As we end the year, we also end the first two months of Gearbox V2 being live and here’s how things have been βš™οΈπŸ§°

βš™οΈ The TVL, despite the market conditions, has grown to $117m. ~$13M of this comes from collateral of the Ninjas and ~$104M from the LP side. Image βš™οΈ With borrowings at $62M, the utilization is at almost the optimum levels leading to organic borrow rates on stables at ​​±2% and WETH at Β±2.6%. The Lend APYs have been further boosted with $GEAR rewards. LP in to earn the below APYs: app.gearbox.fi/pools/ Image

Just 3 days after launch, Gearbox V2 is now at ~$106M in the pools, whereas $51M ⚑️ is borrowed for farming/trading + ~9M in leverage users' collateral = approximately $115M TVL.

Let's look into some stats 🧡 1⃣ Credit Accounts open: 90

Only 90 CAs were needed to borrow ~49M from the pools [whereas ~2M is still not migrated by users from V1]. That's about $500K+ borrowed on average per account! $USDC currently is the most popular debt asset [38 CAs], $WETH at 35, and $DAI at 16.

Oeef, 6 hours of social madness & constant monitoring! But things are normalizing now, so we can write a thread on what all the fuss is about... "OK $100M+ TVL, who cares, why is it even there, what can I do, where is alpha and who are Ninjas?!"

Let's go 🧡 Image First of all, total TVL is capital in pools + borrowed + collateral of leverage users. As such, total number is actually > $115M at the moment. πŸ¦™s are on the case to fix it! Anyway, TVL is amazing, but now the question is "why is that liquidity even there, what's the point"... Image

Have you ever wanted to get leverage on your favorite #DeFi protocol? To be able to margin trade on @Uniswap or @SushiSwap; leverage farm on @iearnfinance; arbitrage pegged assets on @CurveFinance & so on?

We're building that! The first article is out πŸ‘‡

link.medium.com/F5U9kbxeAib Gearbox is a generalized leverage protocol: it allows you to use leverage across various DeFi protocols in a composable way. The protocol has two sides to it: passive LPs who earn higher APY; and active users who borrow those assets to trade or farm with x4+ leverage.
