vyper VS yearn-protocol

🚧 To do this, we need to create a mocks/ folder inside the contracts/ folder, and within it, create an Token.vy file. You can add the code from the following link to this file: Vyper ERC20 Token.

Patrick Collins, CEO of uh "Chain Accel / Cyfrin / Alpha Chain" (video, kinda) gave a different kind of talk than most, focusing on the differences between Solidity and Vyper in terms of their compilation strategies and optimizations. Maybe it's just nice to see a talk that's just a collection of technical fun facts rather than trying to shill me on their product. I'll admit I didn't realize people still used Vyper, but I'm not a smart contract dev and their github is still active at least. An interesting look into compiled EVM bytecode/opcode.

Feel stuck? Take a look at the Vyperlang Official Implemenation

Swap.Dance is an Ethereum dApp which allows anyone to swap ERC20 tokens and ETH with low slippage. Proof of Trade concept provides a new type of staking mechanism for LP providers. Smart contracts were deployed on Vyper v0.3.3 and are immutable and not upgradeable. Github.

Vyper - Pythonic Smart Contract Language for the EVM

Create a new file named SampleToken.vy in contracts/ directory. Then implement a smart contract while referring to the Vyper ERC20 example.

How about vyper? https://github.com/vyperlang/vyper

1) Research the community that surrounds the project and see how the general ecosystem works. Normally, on Discord or Telegram you can start talking with devs and get a deeper understanding of the project. 2) Try to narrow down, which kind of project you want to contribute. A DEX / DeFi project like UniSwap or SushiSwap or yarn.finance? Or more like a tool like MetaMask? Or even, more like an Ethereum client like Besu, Geth or Erigon? Or even, Vyper or Solidity?

You could try Vyper if you'd want to try developing smart contracts.

> I need a hero, and by that, I mean that I need a usable methodology for building scaleable decentralized apps. Yes, you've heard that right. We don't need more "Ethereum killers" that can do 10x more tx/s than Ethereum. Those are useless.

Having worked on large Ethereum smart contracts (running an auction on chain) over two years, I fully agree with this. Ethereum needs better smart contract languages, better compilers and better dev tooling.

As our smart contract written in Vyper (for ease of auditing) grew larger and larger, eventually we failed to deploy on the testnet, and closer inspection reveal that the compiler was blowing up code size which I had to patch[0]. Down the line upstream further increased gas costs by emitting code that zeroed out every member of an array (note the EVM already has all memory set to 0). To support efficient insertion/deletion of bids we had to handroll a skip list on the blockchain(!), because there are no Vyper libraries.

On the language development side, things don't look too pretty either, I ended up having to write an EVM assembler from scratch[1], but deeper still are problems such as a lack of a separate call stack in EVM, so procedure calls always end up clunky and implementation-dependent.

Perhaps eWASM will alleviate some of these concerns. But until then, the entire dev process for writing smart contracts is painful.

Well, I would be way off my knowledge comfort zone since I personally cannot absorb ETH gas fees in DeFi. So I cannot help you more than that. I believe YearnFinance is one of the well respected DeFi solution on Ethereum, and probably the place I would start with.

Also interested in any kind of robot auto-investment of ETH, some system where you deposit funds and they are managed on your behalf following the market and trends. I *think* this is what https://yearn.finance is trying to do, but they are in beta. Has anyone built a fully operational and proven auto ETH investment platform?

The latter is how you see big yields that wouldn't make much sense otherwise. The thing is that the value of those governance tokens can fluctuate a LOT more than your base assets, so unless you sell them immediately, your rewards could lose value. That's where yield aggregators (also known as auto-compounders) like yearn.finance come in. They automatically convert the rewards back into the base assets so that you don't have to hold those governance tokens.

Seriously. If we've learnt anything from other hypes like yearn.finance last year it's this:

check this link for some of the yields, u can get on yearn.finance. theirs other ones but this ones pretty straight forward to use

I recently put some $WFTM in beta.yearn.finance, to then take the $yvWFTM to abracadabra. All went well. Today I wanted to put in more wFTM into that same yearn vault. After doing so, I can't seem to locate the receipt token. Anyone have any idea where to find it? It's not in my Metamask and I can't find it on yearn.finance either...

yearn.finance is a DeFi yield-farming aggregator service. This means that the protocol finds the best yields across platforms like Aave, Compound, and dYdX, mostly across Ethereum, to earn in-kind yields based on the aforementioned protocols.

During one of their AMA's a while back Alex mentioned that the reason Celsius' rates are so high is because they use all the defi apps like AAVE, Compound, etc and switch amongst them to get the best rates. Never really questioned that answer too much, but today I was looking at yearn.finance and that is what they claim to do (aggregate other defi rates and switch to the best one), but yearn is offering between 2% and 4%. Most defi apps like curve also offer around 2.5% or so on stablecoins. Just wondering how Celsius is able to offer 8.88% yield (and BlockFi is able to offer 8.25%), which is more than twice any rates I was able to find on defi? Still learning here so forgive me if I am missing something.
