@Fiskantes if the system’s got no slack
tails are gonna show it’s wack
don’t think of it as primitive or limited
tale as old as time, when over-tuning it
a little volatility and here u sit
all alone, liquidated
@Fiskantes when a protocol is distributing tokens, it’s doing so with a specific goal in mind - onchain tx records for every address gives it an unprecedented level of specificity in how they choose to distribute
very rarely will this result in a blanket airdrop imo
@Fiskantes makes sense that airdrops prioritise addresses likely to participate in the network
was never about being a ubi replacement (lol)
thinking of airdrops as free utility (vs free money) is the way imo
@Fiskantes@NFTX_ giving up the unique defi property of LP tokens in favour of optimisations .... hmm
sounds like uniswap is now closer to an automated onchain variant of a clob
i was hoping it’d be a bit more than that
@Superno14460256@Rewkang@Bancor@BreederDodo it’s bearish for oracles if u believe price feeds are a big driver for oracle usage medium term. but with scaling solutions, (1) is at least partially taken care of, and (2) only applies to spot markets; so not that significant
@Superno14460256@Rewkang@Bancor@BreederDodo when there is reliance on external price sources, pools face (1) implementation problems, and (2) dependency issues
(1) is from ethereum inefficiency, (2) is that it restricts its use case to assets with existing markets
@Fiskantes this seems to be an improvement over situations where functionality *can* be impacted by token price (like snx)
functionality that’s resistant to external market pressures seems like a big plus 👍
no comment on IL insurance
(also - i hold no bnt)
@Fiskantes i think you’re correct, but the minting by itself shouldn’t impact price - because minted tokens are owned by the protocol
so functionality of bancor is not impacted by dumps
