Elliptic Curve Families
Title: Elliptic Curves Families Author: Written with the help of OpenAI Read: 20 min Description: Provide basic understanding of different elliptic curves families, which is commonly used in cryptography. Body: So here are some Elliptic curves:The NIST P-256 curve, which is defined by the equation y^2 = x^3 - 3x + b, where b = 41058363725152142129326129780047268409114441015993725554835256314039467401291.The NIST P-384 curve, which is defined by the equation y^2 = x^3 - 3x + b, where b = 39402...

MEV
IntroductionMiner extractable value (MEV) is a measure of the profit a miner can make through their ability to arbitrarily include, exclude, or re-order transactions within the blocks they produce. Ethereum is where most of the MEV action happens, while there are MEV to be earn by miners/validators on other types of blockchain, Ethereum is the father of Defi and has the most value to be extracted.FlashbotsFlashbots is a research and development organization working on mitigating the negative ...

Terra's Big Meltdown
The Terra’s ecosystem started to meltdown during the nights of 9th May 6pm UTC. UST begins to depeg from $1.00 USD to $0.90 USD during that hour. People quickly realize the opportunity and begin to perform arbitrage: Burn UST for Luna ($1 USD of Luna for 1 UST burned), sell Luna and buy more UST. However, arbitragers are more than happy to buy UST at a lower price to re-use the same liquidity for the next round of arbitraging. And this begins to spiral out of control as common investors decid...

Lending Protocols
Lending protocols aims to offer crypto loans in a trustless manner. There are several types of lending primitives with a variety of secondary protocols built on-top of it.Lending primitivesNon-custodial liquidity marketsLoanHow the protocol works is very simple. Depositor deposit crypto into the protocol to earn interests. Borrowers can borrow funds from the protocol and pay an interest when returning the loans. The liquidity of the borrowed funds will stem from the liquidity provided by the ...
