This 'Option spread USDA+ strategy' > 'Pendle USDe loop strategy'
Ethereum (Reddit)
Autonomint has recently released a new stablecoin design that converts risk hedging into a yield-generating activity.
A user has earned 12% monthly returns translating to ~144% APYs.
Don't believe me? Just read this user's tweet -
Also, feel free to visit our TG group and talk to our users.
So, let me know explain how we do this
1. USDA+ is a decentralised stablecoin soft pegged to USD. It maintains it's peg via users hedging collateral volatility risk by buying synthetic options. This hedging allows USDA+ holders to generate yields without losing their ETH collateral upside and by being protected on the downside.
2. Users can convert hedging risk into a yield generating play
-> Users deposit ETH as collateral and mint USDA+
-> Autonomint deducts option fees from the minted USDA+ value. This option fees provides protection on 20% ETH price fall.
Option-based hedging offers a key advantage over Ethena’s perp-based strategy. Users can benefit in both directions:
> If ETH drops, they earn returns based on the price decline (hedge pays off).
> If ETH rises, they still capture the upside, minus a 3% fee on the gains.
User now deposits the minted USDA+ in Autonomint dCDS module and starts earning yield from option premiums from other users looking to hedge on their ETH deposits.
By doing this alone, you can earn the 8.33% monthly yields.
3. Now, coming to 'option spread strategy'
This 'option spread strategy' is 10x better than 'Ethena USDe looping strategy'
When users hedge their ETH on Autonomint, then their option fees is 60% cheaper than the monthly option fees priced on Deribit for ETH. Also, it involves 0 upfront cost at our platform, as the fees is deducted initially from the borrowed amount rather than asking user to pay out of his/her pocket.
Now, For 1 ETH price hedge, a ~ $100 option fees is deducted from the minted USDA+ value. User is now hedged on the downside for 1 month (short ETH)
Now go to Deribit or other option exchanges and sell a put option on 1 ETH for >$380 (as per current prices). This is for 1 month expiry
By selling put option, user goes long on ETH and by selling call option, user goes short on ETH and become fully delta neutral.
You can sell either as per your choice.
Net returns per month = $380 - $100 = $280
$280 monthly returns translates to a minimum of 5.833% yields over a principal of 1 ETH and margin amount in Deribit.
Now, if you do sell daily or weekly option price then this returns increases even higher.
These are upfront yields. No delay or waiting.
Over a year, it would be translating to >50% yields with some fluctuations in option prices considered.
You can add this yields to dCDS yields and your total sum of yields earned will be even higher.
Your ETH collateral doesn’t just sit idle, it earns additional yield (2.5%+) via AAVE when deposited through Autonomint.
And your ETH upside? Still yours. If ETH hits $5,000, you keep all the gains minus a small 3% deduction.

1/ Just finished my second round of experimentation w/ @autonomint.
30 days ago, I deposited 0.34 ETH ($1000 @ $3k/ETH), minting 820 USDA+ to hedge downside risk (protection down to $2500).
I opened a 30-day dCDS position to underwrite risk in return for…

How to change username on Farcaster?
Ethereum (Reddit)
Does anyone know how to change the username on Farcaster (the easy/user friendly way)? I've tried on my profile and also with an HTML code, but it wasn't successful, perhaps because they've made a lot of changes in the app and now some actions are no longer supported. I have no idea on how to do this. Help!

How high do you guys realistically see ethereum going in the next 5 years?

I finally have a good amount of money to invest in crypto. I just need a perspective from an experienced person.

I have around $140 worth of ETH drained, I didn't sign any malicious contract, and my wallet have no malicious token approval, yet ym eth was drained and I got sent some wlfi token.
Just trying to figure out what happened
Edit: prior to my eth being drained, I signed some unlock agreement with WLFI, official project by Eric Trump on the site and a couple hours, it was drained.
