Update: This special vault backed only by SKY now pays a mere 5.5% (borrowers pay 6%)
However, a second large borrower has entered alongside Rune. The Sky Frontier Foundation (a new Cayman foundation company that was recently endowed with $115m in SKY and 50m USDS, most of which it has used to buy SKY in a stealth buyback) has now borrowed 16m USDS against its massive $130m SKY holdings.
It’ll be interesting to see what the Frontier Foundation uses its 16m borrowed funds for.
As stated before, the borrowers control the parameters, so lenders should be aware that withdrawal liquidity may not be available, especially with the official goal of 90% utilization. Also, the yield seems considerably below market for the risks: liquidity, sole collateral is SKY, the borrowers can change parameters, liquidations must be done manually by governance so also controlled by the borrowers.

Note that this is distinct from the Sky Fortification Foundation, another recently endowed Cayman foundation company.
Checking in on this special vault to lend against SKY, the (still subsidized!) yield has now been manually adjusted down to 10%.
It’s amazing to me for people to lend into a market dominated by a single borrower with no history of repayment (so liquidity likely only comes from new depositors), who also controls the oracle, liquidation, LTV, and interest rate parameters. Especially with the interest rate they pay being manually adjusted from 20% to 10% over the last three days!
The spread between sUSDS and stUSDS is a mere 550 bps and still not at its unsubsidized or equilibrium rate. That there are people in this makes me think that yield opportunities at scale (>$5m) must be getting scarce. Because as lopsided as the risk-reward is, it’s always against a standard of “compared to what”
The top lender appears to be Fasanara, who are presumably monitoring liquidity.
