Jars

Tokemak has two pools for their governance token, one on Uniswap v2 ( https://app.uniswap.org/#/add/v2/0x2e9d63788249371f1DFC918a52f8d799F4a38C94/ETH ), and one on Sushiswap ( https://app.sushi.com/add/0x2e9d63788249371f1DFC918a52f8d799F4a38C94/ETH ). With a combined TVL of $40m, and an APR of >500% at time of writing this seems like a prime candidate for a jar, this isn’t however a normal pool 2 farm. Tokemak uses cycles to distribute rewards to depositors. As of right now, cycles are daily, if you deposit during a cycle you’ll begin earning TOKE at the start of next cycle. Rewards are claimable weekly, this means that if you deposited during cycle 3 you’ll acrue TOKE from the start of cycle 4 and be able to claim at the start of cycle 8. Eventually Tokemak will transition to weekly cycles, which means that you’ll start accrueing TOKE in the weekly cycle after you deposit. The medium link to their article about cycles: https://medium.com/tokemak/toke-rewards-cycles-reminder-6c00c0380297 Since locking liquidity in jars is being explored, and this requires locking, this sounds like a good candidate for a jar.

Tokemak allows you to deposit single sided assets, at time of writing ETH and USDC, which are then used to provide liquidity elsewhere. TOKE stakers (Liquidity Directors) vote on where deposited assets go to provide liquidity on various exchanges. TOKE is also used to collateralize the network to mitigate the IL risk, in this way IL risk is transferred from LP’ers to LD’ers. Since all farming works in cycles on Tokemak, this jar would also require locking liquidity. Cycles are explained in my post here: https://feedback.pickle.finance/jars/p/tokemak-uniswapsushiswap-jar My idea is to create symbiotic strat for these single sided assets: deposit ETH or USDC (and in the future maybe more assets), harvest TOKE, deposit TOKE in the single sided TOKE pool, withdraw principal + TOKE upon exiting the jar.

The current APY of the renBTCCRV Jar on Pickle Finance (Polygon) is 0.34% with only $18K in the Jar. The below strategy can incentivise the size of the pool to grow and encourage people to start farming their BTC. Steps: Acquire renBTC in the cheapest possible way using either Hippodrome or Cometh. Provide liquidity on renBTCCRV pool on Curve Polygon and get base APY of 0.28% Sell the LM rewards (3.18% CRV and 2.85% WMATIC) to get more renBTC on Cometh or Hippodrome, whichever is cheaper. LP again on curve and repeat this process. Deposit LP token on Pickle and repeat steps 1 to 4. This strategy can possibly give approximately 5.00% returns on your renBTC provided that the interest rates and LM rewards on curve finance are stable. When you compare that with the “0% rate'' you get on Aave or Compound, this is a much better alternative to work your BTC. Wanted to attach my calculations but I could only attach an image. So DM me on Discord YJN#6620 to know more.

Following idea: Pickle locks QI to boost the farms User can choose when he deposits how long he wants to lock (don´t know if this is possible) Rewards from the user get locked and boost the farm Benefits: additional yield+ long term commitment to pickle and QI DAO + less sell pressure for QI

We'll soon be migrating the current incentivized UNI v2 pool to sushiswap, and we'll be getting SUSHI rewards on top of the PICKLE rewards. My suggestion would be a jar to either 1) autocompound the SUSHI into more PICKLE/ETH sLP. Or 2) expand upon the symbiotic strategy and stake the SUSHI for xSUSHI.

Sorbetto Fragola just launched which is a product that wraps Uniswap V3 LPs. APRs (which are as of right now 300%+ for eth/usdt and eth/usdc) can be viewed over here (all of this comes just from trading fees): https://popsicle.finance/dashboard . Making a jar for these LPs which automatically reinvests the fees could be a nice opportunity.
