Faclon retroactively checks Pendle YT and LP points (disputed)
Falcon Finance (USDf), a stablecoin project under DWF Labs, announced the day before yesterday that it will trace the points of YT and LP on Pendle, with a tracing points multiplier of 36 times . This means that users who previously used Pendle for blind mining will have a higher points rate than users who statically hold USDf (6 times), and this points rate advantage will most likely continue in the future.
It is worth mentioning that USDF encountered concentrated FUD yesterday, with the focus of doubts mainly on the reserve situation and source of income. In response, Falcon responded by disclosing the audit report conducted in cooperation with Harris Trotter, and Andrei Grachev, managing partner of DWF Labs, also made further explanations.
Among USDfs reserve assets, stablecoins and BTC account for about 89% (about US$565 million), and altcoins account for about 11% (about US$67.5 million). The reserve assets have been audited and the current over-collateralization ratio is 116%.
In terms of yield, the composition of the agreement income is as follows: basis trading income accounts for 44%, arbitrage trading income accounts for 34%, and pledge income accounts for 22%.
Affected by FUD, USDf was temporarily unpegged yesterday, with the lowest price falling to $0.8799. With the official response, it has gradually recovered to $0.9946. You can decide whether to continue to participate based on your own risk appetite.
