A 🧡 about @Moremoneyfi an interest-free loan platform on #Avalanche
1/8
An interest-free loan platform allows you to deposit a token as a collateral as guarantee of your solvency. You will then be able to borrow a stablecoin - $MONEY - against that collateral, up to a maximum defined by the Loan-to-Value (LTV)
2/8
When you take out a loan you generate a debt - 0.5% in the case of MoreMoney -, which is how the protocol generates revenue to sustain itself.
3/8
The beauty of @Moremoneyfi is that by depositing your collateral into their platform your asset will be deposited into @yieldyak_ generating yield and repaying your loans automatically
4/8
There are fundamentally two reasons why you want to use a platform like @Moremoneyfi :
1. Speculation: you are leveraging your asset and you’ll be able to use $MONEY to farm or buy assets you’re very bullish about to either trade at a later date or farm with them
5/8
2. Pay the bills: you need money to pay rent or a boat (why not πŸ˜‰) but you want to #HODL your #cryptocurrency ? With moremoney you can do exactly that. Borrow the amount of Money you need and you don’t even need to repay it, the protocol itself will!
6/8
What are the risks:
1. Liquidation: if the value of your collateral goes down too much that it won’t guarantee your solvency anymore
2. DePeg of $MONEY (if you farm with it): The value of their stablecoin might go below 1$, so if you’re holding it you will be losing money
7/8
..However, if you sold it for another asset, then repaying your debt will be even cheaper πŸ˜‰. $MONEY β€˜s peg is guaranteed by two mechanisms: having a collateral guaranteeing its value (everybody’s deposited collateral)..
8/8
..and having a big liquidity on @CurveFinance paired to major stablecoins.
3. Smart Contract exploit: As always in DeFi

A recurring question on @yieldyak_ is regarding APY calculations
I’ll explain first the difference between APR and APY and then why sometimes, even though you’re seeing lower APY on YY you’re actually getting higher return
2/6
APR is the return without compounding (so linear return)
APY is the return when compounded (this is how you get rich usually, since it grows exponentially).
That’s it, is that simple Image
3/6
Now, why we might show a lower APY and still giving you a higher return? Various reasons, but basically it all comes down to different methods of calculations.
Many platforms usually calculate APR/APY based on present value of farmed token, so if it spikes than APR will be..

There are >8M$ in the boosted @traderjoe_xyz AVAX/Stable farms right now, offering an APY of ~31-65% on @yieldyak_
Why do people offer liquidity in these pools? Aren’t they gonna suffer IL?
A 🧡 Image
2/7
As we all know IL is called like this because it gets realised only when you take out your liquidity. We all are very bullish about $AVAX and think that will moon at some point, but do we think it’s gonna do that in this market conditions? Likely not.
3/7
Right now it’s more likely to move sideways or go down rather than mooning. If it goes sideways you’re realising 31-65% APY on your $AVAX (instead of 7% with many SA strategies) and on your stable.
Let’s analyse the outcomes of this strategy:

Many users in @yieldyak_ community every now and then ask about gas fees. Those are determined by #Avalanche network. But why sometimes are higher than the others, and why the cost to interact to different strategies differ?
A 🧡:
2/6
Cost of gas fees, everytime you interact with the blockchain, depends basically on two parameters:
- Gas Cost
- Gas Limit Image
3/6
GAS COST (Max fee on @MetaMask )

It depends on network congestion, so how many people are using the network at the same time. On #Avalanche the minimum cost is 25 Gwei. So wait for times of less usage if this parameters is too high.

1/10 On #Avalanche there are around 10B $ in TVL in DeFi, but only around 500m $ are using an autocompounder like @yieldyak_
A 🧡 on what a yield optimiser is and what are the advantages and disadvantages of using a yield optimiser (i.e. why you should definitely use one πŸ˜‰):
2/10
Yield optimisers like yield yak autocompound farmed tokens making your return increasing exponentially.
So by depositing liquidity pool tokens into @yieldyak_, the platform will sell those farmed $JOE tokens for you and buy more of the liquidity token and stake for you…
3/10
..this converts a simple interest into a compounded interest (which increases exponentially). So if simply farming $MORE - $AVAX is 141% APR with @traderjoe_xyz, by using an autocompounder that return will grow exponentially giving you an APY of 308%. Not bad, right?!..
