NEW LAUNCH: @SushiSwap LP Tokens

With this initiative, the future swap fees of Sushi LPs can now be traded!
Captain PePendle has also found (Pe,P) - find out more below. 👇
The 2 initial @SushiSwap pools will be live on 19th Aug GMT 00:00

1️⃣ PENDLE/ETH LP tokens
2️⃣ ETH/USDC LP tokens
As swap fees are directly impacted by trading volume, traders can now speculate on the underlying trading activity or use it as a proxy for volatility.
Quick refresher: Pendle splits yield-bearing tokens into 2 components, YT (yield token) and OT (ownership token).

For SLP tokens, YT holders receive the swap fees of the underlying pool with negligible IL risk.

OT holders own the underlying assets and take on the IL risk.
Traditionally, fees surge in times of high volatility, & liquidity providers take the greatest IL risk.

Traders anticipating high volatility can purchase YT to receive swap fees with negligible IL risk while retaining the flexibility to exit their YT position anytime.
Existing SLP holders can lock in their future swap fee yield by selling YT.

The capital is received immediately and can be redeployed elsewhere.
Sushi LPs can also hedge against IL by selling OT while still receiving the swap fees by holding YT. They can re-enter their OT position anytime when they think IL risk has subsided.

Congratulations on making it this far!

We’re pleased to share (Pe,P) - inspired by our friends across the metaverse @OlympusDAO and enabled by SLP tokenization, (Pe,P) is the first offering we have for long-term Pendle holders to contribute to the protocol and be rewarded.
(Pe,P) achieves 3 things:

1️⃣Continually incentivizes deeper $PENDLE liquidity
2️⃣Provides useful liquidity to the Pendle protocol
3️⃣Rewards those with the most skin in the game

Locking Yield Case Study (Update)
Our first case study on hedging yield received some attention from those new to DeFi.

Credits to @AutomataEmily and @SamuelShadrach4 for the explanation on crypto inherent risks beyond price. We have updated the piece to reflect those. 👇
Pendle is a new protocol and using it assumes the risk of Pendle smart contracts.

We are built on top of other protocols such as Aave and Compound, and users assume their smart contract risk too.

Those unfamiliar with such risks should NOT use Pendle.
On to the case study:

A Pendle user locked-in yield on $300k worth of aUSDC and cDAI, receiving a return of 54.5k USDC (18%). This USDC was immediately available in his wallet.

Risk is a nuanced topic, so let's run down the list of possible risks a user would be exposed to in our previously mentioned strategy.
Price Risk
1. Using a and c tokens as the base denomination, the user is taking 0 price risk.
2. This is what we refer to when describing the strategy as no risk.
3. Regardless of market volatility, the returns have been fixed in aUSDC and cDAI terms. There is no price risk.
Smart Contract Risk
1. User takes smart contract risk of Pendle .
2. As a holder of a and c tokens, user takes smart contract risk of the underlying protocols.
3. This applies to any future protocol integrations.

Users uncomfortable with this should NOT use the protocol.

We’re live in 12 hours! We hope you’re as excited as we are :)

To help you ease into the system, we have created 2 cheatsheets for Ownership Token (OT) and Yield Token (YT), both of which are key components of Pendle.
Deposit a yield-generating token into Pendle to mint YT and OT.

At launch, @AaveAave‘s aUSDC and @compoundfinance’s cDAI will be supported.
YT represents the right to receive yield from the underlying.
Buy YT for direct yield exposure, sell YT to cash in your yield for an upfront payment.
