$DEBASE - A Composable/Modular Algorithmic Stable Coin Protocol

https://t.co/v3383S9VsP
https://t.co/mAul2JSyWE

A guest post, written by the Debase community.

 2/

Algorithmic stable coin protocols & in particular elastic supply tokens (e.g. AMPL, Base) have emerged as contenders for decentralized price-stable assets. The premise of such tokens is to convert price-volatility into supply-volatility, in search of a price peg (e.g. 1 USD)
3/

The idea is that at sufficiently large market capitalisations supply-volatility will taper off and you are left with a price-stable asset. So far this has not been the case
4/

Projects like Ampleforth continue to experience sustained price and supply volatility even as market capitalisation has ballooned. Subsequent iterations have tried to improve on this model by modifying one or more of the static parameters; BASE, RMPL etc., come to mind
5/

While the subsequent iterations modified a fixed set of ‘flexible’ parameters, the fundamental mechanism of elastic supply tokens remains static. Debase is the first elastic supply token to introduce completely dynamic parameters (16+).
6/

Debase is the most dynamic algorithmic stable coin:

1. A composable and modular protocol
2. Infinite iteration and experimentation, virtually any DeFi composition is possible, mediated through Debase’s in-built gov. layer
3. Over 16 dynamic parameters
7/

4. Composability w/ a wide range of DeFi elements appeals to the full spectrum of stakeholders in the DeFi ecosystem, including but not limited to yield farmers, options traders, other stable coins/DeFi projects who can build "stabilizer pools".
5. Stabilizer pools (s-pools)
8/

S-pools act as plugins that add additional logic/function, to stabilize $DEBASE, to the core protocol. Ecosystem participants are incentivized to coordinate & ensure Debase gravitates to a peg. It is only limited by smart contract capability & what governance permits
9/

Given the infinitely modular nature of Debase, It can absorb innovative new ideas in its stride as it evolves and matures. S-pools with various, unique strategies will sit on a spectrum of passive to active designs
10/

Passive S-pools:
These do not have an active agent of stabilization, and rely on pure game theory to stabilize supply (and therefore price).

For example, a S-pool that rewards stakers with $DEBASE if there are less than 'n' number of negative rebases over m time periods
11/

Active S-pools:
These have an active agent of stabilization, for example a S-pool that acts as a yield vault. This vault may take $DEBASE/DAI LP tokens or assets as capital, use a yield farming strategy and set aside part of the profits to peg $DEBASE to its target price
12/

S-pools will exist on a spectrum between the two extreme types of pools (active and passive).

Debase needs to attract as many diverse strategists as possible - to this end it is already working on onboarding these stakeholders to governance e.g. 88MPH - governance partner.
13/

How can all the active/passive S-pools coordinate to stabilise $DEBASE, despite their varied interests? Aligned incentives. Debase’s incentive structure enables governance ($DEGOV) to share protocol profits in DAI/other assets in treasury when $DEBASE is stable
14/

Governance plays an important role in growth & stabilization. Because governance can be rewarded for driving utility, governance partners are incentivised to ulitilize Debase as a stable reserve. Large DeFi protocols, once onboarded to governance, can push for stable utility
15/

For instance, wrapped $DEBASE when it is largely stable with a small tx fee on every transaction that goes to s-pool rewards fund controlled by governance. Large DeFi protocols, once onboarded, would be incentivised to push $DEBASE as a DeFi stable reserve currency.

Big #Altcoin thread for $ALTS: Where are we at in the cycle, how long do we have, is this #ALTSEASON, what are the relationships like, all of that. $BTC #Bitcoin $ETH $LINK #Altcoins


First: What is #Altseason? The true altszn was seen in 2017/2018, where $BTC fell off a cliff and $ALTS were the 'safe haven' from btc dumping. ALTS went literally 1000%+ (many much higher). Since that time we have seen many #Altcoin pumps, starting primarily in late Q4 each year

These Altcoin pumps are usually 20-1000% gains on nearly the ENTIRE #Altcoin market. This is awesome to see and genius season- you can't lose. Dips are bought up quickly and both ALT/USD and ALT/BTC pairs pump HUGE. Are we currently in that environment? I'm not quite sure tbh.

I think that $BTC still has a little more gas in the tank, which would result in ALT/BTC pairs suffering IMO. You can see more of my thoughts on #Bitcoin below, but I think that we could see 1 more shakeout + then we could see a big run starting in December 2020 for $ALTS

As an #Altcoin trader, you need to understand several things for the environment in which to trade $ALTS successfully:
- $BTC PA
- $BTC.D
-Seasonality
- $ETH
- and much more

Bitfinex files discovery in "Yo bro, where did our $800 million go?" action and it is every bit as interesting as you'd expect it to

Here's their CFO describing their agreement (which we know from other litigation was never contractualized because, presumably because money launderers hate paper trails):


Bitfinex's CFO was shocked, shocked to learn that the money launderer they engaged to provide money laundering services while I-swear-to-God-this-is-an-actual-quote "we learned to bank like criminals" may have from time to time lied to banks.


"Institutional constraints" means, here, "We were attempting to avoid velocity checks placed by our banking partners to detect fraud and money laundering, which would have detected our fraud and money laundering."


Money at the speed of code, yadda yadda yadda, the Bitcoin economy is surprisingly blasé when several hundred million dollars is in an interstitial state for months.

In a situation never before encountered by a financial institution: the check was not, in fact, in the mail.

1/ Fear and Bitcoin.

Whenever Bitcoin has a bull run, naysayers try to cope with missing the boat by rationalizing why it will fail through “Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt” or what we Bitcoiners have nicknamed “FUD.”

How to Trade without Fear, Stress or Anxiety. 💯

Trading should bring wealth, happiness and peace.
Not stress and sleepless nights.

Here is how to trade without dying faster.

Please share to de-stress the world.

A Thread.

The reasons for feeling anxious and Stressed.

1. Too high Position Size.
2. No Exit Plan.
3. Almost no Entry strategy.

We will learn about them below and try to find a solution.

1. POSITION SIZE.
Position size should be equal to what you're willing to lose and not cry over.

Eg. If your position size is 10K, you should be able to lose 10K without it making you depressed.

It doesn't mean you throw away 10K as a random experiment.

If you're stressed? Reduce your Position size, Now!

But If I trade with such a small position size, it won't be much Profitable?

-Profits and wealth are built slowly, trade with small amounts, built your system, profits will accumulate.

Small Position size. Low Stress. Better life.

Remember, you don't need a lot to become big.

1% gain per day compounds to 3700% Return per year.

- If Stressed or anxious, reduce your position size.

Switch to smaller position which doesn't make you feel sleepless.

Where should I start?
1) Is Blockfi profitable?
2) How much money does BlockFi have on its balance sheet?
3) Is the yield that BlockFi pays to its depositors earned or subsidized by billionaire investors?
4) Has BlockFi ever been profitable?
5) Are you planning to go public?

A thread on the life and achievements of Muhiyudin Sayyid Abdul Qadir Jillani RadiAllah who served Islam infinitely as the Reviver (Mujadid) of the 11th Century!


Muhiyudin Sayyid Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA) was one of the greatest Islamic Saint, Scholar, and Jurist. The honorific Muhiyudin denotes his status with many Sufis as a "reviver of religion". Jilani refers to his place of birth. He also carried the epithet Baghdadi.

[1]

Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani was born on the eve of the 2nd of Ramadan 470 AH. His birth was a great blessing for the Ummah. It was the arrival of the Sultan al-Awliya (King of the Awliya) of that era, which had been foretold for centuries before his birth.

[2]

When Hazrat Abdul Qadir Jillani was asked by someone what brought him to his high spiritual level, he said, The truthfulness which I promised to my mother. He related the following story:
"One day, on the eve of Eid al-Adhā, I went to my mother, who was then a widow and..

[3]

..and requested her, 'Send me to the path of Truth, give me permission to go to Baghdad to acquire knowledge, to be with the wise and those who are close to Allah. She cried, but she brought out 80 pieces of gold, which was all that my father had left as inheritance.

1. Let's talk about Albanians. No, not THOSE Albanians, in the Balkans. The Caucasian Albanians, the pre-Turkish inhabitants of the land now known as Azerbaijan. 🇦🇿


2. Yeah, I know, there's also an "Iberia" there, which should cause even more confusion (with Spain), but let's focus on "Albania".

3. This ancient church in the village of Nij (or Nic), just south of the Caucasus Mountains, belongs to the Udi people, a Christian minority in Azerbaijan descended from the area’s pre-Turkic Caucasian Albanians. 🇦🇿


4. Nearby are the ruins of the Caucasian Albanian capital of “old” Gabala (Qebele), where I was given a personal tour by one of the resident archeologists (just for showing up). 🇦🇿


5. Only a very tiny portion of the extensive site has been excavated. “Every place you dig,” the archeologist told me, “you will find artifacts.” This whole field is a city waiting to be uncovered.

A brief analysis and comparison of the CSS for Twitter's PWA vs Twitter's legacy desktop website. The difference is dramatic and I'll touch on some reasons why.

Legacy site *downloads* ~630 KB CSS per theme and writing direction.

6,769 rules
9,252 selectors
16.7k declarations
3,370 unique declarations
44 media queries
36 unique colors
50 unique background colors
46 unique font sizes
39 unique z-indices

https://t.co/qyl4Bt1i5x


PWA *incrementally generates* ~30 KB CSS that handles all themes and writing directions.

735 rules
740 selectors
757 declarations
730 unique declarations
0 media queries
11 unique colors
32 unique background colors
15 unique font sizes
7 unique z-indices

https://t.co/w7oNG5KUkJ


The legacy site's CSS is what happens when hundreds of people directly write CSS over many years. Specificity wars, redundancy, a house of cards that can't be fixed. The result is extremely inefficient and error-prone styling that punishes users and developers.

The PWA's CSS is generated on-demand by a JS framework that manages styles and outputs "atomic CSS". The framework can enforce strict constraints and perform optimisations, which is why the CSS is so much smaller and safer. Style conflicts and unbounded CSS growth are avoided.
