Problem: The best way to earn defi yield (leverage borrow/lend) is a pain in the ass to access and manage. Plus, not all of the best yield sources are collateralized. Solution: Odyssey - aggregation of numerous leverage yield strategies - one-click entry/exit - 1st party synthetic lending + yield vaults to collateralize novel defi primitives Here are a couple of my favorite strategies right now for ETH and stablecoins: Best ETH yield (52%): Yieldnest + Morpho + msETH This strategy uses Yieldnest's ynETHx as collateral on Morpho to borrow-and-swap msETH into more ynETHx: ynETHx is a composite LRT + yield aggregator. Underlying ETH are diversified across bluechip protocols like Euler and Curve, as well as restaked into Eigenlayer to earn real ETH yield. This strategy offers multiplied exposure to Yieldnest APY by borrowing msETH (Odyssey's 1st party synthetic ETH stablecoin) and swapping into more ynETHx on Morpho. Earn 52% APY with potential for additional Yieldnest incentives (YND) and Odyssey points considerations. Sleep easy USDC yield (15-20%): Vesper + Metronome + msUSD: This strategy takes advantage of Odyssey's first party protocols (Vesper and Metronome). Vesper is a risk-conscious, highly audited yield aggregator on Mainnet and Base. The USDC vault deposits assets into yield sources like Morpho and Convex. This strategy utilizes Metronome Synth to borrow-and-swap msUSD into more Vesper USDC deposits. Synth offers fixed rate borrowing, so anticipate steady APYs here. Set-and-forget on mainnet (20% APY) or Base (15% APY) + Odyssey points on both. Odyssey activities on Base are gas-free, too.

Tired of lackluster points systems? Discover how multi-point strategies and value-based progression can revolutionize incentives with transparency. It's time to rethink rewards for enhanced user experience and lasting success. Read this thread by @628Labs on transforming the points game.
Current points systems leave teams and users dissatisfied Teams fail to effectively onboard and retain users. Users are faced with intransparency and feel like getting farmed Here are ideas how to change that and make points great again 🧵

Restaking wasn't interesting to me when I first learned about it. Once I learned that it was a means to an end, it blew my mind. EigenLayer is a developer platform for building distributed systems and POS networks. This is a cool report from @FTI_DA with their POV.

To combat opaque risk-taking, @eigencloud has just released an insightful blog on the risk of LRTs. Financialization of LRTs through looping and lack of adequate liquidity negatively affect the uninformed user.
On Liquid Restaking: Risks & Considerations Navigating the complexities of risk is always challenging. Yet, with the rapid expansion of liquid restaking protocols and tokens, highlighting these risks for the community becomes essential. More on this: blog.eigenlayer.xyz/liquid-r…
