Welcome to the unofficial Curve.fi protocol newsletter.
Another interesting week at Curve!
CRV on Coinbase pro
The $ CRV is now available on Coinbase Pro.
We put the cover back 🍴
Curve has once again been “forked”. But this time we are witnessing something new in the ecosystem, because it is a "legal" fork. Indeed, the Ellipsis’s team (the fork on BSC) and Curve’ team, have come to an agreement. The Curve team will provide technical support.
Curve users can be happy with this as they will receive $ EPS (the equivalent of $ CRV) each week, prorated to the veCRV they own.
The 1st distribution of $EPS is already available.
A question is arising from people who have deposited CRVs in the BackScratcher vault of Yearn. Will they be able to recover those $ EPS? It seems so, at least Yearn will be able to get them back. And the use of those $ EPS will surely be put to a vote.
The same kind of vault at StakeDAO will probably offer the same kind of option, but no info is available at the moment.
An alternative UI 💰
Andre shared a new site to quickly and easily access the Pool Factory pools.
New listing
Staking Rewards now lists $CRV. So you can easily have an estimate of your rewards when you lock $ CRV.
Curve vs Uniswap v3
There has been a lot of discussions in the community around the release of Uniswap v3 and potential competition with Curve.
