How the System Balances
Liquidity Provision:
Earn depositors supply stablecoins, incentivized by high yields
These stablecoins are used to purchase ERC20 tokens, creating liquidity for borrowers
Price Discovery:
ERC20 sellers can sell tokens slightly above market rate
The arbitrage opportunity attracts sellers, ensuring a steady supply of tokens
Competition among sellers naturally stabilizes prices close to market rates
Borrowing Demand:
Attractive loan terms drive demand from borrowers
Borrowers' repayments in stablecoins flow back to Earn depositors
Yield Generation:
Borrower repayments and fees generate yield for Earn depositors
High yields attract more stablecoin deposits, completing the cycle
