@fede_intern Uniswap isn't just the 0.05% pool you use for comparison. There are several 0.01% ETH/USDC pools with much closer to 2 bps spreads for $1000 trades.
Sources: I relied heavily (but not exclusively) on this excellent article by Justin Thaler (@SuccinctJT): a16zcrypto.com/posts/article/… Image source (CC BY-NC 2.0): flickr.com/photos/feuilll… On how Ethereum is tackling the risks: pq.ethereum.org
My read of this is that IF we can build reliable prediction-market oracles (which seems like a much easier problem than building real time oracles) THEN we can unlock this. Risk perspective: "liquidation hunting" will be replaced with "rollover hunting" x.com/VitalikButerin…
Building index-tracking assets on top of options instead of debt ethresear.ch/t/building-ind… What if the use options as the base of defi, instead of CDPs and liquidations? So instead of extreme price movements creating a sharp and global "you get liquidated" effect, instead your
@cryptoeconprof Who do you think should be responsible for that execution?
@MattFiebach Also the "optimality" where it exists in tradfi is mostly limited to a very small set of actors. For the common guy it's very far from that.
@MattFiebach Mostly agree. DeFi - democratizing finance, not replacing it. But disagree on it already being "structurally" optimal. Settlement remains strictly better in crypto - clear finality, no counterparty risk. Risk surface is smaller, and risk mgmt can be automated to a higher degree
@letsgetonchain @OriginProtocol exactly. and I kind of said that it's not matching the 3rd requirement
@mcp0x @binance @HyperliquidX The 10.95% APR number always seemed weird to me, thanks for digging deeper
@hrkrshnn the specifics absolutely not - they're pretty impossible to get right in foresight - but I feel I did get the general direction: x.com/atiselsts_lv/s…
Let's put it this way - if I was writing something creative in English and had access to the GPT-3 API, I'd see no reason t not use GPT-3 to help with the writing. I expect GPT-3 to be super useful as a tool, in varied applications including coding.
@newmichwill Agree very much. Posted before the latest hack: x.com/atiselsts_eth/…
Low risk DeFi can't be the revenue engine for @ethereum if low risk DeFi does not exist. (Other than a couple of OG protocols like Uniswap) EF is already doing plenty to make the core protocol more secure. Next step is including DeFi too, like Solana has x.com/SolanaFndn/sta…
@ivangbi_ @ethereum This is exactly what i've been talking about. Please consider if EF can do something to make running such security scans a norm rather than an exception. x.com/liliangjya5/st…
On April 6, I ran an AI-assisted security scan on Kelp DAO and flagged their LayerZero DVN bridge config as an unresolved risk. 12 days later, that exact attack surface was exploited for $292M. The tool didn't find a code bug. It found something code audits can't catch: a
Low risk DeFi can't be the revenue engine for @ethereum if low risk DeFi does not exist. (Other than a couple of OG protocols like Uniswap) EF is already doing plenty to make the core protocol more secure. Next step is including DeFi too, like Solana has x.com/SolanaFndn/sta…
Solana was built for security. As the ecosystem scales, so does our investment in the tools, standards, and support. Today that commitment deepens with a new security program, active monitoring, formal verification for top protocols, and a new crisis response network. Learn
@DefiIgnas this is literally the opposite of what crypto promised (no middlemen, permissionless access) now middlemen will frontrun transactions, with their priority levels depending on how wealthy they are no wonder this hasn't been tried out before
For one, I believe that audits (for code bugs) are one of the things that DeFi does get right. And better audits or formal verification wouldn't have prevented most of the recent exploits: Resolv, Drift > private key compromise + lack to timelock and other circuit breakers Venus Protocol > economic attack, flagged by audits but ignored Aperture Finance, Solv > bugs in unaudited contracts Makina Finance > vault logic compromise, OOS for audits In TradFi, companies are mandated to do thorough risk management by law. In DeFi, we're not. Solution? More social consensus that DeFi needs to learn to take better care of its risks. This already works with code audits - everyone believes that a protocol that doesn't have code reviewed by security experts can't be taken seriously. It also works for L2s because we have @l2beat. Comparably, we don't have nearly as good insight into the admin control levels of major DeFi protocol deployments. Similarly, we know far more about how to exit L2s in times of crisis than how to exit major DeFi protocols if/when their admin decides to do something funky. EF doesn't need to pick and choose some favorite protocols. But it would be nice to recognize that there's a crisis in "low-risk" DeFi and push for a more principled approach, where risk management goes beyond looking for bugs in the code.
mostly two reasons: - realization that LVR is only small part of what makes onchain liquidity challenging (vindication for us who said it all along) - realization that AMMs are typically money sinks, not money generators (vindication for OB folks) x.com/duelinggalois/…
Do you know why you don't hear about LVR anymore? Because everyone lost.
@PropellerSwap @UniswapFND congrats, sounds exciting!
