The @yieldbasis WETH propAMM traded $28.9M in its first week, 6.8x the week before. • $23M on day one • 86 wallets traded • The top 5 wallets did 47% of the volume • Over $400K in swap fees One busy day did most of the earning. Day one brought in over 90% of the week's fees. Every swap on the pool, pulled using HyperSync: github.com/enviodev/hypersyn… xitter.cf/yieldbasis/status/2117…

Some thoughts on Yield Basis 1. propAMM changed the game for the project. It's evident that capital efficiency significantly improved. 2. Today WETH pool earns even when volatility is small or moderate. 3. WETH PPS (redemption, not only fundamental) skyrocketed: -> 29 October: 1.0044 -> 1.0444 (+4% to the position or more than ETH yearly staking income, also it is 10x profits vs. all history of this pool before that since and of May) -> 29 October - 4 November: 1.0444 -> 1.0476 (+7.2% to profit or 0.3% to overall position value within 6 days or theoretically ~18% APR) 4. Admin fees or what veYB holders capture are printing every day now While I wrote this post, +$9k veYB fees. Not bad.

Ok, these events are not happening often (thankfully). But what's after? We've noticed that some very good arbitrage traders started using propAMM very efficiently. We've got exactly 1 day of "after volatility" time, and it looks pretty good so far. Continuing observations 🫡

Yield Basis $WETH LPs made MORE yield [per 1 $ETH in the pool] overnight than $ETH staking delivers over the year +4.1% overnight Meaning 1 WETH now is 1.041 WETH that LP can withdraw.
