Bi-Weekly Wrap Up #26

Welcome to the Bi-Weekly Wrap Up, a bi-weekly series where we go over all of the highlights within the Liquity ecosystem. This issue covers 3/7/22 – 3/27/22.

What is Liquity? Liquity is a decentralized borrowing protocol that allows you to draw 0% interest loans against Ether used as collateral. Learn more.

System Overview

  • Over the last three weeks, the ETH price has finally seen an increase from ~$2,500 to ~$3,300. In correlation, the LUSD supply has also seen one of its first positive durations since the start of 2022 with ~23m LUSD being minted and ~17m LUSD being burned over the last 21 days. This is a good sign that borrowers are starting to get comfortable again with the current market.

  • It’s also important that we highlight the recent change in LUSD utilization. Since January, LUSD has started to flood back into the Stabiltiy Pool — increasing its dominance to 72.5% of the LUSD supply. Recently, OlympusDAO followed this trend and made their long-awaited deposit as well (more details in a later section).

  • After being in a gradual downtrend since early last year, the total collateral ratio (TCR) has seen a significant increase over the last few weeks. This could be due to a combination of the rising ETH price and borrowers de-risking.
