Leverage Tokens are now live on @ethereum Mainnet, bringing one-click leverage strategies to DeFi’s deepest markets - powered by @MorphoLabs 🦋.
This could impact roughly 20% of DeFi TVL. Here's how: 🧵
/1
Over $120B in DeFi liquidity flows through lending protocols. By some calculations, 20% of this liquidity is manually looped to reach a leveraged position.
Manual leverage is:
🕐 Time-consuming
⛽ Expensive
🔁 Stressful
Leverage Tokens fix this.
/2

In their first form, Leverage Tokens take yield-bearing assets and automate the looping process.
Anything that earns yield and has a lending market can become a Leverage Token -- opening endless possibilities for strategies and amplified returns.
Excited to introduce the two Leverage Tokens now available on Mainnet (with many more to come)! 👇
/3
First up is the RLP/USDC Leverage Token.
This LT pushes @resolvlabs RLP yield further. The new RLP/USDC Leverage Token targets a 6.75x ratio -- higher than most DeFi platforms. This LT's leverage and strategy parameters were analyzed carefully and backtested to optimize for onchain looping behavior.

These backtested results of the RLP/USDC LT highlight its performance vs simply holding RLP.
/5

Next up is a wstETH/ETH Leverage Token with @LidoFinance.
Maximize ETH staking yield. The wstETH/ETH 25x Leverage Token delivers the highest leverage on Mainnet, optimized to rebalance and capitalize on staking rewards.

Backtesting shows the wstETH/ETH Leverage Token delivering stronger performance than a simple wstETH hold.

TradFi is already obsessed with Leverage. Let's scale it efficiently onchain.
This is only the beginning. Leverage Tokens are permissionless, unlocking endless new strategies ahead.
Simpler. Smarter. Seamless.
