but let’s start back at the beginning, what birthed the idea of UniFarm?
TM: We started working on Unifarm when we realized that blockchain founders seem to have the same issue regarding their tokens - the massive price fluctuations, bad unlocks leading to sell pressure and essentially the project being labelled as a pump and dump are all very disheartening for the founders and the team. We were solving these problems for $ORO and thus $UFARM was born. We were trying to ensure that the solution helps both projects and retail users.
Mohit: Unifarm was born out of necessity. While building OpenDeFi, we were worried about the falling price of ORO and wanted to make sure there is more utility for it, so we got together with few founder friends to discuss this idea.
They loved it instantly and we launched our first cohort with MATIC, REEF, CNTR, ORO and FRONT. We expected it to be like any other staking program, growing slowly then gradually. All of us were taken aback when the pools got filled in hours.
We started getting bombarded with projects and investors for new pools. So, we knew we had the product market fit. Since then, we have added a lot more functionality, 3 different gamification modules and have launched 4 cohorts with $8.3 million in TVL already.
Mike: What will you say is the unique selling point of UniFarm? Why has it caught on so fast?
TM: The USP is simple yet multifold:
Mike: Aside from giving users a place to stake tokens, what problems does UniFarm solve?
Mohit: 1. Investors
Mike: So, what can we expect to come next for Unifarm? What other major updates do you have in store for us?
Mohit: We've barely scratched the surface. This month we'd be launching our first ever cohort on Binance Smart Chain. Then moving to Polygon cohorts very soon after that.
We're super excited about our upcoming token launch and IDO on Duckstarter, Poolz, Launchpool and Zendit!
Mike: Your journey started with building utility for ORO and from that you have made a simple and in-demand utility solution Unifarm. I know a lot of people must be wondering, why $UFARM? Why not stick with the ORO token?
Mohit: When we had started with the ORO journey, we had not accounted for Unifarm. In fact, the idea was not even incepted.
Unifarm is a very community driven product and hence demands its own tokenomics which can ensure value creation for stakers. Having said that we have tried to make sure that there's massive value capture in ORO token by $UFARM
For this we have a three-tiered strategy:

docs.unifarm.co (https://docs.unifarm.co/capturing-value-in-oro-token)
Capturing Value in ORO Token
Mike: So, tell us more about $UFARM! What are the use cases of $UFARM and will they be included in some of the up-and-coming Cohorts?
Mohit: $UFARM would be part of several major cohorts enabling $UFARM holders to stake it and get access to many high-quality project tokens.
Here;s a complete overview of $UFARM use cases including Governance, access to premium pools, etc: https://docs.unifarm.co/unifarm-token/use-cases
Mike: I like some of the add-on features listed like Insurance and NFT farming. Those I think we will be big in the future.
Mohit: Yup, giving $RAZOR stakers the ability to claim NFT, or even for that matter get instant loans against their stakes is just scratching the surface.
Mike: If you have any last info you would like to share before we open it up, feel free
Mohit: Yep, so Unifarm being so community driven we're doing 4 public Launches with
Duckstarter, Poolz, Launchpool, ZendIt
