Ok. Your own strategy

Deposit ETH, borrow LUSD
Deposit LUSD
Borrow waLUSD
Farm WASABI

Are you doing it exclusively from wasabix portal from the liquity vault/trove? Which it says is in beta and use at your own risk. There is no connection between the Liquity trove and the trove on Liquity?

Anyway, I feel I am getting sold on Wasabix, because one of the reasons I am interested in crypto is community > institutional. The premining of LQTY is sort of hanging over it like an ominous cloud and I have no idea if it will be rain or LIGHTNING strikes in the face. Nobody likes uncertainty. Although the quick rise of Liquity says something. Oddly I find the wasabix interface far more instructional and from what I can see it includes automatism (repaying debt) that isn't there on Liquity.

Are liquity/wasabix actually delivering a valuable financial service at the moment (loans that people do stuff with)? Or is this a "staking" period?

The loan portion is very valuable right now. It's the best value proposition in the ecosystem, as far as I'm aware.

The staking period is separate and not much different than many other platforms.

Decent day today.

Moved into MATIC in the morning. Went sideways all day. In the meantime, ETH came down to $4k so I converted to ETH around then. Figure this should be good for an easy 10%, as the closest thing I have to an investing thesis right now is "ETH will go up"

$ETH $MATIC and $LINK have the best fundamentals from an investing standpoint at the moment. $MATIC should be 10x by the end of the year unless Optimism (release in July) ends up being a better solution.

FYI, I switched over 6% of my strategy to AAVE on the Polygon network. Plan on increasing this position over time. Not as good of an APR as Wasabix strategy, but the collateral of $MATIC has more appreciation potential. Plan on taking this from 6 -> 20% over the next month, and then scaling back again to see how Optimism launches.

Yes, I see. You are clearly doing this at a level far higher than my ambition. Why are you looking for new ways, is it simply because it is fun and you just want more money, or is it that the winds change from defi platform/network to another, thus the same strategy/platform isn't viable? I think you know where I am getting it, is anything longer term viable right now?

I've been convinced that L2 networks (networks running on Ethereum) are going to be the future for the majority of transactions. I think Ethereum will serve as a clearing house between the networks.

The Polygon Network is currently the leader in that space, so I'm moving my DeFi stake from 100% Ethereum to 80% ETH, 20% Polygon. Currently 6% Polygon.

It's partly an experiment. I believe Ethereum long term is the safest bet, and think Wasabix Liquity is the best value proposition in the ecosystem.

Yes, I have a fair amount. It's semantics, but I consider 100% of my investments to by in stocks, ETFs, and bonds.

I use the blockchain as my savings account & live off the interest (The majority of my blockchain assets are tied to USD with crypto as collateral).

But, semantics aside.. if you put them both together, the stocks/ETFs/bonds are about 40% of that pie.

I don't pay much attention to that, and manage it separately. My biggest equity position this year is $AMLP which is up 24% YTD and pays a 2.2% quarterly dividend next week (~9% yield).

Overall, I consider myself very conservative. Not much of a growth investor, and my investment decisions are very much guided by macroeconomic conditions.

Now is not the time to get into crypto as an investing class unless you dollar cost average. Let the dust settle.

Multiple times have I warned people on this forum that crypto can crash suddenly up to 80%. It's part of the game.

Still early market. Takes guts to get in the game now, and willingness to lose everything you put into it. Risk/reward.

What drives these crashes?

It's an unregulated market.

The further crypto goes up, the more foolish people take out leverage.

SO.

How does that work?

Well, if I crash the price by 10% I can buy coins from the leveraged liquidations.

Then what happens?

Well, the people I liquidated take out more leverage, trying to get their money back.

So I crash it another 10% and take their money again.

This will go on until the leverage ratio in the market decreases to normal levels. And then it'll be a steady climb to new ATH.

Watch. Prove me wrong.

But, but, you can't even buy on leverage in the USA!

Doesn't matter. It's extremely simple to not be in the USA on the internet. And the rest of the world has unfettered access to leverage.

As long as this is the case, we'll see crashes until people learn not to use margin.

Smart money sees the buying opportunities and dollar cost averages.

Whale money simply liquidates retail investors then sells at the local maxima.

It's a brutal market. Truly Wild, Wild, West. And it made me f* u money, so I can't complain.

Crypto is for SAVING money, in my world. I've already made more than I need there. Investing grows my money. Although I can't help but make more money in crypto, even after the crash. Kinda frustrating at times, as if I wasn't so conservative I could be 8-9 figures instead of 7.

Interesting. Why did you lose collateral? You have no bothered raising the collateral to safer levels 250%?

I am curious how Using Liquity (only) without dealing with LQTY works. Because it looks like to get the higher APY you have to stake the LQTY, to earn LUSD.

Some of these questions are probably obvious once I start using the platform, but it feels like question I want to know beforehand.

I was at 250%, but it dipped under $1900 while I was in bed which put me at 109%. I still have the USD so it wasn't all that bad. At least it protects that, as opposed to people on leveraged futures that end up at $0. Expensive lesson learned, though.

As for $LQTY, you can just use Uniswap to convert it to $ETH or any other crypto as you get it, instead of staking the LQTY. You do miss out on the big APR from staking $LQTY but that doesn't matter much to me, since it's probably a depreciating asset anyways. Wasabix would be the safest APR and now that they fixed their smart contracts I don't have any other complaints.

The issue with Wasabix vs. Liquity is Liquity is a pro project and it's immutable. Never have to worry about it changing or having issues like I did with the contract. So if you're willing to take the risk joining a community project that might have some warts along the way, it's probably not too bad.

Sorry, that wasn't directed at you. I was actually responding to myself.

I think you make a lot of good points.

People focus things on chart patterns but at the end of the day chart patterns are only the visual clues that buyers and sellers leave at different price levels as they fight for control of the trend in a market.

Nobody can really know who'll win the trend in the short term.

Now, long-term is a different story as fundamentals win the game there.

Man, this talk of "this week" and "fundamentals" in crypto takes me back.

And on top of this we have habebe talking of "Biden" monitoring bank accounts, as if this is some liberal thing and not a normal function of any tax collecting entity.

I suppose this as good as time as any to dump my financial genius on y'all.

Interest rates don't go up again for a year or two (depending on inflation pressures which are currently minor), and you have (at most) until then before "we" cash out into solid securities. If interest rates hit 2-3% per year, the rich (hi!) will put their money in that and be thankful for the opportunity causing sufficient sell pressure on this asset class. There is at most one more bubble phase remaining in the crypto timeline.

The distance (time) between bubbles has to increase (as we have seen in history), and there are real "physical" limits on the numbers (a non-productive asset cannot dominate, POW has a energy -> price limit, and POS is dubious and not implemented in major coins). As it was with other schemes (pyrmaid/Madoff etc.) specific laws/regulations/persecutions will not come until after "the crash", but the bubble cycle will not continue as it has. When the big crash happens cryptoscheme (like pyramid/ponzi scheme) will become a word, IMO.

I think that most skeptics are wrong in their analysis. Tether is indicative, but not a bellwether. 3% backing (which seems relatively accurate in assets/liabilities), is reasonably resilient to "bank runs" (particularly in an environment where sells can be artificially cut by "whoops website maintenance" and buys otherwise accumulated until trading resumes) and even the solid US/EU central bank structure only has ~(15-20)% banking (the norms here change). However, the "stable coins" cannot go to another order of magnitude as .3% backing is wholly insufficient to cover relevant bear pressure when a "flash crash" occurs. Further, the freely manipulated nature of crypto, and its NAKED (decentralized ponzi/pyramid) structure seem to increase its resiliency in the presence of "technological innovation", (meaning the cash/asset percentage is not as important as with e.g. Madoff). The tethertards do have a good point though, there is only so much cash in the system, and you can't cash out that which isn't there. This only matters in terms of volatility, i.e. when the price falls or rises it will rise or fall more because the market is more manipulable.

I am neutral in this (I don't care about what you have or how you make/made/lose/lost it), only liking to be right. The "decade of crypto" is ending, sooner or later, perhaps in this boom/bust cycle. I don't know what will replace it but X-coin will go the way of Amway.

Gamble however you want, but I feel a moral pressure to provide my analysis, even if it is ingored.

You're speaking of crypto as an investment vehicle, like pretty much everyone else (interesting that you call your cookie cutter analysis 'financial genius' but I'll assume that was facetious) but ignoring the entire long-term value proposition of DeFi.

I'm using crypto as my savings account and making great returns on my cash right now.

That said, you have to have a lot of courage to go all-in on a new financial system at this early stage in the game, which I why I stick to the stock market for my investment funds.

This crash has shown me that DeFi is even more valuable, not less.

None of my services have had any hiccups, and the volatility has actually increased my gains on the cash.

I did lose $150K worth of Ethereum collateral in DeFi, but that was a calculated risk (and I still got 135K cash outta the deal, which continues to reap interest on AAVE, so it could have been worse).

> None of my services have had any hiccups

Correction, Wasabix did have somewhat of a hiccup when their smart contracts didn't let me take out 100% of my money due to massive gas fees. Now fixed. But overall, I hadn't expected the system to be so stable. The robust nature of DeFi was 100% theory before the past month, now it's facts (at least for the services which I'm using).

Man this shill...

Cash, house, stock, bonds or crypto are generally "investment vehicles" in your broad sense.

The problem (hypothetically) is what happens when shit hits the fan. You can buy anything with cash, you can live in a house, stock is ownership over an entity that produces a tangible good or service, bonds are relatively solid load instruments to entities with good credits...

but crypto is..... faith in a structure that is at best "a new type of scam".

DeFi is meaningless, that at best value proposition erases counterparty risk that was never significant.

You're contradicting yourself here. If you support crash and don't see much wrong with Tether, than you are in favor of DeFi. I can convert my cash to Tether and put it into a smart contract for loan pools and make ~9% APY just leaving it there.

Think high-yield savings except you get 100% of the returns instead of the banks taking a cut.

From the President!

Dr Rouhani thanked the Minister of Energy for apologising to the people for the power outages and said, "Our nuclear power plant has entered the circuit and will soon reach its maximum capacity, and the power plants under repair will return to the circuit faster to solve the power outage problem. To help solve this problem, from today until the end of the summer, any activity to mine cryptocurrencies, even by those who have a license, is illegal so that there is no problem in supplying electricity to the people".

Still a lot of downside in the market right now, but if you want to go long, just make sure you don't do it in the middle of the BTC range.

Right now BTC is ranging primarily from 32K-38K, and is highly coupled with all other coins.

If you want to short, short around 38. If you want to long, do it around 32K.

I'm still ~96% cash (stablecoins) at the moment.

Also, looks like my call of $ETH to $2500 has held so far. That's the focal point of the volume right now.

Technicals look junk though, we could test my next target around $1800.

It'll be back to new all-time highs by the end of the year though, so if you can park, just hold.

^this aged well. Went straight to $1800 and has hovered around it since.

Bad news bears are here. Today's massive Bitcoin dump had the volume structure of a test dump. More pain to follow.

I've been mostly stablecoins (always worth $1) ever since the start, but thanks. I can still live off the interest. Let me know if you need gas money!

Umm, AAVE is a platform. You don't use the $AAVE token for it. Embarrassing yourself.

Switching my strategy to AAVE means I switched to the AAVE DeFi service, which you would know if you were part of that convo!

I'll include you next time, clearly you want to play with the big boys.

I do appreciate your concern, though. I derisked my crypto into half stablecoins before the crash. Not gonna lie, I did lose more money than you'll make this year despite that.

I was prepared to lose way more. I'm a broken record, but, as I said before the crash and in my very first thread, you have to be prepared to accept up to 80% crash.

I used $MATIC and $DAI on AAVE. Not the $AAVE token. Which is all documented above.

> collateral of $MATIC has more appreciation potential

Here's the proof so you don't have to hurt your brain too much!

I keep getting app alerts that BTC has dropped x amount, down to 28K.

Pretty cheap.I havnt checked the others but I suspect several others have dropped as well.

Yeah, they mostly drop in concert. BTC is actually the strongest right now.

Most of the energy has been zapped from the market. I don't think we'll see a full recovery for a while yet.

Unless new stimmies or something.

Hmm, I have gotten a conflicting prognosis, that BTC is going back to 50-60k and that this is the best time to buy.

All I can tell you is we're in a range still. If the range holds we'll see another dump by the end of the week. If it breaks out, we could be free. I don't see any reason to think the range is broken yet, so my money is on the sidelines for now earning interest in stablecoins.
