Yearn v3 is live on Polygon PoS, offering a new yield primitive with expanded possibilities for onchain yield.​ It introduces Tokenized Strategies, enabling stand alone, permissionless, single strategy vaults.​ Yearn v3 is designed to be open, permissionless, and composable, serving as the base layer for all DeFi yield.​ New Vaults and strategies will be gradually rolled out, and users are invited to build and explore the v3 bounty program.​

V3 team lead Schlag is back again with another barnstormer of an article about Yearn v3. He built v3, so we like him. But he tried to make us call strategists 'chadegists'... so jury is still out.

Yearn Launches OEV-Boosted USDC Vault with API3 Oracles

Yearn Launches OEV-Boosted USDC Vault with API3 Oracles

Yearn Finance has launched a new USDC vault that leverages API3's Oracle Extractable Value (OEV) network to boost yields. The vault represents a shift in how liquidation value is captured in DeFi lending markets. Previously, liquidator bots competed through gas price auctions, with most value going to validators. API3's OEV network changes this by: - Obscuring oracle data - Auctioning data to liquidators - Redirecting value from validators to protocols Key Benefits: - Enhanced yield potential - Exclusive use of API3 oracles - Increased oracle diversity [Learn More](https://forum.morpho.org/t/new-oev-boosted-vaults-by-yearn-api3/1833)
