Heard concerns about how Anchor will sustain ~20% yield during a bear market and whether yield reserve will deplete. A quick ๐Ÿงต

$ANC $LUNA

๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡
1/ First of all, the promise of Anchor is in the stabilized stable yield, not in the 20% itself.

The aim is to become the benchmark rate of Defi, and it doesn't necessarily have to be 20%.
2/ The long-term anchor rates can be algorithmically adjusted (currently static, set by gov), reflecting current market/protocol conditions, updating every long term period, like 6 months
3/ Underutilized UST in anchor could be deployed in safe yield generating capital markets like low IL pools, delta neutral strategies on @mirror_protocol, and so on, creating additional revenue for the protocol
4/ Vaults like @NexusProtocol and @neptune_finance (launch TBA) could boost borrower activity as they have built-in liquidation protection.
5/ New liquidation mechanism @TeamKujira, lowers liquidation premiums, reducing damage to borrowers in events of liquidations.
6/ Diversified collateral options like bSol, bDot, and bAtom incoming.

Increase of bluna apy(now >10%)
7/ TFL has deep pockets and could fund yield reserve as a last resort.

However, I think it won't be necessary considering the above points

Many dont know the difference between APR and APY, especially when it comes to defi. A simple ๐Ÿงต ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡
APR (annual percentage return) is the annual rate of return *not* taking into account effects of the compound of interest

APY(annual percentage yield) is the annual rate of return, taking into account the effects of the compound of interest.

APY>APR
It's better to calculate your returns on investment using APY, while APR is more common in lending

Eg, a yield farming program offers APR of 100%/yr. You deposit $1000. A year later you'll receive $2000, where $1000 is the initial capital and $1000 is APR

Let's talk about @NexusProtocol. Was a bit skeptical on the sustainability of its yield, but after some dd, I'm bullish af! ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡
What does Nexus do?

You deposit a basset like $bLuna or $bEth into a Nexus vault. In return, nexus gives you $nLuna or $nEth representing your share in the vault.

With your basset, nexus borrows $ust and manages LTV based on the activated mode

A thread ๐Ÿงต on @mars_protocol ๐Ÿ”ด and why it could be the biggest interstellar value unlocker for the wider crypto landscape and a ๐Ÿ’Ž for Terra

$mars $luna
Mars is a broader and more comprehensive companion to @anchor_protocol. While Anchor is limited to pos assets(yield generating) to ensure the sole focus of a fixed ~20% yield on deposits, Mars is more extensive in its offerings.
If you don't know how anchor works, I suggest this excellent thread by @FloodCapital
