Liquidity is the backbone of DeFi and we built @PopsicleFinance to make it simple for our users to manage and profit off of it. Here are some lessons we’ve learned and where we’re heading.
2/

We’ve launched two @PopsicleFinance products in the last 12 months: Sorbetto Fragola, a Uniswap v3 optimizer and Sorbetto Limone, a cross-DEX LP manager that provides leverage for LPers.
3/

Uni v3 is an exciting innovation but one that is overshadowed by the additional complexity that LPers face around setting LP ranges. Fragola fixes this. We use strategies to automatically optimize LP ranges that maximize your yield.

A deep dive 👇🏻:
4/

Last summer, new DEXs were popping up every week. As fragmentation grew, users had to manually move LP tokens from DEX to DEX to take advantage of farming incentives. Limone fixes this. Our contracts let us deploy user LP to the highest yielding DEX without any intervention.
5/

We want to double down on Fragola. Right now, its biggest weakness is PnL tracking. It’s difficult for users to break out gains and losses from IL, rewards, and swap fees. We need your help! If you know of an analyst who can help us track Fragola returns, drop a comment.
6/

Limone hasn’t yet found product-market fit and we’re continuing to experiment. DEXs are consolidating and farming opps have dwindled during the 🐻. We will continue to release new pools, but will begin focusing on new ideas and ways to make @PopsicleFinance stronger.
7/

Two ideas that have captured our attention: Just-in-time (JIT) LPing and Orderbook DEXs. These two products will be the topics of future threads, but let’s dive in briefly.

(if you don’t know about JIT, you should) coindesk.com/layer2/2022/02…
8/

The prototype for our JIT engine has already been developed, and we’ve been testing it for several months. Before pushing it to production we want to make sure everything is working as intended, but expect it SOON™.
9/

One of the most exciting parts about JIT is that it can be paired with Fragola range adjustments to further reduce IL. Doing so will help minimize trade slippage, which will ultimately boost Fragola performance. More APY!
10/

The Orderbook DEX is one of our long-term projects in stealth. We have been working on a new, innovative design that will allow users to have a completely chain-agnostic DEX, built on an order book model. We think this could revolutionize how we all trade crypto.
11/

Innovating is not easy, but we truly believe these new products will open a new chapter for @PopsicleFinance and our $ICE holders. We thank you all for your patience as we build #Isvikingers!

2022 is shaping up to be one of the most turbulent years for crypto and especially for DeFi.

Optimism across crypto has evaporated and trust is at an all-time low.
Despite all the chaos, $MIM has shown huge resiliency and has proven that our product works.

A 🧵 on $MIM👇🏻
2/

The price of the $MIM stablecoin is decided by the market and, most of the time, fluctuates slightly around its natural $1 peg.

The main $MIM market is currently the MIM-3crv pool on Curve finance, where $MIM is priced against 3crv tokens i.e $DAI, $USDC and $USDT.
3/

As people borrow $MIM and swap it for other stablecoins, the $MIM price will decrease relative to its natural $1 peg.

On the other hand, as people swap stablecoins into $MIM (to repay their loans), the $MIM price will increase.

1/ The launch of the yvDAI market is the beginning of something completely new, a radical shift of focus coming after many weeks of reflection. Taking a step back from social media has helped me taking a closer look into our products
2/ working on designing and building ones that are ready for the next phase of crypto: stabilisation . TVL has become a vanity metric and I've decided to let it be, the focus of every entrepreneur has to be on creating profit for the protocol and maximise the potential.
3/ The most important metric for me now is exclusively the interest earned per borrowed $MIM . If there is a circulation of 2B $MIM how much do $SPELL holders earn out of it? How much can we improve it? It is clear to me that we undersold many cauldrons

1/ The beginning of a new era of Leveraged Stablecoin Yield Farming is about to begin. Worked hard in the last weeks while everyone was thinking 'Dani is over' 'Them projects are dead' to deliver something that truly changes the game for the Frog
2/ So far all the good deals have been taken by whales, Stable Leveraged cauldrons especially, allowing them to get even more yield out of their massive amount of cash sitting. The new focus of my development is a strong direction towards the core values that brought me here
3/ Accessible Finance for everyone. Key component is to allow lower available capital to be able to earn like a much bigger one: introducing the brand new cauldrons with capped capacity per address and HUGE 40x + Leverage generating the best yields for small Frogs.

“So we made it all the way here” It has been a couple of hard months for me seeing all the work I have been doing for years has been getting ripped off by greed, FUD, misinformation and constant social/financial attacks across the board.
I have came to build to DeFi with one of the strongest motivations in the space, driven by the naive dream that people are capable of cooperating and that financial access should be a given, not a luxury.
What I’ve built so far is directed towards a future of hope and not darkness. Today more than ever this mission inside of me is strong as part of my family is directly impacted by the conflict in Ukraine.

Wonderland experiment is coming to an end. It is clear from the vote that the community is divided. The core and heart of Wonderland is still the community. If we cannot find agreement on wether to continue or not, it means that we failed.
2/
The duty of the Team is to enact the will of the token holders. As the vote is so close to 50/50 there is only one path forward, it is to reimburse / unwind who does not feel be part of Wonderland and find a new home for who feels attached & inline with the Frog Nation Vision.
3/
I do not agree about continuing this experiment, I am working with the team on a new proposal. I came out to this realisation because last night I’ve engaged with the community on Discord and for the first time I’ve seen a less toxic and more forward looking environment.

1/ Today allegations about our team member @0xSifu will circulate. I want everyone to know that I was aware of this and decided that the past of an individual doesn’t determine their future. I choose to value the time we spent together without knowing his past more than anything.
2/ Many people in the world are judged by their early mistakes, this comes prevalent into the life of ex inmates that can’t get access to financial services after being felons.
3/ One of the reasons why blockchain technology and DeFi is so powerful is that has no bias about your past. I have no bias about @0xSifu he has became a friend and part of my family and if my reputation of judgment will be hit by his dox, than be it. All frogs for me are equal.
