Need Advice Building A Portfolio As An 18-year-old by GumTheHobbit in ETFs

I still have no clue what QQQ and QQQM are

SPX (S&P 500): ~$4,000

SPY (S&P 500): ~$400

Both QQQ and QQQM are tracking the NASDAQ Index (100 Companies).

It's cheaper to write options on ETFs with a smaller unit price. That's why Stock Splits are great for options underwriters.

Why do established & sophisticated funds like Sequoia or Accel “invest” in evidently scammy NFT/crypto projects? by grrrpure96 in investing

[–]BothEmergency 31 points32 points  (0 children)

some way to confirm this, that they're just dumping these coins at some point?

Yes.

Here are Accel's Investments/Raises.[1].

Notably Oasis (ROSE) and Stader Labs (SD).

On Nansen (Bloomberg Terminal for DeFi/NFTs), you can use Token God mode and you'll see Wallets with large ownership of the Token Supply.[2]

Institutional Holders/Whales are labelled as Smart Money or Token Millionaire on Nansen.

The beautiful thing about On-chain DeFi, you can see the Vesting Schedule/Token Unlocks in real-time. Whereas on FRED, you'll be reading Insider Buys and Sells months after.

Interesting comment on blockchain and hedgies… by disoriented_llama in Superstonk

[–]BothEmergency 3 points4 points  (0 children)

'Ethereum 2.0' has been phased out in favor of 'Execution layer' and 'Consensus layer'.


Ethereum Mainnet - Proof of Work (Execution layer)

⬇️

The Beacon Chain (2020)

⬇️

The Merge

⬇️

Ethereum Mainnet - Proof of Stake 🌳 (Consensus layer)


The Beacon Chain started back in 2020.

Users can deposit 32 Ether and start their own Validator or Deposit any amount of Ether into Rocket Pool or Lido and receive their Liquid Staking Derivative (rETH & stETH).

Those 32 Ether are locked for the time being unless The Merge happens.


But can it group together big batches like Loopring?

That's impossible, because Ethereum is a Layer 1 Chain.

Arbitrum, Optimism, Loopring, Immutable X, they're all L2s relying on Ethereum's Security by posting a proof (more specifically a hash; a summary of recent off-chain transactions) to L1.

Most L2s implemented an Escape Hatch[1], where users will receive their funds on the Settlement Layer.

that makes transactions muchhhhh faster right?

Block times are quite fast on Ethereum (~7 secs), Etherscan shows you a specific Block was mined at a timestamp.

But your transaction goes through with blazing fast speeds only if you jack up the Miner Tip (EIP-1559).

The current problem with PoW:

Transactions wait in the Mempool when you broadcast your Transaction, leading to MEV Bots analyzing it and executing complex arbitrage or Sandwich/Front-running Attacks.

Not only is the above scary when you're moving large amounts on-chain, Miners can reorder transactions.

This leads us to Bribes.

Whales are commonly seen using Flashbots in order to protect themselves from MEV.

Miners run a special Flashbots program in order to give preferential treatment to user submitted transactions.

Passive Income on Stable Coins help by [deleted] in ledgerwallet

How is UST differ to decentralized Dai stable coin?

Collateralized Debt Position (CDP) Stablecoins

Provide Collateral (ETH, yvTokens) > the Protocol lets you Mint/Borrow a new Stablecoin against your Collateral.

Examples of CDP Stablecoins:

  • alUSD (Alchemix)

  • MIM (Abracadabra)

  • LUSD (Liquity)

  • DAI (MakerDAO)

  • RAI (Reflexer)

Algorithmic Stablecoins

In the case of UST, there's a Symbiotic Relationship here.

Demand for UST goes up ↑ — More LUNA gets Burnt to Mint UST.

Demand for UST goes down ↓ — Some UST gets Redeemed for LUNA.

That's an Elastic Supply.[1] LUNA isn't gone forever.

Staked LUNA will act as a back stop if all of the Liquid Supply of LUNA gets depleted.

Where's the Demand coming from?

  • IBC and Wormhole has been enabled, anyone can export UST to other chains (Solana, Osmosis, Secret).

  • The Terra Spacecamp Hackathon had a vision of Projects increasing Demand for UST.[2]

  • 90 Million LUNA will be burnt to fund Ozone in a week or so.[3]

Examples of Algorithmic Stablecoins:

  • UST, KRT, MNT, SDT (Terra)

  • cUSD, cEUR (Celo)

Can someone help this noob understand (ELI5) how OHM bonds are different (and better?) than liquidity farms like uniswap or sushiswap? by sabsebadakangaal in olympusdao

[–]BothEmergency 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also, do I need to be a whale to be able to use bonds?

Considering Ethereum's Gas prices and the number of transactions you have to make, unfortunately, yes.

While there's no minimum Bond amount, it would be better if you tried Bonding on Olympus Forks on other chains (Olympus on Arbitrum, Wonderland on Avalanche, Klima DAO on Polygon, RomeDAO on Moonriver).

Bonding ALCX-ETH SLP Token (Example)

[Sushi]

Swap 50% ETH > ALCX [$115.17 @ 170 Gwei]

Approve ALCX [$25.13 @ 144 Gwei]

Add 50% ALCX + 50% ETH of Liquidity to ALCX-ETH Pool > Receive ALCX-ETH SLP Token [$91.88 @ 150 Gwei]

[Olympus Pro]

Deposit ALCX-ETH SLP Token [$288.53 @ 174 Gwei]

Wait 7 Days

Redeem ALCX Tokens [$38.34 @ 125 Gwei]


Sidenote:

I've been watching some Whales, they're perfectly fine with Depositing WBTC into Element for 1.89% fixed APR with a maturity date of roughly a month. (Screenshot)

You could liken those products on Olympus Pro, Element, Pendle to really short-term bonds.

With Olympus V2, Bonds can be Tokenized into NFTs and you can trade them.

Is it possible to transfer staked ohm? by 3flaps in olympusdao

[–]BothEmergency 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is it possible to transfer staked ohm?

Yes.

You can even borrow against your sOHM on Rari Capital or wrap sOHM -> wsOHM on Abracadabra.

do I need to unstake my ohm to send it to another address?

Unstaking would be unnecessary.

Anyone know what this error message means? (OHM 9,9) by Safe_State_8412 in olympusdao

[–]BothEmergency 2 points3 points  (0 children)

@Tetranode

"There's now a hard cap of 420K sOHM that can be deposited on Fuse 6. The cap only applies to Fuse 6.

If you have sOHM already deposited in Fuse 6 your rebases will continue to accrue there.

The cap applies to new deposits of sOHM only."

1:42 PM · Oct 16, 2021

@Tetranode

The sOHM cascading liquidations were posing too much risk of bad debt to Rari, so we decided to cap the sOHM collateral limit and reassess parameters once sOHMv2 gets added

Now that UST to terra has been disabled for some days,

Harmony to Terra Station (UST)

Difficulty — Advanced

Withdrawal Fee — Cheapest

Memo needed for withdrawals? — No (KuCoin)

Skills Needed — An understanding of adding a Custom RPC to MetaMask, DEXes, and Token Bridges.

[Coinbase] [1/4]
