It has been about 2 months since I went down the DeFi rabbit hole and my only regret is not starting it earlier. I went from "wow, 8-10% yield on USD using BlockFi/Celsius" to "wow, 100% yield on CakeDeFi" to thousands or millions of yield in DeFi.
TITAN-IRON: US$100
WEXpoly-MATIC: US$50 (got free WEXpoly from airdrop)
IRON-USDC: US$200
Including the capital for these LPs for more context/information:
QUICK-MATIC: SG$3,000 (not including ADDY and MATIC rewards)
QI-MIMATIC: US$100
MALT-DAI: US$200 (this is likely a 100% loss, waiting for the compensation plan. lol)
All these have their risks and it is all about managing your risk. Generally, I would only put US$100 into risky farms and US$200 into new/algo stablecoin LP. I have taken profit for one of the farm (TITAN-MATIC) where I turned US$100 to US$500 in about a month. Despite the crash at the end of May and one of my farms being exploited by a hacker (DeFi - Risks and Dangers (I Lost 97% Overnight)), I am still making a profit :) Ops, I digress. Let's go back to CakeDeFi.
Again, I am not going to explain what impermanent loss is (homework for readers interested in providing liquidity) but it sort of work in my way because if I were to remove liquidity now (it would have been even better a few days ago but as usual I procrastinated), I will be getting back more BTC and less DFI (as the price of BTC fell more than the price of DFI).
After removing liquidity, I transferred all the BTC out to BlockFi with a withdrawal fee of 0.0005 BTC (~SG$27) to accrue more interest. Meanwhile, I am still trying to figure the most cost-effective way to bridge my BTC to Polygon with the plan to deposit them into Aave as collateral so I can borrow more to farm in Curve.
Aave is where I am keeping the most of my crypto now if you are wondering and I blogged about it here - DeFi - Aave, QuickSwap and Adamant on Polygon (Matic Network). The withdrawal of BTC from CakeDeFi is being tracked as a withdrawal of capital to be deployed elsewhere, hence the current capital for CakeDeFi is:
4th April 2021 - Bought 0.06289197 BTC for SG$5,000
15th June 2021 - Withdraw 0.03445945 BTC which was purchased at ~SG$2,740 (5,000 / 0.06289197 x 0.03445945)
Capital: SG$2,260.00
Current: SG$2,931.49
Anyway, I have blogged about different ways to leverage crypto to build wealth for people with different risk appetites:
The safer approach using stablecoins
Risky approach but more hassle-free
- CakeDeFi - New Plan/Strategy
Highest risk and you are on your own
- DeFi apps on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) such as PancakeSwap and PancakeBunny
