Compound Finance is advancing its strategy to capture Oracle Extractable Value (OEV) through a new proposal to integrate Api3 across all Compound deployments.​ This follows earlier efforts with Oval integration, which identified up to $90M in potential OEV from Compound V2 & V3 protocols.​

  • Key Integration: Proposed immediate Api3 implementation across all deployments
  • Previous Initiative: Earlier Oval integration aimed at OEV capture
  • Potential Value: Up to $90M identified in extractable value
  • Technical Approach: Leverages Flashbots MEV-share technology

OEV-Boosted Morpho Markets Launch with API3 and Yearn

Morpho Labs introduces enhanced lending markets that capture and redistribute liquidation value back to market users. This new system, called OEV-Boosted Morpho Markets, is built through a collaboration between Morpho Labs, Yearn Finance, and API3. Recent market activity demonstrated the potential, with $19M in liquidations on Morpho Labs. A successful test on a tBTC/USDC lending market showed effective OEV capture. Key features: - Liquidation value retained within markets - Automated yield boosting - Integration with Yearn's curation - Powered by API3's infrastructure [Learn more about OEV-Boosted Markets](https://blog.api3.org/introducing-oev-boosted-morpho-markets/)

OEV Network Revolutionizes Oracle Updates and L2 Performance

OEV (Oracle Extractable Value) Network is transforming how oracle updates and liquidations work on L2s: - Eliminates block-level spam during oracle updates and liquidations - Creates an efficient market for oracle updates where searchers can bid for valuable updates - Moves data competition off-chain, improving L2 performance - Replaces probabilistic arms races with definitive outcomes - Allows searchers to update prices at optimal times The system addresses data feed granularity issues while making the entire process more efficient and predictable.

ETHPrague Conference to Address DeFi Value Recapture Through OEV

ETHPrague Conference to Address DeFi Value Recapture Through OEV

The upcoming ETHPrague conference (May 27-29) will feature discussions on Optimistic Execution Value (OEV) in DeFi protocols. The event aims to educate developers and protocol owners about: - Methods to recapture value currently being lost in DeFi operations - Implementation strategies for OEV integration - Revenue enhancement opportunities for protocols The conference follows a successful presentation at ETH Bratislava, where similar topics were explored. Attendees can find representatives for detailed discussions by looking for Api3-branded participants.

Oracle Migration Guide: Earn Rewards and Enhance Security

Oracle Migration Guide: Earn Rewards and Enhance Security

A new migration guide helps lending protocols transition from Chainlink to API3, offering multiple benefits: - Earn revenue through Oracle Extractable Value (OEV) Rewards - Enhance security with multi-oracle support - Seamless upgrade process that maintains system stability The guide comes as lending protocols increasingly recognize untapped revenue potential in oracle services. @MetisDevs workshop provides implementation support for protocols looking to upgrade their oracle infrastructure.
