The Maxi strategy automates the following process of opening a leveraged long or short position on any asset supported by Zeru.
Going long: Borrow a stable asset like DAI and swap it for a volatile asset like ETH. After an increase in the price of ETH, it’s swapped back to DAI and the initial loan is repaid, with any profit returned to the user.
Going short: Borrow a volatile asset like ETH and swap it for a stable asset like DAI. After a decrease in the price of ETH, the DAI is swapped back to ETH and the initial loan is repaid, with any profit returned to the user.
Because Maxi strategies are finances by a much lower borrow rate, fees are significantly lower compared to borrow rates on other platforms such as centralised exchanges and perp DEXs. By accessing up to 15x leverage even on a ZCL balance, profitable Maxi strategies will return a higher APY. Plus, the earn rate of CTs and ZScore growth will also be boosted. You can also earn Zeru points!
