S02E02 - Yield cluster at @nebula_protocol

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?

@nebula_protocol and @prism_protocol might help with it.

/2
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.

What would that look like?

/3
I imagine that “safe” portfolio would be made of:
- $aUST
- $LUNA, $SCRT, $ATOM (for the staking APR)
- various LP tokens

… and perhaps some other yield-bearing tokens. Anything that is has somewhat low volatility and provides a cashflow to live off.

/4
I could manage that portfolio myself, but… do I need to?

How about creating a cluster on @nebula_protocol that would contain the above tokens in certain proportions?

I could just sprinkle $UST into it, and just claim rewards every month - a self-paid salary, if you will.

/5
@prism_protocol can make that even better.

If the cashflow is all I need, the “non-yield-bearing” part of the token is unnecessary. I won’t say “useless”, but simply not needed in this scenario.

@prism_protocol will allow us to remove that part, keeping just the cashflow.

/6
All of that in the spirit of making the best use of your capital.

As I have explained in S01E03, the price of $yLUNA-perp, assuming 10% staking APR should float around 0.59 $LUNA.

That’s 0.41 $LUNA we could turn into cashslow.



/7
Swapping $pLUNA into $yLUNA will give me another 10% * 0.41 / 0.59 = 6.94% APR.

That just turned my $LUNA staking rewards from 10% to almost 17% (+airdrops…).

That was at the cost of price action, but once I make it, I would not need to make it again, right?

/8
Replicate the same for $ATOM, $SCRT, $DOT …

Add some $aUST or $oaUST...

… and you end up with a well-diversified portfolio that is (a) cashflow-heavy, (b) provides a reasonably stable cashflow, (c) still has an upside potential, as staking rewards scale with asset price.

/9
With all of that embedded into @nebula, we get a formula I would be quite willing to use to fund my crypto-retirement.

Or, share that with frens and family outside CT as a way to gain/retain FI with the smart use of crypto.

/10
Please let me know if you enjoyed the episode - I appreciate the feedback and try to improve my game in sharing knowledge in approachable and easy-to-understand way.

Quick thread on "Crypto never sleeps".

🧵👇

/1
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
While (1) is certainly true, (2)-(4) not so much.

Just think about it - there are hundreds of project launching just on @terra_money, similar on other chains: @harmonyprotocol, @avalancheavax, @FantomFDN, @kadena_io,...

There is no way anyone can cover such breadth alone.

S02E01 - @pylon_protocol capital efficiency

Yay! We made it to the 2nd seasons!

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)

S01 - Extra #1 - fixed-term refraction

$yLUNA and $pLUNA were the stars of season 1 so far. Let's change that, as we will need more... much more for season 2.

Starting with: (fixed)-term refraction.

/1
$yLUNA and $pLUNA are so-colled perpetuals: $yLUNA represents all the yield going until perpetuity (=end of all time).

This doesn't need to be the case. People don't live that long anyway, right?

@prism_protocol will allow for shorter terms as well, e.g. 3/6/9/12 months.

/2
Let's take a look at 3 months version of refracted $LUNA and call it $yLUNA-3m and $pLUNA-3m for the time being.

$yLUNA-3m = all staking rewards and airdrops (SRaA) in the next 3 months
$pLUNA-3m = $LUNA price action in the next 3 months

S01E06 - What can I do with $pLUNA?

Today I will explain some uses of $pLUNA - some of them combined with $yLUNA, still simple.
Crazy stuff in S02. 🤫

Similarly to $pLUNA, most of below is based on PRISM Protocol litepaper:
prismfinance.app/PRISM-litepape…

/1 ImageImage
[1] Stake $pLUNA in @prism_protocol and exercise your voting rights.

Even after splitting $LUNA, you will retain the ability to vote in Terra Station through PRISM as a proxy - have a vote in each of the polls.

Maybe not-so-exciting, but oh-so-important for the ecosystem.

/2
[2] Lend out your $pLUNA

So you're already staking your $yLUNA with Prism and getting staking rewards, airdrops and $PRISM incentives... and it's still not enough for you?

Well, just lend your $pLUNA out on a money-market protocol, e.g. with @mars_protocol.

Extra APR!

S01E05 - What can I do with yLUNA?

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 ImageImage
[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...

S01E04 - pLUNA-perp pricing

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.
