Long-Short Strat

Given one trusted coin (T) and one untrusted coin (U), deposit both in liquidity pool. Early LP rewards.

  • risk: U price drop devalues both the pool deposit and and previous rewards
    • mitigate: short U (buy puts) with strike price as current price of U
    • problem: no options market for U
  • boost: short U on a perpetual derivatives platform, collecting hourly fee
    • problem: derivatives platform pays only when short is against market sentiment (more longs than shorts)
