Pretty much all of the episodes will be focused on various partnerships Prism Protocol can get into to bring value to #LUNAtics.
Buckle up!
/1
How the pools on @pylon_protocol work: (1) You deposit $UST (2) Pylon deposits $UST to @anchor_protocol (3) Yield is redirected to: $MINE buybacks (10%), dev team (90%)
/2
(4) Dev team supplies their token into the pool (5) Pool distributes tokens at a stead rate per minute (6) You can collect your tokens as defined in the pool (that might vary) (7) You get your $UST back once the pool reaches maturity (6/12/18 months / whatever)
/3
Ad. (1) Imagine all the things you could do with your $UST when it wasn't locked up in the pool.
19.5% with ⚓️
30-40% with delta-neutral farming
10-40x with a good IDO ( $PSI anyone?)
Farm $APOLLO at the last 2 weeks of CFE?
...
Is the price you pay = lost opportunity.
/4
Ad. (7) That's the moment when "missed opportunity" window closes. You get your $UST back, you do your thing with it.
But... does it have to be that way? I mean: it's only the yield on $UST / $aUST that the dev team and @pylon_protocol need after all...
/5
Enter: fixed-term refraction of $aUST.
Instead of putting $UST into the 12m-pool, just refract $aUST into $yaUST-12m and $paUST-12m.
$yaUST-12m reflects 12 months of⚓️ yield on your UST -> only that is used by the pools on @pylon_protocol.
You can keep your $paUST-12m!
/6
You can sell your $paUST-12m and get some $UST back.
You can wait 12 months - by that time all yield from $yaUST-12m was paid out and it's value is $0.00.
That means:
$paUST-12m becomes $aUST
(Well, you will still have to swap 1:1).
/7
Alternative: buy some $yaUST on the market. Pay a fixed price to get into the pool without having to remember to collect your unlocked $UST (after 12-18 months, one might need a really good memory)...
/8
But ser, does buying $yaUST really makes any sense?
If you've read my previous 🧵on fixed-term refractions of $aUST (link below), you might have noticed the pricing of $yaUST in various fixed-term variants.
Instead of locking 1 $UST for 6m/12m/18m, you can pay 0.096 / 0.184 / 0.302 $UST to buy $yaUST-6/12/18m and swap it for a stream of new tokens.
/10
Enter the pool at 9.6% / 18.4% / 30.2% of the original price.
Yes, you won't get that $yaUST back - that's for sure. You keep the vast majority of your money in your pocket though, decreasing the cost of lost opportunity.
We tend to fall into a certain thinking pattern(s):
(1) Crypto never sleeps (2) I need to be connected 24/7 (3) Staying on top of all the developments is a must (4) I want/have_to know about every project there is
/2
Today we will look at possible partnership between Nebula Protocol and Prism Protocol, that would provide a pretty decent option for a passive income.
/1
We all hope WAGMI. We write it on CT, we encourage one another as fellow #LUNAtics - and for good reasons. The spirit of community thrives.
But ser, what are we gonna do, once we finally make it?
Not sure about you, but once I make it, I will move a significant portion of my portfolio to a ‘safe haven’ - @anchor_protocol-Earn-like where I can enjoy 20-30% APR, which would allow me and my family not to worry about 💰 anymore.
Today, we will look into some (rudimentary) use cases and strategies using $yLUNA.
$pLUNA might sneak here or there, but in general, I will leave its story until the next episode.
/1
Almost entirety of what you'll read in a moment is based on PRISM Protocol litepaper, available here: prismfinance.app/PRISM-litepape…
In particular, on 2 pictures below.
/2
[1] Stake your $yLUNA with @prism_protocol - this way you will keep all staking rewards *and* airdrops to $LUNA stakers, with no slashing risk and no unstaking period.
Pretty darn cool, if you ask me. No more 21 days of wait to undelegate your $LUNA and use it elsewhere...
/3
Now that we have tools to price $yLUNA, we can shift the focus to $pLUNA.
As I will try to explain pricing them both tandem will be a bit like chess - easy to learn, hard to master.
/1
The foundation for our pricing will be these 2 simple rules. You can always: 1) Split 1 $cLUNA (=1 $LUNA) into 1 $pLUNa and 1 $yLUNA 2) Provide 1 $pLUNa and 1 $yLUNA back to @prism_protocol and get 1 $cLUNA (= $LUNA) back.
In other words:
$LUNA <=> $pLUNA + $yLUNA
/2
With this, the formula for $pLUNA boils down to:
$pLUNA = $LUNA - $yLUNA
Simple, right? Well, only on the surface, unfortunately.
