2/ Once you deposited $DAI on @iearnfinance, you should have $yvDAI in the wallet. This is called a yield bearing token: it's a token that doesn't have any value, but represents your share of a pool where your assets are earning yields and rewards are automatically compounded.
3/ With $yvDAI go to @QiDaoProtocol and create Yearn DAI Vault. You can borrow interest free #MAI with 110% CDR
4/ Now let's do some math. Yearn is offering 25% on #DAI and let's keep 115% CDR to be on a safe side.
5/ So, 150% APY after 10 loops on stables with minimum risk of liquidation isn't bad, yeah? But let's talk about the cons:
6/ First of all you will require to make the loops manually, where you have to deposit $DAI, get $yvDAI, borrow $MAI, swap $MAI for $DAI and repeat every time.
7/ Another thing is that 25% APY on Yearn is not stable, but even at 10% APY you'll get 60% after 10 loops. Still very decent.
8/ If you want to repay your debt on @QiDaoProtocol you have to unloop the whole thing or to close the debt with money from the other source. There is no way to repay the debt with your collateral.
9/ And as everywhere there are risks associated with smart contracts, etc. So as I always say you have to allocate only as much as you can afford to lose.
10/ $yvDAI is not the only option to leverage your stables on @QiDaoProtocol. You can leverage your @beefyfinance position.
11/ But as for now CDR is 135% and APY on Beefy is 13%, so it is less attractive way to leverage your stables, but still you can get almost 50% APY in 10 loops.
12/ The process to leverage is the same except you need to deposit your $DAI to @beefyfinance to the @Screamdotsh farm, after that you get mooScreamDai receipt token against which you can borrow $MAI.
13/ And the most difficult part is to get $MAI available to borrow. All the available liquidity get snipped very fast, but you can follow @QiDaoProtocol as they are announcing debt ceiling increase beforehand.
14/ Above 2 options were on $Fantom, now let's see what do we have on #Polygon.
15/ I won't describe everything in details, you must have got the point by now. You can leverage your @StakeDAOHQ and @AaveAave tokens. Approximate APY after 10 loops is 37% and 24% rescpectively.
16/ I expect that CDR for all stable coin vaults will be lowered to 110% so you'll be able to borrow more and increase APY.
17/ In this thread I've described just a little part of endless strategies wich you can execute with @QiDaoProtocol. In the future I'll explain how to get paid to borrow and leverage your crypto assets which is very beneficial during bull market.

My first project/strategy overview will be @Defrost_Finance as it is still quite early and APR is quite high as of now.
🧵
1) You can add liquidity to @CurveFinance DefrostH2O3CRV-f ($H2O is a stable coin of the @Defrost_Finance protocol) pool and stake it for 100% APR, receiving $MELT as a reward.
2) You can boost APR up to 400% by stacking $MELT for $sMELT. Your melt stacking is receiving another 100% APR.
I decided to start a Twitter account as I saw how popular and demanding DeFi is right now. I see plenty influencers are promoting unsafe recommendations for people who might not know the basic market principals.
My strategy is based mostly (80-90%) on stable coins and delta neutral farms with little exposure (10-20%) to volatile assets. This strategy keeps my initial funds safe from depreciation and still let me get 50%+ APR.
Just want to explain very basic thing that when you buy a crypto you hope that somebody else will buy it for a higher price. Money are not coming from nowhere, but someone has to literally give it to you.
Security is a first priority. Few major points before you start a phenomenal DeFi journey are:
🧵
1. Use hardware wallet(s) such as @ledger for your funds. As soon as you have 5-10k $ of assets it is a must to secure your money with HW wallet. Seed phrase should never be stored on your digital device or shared with anyone.
2. Diversification is the way to safe your assets. No matter how much you trust the project you should invest only as much as you can afford to lose. Even well secured and audited protocols got exploited or rugged in the past and will be in the future.
