YES collectiveCase Study: Baseline Market Maker's First $2.3M Stress Test
On March 11th, YES underwent its first major stress test with a $2.3M sell-off. Traditional AMMs often struggle to handle large dumps without severe price collapses. However, Baseline’s V3 Market Maker (BMM) absorbed the pressure efficiently, proving its ability to mitigate volatility while maintaining price stability.Key Metrics💰 Total Sell-Off: $2.3M 📉 Price Impact: -15% 📉 Market Cap Drop: $61M → $51M ⚖️ Liquidity Depth: Adjusted dynamically to absorb large sells Without BMM, a standard ...

Baseline mechanics were built with fairness in mind. As is common with any launch, however, technically advanced adversaries can and will use sniper bots to secure entry at the cheapest price, leaving the rest of participants buying at risk premiums. To address this unfair dynamic, we’re launching the Initial Baseline Value (IBLV) Event!The Initial Baseline Value (IBLV) EventThe IBLV Event is an opportunity for qualified community members to participate in setting the Initial Baseline Value (...

Introducing Loops - a new Baseline mechanic that allows users to increase their exposure to bTokens, effortlessly.
Looping involves repeatedly borrowing against bToken to purchase more bTokens, creating a leveraged position. When the bToken's price rises relative to the reserve asset, looped positions see amplified returns:
Unlike Baseline Loans, where users have to pay interest based on the amount borrowed, Loops use a funding rate mechanism to charge fees on looped positions. In this system, the protocol automatically "shrinks" both collateral and debt over time, allowing users to maintain non-liquidatable leveraged exposure without any active management of the position.
Baseline Loops simplifies the looping process through a simple user experience:
Deposit reserves (ETH, USDB, etc) to Open and/or Increase Position.
The system automatically max loops for you.
Decrease and/or Close Position to un-loop collateral and return reserves.
This streamlined process unlocks benefits of a leveraged position while reducing complexity to a minimum. To learn more about Loops: https://docs.baseline.markets/utility/loops
Looping tends to be most advantageous when:
The bToken's price is close to its BLV, offering maximum capital efficiency and lower downside risk.
You have a strong conviction in the bToken's short to medium-term price appreciation.
You understand the risks involved and have a clear exit strategy.
Remember, while looping near the BLV offers better capital efficiency, it should still be approached with caution and a thorough understanding of the potential outcomes.
Loops is now available for YES and (soon) MACHI. Head over to Baseline Markets to try it out:
