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)
