If anyone is interested in holding DEX tokens for passive income $BNT is worth a look. It has many deflationary mechanics & one of the highest TVL’s in crypto. All my $link Padres rave about it, so I had to see for myself. This is a great thread on the mechanics of the protocol.
If you’re new to the DEX scene, it will be beneficial to understand general AMMs such as #Uniswap works first. You should have a grasp on impermanent loss & it’s effects on liquidity providers. blog.bancor.network/beginners-guid…
Once you understand the general AMM system used by the most popular DEX’s today & the strengths and weaknesses of them, we can examine why $BNT offers an attractive model comparatively! Next up I will briefly discuss DEX aggregators.
blog.1inch.io/introducing-1i… I will also include this article from the 1inch blog highlighting their system. The current Marketcap is just under 1 billion and has been climbing fairly steadily over the past few months.
Note: although price doesn’t reflect a steady climb in value due to the release of additional tokens, the marketcap has continued upward pretty consistently. I don’t doubt $1inch’s success in the market as an aggregator, but I do question if the average user would benefit much-
From holding the token as an appreciating asset or passive income rewards. More on this here- blog.1inch.io/1inch-token-is… one should understand the value of aggregation when considering arbitrage, slippage, spread & probably front-running as well.
The prior concepts mentioned are likely easy enough to understand with a quick search, but to address front-running I will include a $Link covering why this is detrimental to not only traders, but Ethereum as a platform google.com/amp/s/blog.cha…
I would also be remiss to speak on aggregators without mentioning #OrionProtocol as well. Currently at 320M~ MC, they have recently released their public mainnet and are down about 47% from ATH. They have amassed significant partnerships with most of the current leading platforms
Such as: $Dot $eGLD $ADA $AVAX $BSC and I’m sure more will follow over time. To my knowledge, #Orion is the first aggregator to include centralized exchanges into its terminal, and also plans on bringing the first NFT aggregation to market.
As mentioned earlier, $ORN has worked hard to ensure users benefit from holding their token. Here is a link from their site detailing the revenues possible orionprotocol.io/orn & a calculator for prospective APY calc.orionprotocol.io
