🚨BEST BTC YIELDS/OPPORTUNITIES ISSUE #2🚨

As always, bookmark this so you don't lose itImage
1) @build_on_bob🤝@eulerfinance

TL;DR
⇒ 34-67% APR Organic (+Points)
⇒ >100% APR w/ Incentives

BOB is a BTC-centric EVM superchain. More importantly, they're running an incentives campaign.

You can find most of the incentives on @merkl_xyz.

Anywho, RIGHT NOW you can loop BTC derivates for over 100% APR.

BUT THERE ARE A FEW IMPORTANT POINTS TO MAKE:

1) Slippage matters. I do NOT recommend auto-leveraging through illiquid markets. You can get rekt.

2) Some of the incentives are in rEUL which has a vesting mechanism.

3) Unwinding can also wreck you if you do it automatically, I recommend manually doing it.

FINALLY, the LBTC markets, with over $12,000,000 BTC to borrow are 34% APR and 67% APR respectively.

PLUS POINTS. These are the best @Lombard_Finance opportunities out there, hands down.Image
2) @SolvProtocol solv.BTC.BNB

Solv has a new BTC derivative that allows you to participate in Binance Launchpad opportunities or staking yield with you BTC.

On top of that, you get points:
► @lista_dao
► @AstherusHub
► @kernel_dao
► @SolvProtocol (s2)

This allows for a 5-10% native yield on a BTC derivative, and a speculative play on the underlying protocol points.

I hope it also gets some composability!Image
3) @MorphoLabs🤝@Contango_xyz🤝@pendle_fi

With a whopping 8.5 BTC principle to deploy into this, pendle PTs strike again.

Expiry: May 29th
Max Yield: 23.1%
Leverage: 9.27x
Oracle: Pendle AMM

This is on @base and an incredibly attractive yield for the Base airdrop speculator who's also a BTC maximalist.Image
4) cbBTC on @KaminoFinance

Currently, Kamino has an 300K/mo incentives package specifically to borrow USDC against cbBTC.

That means the net cost to borrow stables against cbBTC is roughly 2%.

WHICH MEANS, if you can get a yield higher than 2%, you can get a positive yield on your cbBTC collateral.

EXAMPLE:
1) Collateralize $100,000 cbBTC
2) Borrow $50,000 USDC
3) Bridge to Base
4) Loop sUSDS / USDS on @growcompound for 27%

RESULT:
➢ 12.5% net LTV
➢ $51K BTC liquidation level
➢ Potential Base Airdrop participationImage
5) Liquidity Plays

This one is sneaky. It's the liquidBeraBTC BOYCO vault receipt token.

It's depegged by 1% because you can't redeem it until Boyco ends.

Here, you can see 70K 7-Day volume through 130-Day Liquidity.

That annualizes to 30% APR.

The caveat, of course, is that you'd have to either put buy-side liquidity in WBTC and wait for more sell pressure to enter, or buy some liquidBeraBTC from this 1% fee tier to enter, which may eat the later gains.

This is NOT for the greenhorn yield farmer.Image
Those are my top 5

BTC is notoriously difficult to find yields on. Nevertheless, I hope you found this useful.

If there are any obvious BTC yields that I missed, PLEASE LET ME KNOW in the comments below.

Ambassadorships Mentioned:
► Solv
► Compound
► Euler
► Kamino
► Contango
► Pendle

I've been on my precious metals grind for the past few months and have been neglecting my roots.

No longer.

🚨THE STABLECOIN AWARDS JAN 2026🚨

I'm awarding strategies for highest yield, risk adjustedness, anticipated airdrop, & other yieldy categories.

See the winners🧵👇Image
🏆HIGHEST BASE YIELD

Now remember, high yield means HIGH RISK.

🥇 @OuroborosCap8 yzPP: 59% APY (Junior Tranche)
🥈 @OstiumLabs OLP: 53.6% (Counter Party Vault)
🥉 @avantprotocol avUSDx: 21% (Junior Tranche)

What is particularly interesting is how risk premium is being allocated.

Avant gives 10% risk premium to its junior, Yuzu gives 15%.

Ostium also gives additional fee compensation when <100% CR.Image
🏆MOST RISK ADJUSTED STRATEGIES

🥇 @aave 🤝 @ethena_labs "Aavethena" (10-18%)
🥈 @dolomite USD1 lending (10%)
🥉 @upshift_fi earnAUSD on @monad (11%)

Note: While I really like earnAUSD because @withAUSD makes a great stable, the vault is now participating in a wide variety of strategies and does take on substantially more risk than simply holding or lending AUSD.Image

Anyone remember when you could get over 30% fixed rate APR on ETH because of the LRT points craze?

Good times. Now the yields are harder to farm, but they're still out there.

Let's take a look at the current best ETH yields out there.

🧵👇Image
1) @summerfinance_: 8-20% APR

$SUMR will be live within the next three weeks. That means these additionaladditionaladditional incentive APRs are much more tangible now than ever before.

➢ 20% Net on Base
➢ 21% Net on ETH

Now, I have the FDV assumption for SUMR set at 150M, but even at 50M, that would be 8% net for ETH, which is fairly decent.Image
2) @GearboxProtocol: 19% APR

NOW, it's important to note here that ETH+ (@reserveprotocol) is incentivizing this at the moment, which makes it so positive.

AND that the incentives officially end on the 16th.

BUT I know there is a big push to get these incentives extended, which is what I would use to justify jumping into this if I did.

In short, this is leveraged ETH+ which is basically an index of staked ETH, leveraged on GB >10x.Image

For those wondering, here are some of the best @monad yields to farm while they run incentives:

Almost all of the yields are on @merkl_xyz but a few aren't -- and even the ones that are need a bit of context.

🧵👇Image
The first thing to realize is that the Monad campaign is much smaller than, say, @Plasma, though also substantially less farmed than Plasma.

It's also larger than @arbitrum DRIP (another solid campaign).

There's $65K going to $123M TVL daily on Monad
That's 19% average APR for the whole chain's TVL

There's $235K going to $4.8b daily on Plasma
That's 1.79% average APR for the whole chain's TVL

Monad is theoretically much better in that sense.Image
First, stablecoin plays.

There are a couple noteworthy, all having to do with @withAUSD.

1) Depositing into @upshift_fi's earnAUSD: 21% APR
2) LPing AUSD/earnAUSD on Uni V4: 50% APR
3) Various Lending on Morpho: 7-10% APR
4) AUSD/UST0 Uni V4: 21%
5) AUSD/USDC/USDT0 Curve: 13%

Note: don't trust Merkl to be up to date with actual TVL numers. The AUSD/earnAUSD says it's 150K TVL but it's really $750K TVL, so instead of 340% APR, you're getting ~70%.Image

Can't stop, won't stop.

🚨TOP FIVE 20%+ APY STABLE FARMS🚨

CBB has some size, so I'll try to find some good ones.

🧵👇Image
1) @reservoir_xyz wsrUSD/USDC loop on @MorphoLabs

► 8.25% APY collateral yield
► 6.81% APY borrow cost
► 17.64M to borrow

= 21.21% Net (+ s2 points) Image
2) @maplefinance on @arbitrum (DRIP farming)

► 6.73% APY collateral yield
► 5.2% APY borrow cost
► 18.57M to borrow

= 20.5% Net (+ drips) Image

Crypto is out, Gold is in🪙

🚨BEST GOLD YIELD GUIDE EVER MADE🚨

I'm only half-joking. But definitely bookmark.

🧵👇Image
Gold is difficult to get a native yield on. Virtually all gold yields involve collateralizing a gold derivative and farming against borrowed stables.

That said, you can deposit smart XAUT/PAXG collateral on @0xfluid for ~4.5%

Next, we'll look at where to borrow against Gold...Image
1) @MorphoLabs

I love morpho and am currently using it for my own gold farming.

Pros:
⇒ Highest LLTV at 77%
⇒ 5% borrow cost
⇒ Only large EVM market with both PAXG and XAUT

Cons:
➢ Thin liquidity compared to Aave
➢ Isolated margin (could be a pro?)Image

Comparing Lend Aggregators

Lend aggregators are one of my favorite yield sources specifically because they allow a user to:
⇒ get yields with no IL
⇒ remain fully liquid
⇒ remain unleveraged

..and sometimes farm points

SO, let's look at the best out there and compare
🧵👇Image
1) @summerfinance_

SummerFi "Lower Risk" vaults do lend aggregation, tapping into an AI-driven optimization mechanism, currently the beneficiary of @arbitrum's DRIP campaign.

APR: 11.7% + $SUMR

For more $SUMR:
summer.fi/earn?referralC…Image
2) @Almanak__

Almanak is another soon-to-be AI-driven yield aggregator which is currently operating as a lend-agg.

It's primarily exposed to Morpho and Fluid at the moment, and because of its S1 points, has an IY of 24% on @pendle_fi.

Organic APR: 10.26%Image
