# About ETH Fall Basis

Yoshi "ETH Fall Basis Cash" is a ETH-BASIS-3M/USDC synthetic token on the Ethereum network, powered by the UMA Protocol. Users can mint these tokens by putting up USDC collateral and minting Yoshi "ETH Fall Basis" Cash.

Currently there does not exist an on-chain product on Ethereum that enables folks to deploy risk capital on the futures term structure on either BTC or ETH. Basis (difference between futures and spot) is a heavily popular product suite in the CeFi ecosystem that has nearly ~300mil+ ADV (average daily volume) in this regime allocated to it, and with the rise of interest rate products on-chain, basis synthetics can be heavily useful for folks speculating on the steepening or flattening of the interest rate curve for BTC and ETH. See more information on the [UMIP](https://github.com/UMAprotocol/UMIPs/blob/master/UMIPs/umip-40.md) and [here](https://yoshi.cash/eth/about).

# About UNIc50-0521

UNIc50-0521 is a call option on UNI token with a strike price of $50 which expires on May 31th, 2021.  

A call option gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation to buy an asset at a specified price (strike) and a specific time period (expiry). View [here](https://medium.com/uma-project/bal-and-uni-join-the-call-options-party-eed7965df9d1) to learn more about UNI call options. 

### Why buy UNIc50-0521?

__Leveraged Speculation__
__
The simplest use for a long call position is for speculating on the appreciation of an asset with leverage and also limited downside. __Anybody bullish UNI can obtain the right to be long 1 UNI at a price of 50 USD by paying only 5.5% of an UNI token (assuming the call option trades at 0.055,)__. However, the flip side to that is the value of the option will depreciate or decay very quickly to zero if it does not trade above the strike price.

__Income or Yield Enhancement__

Existing UNI token holders can mint these call option tokens using their UNI token as collateral and then sell them to earn income or provide liquidity in them to farm more UNI. Especially for token holders who are willing to sell some of their UNI at 50 USD it would be a reasonable strategy. Assuming the call option trades at 0.055, if UNI rallies over 50 USD they would have sold their UNI at 52.75 USD (50 + 0.055*50). If UNI stays below 50 USD, the strategy would have earned the 5.5% premium.

# About DROPT-1

BadgerDAO is partnering with UMA on the next evolution of incentive mining in DeFi. Liquidity Mining has become ubiquitous in DeFi and with the release of their KPI options UMA broke new ground with TVL mining. BadgerDAO is extending this model in collaboration with UMA to launch Rebase Mining.

Rebasing mining is an action oriented way for users to earn DIGG rewards instead of just providing liquidity. The volume of rewards are distributed based on the number of positive rebases DIGG experiences in a given 30 day span (when DIGG is higher than the price of Bitcoin). The more positive rebases the more rewards earned and each additional day increases the % of rewards distributed. This incentive model should align DIGG holders to take action to ensure DIGG has as many positive rebases as possible.

This is the first iteration but we are optimistic that leveraging Rebase Mining on a continuous basis can be the external factor necessary to enhance the underlying rebase mechanics in the DIGG token. It can be the ongoing incentive necessary to address the lack of interest for users to buy rebasing tokens once they are 15–30% below peg.

## How does it work? 

BadgerDAO will be using UMA to mint 30 day duration DIGG Rebase options (standard ERC20 tokens) that will be redeemable at maturity for a portion of a rewards pool which will be funded from the BadgerDAO treasury. The intention is to have a rewards pool of 50–100 DIGG (an elastic supply cryptocurrency pegged to the price of Bitcoin and governed by Badger DAO) for users to earn in the first month.

These options launched on May 7th and matured on June 7th 2021.There must be a minimum of 5 positive rebases in that month for the options to mature for any rewards. The rewards then increase every additional positive rebase to a maximum of 30 days which pays out 100% of the rewards pool. A 1.5 power will be applied to redemption value which means that each positive rebase will increase redemption value at a rate higher than the last one.

# About yCOMP

yCOMP is a synthetic asset that tracks the price of COMP token. Users who are interested in gaining exposure to the asset can do so in two ways:

1. __A sponsor who’s shorting COMP__ – Users will be required to lock DAI as collateral to mint yCOMP where you can then proceed to sell the synthetic token on Uniswap. If the price of COMP falls enough, users can unlock their collateral for fewer dollars than they originally sold it for. The difference is the shorter’s “net profit”.

3. __A holder who earns a yield on COMP__ – Users who elect to become a yCOMP holder will be exposed to the price of COMP.  When you originally purchase yCOMP (or sell it), the price will actually be lower than COMP. This is because users effectively have to pay the “funding rate” to short the asset, bringing the yToken to parity with COMP as it approaches expiration.

## Why buy UMAc25-0621?

__Leveraged Speculation__
__
The simplest use for a long call position is for speculating on the appreciation of an asset with leverage and also limited downside. __Anybody bullish UMA can obtain the right to be long 1 UMA at a price of 25 USD by paying only 5.5% of an UMA token__. However, the flip side to that is the value of the option will depreciate or decay very quickly to zero if it does not trade above the strike price.

__Income or Yield Enhancement__

Existing UMA token holders can mint these call option tokens using their UMA token as collateral and then sell them to earn income or provide liquidity in them to farm more UMA. Especially for token holders who are willing to sell some of their UMA at 25 USD it would be a reasonable strategy. Assuming the call option trades at 0.055, if UMA rallies over 25 USD they would have sold their UMA at 26.375 USD (25 + 0.055*25). If UMA stays below 25 USD, the strategy would have earned the 5.5% premium.

# About SUSHIsBOND July 2024

SUSHIsBOND July 2024 is a [range token](https://medium.com/uma-project/treasury-diversification-with-range-tokens-145d4b12614e) without an upper range. That means this token will pay out a fixed dollar amount ($1,000) of SUSHI at expiry provided the contract the price of SUSHI is greater than or equal to $5.

Each SUSHIsBOND is set to hold 200 SUSHI. If the price of SUSHI is $5 or greater it will payout a fixed dollar amount of $1,000. If the price of SUSHI is below $5, the tokenholder receives 200 SUSHI (at the price SUSHI is trading at worth). This looks like a Range token where the bottom of the Range is $5, but unlike the Range token design, SUSHIsBOND has no upper Range (or “call option”) that pays out additional upside if Sushi rallies.

Notes:

- Expiry is set to July 31, 2024 (about 3 years)
- Each SBond token is backed by 200 $SUSHI
- At expiry, each SBond will expire to be worth $1000 of $SUSHI if $SUSHI is above $5
- If $SUSHI is below $5 at expiry, each SBond will be worth exactly 200 $SUSHI

The following payouts happen at expiry:

- If $UMA is within the $4–12 range, the investor earned 25% APY paid in $UMA
- If $UMA is > $12, the investor earns an effective APY higher than 25% (the investor has long exposure to a $12 call option)
- If $UMA is < $4, the investor earns an effective APY lower than 25% (the investor has short exposure to a $4 put option).

# About SUSHI Success Token expiring 7/31/23

A Success Token is a project token with an embedded call option on that token.

This means that instead of selling project tokens at a discount to investors, projects can sell Success Tokens which provides the investor a call option alongside their token purchase.

# About rtSUSHI-0122

The range token is a new treasury primitive that enables DAOs to access funds and diversify their treasury without directly selling their native tokens. Range tokens function as a loan a DAO can take against its own treasury. This is similar in traditional finance to convertible debt.

rtSUSHI-0122 token has a $4-$16 SUSHI price range and expires on January 31, 2022. 

The following payouts happen at expiry:

- If $SUSHI is within the $4–16 range, the investor earned 25% APY paid in $SUSHI
- If $SUSHI is > $16, the investor earns an effective APY higher than 25% (the investor has long exposure to a $12 call option)
- If $SUSHI is < $4, the investor earns an effective APY lower than 25% (the investor has short exposure to a $4 put option).

In an effort to encourage positive rebases of BadgerDAO’s DIGG token, BagerDAO has launched “Rebase Mining” using UMA’s KPI Options. 

bDIGG will expire on July 30th, 2021.

- It expires
- As the date of expiry approaches, its price will approach $1
- When it expires, it will be redeemable for $1 of the collateral asset at the exact time of expiry

Put together, the yield dollar represents a fixed-rate, fixed-term loan. View [here](https://medium.com/uma-project/the-yield-dollar-on-uma-3a492e79069f) for more information on yield dollars.

uINT is a KPI Option that will pay out based on the number of integrations that UMA achieves until expiry on December 30, 2021.

An integration will have been achieved when a DAO funds with tokens one of the following four product categories:
- KPI options
- Call/Put options
- Range Bonds
- Success Tokens

These products were selected as they are the team’s strategic focus for this quarter, and we want to ensure alignment between the UMA core team and the Super Umans.

These tokens will pay out 100 $UMA tokens per integration, per 1,000 uINT. For any integration that is funded with more than $5M USD worth of tokens, uINT will pay out an additional 200 $UMA tokens.

This KPI option was provided to Super Uman's. There has been no airdrop or other wide distribution. However, there are ways to start to participate for anyone who is interested. Join [discord.umaproject.org](discord.umaproject.org) and ask how you can join.

A Success Token is a project token with an embedded call option on that token.

This means that instead of selling project tokens at a discount to investors, projects can sell Success Tokens which provides the investor a call option alongside their token purchase. They pay the full price of the token for this package. The option portion is only valuable if the project rallies, which better aligns incentives: the investor only gets their “bonus” if the project performs well, which of course benefits the whole community. View [here](https://medium.com/uma-project/success-tokens-an-incentive-aligned-way-for-vc-funds-to-invest-in-daos-1e8b8244f2f4) to learn more about success tokens.

At expiry (12/01/23) each PERP Success Token is redeemable for 1 PERP token plus the value of half a $30.00 USD strike call option on PERP, paid in PERP tokens. The formula for this payout is as follows: each Success Token is redeemable for 1 PERP + MAX(0.5 * (PERP price - $30.00) / PERP price, 0) PERP.  For example, if at expiry 1 PERP is worth $30 USD or less, each Success Token will be redeemable for exactly 1 PERP Token. As another example, if at expiry 1 PERP is worth $60 USD, each Success Token will be redeemable for 1.25 PERP Tokens, worth $75 USD.

This contract has `customAncillaryData` set to `twapLength:2592000,ohlcPeriod:86400` which means PERPUSD price at expiration would be calculated using last 30 day TWAP over 24 hour price intervals.

Protected token pairs use the UMA LSP contract to wrap any ERC20 asset and create protected and recovery tokens. The protected tokens are put in a specified wallet address or smart contract system and the recovery tokens are held in a secure wallet elsewhere and can be used to recover the underlying asset in the event of a hack, bug, or other cause of lost funds. Protected tokens allow a user to use the protected token with confidence that they are not exposed to smart contract risk. This is great not just for user protection but also for new and experimental protocols or new features added to existing protocols.

Risk Labs has launched an UMA Protected Token Pair that uses UMA as collateral and plans to deposit the protected tokens in a vault with Hats Finance (https://hats.finance). The protected tokens will be used to reward whitehat hackers and auditors who identify bugs in the UMA and Across protocols. If funds are lost due to a hack or bug in the Hats vault, or user error in the UMA committee multi-sig wallet that reviews reports, the recovery tokens held in a secure wallet elsewhere can be used to recover the underlying UMA. Recipients of rewards through this program will also receive 1:1 matching recovery tokens from Risk Labs so that they can redeem the protected/recovery token pair for the underlying UMA without waiting for contract expiry.

Other UMA holders are encouraged to mint protected token pairs and add additional funding to the Hats vault to increase funding for whitehat hackers who identify risks in the UMA and Across protocols, and should remember to deposit the protected tokens in the vault while keeping their recovery tokens in a secure wallet.

"The Bootstrap Across Community KPI Option" is used to incentivize the new Across community to bootstrap itself by attracting new discord members. 

The KPI Option will be valued at between 0 and 1 UMA depending on the number of the Across Discord members at expiry. A membership total at or above 1000 members will result in the KPI option being valued at 1 UMA. 

Across protocol is a novel bridging method that combines an optimistic oracle, bonded relayers and single-sided liquidity pools to provide decentralized instant transactions from rollup chains to Ethereum mainnet.
