DeFi Platform Youves Will Add Liquidity Baking LP Tokens As Collateral Option For uUSD

Last week, YIP-003 was approved. It introduces a new token as collateral for Youves assets.

Starting next Monday the 10th, Liquidity Baking LP tokens (XTZ/tzBTC LP) can be used as collateral. LP tokens are liquidity pool tokens that you receive for as long as you provide liquidity to the XTZ/tzBTC pool in Liquidity Baking (LB).

Quick Intro To The Youves Platform

Decentralized Finance (DeFi) platform Youves allows users to deposit XTZ as collateral and take out a loan by minting assets. (Currently the stablecoin uUSD).

Users can also deposit uUSD in a savings account and earn interest. Once minted uUSD, the minter starts earning YOU tokens, the governance tokens of the Youves platform.

Holders of YOU tokens can stake them to earn a percentage of the platform’s revenue in uUSD.

Users can also use uUSD as collateral to mint UEFI.

The Youves platform has been live for about 6 months, and currently, 626 users have locked 5.5 million XTZ as collateral and minted 6.8 million uUSD.  

Proposal #3 • YIP-003

Changes to the platform are made through a governance process where holders of the platform’s governance token (YOU tokens) can submit their vote for or against a proposal. 

Last week, YIP-003 was approved. It introduces a new token as collateral for Youves assets. Starting next Monday the 10th, Liquidity Baking LP tokens (XTZ/tzBTC LP) can be used as collateral.

LP tokens are liquidity pool tokens which you receive for as long as you provide liquidity to the XTZ/tzBTC pool in Liquidity Baking (LB). This will open more opportunities for liquidity providers for LB.

YIP-002

The previous proposal that was accepted is YIP-002. This will introduce a gold token uAUX. uAUX can be minted with uUSD as collateral. uAUX is now tested on Granadanet prior to launching on mainnet.
