Today in DeFi - Saddle Finance, SushiSwap x FuruCombo, And more...
Saddle Finance
Saddle Finance, a BTC oriented fork of Curve, launched yesterday. However all was not well.
An imbalance in pool assets allowed arbitrage traders to get disporportional amounts of WBTC from early depositors.
With the arbitrage closed, it may be safer for depositors to LP, although I would still advise users to understand how Curve works and read the audit reports for Saddle before depositing.
The risk profile for traders is however, quite different and using Saddle to swap assets should be as safe as using Curve, mStable, or any of the Curve-like AMMs.
Today in DeFi is sponsored by Aave.
Aave is a decentralised, open-source, and non-custodial liquidity protocol for earning interest on deposits and borrowing assets. It tokenizes deposits as aTokens, which accrue interest in real time. Aave also features access to Flash Loans and Credit Delegation as uncollateralised loan options.
