What is the #DefrostV2? A thread 😎

The Defrost V2 is a new-generation decentralized leverage trading protocol on #Avalanche 🔥

You can:

💱 Trade major crypto assets on leverage

💵 Contribute their assets in lending pools powered by #SuperVaults to earn yields
2/7

Leveraged trading refers to borrowing assets to long or short #crypto 📚

👏 This allows traders to use greater capital with relatively little underlying funds, amplifying results

🚨 Traders can realize bigger profits when successful, but also suffer larger losses
3/7

The super vaults 🚀

👉 To power traders' leverages, Defrost uses special #supervaults that collect yields from third-party platforms

👉 When users deposit tokens, the super vault collects fees & rewards from the interoperated platform associated with that specific pool
4/7

👀 When traders open positions, assets are withdrawn from yielding positions & lent

💵 This entails higher returns for LPs, as the rewards from trading are higher than those from other protocols

💰 Thus, super vaults provide a clear base APY which only grows with trading
5/7

✔️ Positions in the super vaults are tokenized, accruing interest & rewards from third parties

✔️ Tokenized positions are called Lending Switch tokens, meaning the protocols for basic rewards can be switched if one's yield is higher

✔️ The rate for borrowers is constant

On leverage 💹

👏 The #DefrostV2 relies on liquidity pools from @TraderJoe

🌊 These well-established pools already powering spot trades underpin the leveraging mechanism

👌 Trades are made on partner exchanges, helping to smoothly bootstrap liquidity, with lower slippage
7/7

Safety first 🔐

🔎 The leverage trading contracts have been audited by @CertiK

🗝️ Centralization issues have been dealt with by using a multi-signature controlling account with five keyholders

🧑‍🏭 No contract in #DefrostFinance can be upgraded

❄️ Time for a FAQ thread ahead of our launch ❄️

1) What is #DefrostFinance?

📢 Defrost Finance (defrost.finance) is a decentralized protocol that allows you to leverage LP tokens & other pool tokens from @avalancheavax as collaterals for generating the $H2O #stablecoin
2) Why would you want to mint H2O?

📢 Because:

🪙 It gives you extra rewards on your LPs

💵 You get a #stablecoin you can use to invest elsewhere

🤑 You receive $MELT

💎 You get to re-stake both $MELT and $H2O in other pools (coming soon!). That means even more rewards.
3) What is $MELT?

📢 Melt is #Defrost's governance token.

You can use it to ⬇️

💰 Access profitable staking opportunities
