DADS Update

Great timing IMHO — holidays winding down, markets in consolidation mode (BTC ~$88k range, ZORA bouncing around $0.042-0.05 on Base creator volume).. So I'm here with another look at yield opportunities. Markets are quiet post-holidays, BTC consolidating in the $86-90k zone, perfect time to recharge positions without FOMO.Remember: Yields fluctuate, impermanent loss is real, smart contracts have risks. This is experimental sharing — DYOR, size small, never more than you can lose. Not advice.Current Landscape (Dec 21, 2025):

  • Base chain TVL steady ~$10-15B range.

  • Aerodrome still king for liquidity/emissions.

  • Pendle TVL hitting records (~$8B+), but yields cooling from peaks.

  • Stable plays 5-15% APY; volatile pairs higher but riskier.

Top Hunter Spots I'm Watching:

  1. Aerodrome Stable/Bluechip LPs (My go-to for balance):

    • USDC/WETH or cbBTC pairs often 10-25% APY from fees + AERO emissions.

    • Recently added more to $DADSDEFISPACE pool — bought dip, rebalanced LP for TVL/emissions boost + community royalties. Small scale, but sustainable.

  2. Pendle Yield Tokenization:

    • PT/ST splits on ETH or BTC LSTs — fixed yields ~8-12% if you like predictability.

    • Risk: Market moves can swing ST value.

  3. Creator Coin Experiments on Zora/Base:

    • Closed my ZORA position ~$0.042... But still in all my other trades,
