This space becomes a joke lately.
I mean not that I would use a protocol that is called Piggybank (red flag already lol) but they decided to play a bit #FTX , invest some customer money and loose it π πππ
-15% on your USDC. Dingdong.
Dear Community,
- One month ago, PiggyBank got into a new position for $100k (~2% of the portfolio at the time), as part of the strategyβs scope of deploying into mid-cap basis trades.
- The strategy involved purchasing locked $LAB tokens at a significant discount through a Tier-1 OTC desk and hedging that exposure through perpetual shorts. During the holding period, $LAB experienced violent manipulation, including chaotic price movements on thin liquidity, and deeply negative funding rates.
- Maintaining the hedge became economically irrational and would have caused us to cross our risk thresholds. We therefore decided to close our short to cap the downside.
- In accounting terms, the total value of our $LAB locked position is $1.35m at current prices. However, due to the illiquid nature of this position, Piggybank is excluding it from the NAV until the first unlock on August 14. Even though this is an evolving situation that could still generate substantial returns, this is the fairest and most transparent way to let users manage their liquidity.
- Accordingly, todayβs NAV will show a ~15% drawdown on the USDC vault, ~12% on SPYx and ~9% on JitoSOL.
- A detailed report will be published next week with next steps.
@FabianoSolana@zachxbt With all due respect didn't you also promote putting your xStocks tokens into Piggybank? Or was it someone else?
~12% on SPYx. , lol
Don't take it personally, but I warned under these "lending" promotions for weeks now, where people get encouraged to lend their xstocks
It's always hard to buy when BTC dumps like this but the opportunity worked so far 3 times for me ... it's not my first rodeo.
Once you got through FTX, Luna, MTGOX and Covid Crash you know that it's time to slowly accumulate $BTC gain when everyone is overbearish.
Be careful people tend to get extremely bearish on $BTC after these kind of moves. The Fear is big right now and people tend to panic and throw everything at $BTC at the same time to make it look bad.
These drops give you opportunities. We hit the 200SMA weekly and we either bounce here or we have some months below that line most probably. But in the end of the year everyone could fomo back into $BTC and buy higher.
Again normal Bearmarket blues here ...
@degenairline@benjamincowen That's a good question imo .. could the drop be -70% like other bear markets or could it stay near the 200 SMA weekly (where we are now)
It's funny to see all the comments today about $BTC
When BTC was at 120k everyone called for 1 million$ and future of finance ππ€£π€£
When $BTC now drops to it 200MA weekly everyone calls it hot garbage and it dies.
Can't make this up. Selling at one and buying at the other :)
@Million_Sancet@swiftwishes my limit order at 5.90 Euro got also executed. Lets see how often I have to DCA in 2026 into it π π first time ever buying a stock with a Limit order hahahha
