COOKIE (COOKIE)

"Force majeure" event only occurs if the relevant terms/contract include it There's nothing in the Cookie terms from what I can see Maybe people should be claiming their losses

not sure what to feel I know that cookie is not exactly 'wrong' (and is somehow semi 'right') but this move feels very inhumane (just very hoostile) I tootally get that there isn't a quick fix but this just completely kills the heart of it's existing users and stakers really not sure if we can see a recover from here

So let me get this straight: @cookiedotfun gets users to lock their tokens for ecosystem benefits. Those benefits disappear claiming force majeure, akin to an insurance company rejecting your valid claim. They are changing the terms of the deal and holding their community hostage. Totally laughable. If token isn't at 0, it will be by the time users can unstake. Any justification of benefits going forward is simply lip service to allow team tokens to unlock.

Imagine staking and locking your assets in return for a service and now that service doesn't exist this is crypto, this is $COOKIE

This is probably the worst PR handling I've seen in this situation. Ngl, if they have a PR team, they can do way better, and here's exactly what the PR team should do in this case for damage control. 1. Quick acknowledgment n options "We hear the frustration, we're sorry for the sudden impact on stakers and are exploring emergency unstake with some compensation via future perks." All funds are hostage and no exit, stakers feel ignored and backstabbed rn. Starting with "we hear you" + "sorry" shows they actually listen and care, at least try to lower the rage level. Adding "exploring emergency unstake + comp", the unstake option or perks based compensation means some people will hold for the comp instead of dumping rn. 2. New Timeline "Full update on Cookie Pro utilities + staker relief plan by end of this month." Tbh no one will believe the "in the future" or "soon" those bs anymore, just set a hard date, for example, end of January, it gives everyone a real checkpoint: hold and wait, or cut losses AT THAT TIME. I get that the team hasn't figured out a real Plan B yet, but failing to do proper damage control is only accelerating the price drop even more. Now their response just proves the team's lack of vision + slow execution. Hey @cookiedotfun, you guys should step up with something like this before the dump gets worse.

I staked around $2-$3k worth of $COOKIE for 365 days few months ago if you don’t want me to unstake while my bag goes to 0 bcs the only utility I had with these lock-up tokens is gone, ATLEAST give me a box of cookies… https://t.co/e2Jc2oO5G6

this is exactly why i said the other day, staking is a damn lie. nothing is ever worth the liquidity lockup. in this case, you just made a nice donation into the cookie jar. https://t.co/KIOCj0Ambp

Extremely disappointing decision here from @cookiedotfun. Know tonnes of small creators who staked COOKIE for a chance at performing well in their campaigns. For them that $2-8K was a huge part of their port. They've already taken a big enough hit on the campaigns being removed which was out of anyones control. Yet another lesson to never stake anything, literally never ends well. Sucks.

"Stake your $COOKIE for a boosts on snaps!" "Staking involve taking risks" This is why I personally don't do long-term staking We had the same issue with $PRIME, $VIRTUAL, then with $VADER, now $COOKIE

They say COOKIE Coin will be used in a new campaign. Let's watch for now.
