In leveraged strategies, every sub-optimal swap has an amplified impact, a perfect entry is crucial for maximising returns
Executing your manual loops through Kamino Swap ensures you get the best entries and exits, with zero fees and precise execution
Here's how it works⤵️
Using a PYUSD and USDS interest rate arbitrage:
1. Deposit USDS (5.6% APY) as collateral into the Main Market. The collateral generates lending yield and gives you borrowing power
2. Borrow PYUSD (2.5% APY), swap to USDS on Kamino Swap and redeposit. This increases your total deposited amount and borrow power
3. Repeat the process. Each loop increases your effective position size, multiplying your yield
The limit depends on the LTV ratio. With a 90% LTV, you can reach 8.3x leverage through multiple loops.
Looping amplifies both upside and downside. It works best when you have strong conviction on asset appreciation, or when the yield spread between deposits and borrows is favourable.
Rewards:
- Amplified yield on deposits without additional capital outlay
- Increased exposure to assets whose yield you're bullish on
- Capital efficiency
Risks:
- Interest Rate Risk, when borrow rates exceed deposit yields, the strategy becomes unprofitable.
- Rate changes affect leveraged positions more dramatically than unleveraged ones
