Let's go to @FantomFDN.
Why? Wasn't I on @FantomFDN yesterday? Yes.
Let's go to @FantomFDN.
The reason for the return to @FantomFDN, besides it being so durn cute and all, is that @miketho15343550 pointed out a UNIDX-wFTM LP on @EqualizerFlash.
I have ~58 $UNIDX, which equates to 764 $wFTM.
Where do I get 764 $wFTM?
Let's go to @avalancheavax and take a self-loan.
Avalanche
So, I go to @avalancheavax and borrow 100 $AVAX on @BenqiFinance. 100 $AVAX is more than 764 $wFTM, but I have a plan:
- $100 (5 $AVAX) to COSMOS for the 100 $USDC on @demexchange
- $1000 (51 $AVAX) as $ETH to @arbitrum to buy $GLP.
- the rest to @FantomFDN.
Let's do it.
ByBit
First things first: I transfer 43 $AVAX to @Bybit_Official to eventuate on @FantomFDN as $FTM.
The transfer takes a wee bit, so I do this FRIST! AHA! 😎
Huh. The transfer occurred pretty quickly.
I head OFT! to the Bybit order books, swapping $AVAX for $USDT.
The way limit orders are now fulfilled are pretty exciting! I placed a sell limit-order (1 of them),
...but ByBit actually fulfilled it with four trades, pretty quickly, too!
Then I swap that $USDT for $FTM.
One thing I noticed: these multiple trade-transactions now have not insignificant trading fees.
0.8471538598 $USDT?
1.71769 $FTM?
Excuse me?
These aren't @ethereum fees, but they're also not @FantomFDN nor @avalancheavax fees.
What gives?!?
I transfer the $FTM on @Bybit_Official to @FantomFDN,
...and we're in business!
Fantom
What does 'in business' mean on @FantomFDN? Me, I pass all liquidity first through @GeistFinance then through @GranaryFinance.
"That's a lot of work!" you observe.
Yes, it is, but why do I do this? To leverage the liquidity, ... twice.
I do the usual supply-then-borrow of stables to leverage liquidity on the @GeistFinance money-market,
...then I swap that borrowed $MIM to $FTM (@UnlDexFinance works best swapping TO $FTM),
...then to $sFTMX on @beethoven_x.
I amble on over to @GranaryFinance and do the same thing: supply $sFTMX to borrow $FTM, leveraging the liquidity via the supply/borrow-loop.
You see I borrow 1050 $FTM, more than the 764 $FTM I need to provision the $UNIDX-LP. Why?
Because I'll hedge my @GranaryFinance position
As the $UNIDX-lps on @EqualizerFlash require wrapped $FTM, I first swap my $FTM on @beethoven_x.
Then I provide liquidity to the pools. Let's do the volatile UNIDX-FTM LP first.
Dear @EqualizerFlash,
Why is my position 0 LP when you very clearly stated my LP was staked?
Please fix so it shows the correct staked LP balance.
Thank you.
love, geophf
Okay, now let's do the stable UNIDX-wFTM LP.
This requires a lot more $FTM than what I anticipated.
After much thought, I say: "No problem!" I just stake what I have, and revert the remaining $UNIDX to @UnlDexFinance,
...
so I have all three kinds now: 2 LPs and $UNIDX HODL.
After the dust settles, my @FantomFDN portfolio is thus.
