The actual DeFi exchanges literally cannot lose customer money like FTX b/c they don’t custody it! They’re still humming along. This is why it’s so critical that we allow DeFi to continue to grow & innovate in the areas of governance, usability, and risk management.

Over the last 7 days, the DeFi Pulse Index grew 10% when measured in ETH. $DPI Best performers were @compoundfinance, @aave and @iearnfinance. Compound was even up in USD terms, despite the overall market rout.

For ETH2x-FLI-P, the Ethereum 2x Flexible Leverage Index, that uses @AaveAave's Polygon lending market, numbers look even better: ETH supply rate: 110% USDC borrow rate: 0.68% Note: These are annualized spot rates that can be highly variable.
Currently, ETH2x-FLI earns more on its @compoundfinance deposits than it pays for its debt. ETH supply rate: 2.1% USDC borrow rate: 1.8% Therefore the FLI's Collateralized Debt Position nets 2 * 2.1 - 1.8 = 2.4%
