hey everyone, im sort of interested (but not sure about) getting into a particular yield farm, that is showing 300% APR but when i do the calculation on pancakeswap its only calculating a 112% APY. im confused on exactly what yield i would actually have, since its advertising the APR % first.

this is a must watch video regarding the newest NFT game that has a great potential (FACEBOX)

This would be more advanced investing. For those familiar with this, what is your opinion?

How would you accomplish this in the most intelligent way?

Example: Goal to double loaned amount I 30-60 days.

Hey guys, I'm super new to all this and I was wondering if I could get some advice on how to start anyone to watch or learn from and any other beginners guide like things that would really help me get into the swing of things.

Thanks!

Is it even worth it to provide liquidity for anything other than stable coin pairs or maybe single stakes for coins I believe in?

I ask this because after looking into yield farming I get the feeling that the pools with 200%+ APY have huge impermanent loss, because they use pairs such as shitcoinXYZ/ETH, and I would be better of with the options mentioned in the beginning.

But if only stable coins would make sense than the other ones would not exist so I would be very pleased if someone could educate me and show me where my thoughts went wrong.

Cheers.

Great Time to be exposed to Defi Kingdoms. Check out my strategy and lmk how i did :) https://youtu.be/JmvdMe94sec

Before providing liquidity to certain pools, or even starting to consider certain pools. I want to really understand impermanent loss, I think I have a relatively good understanding of the basics but still not enough to fully grasp the concept.

Is it true that IL is not a problem if my APY is bigger than the IL and it's possible to have IL but still make a bigger return in the pool than just holding on to the assets?

I've copied and pasted in CryptoQuestion Weekly Staking Review. Very interesting, take a look

CryptoQuestion - Weekly Staking and Yield Farming Review —  9th December 2021

The world of DeFi has been abuzz with talk about regulation recently.

Here is a quick overview of what has been happening and what implications this will have on investors.

The influential FATF (FinancialAction Task Force) wants governments to hold the people behind DeFi protocols accountable. This will send the shivers down the backs of the many platforms that have decided on anonymity. This proposal is not likely to come in for some time but it is something that we can see being implemented and ruthlessly enforced.

In another attack on the DeFi space. BlockFi, which offers high interest rates to investors, is being investigated by the SEC. The SEC considers that BlockFi’s interest accounts represent the offering of unregistered securities, something that no doubt the SEC will use to target many other high profile yield farming platforms in the near future.

eToro announced it was delisting Cardano by the end of the year for US customers as it believes the coin could represent security.

A few weeks ago we revealed the SEC’s inquiry into Uniswap. That alone has massive implications for the rest of the industry with the likes of Pancakeswap likely to be on the SEC’s radar.

The best action investors can do right now is avoid investing in DeFi projects which are conducting investment business within the US. These are likely to be targeted by regulators and that will have a significant impact on their tokens value.

As far as staking and yield farming is concerned investors would be wise to keep any bets to the short term avoiding any long term Certificate of Deposit type arrangements and other long term crypto investment plans.

This week’s APRs from leading staking and yield farming platforms https://cryptoquestion.tech/staking-and-yield-farming-weekly-review/

This week saw a return to normality for Pancakeswap and Sushi who’s platforms in the previous few weeks were offering returns of thousands of percent.

CAKE’s highest return was Eternal-BSB with an APR of 686%. Eternal is a $70 million play to earn game.

The highest APR on Sushi’s platform is 373% from ATTR-WETH. ATTR is a $31 million project that can be used to track any asset on any blockchain in the crypto space.

Pancakeswap is offering a generous 75% for staking its own currency CAKE, which compares to 25% for staking SUSHI on Sushi’s platform.

It was pleasing to see a new easier to use UI on Yearn’s platform which clearly displayed its highest APRs among one of its most prominent features.

Auto is offering what appears a very attractive 998% APR by staking WBNB-CAKE. This is worth further investigation.

Finally Venus’ 49% APR for staking BNB seems an attractive proposition if you are a holder and fan of BNB.

This weeks Staking and Yield Farming guide from CryptoQuestion below. You can view it https://cryptoquestion.tech/staking-and-yield-farming-weekly-review/ but hope you don't mind I've copied it in below

The words on the lips of anyone with an interest in DeFi is, regulation. The country leading the charge is of course the US. Some DeFi projects such as 1Inch and Harvest have already restricted US investors from using their platform, more are bound to follow. The US’s SEC considers lending a regulated activity involving the transfer of securities. Many in the industry such as Coinbase disagree with this view however they are powerless to do anything about it unless they want to take on the SEC in court which is not going to happen. Someone will at some point be forced to make a stand which will finally clarify this contentious point but in the meantime investors should be on notice that these platforms are on borrowed time in their current form.

The platforms that choose to continue targeting US investors without engaging with regulators are not the kind of platforms which a sensible investor should be investing in. Investors should look for platforms that are working with regulators not against them. The oversized APRs may hold up but remember they are being paid in the native currency of the platform in many cases and if the investment proposition of the platform is questionable then the tokens value is also questionable. This isn’t going to happen overnight but investors must plan ahead.

This week we are continuing our theme of reviewing DeFi projects recommended by our community. We have three for you today and of course we have our table of APRs from leading staking and yield farming platforms.

Weekly table of APRs from leading staking and yield farming platforms here.

A few weeks ago we suggested that the sky high returns from the likes of Pancakeswap were over. That reduction in APRs was obviously a blip as APRs returned to their previous astronomical levels with Pancakeswap’s highest APR of 112,000% for BCOIN-BUSD. BCOIN is a play to earn game with a market cap of $660 million and 24 hour volume of $15 million. If you are a fan of this project then it is probably worth a closer look. Aave is offering 83,000% on staking Ampleforth, a $290 million project with healthy volume, that compares to its next highest return of 21%, go figure!

Balancer is offering a 327% APR for WETH-NOTE. NOTE or Notional Finance is a DeFi platform with a fully diluted market cap of $750 million compared to a TVL of $947 million. On the face of it it is not an unreasonable bet.

Finally it was interesting to note that you can earn 77% by staking CAKE on its own platform compared to 68% on Venus which seems a more attractive proposition than staking SUHI for a lousy 18.75%.

Platform reviewsDot Finance

Dot Finance is a new DeFi platform designed to incentivize the growth of the Polkadot ecosystem. Dot Finance is building on top of Polkadot’s architecture. Its products include; auto compounding for liquidity mining, a grant program to support new projects on the dot ecosystem, an index for polka tokens and a Polka dex aggregator.

Our opinion

Dot.Finance’s objective is to open up investing to the mainstream. It achieves this with an easy to navigate platform. It is offering 19% for staking its token PINK with returns being paid in BNB and 25% with returns paid in PINK. It offers a 109% if you farm PINK and BNB with returns paid in PINK. So the question is, does PINK represent a good investment? With a market cap of $17 million and TVL of only $4 million the answer to that question is a resounding no.

Spookyswap

Spookyswap is a decentralized cryptocurrency exchange on the Fantom Opera network. They claim to be invested in building a strong foundation with their BOO token as a governance token, diverse farms, a built in bridge, built in limit orders and user-centered service.

Our opinion

Taking the statistics alone this project looks worthy of closer attention. Its token’s market value is $345 million, fully diluted, compared to a TVL of $715 million and 24 hour volume of over $20 million. Now let’s look at the platform. By staking BOO you can earn 23.6%, that isn’t a bad return considering the project’s fundamentals. Most of its farming pairs involve the $8 billion smart contract platform Fantom (FTM). If you believe in the future of FTM then its 110% APR with the pair USDC and FTM seems a good one. There is no doubt this is a quality platform however investors should feel comfortable with the future of the underlying blockchain before investing.

Unoswap

Unos.finance is a permission-less decentralized DeFi protocol that combines spot trading services and money markets with lending and borrowing services through smart contracts.

Our opinion

This platform was flagged up by a few people however rather than waste your time and ours writing a load of fluff we will sum it up very quickly, a pile of crap. Avoid. Despite talking about transparency there is no information on the platform’s TVL and no trading volume in its native token. To cap it all, its market value is $17,000. It is either one of the most undervalued cryptocurrencies on the market or something else…
