RabbitHole rabbithole.mirror.xyz How To Provide Liquidity to the USDC/ETH Pool on Uniswap Tyler Internet 0xF38c March 24th, 2022 GM đ° Welcome to the final stop of this DeFi journey! To cap off our trek, weâll be heading to Uniswap, the leading decentralized crypto trading protocol, and providing liquidity to the USDC/ETH pool. This is the final leg of a 4 part journey - if you havenât yet completed the previous skills you may want to complete those first before continuing on here. Weâve covered a lot of ground, so letâs take a quick look back at what weâve accomplished so far. We began our journey by staking ETH on Lido and, in return, we received some stETH. That stETH is bringing us daily staking rewards as long as we continue to hold it. Then, we lent that stETH on Aave. Finally, we used that stETH as collateral to borrow USDC on Aave. This series of transactions has allowed us to retain ownership of our stETH, continue receiving those staking rewards, and made it possible for us to borrow another liquid asset (USDC) to be further put to work. We will now be using that USDC, along with some ETH, to provide liquidity to a pool and receive a cut of its transaction fees!

But Mirror is quickly changing that. In this guide, weâre going to dive into Mirror - a web3 toolkit for sharing stories, funding ideas, and turning text-based content into NFTs - and publish an entry on Mirror of our own! WHAT DO I NEED? Before we begin, letâs make sure you have your gear in order. To mint an entry on Mirror, all youâll need is an Ethereum wallet, such as MetaMask or Rainbow. Continue Reading Introducing Skills v2: On-chain Credentials 0xF719 May 24th, 2022 > Charting a path for users to become contributors in web3 based on verifiable, > on-chain credentials We started RabbitHole to promote the mission of Participation over Speculation. From liquidity mining and yield farming in DeFi to minting and flipping NFTs, thereâs no shortage of speculation games in crypto today. The unfortunate truth is only a small minority of web3 users are actually becoming contributors to projects they use. To build a more accessible, sustainable web3, we need long term thinkers & builders who think about contributing over using. We need participants, not speculators. As we set out on our journey to fight speculation in crypto, we launched Quests to help connect projects with new token holders. The next step in our journey is to help guide those token holders deeper down the crypto rabbit hole to become contributors to the same protocols we first introduced them to. Continue Reading From v0 to v1: RabbitHole Metagovernance Pod Learnings Justine 0xeD11 April 5th, 2022 In January, RabbitHole launched v0 of our metagovernance pod (the MGP), to empower our community members to actively participate in the governance of our partner protocols. Over the past 12 weeks, our contributors have absolutely blown us away with their work. Weâve executed over 75 votes, voting in a way that represents RabbitHoleâs values, amplifies the voice of everyday users, and promotes the sustainability of our partners. Voting recommendations made in v0, categorized by protocol. Full archive here: https://metagov.rabbithole.gg/ ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND CONTRIBUTIONS v0 was an experiment to test our communityâs interest in governance and the ability for critical strategic initiatives to be led by our community. v0 was an MVP in every sense (nobody would argue that Notion + Discord polls are the optimal governance stack) but in spite of these limitations, our contributors were able to provide enormous value to our community and throughout the broader web3 ecosystem.

If youâve skipped the past tasks, you can head back to the beginning here. Donât worry, weâll wait up for you! When it comes to putting your money to work, the DeFi ecosystem offers a vast array of options. So far, we have staked some ETH on Lido and lent stETH on Aave. Now, itâs time to use that stETH as collateral to borrow USDC! Continue Reading How To Lend stETH on Aave Tyler Internet 0xF38c March 24th, 2022 GM đ° In our previous guide, we staked ETH with Lido and received some stETH in exchange. Now that our ETH is cozy and gaining us some staking rewards, itâs time to put our stETH to work to further compound our yield. This will be a multi-step process, and it starts with using stETH as collateral on Aave - an open source and non-custodial liquidity protocol. If you havenât completed the previous task yet, it would be best to start there before moving forward here.

But there are times when casting your own vote may not seem like the best option. However, there is still a way to put your votes to use - delegation. For this step of our DAO path, weâll be delegating LDO tokens to the RabbitHole Metagovernance Pod. This will increase the voting power of RabbitHoleâs MetaGov Pod and directly contribute to the positive impact we strive to make on the Lido ecosystem! Continue Reading How To Vote on a Snapshot Proposal Tyler Internet 0xF38c March 24th, 2022 GM đ° One of the most important aspects of a DAO is collective decision making. So for this stop on our DAO path, weâll be participating in exactly that by voting on a proposal with Snapshot! WHAT DO I NEED? Before we get going, letâs make sure youâve got everything you need. In order to vote with Snapshot, you will need: Continue Reading How To Set Up a Gnosis Safe with 2 Signers Tyler Internet 0xF38c March 24th, 2022 GM đ° DAOs are community cooperation at work - people coming together to create, invest, build, and vibe. In order for DAOs to carry out their operations, they need stuff. And that stuff is often in the form of digital assets like cryptocurrencies and NFTs. When a DAO wants to take their digital asset management to the next level, they turn to a multisig wallet like Gnosis Safe. In this guide, weâre going to set up a Gnosis Safe ourselves!

Theyâre the single biggest motor behind the DeFi boom, allowing users to swap between different tokens and blockchains and enabling usage of new crypto projects. The main advantage of using a DEX is in the name itself â they're decentralized. DEXs rely on supply and demand to determine token prices, and individual participants provide liquidity for certain token pairs to run their operations. Today we'll explore one of the most promising DEXs in recent times, the Avalanche network's pioneer, Pangolin.

The Ethereum Name Service (ENS) is a distributed, open, and extensible naming system based on the Ethereum blockchain. ENS maps human-readable names like âkene.ethâ to machine-readable identifiers. Instead of using your Ethereum wallet address, ENS allows you to send and receive payments via your .eth domain name. A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE ON HOW TO REGISTER YOUR ENS DOMAIN Before being able to register your ENS domain, you need to: Continue Reading Tutorial: How to Deposit LP Tokens in a Yield Yak Auto-compounder Kairon 0x0BB6 November 17th, 2021 We've talked about providing liquidity, and how it can put your crypto to work by being at the heart of decentralized exchanges. In this guide we'll explore another prong for your DeFi swiss-army tool, the secret to snowballing returns on your LP tokens through auto-compounders. WHAT IS YIELD YAK? Yield Yak (formerly Snowball Finance) is a yield auto-compounder for the Avalanche Network. In layman's terms, it allows you to deposit you LP pair tokens (Like wETH.e-AVAX, AVAX-PNG) and single token farms (e.g USDC.e, wETH.e, DAI.e,etc.) to automatically reinvest your gains and earn a compounding slice of the LP Pool as time goes on. What Yield Yak does differently to other auto-compounders lies in its pooling structure. Instead of locking your yields for prolonged periods of time to maintain liquidity or soft-blocking your with prohibitively high withdrawal fees, YY socializes the costs to offer a more distributed (and therefore cost-effective) compounding mechanism that allows you to watch and withdraw your gains at mach speed.

Back in '68, Stanley Kubrick transported us into the distant year of 2001, and the future as he envisioned it held wonders like space stations on the moon and velcro shoes. And while most of the tech in this space epic held onto the 60âs zeitgeist, a particular piece featured is pin-pointedly accurate to our 21st century reality. After setting the scene for the Discovery One spaceship, we're introduced to a futuristic gadget.

And unfortunately, instances like the insurrection of the Capitol building, the spread of covid-related misinformation, and the rise of hyper partisan political environments have taught us this the hard way. In an environment where over 500 hours of video content are uploaded to YouTube every minute, moderation functions as the core commodity that platforms have to offer. These algorithmically-programmed systems of curation maintain profitability by holding our attention on sites (to see ads) and presenting us with content that will change our behavior (to sell ads). Problem is, these algorithms have learned to ânudgeâ our behaviour for more sinister reasons than just bleeding our wallets dry. To make matters worse, weâre completely blind to whatâs going on behind the gold-plated doors of Silicon Valley. Under Section 230 of the Communications and Decency Act, platform companies basically have sole discretion in how theyâre able to collect, collate, use, and sell our personal information. Continue Reading RabbitHoleDAO: Why Decentralization Matters zachdavidson.eth 0xE8B0 October 28th, 2021 Let's face it. Crypto onboarding as we know it is a tedious process plagued by token shillers and speculators whose only mission is to pump their own bags. And aside from centralized products like Coinbase Earn, there's no education network dedicated to teaching users the ins and outs of on-chain interactions. Onboarding today is inaccessible, hard to understand, and owned entirely by influencers who earn outsized benefits from new members joining the ecosystem. From an accessibility standpoint, think about the first time you heard about crypto â buzzwords galore: "How do I get started?" someone might ask. "Well," you'd say, "first you need a non-custodial wallet that holds various ERC-20 tokens. You're gonna want to go to your favorite centralized exchange, buy some tokens, send them to your wallet, swap some on a decentralized exchange to get some others, and, if you really wanna get frisky, lock em up in some high yield DeFi protocol to maximize your yield. You'll be farming in no time!" If you donât know a thing about crypto, you're probably staring at your screen like this: Continue Reading Tutorial: How to use DAOHaus alexyao.eth 0x57eF CurlyBracketEffect 0x8926 October 7th, 2021 DAOhaus is a no-code platform for launching and operating DAOs.

Continue Reading Tutorial: How to Stake Ohm on Olympus zachdavidson.eth 0xE8B0 October 22nd, 2021 OlympusDAO is the creator of OHM, a free-floating reserve currency backed by a basket of crypto assets. Used as a means of hedging against the crypto marketâs volatility, OlympusDAO focuses on supply growth rather than price appreciation to stabilize the value (but not necessarily the price) of OHM. How does this work? First, every OHM token is backed by 1 DAI, but not necessarily pegged to it. While a peg would imply 1 OHM = 1 DAI, backing implies 1 OHM >= 1 DAI. This means thereâs no upper limit to the value of 1 OHM, but there is a lower bound â 1 DAI. Or, put differently, the intrinsic value of 1 OHM is 1 DAI, but the market price will almost always be 1 DAI + a premium. To maintain the value of tokens held in the treasury, OlympusDAO uses a bond mechanism to generate profits for the protocol + staking rewards to incentivize holders to stake/provide liquidity for the protocol. OlympusDAO will either issue OHM if the price spikes, or buy back + burn it if the price drops. Stakers reap the benefits of this, earning rebase rewards as a result of bond sales. The result of all of this? Even if the price of OHM drops below your purchase price, given a long enough staking period, your staked OHM balance should increase at a faster rate than the price decline.

To learn more about Pathfinders and our role in the decentralization of RabbitHole, check out last weekâs newsletter. Pathfinders are the guiding lights through the nebulous crypto rabbit hole. Every week, we meet to discuss the web3 frontier, where it is today, and where itâs going. This week's musings: the Metaverseâwhat it is and where we are in it. WHAT IS THE METAVERSE AND WHERE ARE WE IN ITS EVOLUTION? From Zoom chats, to the Minecraft world, to our Twitter feeds, the Metaverse is taking shape all around us. But thereâs no finite beginning or end to this always-on digital space where people can congregate to socialize, work, learn, entertain, express themselves, and create. Instead, as put by Matthew Ball, the Metaverse is a âsort of successor state to the mobile internetâ that will âslowly emerge over time as different products, services, and capabilities integrate and meld together.â Continue Reading The Weekly Hop #7: Humans of RabbitHole Anay Simunovic 0x0ba8 Jonah Baer 0xF69E CurlyBracketEffect 0x8926 October 14th, 2021 The Weekly Hop is a newsletter written by Pathfinders. Click here to learn more about Pathfinders and our role in the decentralization of RabbitHole. Itâs my first intro for the Weekly Hop, and I already have a confession to make⌠This introduction was supposed to be a riff on an essay from Packy McCormickâs newsletter on the progressive decentralization of narrativeââa topic relevant to the development of web3 organizations. I planned to share the Pathfindersâ plan to get the community more involved, ideas for revenue generation, and how we can start building this blossoming DAO in public. But when I started writing, I came to realize that an essay on how to build our DAOâs narrative with the community is hypocritical: you donât even know my story (or most of the Pathfindersâ stories).

Last Wednesday, Twitter software engineer Mada Aflak posted a quick demo of the NFT authentication tool that the company is building. After downloading their NFTs from OpenSea, users can put their NFT in their avatar, and if properly authenticated, a customary checkmark will appear alongside the NFT to show that they are the âtrue ownerâ of the image. Twitterâs addition of this NFT overlay is likely to bring a tremendous amount of exposure to the space. Some may feel like weâre already at the top, but web2âs implementation of incremental technologies like these could mark the beginning of another period of NFT acceleration.

Click here to learn more about Pathfinders and our role in the decentralization of RabbitHole. Almost three weeks since its drop, Loot is still on my mind. And not because of what it isâyetâbut because of what it could become. Avichal Garg of Electric Capital sums it up well when he likens Loot with a deck of cards. On its own, a deck of cards is just 52 pieces of paper with signs and symbols on it. But with a bit of creativity, a deck of cards becomes the foundation to your favorite gamesâfrom Crazy 8âs, to Hearts, to my personal favorite, Poker. Similarly, while Loot may appear to be just an NFT with eight lines of white text against a black background, it could become the foundation of an entire gaming metaverse.

Users are able to stake any amount and receive stETH (staked ether) in return. StETH represents the deposited amount plus lending rewards, which is updated daily. The current APR for staking on Lido is 5% â you can find the updated amount here. As you might know, APR increases if the protocol has too little ETH staked in order to incentivize more providers. The LDO governance token is distributed to its DAO members, who are responsible for protocol upgrades, defining parameters, and managing the group of liquidity pools that Lido has. The LDO tokens have a 1-year lock-up period, following a 1-year vesting period. It is up to the DAO, not the user, to decide which pool the stake enters. Letâs navigate over to Lido and go through how to stake ETH on it.

Unlike a centralized exchange, SushiSwap is non-custodial and trustless. It uses an automated market maker (AMM) model to facilitate peer-to-peer exchanges of any two ERC-20 tokens in real time. SushiSwap has quickly evolved into one of the most sophisticated token liquidity engines in decentralized finance (DeFi) by releasing innovative product offerings that stretch our conception of what a DEX is supposed to be. In addition to the steady flow of new features, SushiSwap has expanded across multiple blockchains, setting itself up to be an extremely versatile multi-chain DEX.

Since rebalancing and optimization of token liquidity on Uniswap V3 can be confusing for some, Visor handles this for you, saving you time and gas fees. WHY IS ACTIVE LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT IMPORTANT? When participating in any sort of yield farming or liquidity mining, you'll realize how quickly gas fees add up. With Visor's "smart vaults," your assets will automatically be put in top yielding pools to maximize your ROI. Visor will also re-invest the fees it earns from providing liquidity in the pool, letting you increase your position over time. Continue Reading Tutorial: How to Stake on Synthetix Accelerated Capital 0xC714 August 28th, 2021 WHAT IS SYNTHETIX? âď¸ Synthetix is a decentralized derivatives liquidity protocol on Ethereum that enables the creation of synthetic assets (Synths) through its staking mechanism. Traders are able to acquire on-chain exposure to a variety of assets, including fiat currencies, stocks, commodities, and crypto, using the Synthetix platform. All Synths on Synthetix are backed by $SNX tokens that holders have staked as collateral into the application. With a high collateralization ratio and a unique minting/burning mechanism, Synthetix offers traders the ability to trade synthetic assets in a decentralized manner with deep liquidity and zero slippage, unlike traditional decentralized exchanges. Continue Reading Tutorial: How to provide liquidity on Balancer (Polygon) 0xF719 August 16th, 2021 WHAT IS BALANCER? Balancer is an automated market maker (AMM) protocol that allows users to swap assets using liquidity pools, similar to Uniswap. However, Balancer differs from Uniswap in a major way in that the liquidity pools are able to have up to 8 assets deposited in them, and the desired ratio between those assets can be set by the person that creates it. This essentially allows users to create custom investment vehicles that can act like index funds in which they can collect transaction fees from people using the pool. This comes with the added benefit of being able to maintain the ratios of the assets in their portfolio by having arbitragers effectively manage the fund for them. BALANCER ON POLYGON? In this tutorial, we will be covering how to provide liquidity on Balancer on the Polygon network. Polygon is an EVM smart contract-enabled side chain that is very similar to Ethereum. This means that you can use familiar tools like MetaMask to approve transactions. An added benefit is that the transaction fees on Polygon are much lower than on Mainnet Ethereum.

RabbitHole is on a mission to be the University of the Metaverse. This mission includes onboarding new people into crypto, teaching them how to be crypto-native, credentialing crypto users for their on-chain tasks, and matching users to protocols to find the best opportunities to participate in and contribute to crypto networks. But the truth is, this is not a mission that should be controlled by any single individual or entity. The Pathfinder program is the first step in decentralizing RabbitHole by recruiting the best community members and empowering them to look after the design, creation, and implementation of RabbitHole Quests. Eventually, the Pathfinder program will become the RabbitHole DAO. In todayâs edition of the weekly hop, we will talk about the strategy behind decentralizing through the Pathfinder program and the experiments we are launching to progress down the path of decentralization. Continue Reading Tutorial: How to provide Liquidity on Curve (Polygon) 0xF719 August 21st, 2021 Curve LP Tutorial: How to provide Liquidity on Curve (Polygon) WHAT IS CURVE? Curve is an automated market maker (AMM) protocol that allows users to swap assets using liquidity pools, similar to Uniswap. However, Curve differs from Uniswap in that it is optimized to allow users to trade stablecoins with as little gas fees and slippage as possible. Slippage is a term that refers to how much the price of an asset shifts during the time that it takes for your order to go through and is the result of a few factors: Continue Reading Tutorial: How to swap on Curve (Polygon) 0xF719 August 21st, 2021 WHAT IS CURVE? Curve is an automated market maker (AMM) protocol that allows users to swap assets using liquidity pools, similar to Uniswap. However, Curve differs from Uniswap in that it is optimized to allow users to trade stablecoins with as little gas fees and slippage as possible. Slippage is a term that refers to how much the price of an asset shifts during the time that it takes for your order to go through and is the result of a few factors: 1. The amount of Liquidity in a pool 2. The size of your order 3. Other market conditions (ie other users performing swaps on with the same pool at the same time.) Continue Reading Tutorial: How to Vote in DAO Governance Using Snapshot Accelerated Capital 0xC714 August 20th, 2021 WHAT IS GOVERNANCE? đď¸ Decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) typically rely on democratic voting mechanisms to facilitate coordination. Token holders are able to express their position on a variety of governance proposals by using their tokens to vote. As important as voting is to the proper functioning of a DAO, participation is notoriously limited. While this is typical of many democratic institutions, voting on Ethereum is unique in that it requires a transaction to complete. This means a voter will typically be required to pay gas to signal their opinion on a proposal. This leaves many smaller token holders left out of governance since voting on every proposal can quickly become prohibitive due to gas costs. So how do we lower expenses to ensure that anyone who wants to vote on a proposal can do so? Continue Reading Tutorial: Use Optimism for the first time Anay Simunovic 0x0ba8 August 19th, 2021 WHAT IS OPTIMISM? Given the recurring hurdle of high gas fees and slow transaction speeds, Layer 2 solutions like Optimism have become increasingly important to scale Ethereumâs network. Optimism uses optimistic rollups to bundle transactions together using smart contracts on an Ethereum side-chain before moving them to Ethereumâs mainnet. With far lower fees, far lower latency, and far greater throughput compared to Ethereum Layer 1 alone, many of your favorite DeFi protocols like Synthetix and Uniswap, have already begun to deploy on the network. If you want to be part of a faster and cheaper Ethereum future, keep reading to learn how to use Optimism. Continue Reading Tutorial: How to Mint alETH on Alchemix zachdavidson.eth 0xE8B0 August 18th, 2021 Alchemix lets you take out loans against Ethereum and/or DAI that repay themselves over time. Using synthetic tokens native to the protocol & backed by future yield, users can deposit ETH or DAI to mint alETH or alUSD, which can be borrowed and used however you want. How do the loans repay themselves? When you deposit collateral into Alchemix, it starts generating yield immediately from Yearn Finance vaults. The yield earned on your collateral is then used to pay off the loan you took out. While other platforms like Compound or Aave allow you to lend/borrow crypto, Alchemix sets itself apart by paying back your loan for you. This allows you to "set it and forget it" and never worry about liquidation. Continue Reading The Weekly Hop #1: Meet the Pioneers 0xF719 August 15th, 2021 The Weekly Hop is a newsletter covering the leaders behind RabbitHole, a platform onboarding the next million users into crypto while training and connecting them to work opportunities in DAOs. Since the launch of RabbitHole, the core team has been responsible for creating quests to guide users through various tasks in understanding crypto. This process includes: creating content, submitting proposals for what tasks should be included, developing queries to track completions, and designing NFTs as additional rewards. We're now starting to decentralize the ownership of these workflows so that dedicated community members can be a part of the creation process. That means that outside contributors can start having a say on how users are being onboarded into crypto through the existing infrastructure that RabbitHole built. These individuals are called Pathfinders. Continue Reading Tutorial: How to swap on Balancer (Polygon) Chase Chapman 0x5144 CurlyBracketEffect 0x8926 August 16th, 2021 WHAT IS BALANCER?

Polygon consists of two major components. Polygon Framework and Polygon Protocol. The polygon framework allows developers to spin up their own blockchain network that offers the same developer experience and security as Ethereum while also providing the scalability and flexibility of stand-alone blockchains. The Polygon Protocol provides the method of connecting two different Polygon Chains and the Ethereum Main Chain. Polygon lowers entry barriers by reducing the transaction costs to an absolute minimum by taking a multi-prong approach to scaling. Protocols like Curve, Aave, Balancer, and Sushiswap have already launched on Polygon. The low transaction costs and fast transaction speeds have encouraged game developers to launch on Polygon. Zed.Run and Aavegotchi are two such games.

If you are building an application that accesses data from the blockchain, it might take a long time to look through each block on the blockchain and extract relevant data. To solve this issue, you could build your own service to index data and store it in a conventional database. But this takes time and money. Hereâs where The Graph comes in. By allowing multiple types of network participants with specific roles, The Graph enables developers to build applications that can access blockchain data in a decentralized way without sacrificing performance. This Letâs look at the participants in The Graph ecosystem. Indexers: They stake GRT tokens and operate a Graph Node to index relevant data and process queries. They earn Indexing Rewards and Query Fees. Indexers are incentivized to serve correct data as their staked tokens will be slashed if they act maliciously. Delegators: Delegators stake their GRT tokens on behalf of one or more Indexers. As a result, Delegators earn a portion of the Indexer rewards and Query fees without running their own Graph Node. Consumers: These are the application developers that access data and pay for queries. Continue Reading Tutorial: How to create a Gnosis Safe Vajresh Balaji 0x7721 July 25th, 2021 WHAT IS GNOSIS SAFE?
