I share and write about DeFi and NFT, mostly on my blog, and in live shows on Twitch (French).
G.O of 馃悡DeFi France, DeFi Strategy @DeFiCollective & 馃ぜ Luchadores.io fanatic
I've been onboarding two friends to #DeFi over the last months with sessions and exercises: it helped me to realize the insane complexity we degens are now accustomed to
To help them navigate the dark forest, I'm making them "cheat sheets": any similar resource you'd recommend?
I've resigned from my position at the Aave / $GHO Liquidity Committee
I cannot recognize myself in how decisions are taken, & things are done there, but a majority of committee members are happy with the current state, so I'm out
For more info check the blog post below
In the post, I share the shortcomings I recognize in a structure such as the GLC and connect them to broader trends observed in #DeFi governance: the rise of professional politicians and the arrival of Newspeak
Read on anon; you're in for a ride
Oldie but goodie for patient #DeFi padawans

#GHO Liquidity Committee Update #2
馃搱 Results: since the inception of the first @mavprotocol uneven static boosted pool (#57), the price has been positively impacted, requiring an adjustment of the Maverick strategy
Maverick strategy
The static, unevenly distributed boosted pool we harness acts like buy walls: as they get filled, they push the $GHO to the left, acting like a self-fulfilling prophecy [->see screen 1]
A well-dimensioned buy wall naturally called for a similar buy wall moved a few ticks to the left a few days later.
Incentives on BP#57 will not be renewed
A new BP, #59, is already available for LP to supply:
[->see screen 2]
With a tighter and more concentrated range, this BP will suffice until $GHO >0.97
Uniswap v3 / Merkl Strategy
It has come to our attention that the liquidity for $GHO on @Uniswap is currently unbalanced, mostly to the sell side: [->see screen 3]
To attempt to rebalance the pool, ideally to the exact opposite (~80% USDC, 20% GHO), a campaign has been created on @angleprotocol.lens Merkl, which enables precise & customizable @Uniswap v3 incentivization.
Here are its terms:
The committee believes a campaign with such parameters will help revert the balance of tokens in the $GHO / $USDC Uniswap pool in favor of USDC (buy-side)
Another experiment happening live before your eyes, which you can participate in!
The new Maverick Boosted Pool can be supplied here:
app.mav.xyz/boosted-positions/0x578f0b465cfd916308b1abccc1c5753452893f9b?chain=1
For rewards managed through Merkl, all Uniswap V3 $GHO / $USDC LP qualify starting tomorrow, with the ponderation derived from the above settings. Liquidity can already be supplied & the rewards will be claimable starting tomorrow on Merk's website:

ICYMI - The decentralized stablecoin marauder's map is out!
In this piece, I address the critical challenges for designing a decentralized stablecoin & the relevant mechanisms harnessed by live/upcoming ones.
The following stables are covered: $GHO, $LUSD, $crvUSD, $DYAD, & more

What about you, Luchador? @luchadores.lens

A wild new @balancerprotocol.lens pool appeared!
I've baptized this one the "Liquity Trinity." 33.3% $LUSD / 33.4% $wETH / 33.3% $LQTY
It should grow quickly as it enables more efficient compounding for LUSD and LQTY stakers
