LRT Curation Services

MEV Capital collaborates with node operators and restaking infrastructures (Symbiotic, EigenLayer) to help curate Validation Services (AVS, DSS, Networks) and provide shared security using collaterals from Liquid Restaked tokens.

LRT curation enables a myriad of strategies on different types of collateral by selecting node operators to secure specific Validation Services. Our methodology for Validation services curation can be found here.

Yield drivers

Liquidity provisionSimilar to Market-Making, in traditional finance, allocating capital to paired assets of the same underlying allows the liquidity provider to stay market-neutral while receiving transaction fees from trading activities.
Statistical Arbitrage Or ”Statarb” can be executed across several assets in the same exchange or across different protocols and public blockchains (multilateral arbitrage) to profit from temporary price discrepancies of one or several assets.
Carry tradingCash-and-carry trading consists of borrowing an asset at a low-interest rate, converting it for an equivalent asset (i.e., synthetic, or asset of the same underlying), and lending the latter at a higher rate.
Pool ImbalancePool imbalance refers to the situation when the amount repartition of assets in a liquidity pool - typically equally weighted between 2 assets - appears to be in momentaneous disequilibrium compared to the Market price of each asset constituting the pool.
Liquidation callsOpportunity-based profits generated from on-chain liquidations of under-collateralized vaults by repaying the vaults’ debt at a discounted price as an incentive, and selling the received deposits at market price, in exchange for stablecoins.
