2. **Assumption of Risk**&#x20;

You assume the risks of engaging in transactions that rely on smart contracts and other experimental technology. Transactions on the Yeti Finance Protocol rely on smart contracts stored on the Avalanche blockchain blockchains, cryptographic tokens generated by the smart contracts, and other nascent software, applications and systems that interact with blockchain-based networks. These technologies are experimental, speculative, inherently risky, and subject to change. Among other risks, bugs, malfunctions, cyberattacks, or changes to the applicable blockchain (e.g., forks) could disrupt these technologies and even result in a total loss of cryptoassets, their market value, or digital funds. You are solely responsible for the safekeeping of the private key associated with the blockchain address used to interact with the Protocol. We assume no liability or responsibility for any such risks. If you are not comfortable assuming these risks, you should not access or engage in transactions using blockchain-based technology. One of the other defining features of blockchain technology is that its entries are immutable, which means, as a technical matter, they generally cannot be deleted or modified by anyone. This includes smart contracts and cryptoassets generated and programmed by smart contracts. THUS, TRANSACTIONS RECORDED ON THE BLOCKCHAIN, INCLUDING TRANSFERS OF CRYPTOASSETS AND DATA PROGRAMMED INTO THESE ASSETS MUST BE TREATED AS PERMANENT AND CANNOT BE UNDONE BY US OR BY ANYONE. YOU MUST BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN YOU FINALIZE ANY TRANSACTION THAT WILL BE RECORDED ON THE BLOCKCHAIN. We are not liable for any third-party services or links. We are not responsible for the content or services of any third-party, including, without limitation, any network, or apps like Discord, or MetaMask, and we make no representations regarding the content or accuracy of any third-party services or materials. The use and access of any third-party products or services, including through the Services, is at your own risk. You agree to the automated collection and disbursement of assets by smart contracts. You acknowledge and agree that all transactions accessed through the Services will be automatically processed using one or more blockchain-based smart contracts. By engaging in transactions using the Services, you acknowledge and consent to the automatic processing of all transactions in connection with using the Services. You further acknowledge and agree that the applicable smart contract will dictate how the funds of a transaction and ownership of cryptoassets are distributed. You acknowledge the risks of using the Services. You bear sole responsibility for evaluating the Services before using them, and all transactions accessed through the Services are irreversible, final, and without refunds. The Services may be disabled, disrupted or adversely impacted as a result of sophisticated cyber-attacks, surges in activity, computer viruses, and/or other operational or technical challenges, among other things. We disclaim any ongoing obligation to notify you of all of the potential risks of using and accessing our Services. You acknowledge there is a real risk that assets deposited into the protocol and Protocol related tokens: YUSD, YETI, and vault tokens may suffer complete and permanent economic loss should the protocol’s technical or economic mechanisms suffer catastrophic failure.

![](/files/MyNP5jWkgidKdA7s97yK)

To open your Trove, Click **Add Collateral Type** &#x20;

![](/files/zBx3qofISpsfDJNdgRmb)

A modal will popup with different collateral types that you can deposit onto Yeti Finance as well as the associated **Safety Ratio** and **Wallet Balance**.

![](/files/1mNxhAtX8kMw0NLO3e5j)

Across the top, you will see:

* **Token -** The name of the tokens you can use as collateral to borrow YUSD.
* **Safety Ratio -** This is related to how risky a collateral is. Stablecoin collateral will have a ratio of between 1 and 1.1 while all non-stablecoin collaterals will have a safety ratio between 0 and 1. Higher-risk collaterals have a lower safety ratio and are given a lower weight when calculating the risk adjusted value of your trove.&#x20;
  * Risk Adjusted Value = Safety Ratio \* Price \* Collateral Amount.
  * More details [here](/other/definitions).&#x20;
* **Wallet Balance -** The amount of each collateral type you have in your connected wallet.

### Adding Collateral Types

To add a collateral type, select the collaterals you want to add to your trove, and click **Add**.&#x20;

![](/files/kvwIK2PYxCK85ZNPswVS)

### Adjusting Your Trove

![](/files/FbZAD3mS4hEOQvOs0Lqk)

Now, you can see the addition of your **Deposit Fee**, **APY**, **Wallet Balance, Actions,** and **Adjusted Trove Amount** for each collateral type you have added.

* **Deposit Fee** - This represents the approximate one-time fee that the protocol will charge for depositing collateral into Yeti Finance. This is separate from the one-time borrowing fee which is assessed on YUSD debt. At launch, all collateral deposit fees will be 1% until enough assets have backed the system. More info about fee specifics for each collateral can be found [*here*](/using-yeti-finance/borrowing/variable-deposit-fees).
* **APY** - The estimated annual percentage yield gained from depositing yield bearing assets. You will still earn the estimated APY from your yield-bearing tokens that are deposited in your Trove! For non yield-bearing tokens, the APY will say N/A.&#x20;
* **Actions** - The column to adjust the amount of each collateral you want to put in your trove. Click between the deposit and withdraw buttons and enter the necessary amount.
* **Adjust Trove Amount** - The amount of each collateral your Trove would have after adjustments.

### How to use the Actions Column

Use the Actions column to adjust how much of each collateral you are willing to deposit or withdraw.&#x20;

**Press the green 'Deposit' button for deposits and the red 'Withdraw' button for withdrawals** (i.e the picture below shows a case where $1500 is being withdrawn for the top collateral type and $1,500 is being deposited the bottom collateral type)

![](/files/uCGSN8pJFVT3eE9AmqKm)

To borrow or withdraw YUSD, use the **Actions** column to adjust the borrow amount and click **Confirm Changes** on the bottom right of the site.&#x20;

![](/files/AtuSWIgPoWdfQNglDw38)

**New Risk Adjusted Value** and **New Collateral Ratio** are there to visually represent what your updated value of your Trove weighted by risk would be, as well as the ratio between the risk-adjusted value of your Trove over your debt in YUSD.

Keep in mind that in order to open a Trove, **you must borrow a minimum of 2000 + fees in YUSD**

### Confirming Changes

Once you click **Confirm Changes**, another modal will pop up like the image below.

![](/files/WfJD0qQwhcvNmLnF58Uw)

It's a quick summary that displays the collateral types and the respective amounts that you're depositing/withdrawing, how much YUSD you are borrowing/repaying, and all the fees associated with this process.&#x20;

Be sure to read and check the two statements before you approve of the changes!

When you're ready, click **Confirm** to finish the borrowing process. To learn more about how to manage your trove after opening it, head over to [Managing Your Trove](/using-yeti-finance/borrowing/managing-your-trove).


# Managing Your Trove

This page will explain to manage your Trove.

## Your Trove

![](/files/wtxIH4vYhlVrEwoRdnsT)

After depositing collateral and borrowing YUSD, the **Trove** section should appear. It shows Trove stats such as **Total Collateral** and **Total Borrowed**. It also shows your Trove's **Collateral Ratio** and **Safety Rating**. Remember to keep the collateral ratio of your Trove **above 110% to avoid liquidations**.

* **Total Collateral** - Total value in [Risk-Adjusted Value](/other/definitions) and USD of all collateral in your Trove.
* **Total Borrowed** - Your total amount of YUSD borrowed. You must pay back this amount to close your Trove.&#x20;
* **Trove Safety Rating** - A rating between 0 and 100 that represents how safe your Trove when factoring in the weight in stablecoins. The higher the number, the safer your Trove is deemed. If a large portion of your Trove is in stables, the safety rating is higher.
* **Collateral Ratio** - The Total Collateral divided by Total Borrowed (must be over 110% to avoid liquidations). The higher the collateral ratio, the safer your position.

### Closing your Trove

If you ever want to exit your position, make sure that you have enough YUSD to return the **Total Borrowed** amount and click the **Close Trove** button. To get additional YUSD to close your Trove, you can purchase YUSD on Curve or Trader Joe to get the additional YUSD. Learn how to buy YUSD on [How to get YETI/YUSD](broken://pages/C7tJlbwgB6XDTr06SDDY).

When the bar is green and filled like the image below, it means your Trove's collateral ratio is high and not close to the minimum collateral ratio.

![](/files/1pbCfAVJmbpvsLluZuLS)

When the bar is red and not filled, it means your Trove is less safe and is in a closer position of getting liquidated.

![](/files/HkgTSabU3fuKHTKtI97T)

Clicking the **Close Trove** button will open a modal that will allow you to reclaim your collateral. Repay the borrowed YUSD amount and check the two statements to close the **Trove**. Remember that you will need enough YUSD in your wallet to repay your YUSD debt.&#x20;

![](/files/KLeuRsyQRYw16xaaUwKG)

You can always manage your Trove on the **Borrow** page! If you ever need to adjust your collateral amount or borrow more YUSD, you can do so easily with the same process highlighted in [Adjusting Your Trove](/using-yeti-finance/borrowing/opening-a-trove#adjusting-your-trove).


# Variable Deposit Fees

This page explains the one time deposit fee in more detail.

### What is a Deposit Fee?

When depositing collateral into the Yeti Finance system, there is a one-time variable deposit fee dependent on the [backing percent](/other/definitions) of that collateral. This fee is separate from the YUSD borrow fee. This fee is in place to limit the amount of collateral which can be borrowed based on the risk and de-incentivize too much risky collateral from backing YUSD.

This is a more market driven approach as opposed to Abracadabra's strategy of having hard caps on risky collateral types. For instance, as risky collateral starts to back more than 1% of the system, the deposit fee for that collateral quickly increases and can naturally encourage more collateral diversity.

![](/files/lklgTHSQ4VMm7BcALNzY)

### What are the deposit fees on Yeti?

These are some examples of collaterals and their associated fees based on risk. The fee explanation section will describe how the variable deposit fee would scale with backing percent. These fee parameters were established in collaboration with our[ economic auditors](/other/protocol-security).

<table><thead><tr><th width="224.03752987997615">Token</th><th>Token class / risk</th><th>Fee explanation</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>WAVAX</td><td>Low risk asset</td><td>Low fee throughout slowly scaling from 0.25-1%</td></tr><tr><td>qiUSDC</td><td>Yield bearing stablecoin </td><td>Low fee throughout slowly scaling from 0.25-1%</td></tr><tr><td>WETH</td><td>Medium-low risk asset</td><td>Low fee for first 50%, scaling up from there to higher percentages</td></tr><tr><td>JOE</td><td>Medium risk asset</td><td>Low fee up to 5% backing, scaling up to significant fee amounts</td></tr><tr><td>DANGER</td><td>High risk asset</td><td>Low fee up to 0.5% backing, scaling up quickly to significant fee amounts</td></tr></tbody></table>

An example of some fee options for a medium risk asset:&#x20;

![](/files/w9W1PMpEkX11njqAu1lT)

Fees are calculated for each asset as Risk-Adjusted Value of Collateral \* fee %, and the deposit fee is added to the trove's YUSD debt.

### What will deposit fees look like at launch?

At launch, the one-time deposit fee will be static and not dependent on backing percent. This is to allow users to deposit more collateral into the system without the punishment of affective the backing percent. Once the system obtains a wide variety of different collateral types and amounts, the variable deposit fee will be enabled. The team will be monitoring the system and enable variable deposit fees once enough liquidity is in the protocol.&#x20;

For information on what the deposit fees will be at launch, check the table below.

| Token       | Deposit Fee | Effective MCR |
| ----------- | ----------- | ------------- |
| WAVAX       | 0.25%       | 110%          |
| WETH.e      | 0.25%       | 110%          |
| WBTC.e      | 0.25%       | 110%          |
| USDC        | 0.2%        | 103%          |
| qiUSDC      | 0.2%        | 105%          |
| qiETH       | 0.25%       | 115%          |
| qiBTC       | 0.25%       | 115%          |
| qiAVAX      | 0.25%       | 115%          |
| AVAX-USDC   | 0.5%        | 115%          |
| WETH.e-AVAX | 0.5%        | 115%          |
| av3CRV      | 0.3%        | 110%          |


# Interest

Please review all protocol documentation and our DISCLAIMERS: RISK OF USING PROTOCOL page before using the Yeti Finance protocol and/or interacting with YETI or the YUSD token.

#### How are interest rates calculated for each trove?

Interest rates differ per collateral, and a user's interest rate depends on their collateral makeup. Imagine collateral 1 comprises 25% of a user's trove, and collateral 2 comprises 75%. C1 has an interest rate of 1%, and C2 has an interest rate of 2%. The user's composite interest rate would be: 25% \* 1% + 75% \* 2% = 1.75%. So, their debt would be charged 1.75% per day, until they adjust their trove and their ratios can change.&#x20;

**When is interest applied?**

Interest rates are applied once per day autonomously. This means that once one day has passed, the next action in the protocol will apply interest, for everyone.&#x20;

There is also an external function which anyone can call to tick the interest, once a day has passed.


# GLP Trove Deposit

Please review all protocol documentation and our DISCLAIMERS: RISK OF USING PROTOCOL page before using the Yeti Finance protocol and/or interacting with YETI or the YUSD token.

**How is GLP different than other collaterals?**

GLP will have a slightly different process for depositing compared to other assets. You will need to first mint the GLP vault token, then you can deposit it into your trove. There is a maximum of $500k GLP to be deposited before collateral gating kicks in. If that limit is hit, this page will be documented with more information on collateral gating.&#x20;

For other collaterals, your asset is automatically deposited for you. But GLP has a two-step process. The Yeti Vault GLP represents an increasing amount of underlying GLP. The ratio will increase over time based on rewards accrued from GMX. The balance shown on the "Mint GLP" page is the amount of GLP you have. The balance shown on the dashboard/borrow page is your Vault GLP balance. The general flow is: GLP -> Vault GLP -> Trove.

**Steps to deposit GLP into your trove:**

1. Obtain GLP on the GMX website. <https://app.gmx.io/#/buy_glp>
2. Wait 15 minutes for the transfer window (See [here](https://gmxio.gitbook.io/gmx/contracts#transferring-staked-glp) for more information on the GMX docs)
3. Head over to the dashboard/borrow page on <https://app.yeti.finance>
4. Open the mint modal
5. Approve and mint Vault GLP
6. Approve and Deposit Vault GLP into your trove.


# Yeti Calculator

This page will explain how to navigate through the Yeti Finance Calculator

## What is the Yeti Calculator?

The Yeti Calculator is the best way to visually see all the factors involved when opening or managing a Trove. We recommend playing around with the Yeti Calculator before opening serious positions on Yeti Finance.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
The Yeti Calculator is not by any means financial advice or a replacement for proper research.
{% endhint %}

Instead, use the Yeti Calculator to visualize possible liquidation scenarios rather than forgoing research.

To get started, head over to <https://app.yeti.finance/#/calculator>.

![](/files/NPZAxEVKXMCkpP6QRdRX)

### Trove Collateral Simulator

The **Trove Collateral Simulator** can be used to simulate different collateral price impacts on your Trove.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you've already opened a Trove, the default state would show the collaterals and balances in your Trove.
{% endhint %}

Hit **Add Collateral Type** to start adding different collaterals to the Yeti Calculator.

![](/files/3OjvVvObsRbLF3gdIEgr)

* **Collateral** - The names of collateral in your Trove/simulation.
* **Balance** - The number of each tokens in your Trove.
* **Current Price** - The market price of the collateral asset.
* **Price Slider** - Simulate the price changes of the collateral in your Trove.
* **Price** - The simulated price of the collateral in your Trove.
* **Safety Ratio** - The ratio that weights the collateral based on risk. Higher-risk collaterals have a lower safety ratio and are given a lower weight when calculating the risk adjusted value of your trove.&#x20;
* **Risk Adjusted Value** - The weighted value of your collateral based on safety ratio. Risk Adjusted Value = Balance \* Price \* Safety Ratio.

### Add Collateral Type

The **Add Collateral Type** modal will pop up and show **Token,** **Safety Ratio**, and **Wallet Balance**. Select the collaterals you want to play around with and hit the Add button afterwards.

![](/files/LxKwqN16xxMnOi1ybTLd)

Afterwards, you can see all the different collateral types you have added. Now you can play around by changing the balances for each collateral and either use the slide to adjust the prices or enter an amount in the boxes.

Remember that **Weighted Collateral Value** is equal to the Balance \* Price \* Safety Ratio of the collateral in your Trove.&#x20;

![](/files/kWXNwZmDINiWGPoS4R31)

Click the **Reset** button to go back to the default state. If you have a Trove open, the default state would be the assets and the amount in your Trove.

# Protocol Mechanisms

Please review Disclaimer: Risk of Using Protocol and Terms of Service before using the Yeti Finance and/or interacting with YETI or YUSD. Yeti Finance & YETI/YUSD are not avaliable in the U.S.

*Note: This is a simplified explanation of all the mechanisms and calculations that make up Yeti Finance. If you want to learn more, please visit our* [*Technical Documentation*](https://techdocs.yeti.finance/)*.*

### How does YUSD keep its $1 USD Peg?  <a href="#how-does-lusd-closely-follow-the-price-of-usd" id="how-does-lusd-closely-follow-the-price-of-usd"></a>

The ability to redeem YUSD for collateral at face value (i.e. 1 YUSD for $1 of collateral) and to mint YUSD against USDC at a minimum collateral ratio of 103% creates a price floor and price ceiling respectively through arbitrage opportunities. They create profit opportunities when YUSD moves off peg and those opportunities remain profitable until YUSD returns to peg. They help set bounds within which the YUSD price can deviate, at $1-redemption fee and $1.03.&#x20;

Additionally, the debt issuance fee increases during times of significant redemptions volume (implying YUSD is below $1). This makes borrowing less attractive and keeps new YUSD from entering the market, which reduces downward price pressure.&#x20;

**Peg Stability Module**

The Peg Stability Module is a smart contract which allows for the swap of YUSD to USDC or USDC to YUSD at a 1 to 1 ratio before fees provided there is available capacity. USDC that is stored in the PSM is deposited into Aave.

See more information about YUSD Price Stability [here](https://techdocs.yeti.finance/how-does-yeti-finance-work/redemptions-and-yusd-price-stability).

### What are redemptions? <a href="#is-a-redemption-the-same-as-paying-back-my-debt" id="is-a-redemption-the-same-as-paying-back-my-debt"></a>

Redemptions are a process where a borrower's collateral is traded to the redeemer, and in return the redeemer pays down the borrower's debt. $X worth of collateral is traded for X YUSD.

Redemptions **do not incur a loss for the borrowers**. If your trove is redeemed against, your trove's collateral ratio will improve, and you will be less at risk for liquidations. However, you will lose some exposure to the assets in your Trove. To compensate for this, **20% of the redemption fee is given back to the borrower.**

Troves in Yeti Finance are ordered based on risk, and redemptions can only occur on the most risky Trove and go up from there. If you want to avoid being redeemed against, an easy way is to maintain a high collateral ratio relative to other troves in the system. Having a higher amount of stablecoins in your Trove allows for shielding against redemptions as well. See more information about Redemptions [here](https://techdocs.yeti.finance/how-does-yeti-finance-work/redemptions-and-yusd-price-stability#what-are-redemptions).

### How do liquidations work?

To ensure YUSD remains fully backed by collateral, Troves that fall under the minimum collateral ratio of 110% will be closed and have its debt paid back externally or redistributed.

The collateral of liquidated Troves are distributed among Stability Pool Providers who profit the \~10% difference in the collateral value and the debt. The Trove owner will keep the YUSD which will be worth less value than the collateral they lost.&#x20;

*Therefore, it is critical to keep your Trove's collateral ratio above 110%.*

Anyone can liquidate a Trove as soon as it drops below the Minimum Collateral Ratio of 110%. The liquidator receives gas compensation of 200 YUSD + 0.5% of the liquidated collateral as reward for liquidation.

See more information about Liquidations [here](https://techdocs.yeti.finance/how-does-yeti-finance-work/stability-pool-and-liquidations#what-are-liquidations).

### How does the Stability Pool work?

The Stability Pool is a pool of YUSD which is used during liquidations to offset the debt from liquidated troves, maintaining the peg of YUSD and also the system solvency.

When a Trove is liquidated, the amount of YUSD corresponding to the debt of the Trove is burned from the Stability Pool’s balance in exchange of the entire collateral from the Trove.

Stability Pool depositors receive a share of liquidated collateral in exchange for their YUSD. See more information about Stability Pool mechanisms, and what happens when the stability pool is empty [here](https://techdocs.yeti.finance/how-does-yeti-finance-work/stability-pool-and-liquidations#what-is-the-stability-pool). Depositors are also incentivized with Yeti farming rewards.&#x20;

### What is Recovery Mode?

The most important invariant in our system is making sure YUSD is fully over-collateralized and redeemable. We offer very highly-capital efficient and low collateral ratio loans. But in order to preserve redeemability in all conditions, we also want to have some safer (more well-capitalized) loans in our system to offset the low-collateral-ratio loans. Recovery mode captures this idea.

When the system's Total Collateral Ratio (TCR) drops below 150%, meaning that YUSD isn't as well-collateralized, the system moves into recovery mode. It goes back into Normal Mode once TCR goes back to above 150%.

During Recovery Mode, Troves with an adjusted collateral ratio **below the TCR of the system** are eligible to be liquidated. Moreover, the system blocks borrower transactions that would further decrease the TCR. New YUSD may only be issued by adjusting existing Troves in a way that improves their collateral ratio, or by opening a new Trove with a collateral ratio >= 150%.&#x20;

**Stablecoin troves are still safe during recovery mode.** Since this uses Adjusted Collateral Ratio, troves with purely stablecoins as collateral are not subject to these conditions due to having a higher AICR. See tech docs for more information [here](https://techdocs.yeti.finance/how-does-yeti-finance-work/recovery-mode).&#x20;

Recovery Mode incentivizes borrowers to behave in ways that raise the TCR back above 150%.

In order to be safe in all conditions, a user should maintain their Trove collateral ratio above the TCR, and even better, above 150%.

Recovery mode is designed to encourage healthy and safe borrowing practices as it acts as a deterrent. The possibility of Recovery Mode inherently guides the system away from ever reaching it. Recovery Mode is not a desirable state but a necessary mechanism for the system. See more information about Recovery Mode [here](https://techdocs.yeti.finance/how-does-yeti-finance-work/recovery-mode#what-is-recovery-mode).

### How do collateral collateralrewards work?

When you deposit collateral on Yeti Finance, you continue earning the asset rewards you normally receive; however, those asset rewards are automatically auto-compoiunded for you.

Auto-compounding means the protocol sell the reward tokens back into the underlying asset. So for example, when you deposit Trader Joe LP tokens into Yeti Finance, we deposit them into the Trader Joe Master Chef contract to earn JOE yield. We periodically claim the JOE rewards and sell it for more JLP tokens. The protocol takes a small cut of these rewards.

### How does the protocol's cut of rewards work?

On most collaterals, the protocol taks a small cut of the earned collaterals reward at the time of the auto-compound.&#x20;

| Collateral                                    | Fee Model                                                                         |
| --------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Joe LP Tokens                                 | Cut of JOE reward on auto-compound                                                |
| Curve av3CRV LP Tokens                        | Cut of WAVAX and CRV reward on auto-compound                                      |
| sJOE (coming soon)                            | Cut of USDC reward on auto-compound                                               |
| Aave Deposited Collateral (coming soon)       | Cut of WAVAX reward (from Avalanche Rush) and yield on deposited collateral       |
| Benqi Deposited Collateral                    | Cut of QI, WAVAX rewards (from Avalanche Rush), and yield on deposited collateral |
| Banker Joe Deposited Collateral (coming soon) | Cut of JOE and yield on deposited collateral                                      |

# Protocol Integrations

This page will breakdown some of Yeti’s current protocol integrations, new and current users can review how Yeti Finance can be used in conjunction with protocols.

**Aave V3 Integration**

[Aave](https://aave.com/) is a decentralized lending protocol where users can provide liquidity to lending markets to earn a passive income.&#x20;

With our Aave integration, users can deposit and borrow against many assets they may have supplied on Aave including: aWAVAX, aWETH, aUSDC, aUSDT, aDAI.

The aToken is a representation of an asset that is deposited into the Aave protocol. An aToken is given to the depositor in exchange for supplying the corresponding asset to Aave and functions to accrue value relative to the original asset through the token’s interest rate.

Depositing any Aave assets into the Yeti Finance protocol unlocks immediate liquidity  on Aave deposit tokens or (aTokens) as users can borrow against them at minimum collateral ratios as low as 105%.&#x20;

Users who deposit Aave V3 assets into Yeti Finance continue have their AVAX and supplier rewards that the aTokens accrue automatically auto-compounded and re-deposited in their trove.\
\
USDC stored in the peg stability module (PSM) is also deposited into Aave.

**BENQI Finance**&#x20;

[BENQI](https://benqi.fi/) is a decentralized lending protocol where users can provide liquidity to lending markets to earn a passive income. BENQI also offers liquid staking wheich allows users to stake AVAX through BENQI to receive an equivalent value, liquid token called sAVAX.

With our BENQI integration, we allow users to collateralize and borrow against BENQI assets like qiUSDC, qiAVAX, qiUSDT, qiDAI, qiWBTC, qiWETH, and sAVAX.

The QiToken is a representation of an asset that is supplied to the BENQI protocol. It is given to the depositor for supplying assets to the protocol and functions to accrue value relative to the original asset through the token’s interest rate.

Depositing any Qi assets into the Yeti Finance protocol unlocks a wide range of yield-farming strategies such as high leverage stablecoin farming.Depositors gain deep, immediate liquidity through being able to borrow against their yield-bearing aTokens at minimum collateral ratios 105%. &#x20;

Users who deposit BENQI assets into Yeti Finance continue have their AVAX/QI and supplier rewards that the aTokens accrue automatically auto-compounded and re-deposited in their trove.

**Chainlink**&#x20;

Yeti has integrated Chainlink Price Feeds on Avalanche mainnet. By integrating the industry-leading decentralized oracle network, Yeti Finance has access to high-quality, tamper-proof price feeds needed to help ensure protocol solvency by enabling the accurate calculation of borrowers’ collateral value.&#x20;

Chainlink was used as the protocol Oracle solution because of its history and prominence as the go-to price oracle infrastructure. Chainlink already helps secure leading DeFi protocols responsible for tens of billions of dollars in smart contract value, maintaining robust security and high availability even amidst unexpected events, such as exchange downtime, flash crashes, and data manipulation attacks via flash loans.&#x20;


# Definitions

Yeti's Protocol Terminology

### Yeti Finance Terms

**Trove** - A user may deposit a basket of assets and open a trove. It is used as backing to mint and withdraw YUSD. Each address may have only one trove and can actively manage it by borrowing more YUSD or repaying its YUSD debt.

**Debt** - The amount of YUSD you have minted against the collateral in your Trove.

**Deposit fee** - This is a one-time fee when collateral is deposited into Yeti. The fee amount varies depending on which collateral and its backing percentage. As backing percentage increases and if the collateral is higher risk, the deposit fee is higher.&#x20;

**Redemption Fee** - There is a one-time fee paid on redemptions. This fee is a minimum of 0.5%, with 0.1% going to the trove being redeemed against.

**Safety Ratio** - Used as a weighting mechanism to give lower risk (less volatile, more liquid) collateral a higher weight in the system compared to higher risk collateral. A high safety ratio means more debt can be issued against the same dollar amount of the asset. More detail is available above in the **Risk-Adjusted Value** definition below.

**Risk-Adjusted Value** - RAV value is a way for the system to weight collateral risk. For some dollar value of collateral, safer collateral has a RAV relative to risky collateral. The risk-adjusted value depends on the collateral's safety ratio. Safety ratios must be between 0 and 1.1. Stable collateral (i.e. qiUSDC, aUSDC, av3CRV) can have a safety ratio between 1 and 1.1, but all other collateral has a safety ratio between 0 and 1.

{% hint style="info" %}
Risk-Adjusted Value = Safety ratio \* Token amount \* Token Price in USD
{% endhint %}

* For example, I have 1000 JOE at a price of $2.75 with a safety ratio of 0.8.&#x20;
  * Risk-Adjusted Value = 0.8 \* 1000 \* 2.75 = 2200 RAV

**Individual Collateral Ratio** - Ratio of the Risk-Adjusted Value of a borrower's trove collateral compared to their debt. Troves are eligible for liquidation if their individual collateral ratio drops below 110%.

{% hint style="info" %}
Individual Collateral Ratio  = RAV of Trove's Collateral / Debt in Trove
{% endhint %}

* For example, I have 1000 JOE at a price of $2.75 with a safety ratio of 0.8. This has a RAV of 2200. I have taken out 2000 YUSD in debt.
  * Individual Collateral Ratio = 2200 RAV / 2000 YUSD = 110%

**Total Collateral Ratio** - The collateral ratio (TCR) of the entire protocol. When TCR is below 150% the system enters recovery mode. In recovery mode, Total Collateral Ratio (TCR) also weights safe collateral higher than high-risk collateral, similar to the way RAV works. The only difference is that stablecoins have a higher weighting in the TCR calculation than in the RAV calculation.

{% hint style="info" %}
TCR = Sum Over Collaterals(Collateral's System Ratio \* Collateral's Dollar Value) / Total YUSD Debt
{% endhint %}

**Backing percent** - How much of the protocol is backed by that particular asset. If the system has RAV of $1,000,000 and it has $10,000 RAV of JOE, then it has 1% backing percent of JOE.

**Recovery Mode** - The system goes into recovery mode when the Total Collateral Ratio of the system is under 150%. The system blocks borrower transactions that would further decrease the TCR. This means that borrowers may not withdraw collateral or borrow YUSD during recovery mode.&#x20;

### Other Useful Definitions

**Stablecoin** - Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies that are designed to be stable in price. Often times their market values will be pegged to some external reference such as the US dollar.&#x20;

**Peg** - When something is pegged, it means that it is fixed to an amount at a particular level. For example, YUSD is pegged to 1 USD and should remain fixed to the price of 1 USD.

**Annual percentage rate (APR)** - APR is expressed as a percentage that represents the monetary value or reward that investors are expected to earn. This includes any fees or additional cots associated, but does not take compounding into account.

**Staking** - Staking is the process of locking up tokens in exchange for rewards or interest. By staking your assets, you support the blockchain network and help confirm transactions.

**Arbitrage** - Arbitrage is the process of purchasing and selling the same asset in different markets in order to profit from the difference in the listed prices. By profiting through exploiting market inefficiencies, it inadvertently resolves the price in different markets.

**High-risk collateral** - High-risk collateral refers to assets with high price volatility. These collateral types will have a lower safety ratio assigned to them because liquidation risk are higher due to fluctuations in price.

## Common Questions

### What differentiates Yeti Finance from other borrowing protocols?&#x20;

Yeti Finance is a next-gen borrowing protocol built on Avalanche. This innovative protocol enables users to borrow against their entire portfolio of crypto assets, while continuing to earn the rewards that their deposited assets generated.

Unlock deep liquidity, borrow at the lowest collateral ratios, and borrow against your entire portfolio to gain better protection against liquidations.

It is most often compared to Abracadabra + Liquity, combining the best of both protocols while innovating with key features like portfolio borrowing, improved risk mechanisms, and lower minimum collateral ratios.

Our native stablecoin, YUSD, is also hard pegged with multiple mechanisms to keep the price of YUSD as stable as possible. Yeti Finance has gone through an extensive auditing process for any potential vulnerabilities and exploits.&#x20;

### How can I be sure that YUSD will remain pegged?

The ability to redeem YUSD for collateral at face value (i.e. 1 YUSD for $1 of collateral) and the minimum collateral ratio of 110% create a price floor and price ceiling (respectively) through arbitrage opportunities. We call these "hard peg mechanisms" since they are based on direct processes. YUSD also benefits from less direct mechanisms for USD parity — called "soft peg mechanisms".&#x20;

One of these mechanisms is parity as a Schelling point. Since Yeti Finance treats YUSD as being equal to USD, parity between the two is an implied equilibrium state of the protocol. Another of these mechanisms is the borrowing fee on new debts. As redemptions increase (implying YUSD is below $1), so too does the baseRate — making borrowing less attractive which keeps new YUSD from hitting the market and driving the price below $1.

### How do you come up with safety ratios for collaterals?

Safety ratio is related to how “risky” a collateral is. Yield bearing stables have a safety ratio up to 1.05, while all non stablecoin collateral will have a safety ratio between 0 and 1. (i.e Highly liquid and trusted collateral will have a safety ratio of 1.0 while more risky collateral will have a safety ratio of 0.8 or 0.5.). It is a factor of liquidity on Avalanche, market cap, and oracle type.

As for how the team comes up with these numbers, the team models and specifies the safety ratio themselves with economic modeling firm, 3σ labs led by @OxVerif. Yeti Finance also has the firm on retainer for any future collateral safety ratios. Down the line, assigning safety ratios will be controlled by governance but as for now it is controlled by the team to allow for a smoother launch.

### How come I can't open a Trove?

One of the most common problems people face when trying to open up a Trove is that a minimum debt of 2000 YUSD + fees is required. Therefore, you must deposit more than 2000 dollars worth of collateral in order to open a Trove.

Keep in mind that your Trove's collateral ratio must be above 110% to open a Trove too.

### What are some preventative measures to avoid liquidations?&#x20;

To avoid liquidations, try to keep your Trove's collateral ratio above 150%. Anyone can liquidate a Trove as soon as it drops below the minimum collateral ratio of 110%. Therefore, it is critical to keep your Trove's collateral ratio above 110%, and above 150% to avoid recovery mode.

When the system's Total Collateral Ratio drops below 150%, the system will enter recovery mode, meaning that Troves with collateral ratios below the TCR are eligible for liquidations.&#x20;

Just to be safe, it is recommend to keep your Trove's collateral ratio above 150% and at healthy ratios if you want to avoid liquidations.

# Bug Bounty Program

Security is Yeti Finance's top priority. We've spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in security in efforts to create a truly innovative borrowing protocol and have had an extensive number of audits from firms and independent auditors alike.  [Audits here.](broken://pages/-MlN82NJRyKTv2Bnmg_y)

Our lucrative bug bounty program rewards anyone who is able to find a security issue or critical vulnerability within our codebase.

If you find any bugs or serious vulnerabilities in Yeti Finance's codebase, please email <team@yetifinance.co> for disclosures or contact @RoboYeti or @TrucoYeti on telegram.


# Using Yeti Finance Testnet

### Step 1: Setup MetaMask[​](https://docs.avax.network/build/tutorials/smart-contracts/deploy-a-smart-contract-on-avalanche-using-remix-and-metamask/#step-1-setting-up-metamask) <a href="#step-1-setting-up-metamask" id="step-1-setting-up-metamask"></a>

Log in to MetaMask -> Click the Network drop-down -> Select Custom RPC (or Add Network)

![metamask network dropdown](https://docs.avax.network/assets/images/image\(60\)-817d82b8dc74892e0fa5334b222c7ac4.png)

**Copy and Paste in Avalanche FUJI Testnet Settings:**[**​**](https://docs.avax.network/build/tutorials/smart-contracts/deploy-a-smart-contract-on-avalanche-using-remix-and-metamask/#fuji-testnet-settings)

* **Network Name**: Avalanche Network
* **New RPC URL**: <https://api.avax.network/ext/bc/C/rpc>
* **ChainID**: `43114`
* **Symbol**: `AVAX`
* **Explorer**: <https://snowtrace.io/>

### Step 2: Funding your C-Chain address[​](https://docs.avax.network/build/tutorials/smart-contracts/deploy-a-smart-contract-on-avalanche-using-remix-and-metamask/#step-2-funding-your-c-chain-address) <a href="#step-2-funding-your-c-chain-address" id="step-2-funding-your-c-chain-address"></a>

#### **Using Test Network Faucet**[​](https://docs.avax.network/build/tutorials/smart-contracts/deploy-a-smart-contract-on-avalanche-using-remix-and-metamask/#using-test-network-faucet) <a href="#using-test-network-faucet" id="using-test-network-faucet"></a>

To get AVAX on the Fuji testnet network, you can use the Test Network Faucet. Navigate to <https://faucet.avax-test.network/> and paste your C-Chain address. The faucet will send the testnet AVAX to your address on the C-Chain. Click the captcha checkbox and select 'Request AVAX' button. Your address will receive test AVAX in a few seconds. You can request 10 test AVAX every hour.&#x20;

Voila! Your Avalanche Fuji Testnet Wallet is now funded with Testnet AVAX.

### Step 3: Use your Testnet AVAX to play around on our Testnet <a href="#step-2-funding-your-c-chain-address" id="step-2-funding-your-c-chain-address"></a>

Our Testnet is deployed on the Avalanche Fuji Network which means the testnet AVAX you received from the faucet can be used to pay for transactions and interact with Yeti Finance's testnet deployment.&#x20;

Access the testnet using this link: [https://testnet.yeti.finance](https://testnet.yeti.finance/)

Start minting USDC, WAVAX, WETH, JOE, WETH/AVAX JLP, and DANGER to play around with Yeti Finance's Testnet! We have provided 'Mint' functionality on the top right corner of the navbar where you can acquire testnet versions of collateral assets which can be used to open a trove on Yeti Finance.
