Strategy Evaluation

Overview

Projected Returns

Base APY

What level of yield can OUSD collateral earn without including liquidity mining incentives? How does it compare to the current OUSD yield strategies? Keep in mind that new strategies often have investment caps of 100k USDC/USDT/USDS.

Liquidity Incentives

What additional yield can be generated from liquidity mining incentives? Are the bonus tokens locked for a period of time?

Total Projected Yield

Combine the previous two sections in this format, with X as base APY, Y as bonus APY, and Z as the bonus tokens:

USDC: XXX% + YYY% in ZZZ

USDT: XXX% + YYY% in ZZZ

USDS: XXX% + YYY% in ZZZ
