Abracadabra Money's $SPELL token has TANKED over the last couple of weeks.
But maybe things are a lot more bullish than they seem...
Here's how the brand new analytics available on the Abracadabra Money Dashboard tell us we're overdue for a pump:
I think the most direct way to value $SPELL is its cash flows: it's unique in that just about every cent from borrowing activity gets paid out to stakers.
The past 6 weeks have produced an average of $2.33 mm/week. That's about $120 million in yearly revenue.
And that revenue doesn't cost anything. No marketing, no COGS, no interest expense.
Thus, we can value it more or less as pure earnings.
Below are some comps with P/Es that show how $SPELL is very undervalued. Note Maker DAO for an analogous crypto.
And those projections are reflecting past revenue, which shows that things could improve a lot given growth.
At a minimum, we're a 2x away from any type of REMOTELY fair valuation.
But P/E is a bit clunky for valuing cryptos-what if we looked at something a bit more precise?
Maybe Total Value Locked?
Well $SPELL's TVL is down about 12% while token price is down 55%.
WHAT!?
So TVL is a couple $MIM replenishments away from an ATH while TVL/Market Cap is at an all-time low.
And you're BEARISH, anon?
Many investors view a Market Cap/TVL ratio of under 1 as undervalued.
SPELL's TVL/MC is under .3
If that ratio got up to 1 on a static TVL, it'd be a hair away from a 4x from today's price.

The technical analysis paints a slightly more bearish picture.
We smashed through potential support at about 2.5 cents, then fought with 2 cents but ended up busting through.
We'll have to fight through that resistance again to come out the other side.
But I love this token because of its fundamentals, not its technicals.
Yield-bearing tokens have continued to be the biggest revenue driver from the protocol, as you can see below. That's good for stability and long-term loan health.
The $SHIB cauldron was largely a bust.
Which means the brand new degenbox strategy on $UST will probably be an insane driver of new protocol revenue.
I'm more bullish on the original thesis (yield-bearing assets) than trying to maximize meme-coin cauldrons.
If you're a $SPELL holder and follow byebyedai.money, you might have noticed that fees have dropped heavily over the last 7 days.
But that could be good for $SPELL in the long term: here's how @danielesesta used smart tokenomics to create a downward-resistant protocol👇
$SPELL, for now, generates fees for stakers of sSpell via three mechanisms:
• Position opening
• Position closing (liquidation)
• Interest on debt position
Unlike other forms of debt, you can pay your interest on your $MIM ( $SPELL's stablecoin ) position all at once:
1. Lock up your collateral for $MIM 2. Your collateral accrues interest 3. You repay all of the debt plus the interest 4. Interest is distributed to sSpell stakers

I first came across the rumor on Twitter.
It originated from an update video from $COTI founder @shahafbg.
Quote: "as our integration to a major enterprise continues, I really look forward to letting you know who that enterprise is, when it's done, I will let you know."
People took him to be hinting at COTI launching a stablecoin with FB, so I decided to take a look.
