1) Arb-mining is a new and experimental form of token distribution on top of liquidity mining. We can think of aggregate keeper proceeds as the implied acquisition cost of emitted ROOKs to keepers, similar to thinking of the opportunity cost to LPs as token acquisition costs.

Contrary to what maximalists of any kind will tell you, crypto is choose your own adventure. Here are some actual ways ppl I know have -100% during this cycle 1) ETH -> fUSDT -> Harvest 2) USDC -> DAI -> Pickles 3) WBTC -> BZRX 4) DAI -> EMN (halfrekt) 5) Anything -> dForce

If DeFi was around during the electronification of foreign exchange markets, I can tell you that dealer banks would be out of business and that the $5T/day mkt would be peer-to-peer and peer-to-pool. The main ingredients missing now are privacy and scaling and then we just win.

✨ Market Commentary & Paper Trading

Since December, we have been featuring a spotlight of the week. After doubling the initial fund, we sold half for $10,000 and created the ‘Outlier Fund’ looking for small-cap DeFi buys that we think to have a chance of bringing exponential returns. Feel free to follow our buys!

For the Outlier Fund, our pick is 88mph (MPH) for $500.
