Why yBGT?When the idea to start Bearn as a new Yearn sub DAO on Berachain arose it seemed pretty obvious what to do. Yearn has been doing liquid lockers, for veCRV and simple autocompounder vaults longer than basically anyone else in DeFi. So these were the first two products we focused on building. Though in normal Yearn fashion, Bearn is late to the game. So now that Bera has been live for a few months, POL has already rolled out and the BGT wars are in full swing the question is why anothe...

How Yearn got Cow Swap solvers to fill our Dutch Auctions without them knowing
At Yearn we consider ourselves somewhat of experts in the field of token dumping. It goes along with the job of being a yield aggregator sure, but we like to think we bring an extra pizazz to the table when it comes to the art dumping. One of the reasons for this is likely because of how long we've been doing it. Yearn's been dumping tokens longer than most people have been in this industry. Longer than Saylors been Yolo longing Bitcoin. Longer than we have been waiting for re-staki...

Who wants to be an Allocator?
It was during the great DeFi bull run of 2020, that the anointed philosophizer Mike Saylor once said of yield aggregators, "There is no second best" when discussing Yearn. Since that time many new yield aggregators have come and gone, a new vault standard has been born, big Unc Powell threw a Miley Cyrus sized wrecking ball through the whole business model and yield farming has been transitioning more into off chain point accumulating. Yet here we stand at the cusp, the end, a moment, in a ne...

Do you even Tokenized Strategy?
It is a great honor to be the lead developer of Yearn V3 during its launch. But I am far from the first or only dev to contribute to the concept or the code of what we are attempting to build. When I took over V3 from the legend Mr. jmonteer himself, building something that all of DeFi can use to create the next generation of yield aggregators with, was firmly set as the goal. The vision to commoditize what Yearn does, in order to be the underlying infrastructure of all on-chain capital alloc...

V3 and the Past, Present and Future of Yearn
V3 and the Past, Present and Future of YearnWhile you may or may not be aware, Yearn's V3 system has been in development for quite some time. And while we are no strangers to product delays this one's been a doozie. However, finally the time has come. The contracts are deployed, the front end is built, the social media intern is all hyped up on mountain dew and V3 is ready for launch. So, with launch imminent it seems like the perfect time for a little reflection on where we are tod...
