In this visual thread we will cover as follows:
- Radiant Capital v1
- The Liquidity Mercenary
- Radiant Capital v2
- What is dLP?
- Vesting & Zapping
- dLP Flywheel
- Bounty Hunters
- Collateral Expansions
- Radiant v2 Sustainability

@RDNTCapital v1 paved the way for the first secure and efficient omnichain money market on Arbitrum. With v2, it will bring fragmented liquidity across multiple money markets and chains together.

/4

Radiant v1 rewards participants with $RDNT to capture economic value. This delays sell pressure but doesn't fully mitigate Liquidity Mercenaries which only seeks quick reward turnover.

/5

Radiant Capital v2 expands the protocol to other chains (starting with BNB Chain) and updates $RDNT emission structure with Dynamic Liquidity Provisioning (dLP) to foster growth and better align network participants while ensuring protocol's resiliency.

/6

Dynamic Liquidity Provisioning (dLP) is a new DeFi concept to reward users who add value to the protocol and discourage liquidity mercenaries. Users must lock 5% of LP tokens (in USD value) relative to their deposits to encourage sustainable value capture.

/7

Zapping is a way to participate in dLP by adding LP tokens to a pool with a variable lock-in period (1 month - 1 year). Zappers earn platform fees that can be redeemed immediately, but $RDNT token vesting takes 90 days and early exits may incur a penalty (10-75%).
