Math Question:
Street is running a short swaps position on $SOL against the discounted buying of locked SOL from the bankruptcy estate of FTX. The leverage ratio of the short is L (i.e. the ratio of shorts measured in $ to $equity). Derive the Gamma position of the street as a function of L assuming the street is rebalancing its position daily in order to maintain this leverage ratio L.
Bastion thoughts on Renzo $ezETH @renzoai
[1/2] $ezETH is currently de-pegged by 2.31% to its fair value, and the discount is converging gradually as unstaking/withdrawal is expected to open up around mid-June.
ezETH/ETH is trading at on DeFi at 0.988
1 $ezETH is backed by 1.0113 ETH
The trade is to buy ezETH at discount, hedge $ETH exposure by futures/swaps. When withdrawal opens, redeem ezETH at fair value. By holding ezETH for around 20 days, you will also get the native staking yield and points for $REZ Season 2 airdrop and other @eigencloud AVS airdrops.
Soros holds the converts currently worth around $250m (not the stock outright). Both are above the convert strike and worth more than the face value. Looks like he actually reduced his MSTR exposure in Q1.
FINBOLD: “Perhaps the most interesting among the top stocks owned by Soros through the first quarter of 2024 is the shares of MicroStrategy (NASDAQ: MSTR), valued at approximately $135 million.”
