TLDR 90% of raised liq -> .98 - 1 concentrated liq range -> thrown into boxFEE backing wen fully in x (boxETH), whilst boxETH minters utilize this deep liq to generate their own ranges (prob above respective boxETH resolve price, 1), while the other 10% -> .9 - 1 range as POL
šŸ§µ As such, the effective boxFEE ā€œbackingā€ @ t(0) will be a min of .88 - .89 assuming boxETH = 1 ETH (depending on net div loss from concentrated LP)

Naturally, protocol fees to boxFEE hodlers (resolve fees, % of stETH yield, POL, etc) will accrue in the form of boxETH backing

Ayy looks like the $cvxCRV/CRV pool is finally migrating to v2 lfg Image This makes me wonder ā€” wat feed have money mkts/CDPs (Rari/Abra iirc) been using to price $cvxCRV all this time?

Oke last time I talk abt UwUlend for a while, tho imo thereā€™s systemic risk w the bLUSD mkt given oracle price = floor price

In the event that bLUSD mkt premium >10% (90% LTV for stables on UwU), users can borrow bLUSD -> swap thru LP -> val of debt net worth more than collat
šŸ§µ So, for example, say bLUSD floor = 1.1 & mkt price = 1.3.

User deposits 1000 USDC -> borrows 818.18 bLUSD (90% LTV) -> swaps 818.18 bLUSD for 1063 USDC (not including swap/gas costs) -> runs away with debt and/or repeats process

Incredibly overhyped

The premise is to essentially JIT their own LP rebalances (thereby saving on slip), however (once again), for JIT to be net profitable, fees accrued > LP position delta change + flashloan cost if applicable + batched txn gas costā€¦
popsiclefinance.medium.com/popsicle-jit-eā€¦
šŸ§µ In the event that a respective ā€œJIT rebalanceā€ is realized to be net profitable amongst the MEV/JIT community - congrats, youā€™ve got competition (2-3% of fees atm)

If not, and theyā€™re JITing for the sole purpose of net lower rebalancing costs at the expense of unprofitable JITā€¦

If u thought Sifu FULLY controlling the $SIFU oracle & borrowing w 70% LTV was badā€¦

Turns out thereā€™s another yet-to-launch ā€œplaceholderā€ Sifu-native tkn called SifuM, of which Sifu HARDCODED TO $10 WHILST CONTROLLING 500k TKNS -> used as collat to borrow USDT w 70% LTV LMFAOO Btw if u wanna see some hilariously brainwashed ppl, check out the uWuLend discord

Utter word salad from Daniele

What he fails to realize is that MEV bots CURRENTLY perform JIT on stable-stable V3 pools whenever economical (ie if fees accrued > LP position delta change + batched txn gas cost)

Given majority of V3 stable volume flows thru .01% poolsā€¦
šŸ§µšŸ‘‡ If he/Popsicle were to enter the JIT game rn in an attempt to siphon fees off stable LPers -> disincentivize V3 liquidity provision -> Curve stableswap mkt shareā¬†ļø, theyā€™d be in the same position as other MEV bots rn (JIT wen economical) ā€” nothing to FURTHER increase JIT

Ummā€¦what??

Vires Finance has a 40% liq fee/bonus & 75% liq threshold for ETH + 50% liq fee/bonus & 65% liq threshold for BTCā€¦šŸ˜­

Doesnā€™t this make liquidations w ETH/BTC as collat impossible, given the net amnt of debt repayed vs collat lost results in LTV above threshold??
šŸ§µ For example, say we have $100 of ETH collat & >$75 of x debt, thus position eligible for liquidation (liq threshold = 75%)

Given max 50% of the debt within an account can be repayed (like Aave), say a liquidator payed off $37.5 worth of debt (50%)

Lotta good yield opps w @Balancer weighted multi-tkn LPs atm, so thought it would be a gud idea to breakdown how impermanent loss (IL)/rebalancing *actually* occurs within a specific pool

(Math below + IL calc @ end of thread)šŸ§µšŸ‘‡ First of all, unlike traditional x*y=k AMMs (where thereā€˜s obvs only two (ever-rebalancing) assets in the pool), we calculate the invariant V by multiplying LP asset balances relative to their weight in the LP, according to the function below: Image

Canā€™t we j accept UniV3 LPing as a new financial primitive that provides customizable, ever-accruing amplified short gamma & long IV properties (as well as potential avg-out limit orders whilst earning fees/not paying slip & fees) + concentrated swap liq for traders? When ppl say ā€œUniV3 LPers consistently lose moneyā€, u need to understand that (assuming no rebalancing, which yes, I agree is a grey area) LPs have a ā€œpermanentā€payoff according to their tick range.

Woah, Aave lowkey freezing a whole bunch of V2 Mainnet mkts in a few mins, most notably CRV, sUSD, LUSD & GUSD Image (No, Aave isnā€™t a ā€œworthless protocol thatā€™ll go to zeroā€ lmao)

Continuously borrow substantial amnts of CRV w USDC collat, pushing U up + high LTV -> dump borrowed CRV, pushing price down -> attempt to liquidate whale @ .26/CRV, whom currently makes up 90% of CRV supplied -> bad debt accrual/CRV damps further -> Avraham profit?? @avi_eisen this u

The new & improved @sentimentxyz lend/borrow rate model + 80% origination fee reduction is now live!

Some (v lowkey) juicy arb/yield opps have spawnedšŸ‘€

Letā€™s take a mathematical dive into the new rate model, as well as uncover some potential lucrative current yield strats šŸ§µšŸ‘‡ Okeā€¦so what did the rate model look like before?
Y r borrow rates so cheap atm?

Well, you see, rates used to follow a pretty hefty non-linear model, thus causing most (currently available) yield strategies to be uneconomical w the slightest bit of mkt utilizationā€¦ Image

Amazing how many low IQ takes are coming from this, so let me break it down for u:

1945 = the year Hitler was found/blew himself up/end of Holocaust & WW2

Hitler = piece of shit
Hitler = vegetarian

SBF = also a piece of shit
SBF = also a vegetarian In other words, what heā€™s (obvs) implying is that SBF/Hitler being vegetarians (or any extremely irrelevant ā€œbeliefā€ for that matter) had absolutely nothing to do with the underlying motive/outcome, thus we shouldnā€™t group it as such (drugs are obvs a diff story)

Fun fact - users w 8:1 risk:hedge ratio in @y2kfinance $MIM vaults are automatically receiving a positive ROI regardless of depeg ā€” w.o including $y2k IFO rewards accrued during the deposit period!

If no depeg -> 1.02% ROI = 53.04% APR
If depeg -> 7.73% ROI = 401.96% APR
šŸ§µšŸ‘‡ Note: assuming current price/ETH + the illiquid $y2k IFO price of $2.5

So what does the math look like?

TVL of MIM vaults = 192.42 ETH/hedge ($305k) & 1751.85 ETH/risk ($2.78m)

Personal $$ deposited = 1 ETH/hedge & 8 ETH/risk

% of vault(s) TVL = .519%/hedge & .456%/risk

> Price/ETH = 2k

> User A sets V3 tick range btwn 1.5k & 2.5k

> Price moves up/down within set range, earning LP fees

> After x extended period of time, price/ETH once again = 2k

> profit (hOw iS tHaT pOsSibLe?)

Apparently being short gamma is inherently unprofitable šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø
šŸ§µšŸ‘‡ Hereā€™s a diff example:

User B wants to take profits thru setting a ā€œDCA out limit orderā€ whilst earning LP fees & avoiding paying fees/slippage (i.e concentrated tick range j above current mkt price, or even gradually thru a wider range)

Great news @y2kfinance IFO enjoyooors ā€” @dex_chen_V and I built a Ī” Neutral $Y2K farming/overall ROI calc relative to personal hedge/risk vault exposure! (vs total ratio)

Pls note that ā€œprobability of depegā€ is a rough estimate, NFA :)
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/dā€¦ Edit:

Red Inputs -> personal exposure to vaults/overall ratio

Price/ETH -> gauging $Y2K farming APRs vs total USD value of ETH btwn both vaults

ā€œEpoch 1ā€ M7 & F7 -> edit this no. Epoch (between 1 & 4) to automatically update $Y2K rewards according to the epoch at hand

Hmm

Current $MIM price = $.9967

Current MIM3CRV pool ratio = 85/15%

@y2kfinance $MIM strike = $.975

MIM3CRV pool ratio needed to hit $.975 = 96.6/3.4% (per equation below, due to 2000 A)

Arbi CL MIM deviation/heartbeat = .5%/24hrs

Current Risk:Hedge ratio = 83/17% ImageImageImageImage In other words, w current Risk:Hedge ratio, Risk depositors will earn 16.15% ROI if MIM3CRV ratio doesnā€™t drop drastically btwn Nov 7-14th (ofc thereā€™s other MIM liq, tho Mainnet Curve is the main source) + 22k $Y2K per risk vault (IFO) * $2.5/tkn = share of $55k (154% APR atm) ImageImage
