Unsatisfied Liquidity Mining Returns? Analysis of Defi’s yield-improving strategy on Solana
The recent decline in the crypto market has made many investors look into fixed return strategies. However, the gas fees on Ethereum is climbing unstoppably, putting a strain on everybody’s wallets, and most of the EVM-based chains are in their early stages. A big chunk of Defi users have shifted to competing low-fee L1 blockchains like Solana. The question is: how to identify a safe and high-yield investment? The ecosystem on Solana has developed rapidly since last year. The hackathon held b...

当你在Solana上借贷时，你知道还要付砍头费吗?
Solana有哪些借贷平台？如今Solana生态已初具规模，大家对借贷的需求也日益凸显。目前Solana上主流的借贷平台有4个，分别是Solend、Larix、Apricot和Port，大部分Solana上的用户应该都体验过这几个平台。但是你知道吗，它们中的大多数都在你不知情的情况下“偷偷”收了一种费用——“砍头费”，而且费用不低。什么是“砍头费”？“砍头费”英文是“Borrow Fee”，即借款费用，它不同于借款利息。借款利息=借款金额*借款APY*借款时间，借款金额越大、借款APY越高、借款时间越长，借款利息越高。砍头费=借款金额*砍头息，借款金额越大、砍头息越高，砍头费越高。也就是说，当你借款时，借款平台可能会收你两部分费用，除了常见的借款利息外还可能有砍头费。砍头费如何收取?砍头费是一次性收取的，并且跟借款时长无关，也就是说不管你只借了1分钟还是借了1年，平台都会收取你同样的借款费用。Solana上主流借贷平台的砍头息如下，目前只有Larix一家没有砍头费：以Solend为例，如果你借100万美金，除了要付借款利息，还款时Solend还会一次性收取你1000美金的砍头费。...
