Things are really heating up for #LINKSWAP since the last thread, and quite frankly I can hardly believe how bullish it all is.
I believe a sell-side liquidity crisis is coming.
Data below 👇👇👇
Here’s a breakdown of how many $YFL are locked/deposited in contracts:
V1/V2 governance vaults: 12,803 YFL
YFL/ETH pool (LINKSWAP): 2,387 YFL
YFL/LINK pool (LINKSWAP): 2,736 YFL
YFL/ETH pool (Uniswap): 1,502 YFL
Total # of YFL deposited in contracts: 19,428 (39% of supply)
Now, of course this is constantly changing as people trade between YFL and its pairs, but the trend is striking:
People are depositing thousands of YFL each day into various contracts, restricting the circulating supply.
Here’s something imperative to consider:
Unlike the governance tokens of most other DEXs, $YFL does *not* have an inflationary supply.
In fact, upcoming initiatives like Wafflehouse will actually give YFL a deflationary supply!
Furthermore, starting this week, $YFL will see a steady stream of buy-side pressure.
When stakers withdraw their rewards (in the form of yYFL) from the vault, the smart contract market buys YFL to convert their LINK/ETH tx fees into YFL.
LINKPAD (@linkpadio) will also market buy $YFL tokens on LINKSWAP each quarter using 70% of the fund’s net profits.
Okay, now here’s what causes a sell-side liquidity crisis:
#LINKSWAP tapped $1 million in 24h volume today, without any major news or abnormal trading activities...
The reason why? $YFL liquidity and trading is migrating away from Uniswap.
More 👇👇👇
Liquidity for the pairs on the platform just broke above $20,000,000 today, which is 2x that seen on Kyber.
Kyber's token currently has a $189,000,000 valuation.
YFL has a ~$27,000,000 valuation.
Combine this with the uber-bullish post from @linkpadio today regarding their investment in Sovryn, and it's clear that some *serious* value is about to be directed to $YFL and the staking vault.
