YIELD TALKS: A Primer on Leveraged Airdrop Farming with Hourglass
Charlie Pyle is the Founder of Hourglass, Mike Silagadze is the CoFounder of ether.fi, and Maksym Repa is the DeFi Lead at Lombard.
In this episode of Yield Talks, we dive deep into Hourglass, a protocol growing sticky liquidity for protocols through time-bound staking. We explore how Hourglass markets provide new leverage and liquidity for assets like eBTC, eETH, and LBTC through Hourglass Boost, along with deeper liquidity for leveraged airdrop farming thanks to Hourglass RFQ. If you're a Pendle degen, you're going to want to learn more about how Hourglass works.
