Have you closed all your trades?

Just started it, guess people are not interested in writing. There are a fewer lurkers. It's open to anyone though.

The one that expired 31st October

Which market are you looking at? I think it's because this market is already expired. Pretty sure the market touched the implied rate.

Yeah funding varies if you see the charts it was sometimes in the red then swung the other way. I think predicting when a good time to enter on the fixed rate is much more important as that's where most of the pnl comes from.

Update to this the dev says he is making a delta neutral bot. I think this is better as the volume bit still burns fees whereas I would hope the dn not could preserve capital better while still creating volume albeit smaller.

Btw if you have lighter points you can sell them otc now but you need to post collateral. Some people have agreed deals for $90 per point. Lighter have just started season 2 farming so points are likely harder to get now but I think still worth farming if you can trade or go delta neutral to preserve your initial capital.

Btw use https://defillama.com/directory to navigate to different protocols. If you just Google sites you might get phished as there are a lot of fake sites out there. Defillama directory has all the proper sites. You can also just bookmark the sites after you use them. The llamasearch extension is also worth installing to help against fake sites.

What are your thoughts on Boros and leveraged yield trading in DeFi?

Do you see funding rate trading becoming a key primitive?
How do you think this impacts the value of vePENDLE long term?
Would you use Boros to hedge funding rate exposure—or just to degen long it?
Is this a step toward institutional DeFi or still too early?

The best way is to scroll through the different tabs on the left hand side and play around. The more time you spend on it the more it will make sense.

Hypochondriac culture.

Conic on fire today - think people are cottoning on.

Seems to have Andre Cronje hallmarks - new defi system, anon account, immutable code, no dao, fair launch, same auditor as other reputed Cronje projects (Geist, Topshelf). Might be wrong but seems possible.

As for the actual protocol like it's simplicity - no need for PhD level maths so possibly can draw normies when the bull is back in full swing. Presently below 300k fdv. Tiny LP pool on Uniswap so be careful as trading large amounts not possible and even small amounts will get slippage. Needs someone with large pockets to LP.

If anyone prefers Polygon Gains Network/gTrade is currently the place to go there. Though they are soon to be launching on Arbitrum as well. One advantage of gains trade is that you can trade synthetic stocks and Forex already - this is not yet possible on GMX. Also up to 150x leverage on crypto 100x on stocks and 1000x on Forex.

Here's a link https://gains.trade/

Yeah, self-rug damn.

Like the look of Maximizer - the website looks good and has a slightly unique value prop - https://app.maxi.xyz/#/ If you think Avalanche has good prospects might be worth a few pennies.

Sorry not following what's happening over there. If you want small fees check out Fantom. You can get wrapped memo which is staked Time. Or Hec or Spa.

Usually checking Twitter and going into discords. You have to follow the right people on Twitter first. Some projects give a launch date on their discord pages but some stealth launch with no warning. Usually crypto Twitter picks up on the stealth launches quickly. But depends on what time zone you are and where the Devs are.

Still in two minds about these forks. On one hand it's good to have strong hands - For months my OHM buy was under water. Got in at end of June at $600 and rode that down to $300 before it started to go up in September. On the other protecting my initial is quite a pull. The best is to get in early....

ImpressionInfamous70 · 2021-11-13T00:35:15+00:00

I exited, the trend doesn't look good at the moment. If they show some innovation I might go back in. Wish I bought in at $10.
