Liquity V2 to Introduce User-Set Interest Rates
Liquity V2 to Introduce User-Set Interest Rates
🔥 Bold move by Liquity
Liquity, a decentralized borrowing protocol, is set to launch its V2 update featuring user-set interest rates. This significant development allows users to have more control over their borrowing costs. The update, scheduled for July 8, 2024, builds upon the protocol's earlier announcements and preparations. Liquity has published a detailed blog post explaining the rationale and mechanics behind this new feature, which aims to enhance the protocol's flexibility and user experience.

🎣 BOLD Pool Launches
A new **BOLD stablecoin pool** has launched on Curve Finance, offering liquidity providers attractive yield opportunities. **Key Details:** - Quad pool includes USDFI, USDaf, ebUSD, and BOLD tokens - Available on Ethereum mainnet - **Up to 74% APR** for liquidity depositors **How to Participate:** - Access the pool directly on [Curve Finance](https://www.curve.finance/dex/ethereum/pools/factory-stable-ng-564/withdraw) - Boost yields through [Stake DAO](https://www.stakedao.org/yield?search=lqtyforks) - Choose your preferred frontend at [Liquity](https://www.liquity.org/frontend-v2) This follows previous BOLD yield opportunities, including a quad pool with fxUSD/USDC/USDaf/BOLD that offered around 40% APR. *Consider the risks before providing liquidity to any DeFi protocol.*
🐻 BOLD Yields Drop
**BOLD stablecoin yields on Berachain have decreased significantly** from 282% to 30% APY within a week. Liquidity providers can still earn **30% APY** on the BOLD/NECT/HONEY stable pool through [BeraBorrow](https://app.beraborrow.com/vault/deposit/bex-NECT-BOLD-HONEY). **Key benefits:** - Auto-compounded yields - Additional Infrared Finance points - Stable asset exposure across three tokens The dramatic yield reduction suggests either increased liquidity or reduced reward emissions as the initial "fork rewards season" momentum cools down.
🗳️ LQTY Stakers Vote
LQTY stakers can now vote on a new Merkl PIL initiative to provide **BOLD rewards** for Uniswap V4 liquidity providers. The proposal targets a BOLD/USDC pool on Uniswap V4 with specific reward distribution: - 75% for fees - 20% for BOLD liquidity - 5% for USDC liquidity The initiative aims to: - Boost BOLD demand - Strengthen the peg - Reduce slippage This will test how Uniswap performs against other DEXs like Curve, Ekubo, and Gyroscope. **Time-sensitive**: Only downvotes will be possible starting tomorrow.
