Potions

Potions are a key component of the closed volatility farming ecosystem, enabling users to benefit from market fluctuations and generate yield through creating derivatives, providing liquidity and/or executing arbitrager opportunities. Potions leverage parallel liquidity model to create a closed ecosystem for democratized arbitrage.

How Potions work:

  1. Creating Derivatives: Original assets (e.g., YEL) are wrapped into derivative tokens (e.g., lYEL) through the Potions ecosystem.

  2. Parallel Liquidity Pools: A secondary liquidity pool is created with the derivative token (e.g., lYEL/USDT), existing alongside the original liquidity pool (e.g., YEL/USDT).

  3. Price Variances: Since derivative and original assets are not directly tied, price discrepancies naturally occur between these pools, creating arbitrage opportunities.

Key Benefits of Potions:

  • Yield Generation: Users collect competitive yield by holding derivative tokens or providing liquidity;

  • Arbitrage Opportunities: Structured price variances between pools allow users to capitalize on market fluctuations;

  • Sustainability: The system ensures a balanced ecosystem by incentivizing all participant roles through rewards and fees;

  • User Flexibility: Options for simple or advanced strategies cater to both beginner and experienced users.
