馃殌 STG Pool Yields
A major liquidity provider exited Stargate Finance's STG/USDC pool on Ethereum, causing yields to **spike dramatically to 500% vAPR**. The sudden departure created a supply-demand imbalance that benefits remaining liquidity providers with significantly higher returns. - Pool available on [Aura Finance](https://app.aura.finance/#/1/pool/154) - Opportunity may be temporary as new liquidity enters - High yields reflect current market conditions This presents a potential opportunity for liquidity providers willing to fill the gap left by the large withdrawal.
**uniETH Pool Delivers 21% Yield as Gas Fees Drop**
The **uniETH | WETH pool** on Mainnet is currently offering **21% vAPR** through Aura Finance. **Bedrock DeFi** originally designed uniETH for institutional users, but an unexpected shift has occurred. With **gas fees routinely under 1 gwei**, DeFi-native users are now the primary beneficiaries capturing this yield. This represents a notable trend where **lower transaction costs** are making institutional-grade products more accessible to retail DeFi participants.
