What is the catch with converting LINK to aLINK and putting it in a yearn vault?

>> No.26176220

how does it work? how many times per week do you get paid, or how does the payout work? didn't want to get into it cuz the taxman will probably want his cut on it, like with mining, and then i'd have to keep track of all that stuff and calculate tax. in my country any profit from mining they want 30% of, then they want 30% of it again when you cash out to fiat lel

the point is your LINK is extremely valuable in the DeFi world... deposit it in aave borrow stablecoins and GET TO WORK
>>26176219
free link tokens
try it with 10-20% of your stack and get a feel for defi firsthand.
Of course it takes time to adjust to the new financial technology but start learning now because its not going away.\
The risk is a major smart contract failure but now that these things have been battle tested and audited the safety is increased.
>>26176312
you can either earn roughly 10% interest on your link or just take out usd loans and add 2-3k link to your stack

What's the interest on that loan?

>> No.26176693

and you know the great thing about aave liquidation if in the worst case scenario it happens?
You only lose 5% unlike on a Cex where you lose it all
the liquidators just pay back your debt (by converting your collateral to your debt token) and take a 5% fee off your collateral

>> No.26176766

>>26176679
roughly 10%... interest rates are relatively high right now in defi because things are mooning so everyone wants to borrow usd to buy shitcoins
The thing is 10% is in reality very little in the crypto world

Celsius is, as far as anyone can tell, pretty legit. They've much more to gain through providing a service than scamming. That and their ties with Chainlink are reassuring. I don't have my entire stack on there, but that's just for my personal state of mind.

Isn't there a risk that this yield farming thing will collapse one day?

>> No.26177045

people using centralized finance instead of DeFi are inferior... there is no arguement they are lesser human beings either too unintelligent to learn how to use defi or too lazy. Either way its best to ignore them.
If you are browsing this site you can take the time to learn how to use DeFi. Then you dont have some scam company as a counterparty risk.
There is no argument to using CeFi over DeFi unless you are a boomer that cant copy and paste an eth address . Anything else is pure cope

when you deposit you get an a token aLINK or a USDC which are redeemable 1:1 with their normal counterparts. the amount increases every second based on the interest rate, same thing for borrowing, your borrow 1000 aUSDT at 10% apy and as long as you stay above the liquidation threshold nothing will happen

I don't get what 10% yield are you guys talking about. LINK yield on aave is 0.01%.

Also what's the point of borrowing USDC and buying LINK? Can't you just go margin long on binance instead?
