migration has started.
all @yieldbasis LPs should take action.
you can migrate normally, no rush.
• migration is now available and recommended for btc markets. if you have positions, they will appear automatically in [MY MARKETS] -> choose pool -> MIGRATE
• TRD in the eth pool is currently not optimal for migration, it might be better to wait.
• 1m cap per market is available in v3 without migration (btc pools already filled up)
Hotfix for some withdrawal errors observed @yieldbasis (and more proper allocation of crvUSD for the markets).
Please vote if you have veYB!

📺 New episode is live!
Michael Egorov, (@newmichwill) founder of Curve and YieldBasis, joins BitcoinYield to break down how YieldBasis turns BTC volatility into DeFi yield without traditional impermanent loss.
We cover:
• How @yieldbasis solves for impermanent loss
• why standard AMMs are lossy for long-term BTC holders
• how constant-leverage vaults preserve spot exposure
• where the yield comes from
• CurveUSD mechanics under the hood
• YieldBasis V3 upgrades and smoother liquidity movement
For serious Bitcoin deployers looking at higher % on-chain yield, this is one of the more technical conversations we’ve done. 👇
"Market forces drive these APR's to be equalized." 🎙️ @newmichwill@yieldbasis has one of the only mechanisms where two different yield sources can be chosen once you've deposited and received ybBTC.
You're probably not watching but since no one will say it, I will.
Six hours since this post and since then:
WETH: Filled
tBTC: Filled
Four pools filled in total. The hybrid pools are moving right behind them.
cbBTC hybrid at 75.32%. WBTC at 15.43%. tBTC at 14.34%. 26.69%. Very interesting watch how the market is rushing over those yields.
Like I had often said, the market has capital ready to deploy. It just needs somewhere it actually trusts.
@yieldbasis is one of them.
We are getting close guys, please vote "yes" here https://t.co/7KU2FuGql9
Somehow, @yieldbasis is a real DAO, and YOU are in charge of getting new things in!
Curve's v3 is forcing Yeldbasis LPs to move.
As you know, @yieldbasis runs leveraged BTC and WETH liquidity on top of @CurveFinance. Those underlying pools just got upgraded to v3; since YB contracts are immutable, every existing LP has to migrate manually.
The migration is a single transaction and the TRD is almost 0%, so the cost will be low and compensated.
v3 improvements worth noting:
> Admin fee cap drops from 100% to 90%, meaning more fees flow to LPs
> Smoother rebalancing; no more huge TRDs
On the incentive side, 5.65M $YB in remaining Season 2 rewards go exclusively to migrated LPs. Distribution is split into four tranches. I suggest you to read about it but I'll be moving my funds asap.
Inflation is still at 100% for the coming year. I know the fees for lockers are high, so I’m not investing yet. However, I like all the moves the team is making, and I’m sure that by the next cycle, this could become a huge runner.
Another vote (7th!) for these new pools to receive YB emissions.
The vote uses predicted gauge addresses (which are deterministic) and verifies that they match, only executable after the previous six

V3 will be the biggest upgrade to date @yieldbasis
Our most efficient pools yet, introducing newly optimised parameters dialed in across every backtest
V3 is much better equipped to limit drawdowns and TRD for LPs even when volatility of the underlying assets changes
Interviewing @newmichwill tomorrow.

YieldBasis specifically is interesting as it aims to solve the issue of impermanent loss. Opening the door for >10% returns common in AMMs.
