Aight aight, my bad. Let me explain this so everyone understands. Let’s start from the top. Why hold $S when your $S could earn yield? People want their $S to work, and right now, $stS is the simplest way to do that. It pays 4.13% just by holding it. No complex smart contracts, no additional exposure, just native $S yield. But what if 4.13% ain’t cutting it? You’ve got two typical paths: 1) Pair $stS with another token in an LP (and take on LP risk + impermanent loss). 2) Chase juiced yields from new, unproven protocols inflated by emissions. Not ideal. Especially for capital allocators managing $100M+, they want something efficient, scalable, and clean. Enter @aave. The most battle-tested protocol in DeFi. With $stS listed, it unlocks a way to optimise your $S yield with a trusted, low-risk foundation. Here’s the basic play, > Supply $stS as collateral on Aave > Borrow against it. Cool, but how does that increase your $stS yield? Looping. Looping = leveraging exposure to a specific asset. Let’s walk through a simple example most degens know, a classic long position. > supply $S on Aave > borrow $USDC > swap $USDC back to $S > supply that $S again > repeat You’re now leveraged long on $S, your exposure increases with each loop. If $S goes up, your gains are amplified. But with Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs) like $stS, the looping strategy doesn't leverage price exposure; it leverages yield exposure. Here’s how, > supply $stS > borrow $S > swap $S to $stS > supply more $stS > repeat Now remember, you’re borrowing against an asset that’s already earning 4.13% yield. Unlike the $S/$USDC loop, this isn’t about catching a price swing. Because $stS tracks the price of $S + yield, you’re stacking exposure to yield while neutral on price. Let’s say you have $10,000 in $stS, that’s $413/year in yield. Loop it to 10x exposure, you’re now earning $4,130/year. So… is it free money? Not exactly. Your loop is only profitable if the borrow rate on $S is less than the yield on $stS. Right now, that means borrowing has to cost you less than 4.13%. This proposal? It optimizes the $stS Aave market to make that loop easier and more efficient. > tuning parameters to reduce friction > Incentivising with $wS rewards > recycling $stS collector revenue back into the loop TLDR: It aims to make that loop profitable for the next 6 months to offer the best return on $S yield generation with no exposure besides $stS, $S and @aave.
