The Two-Sided Market

The yld.fun economic engine is a simple (3, 3) flywheel. Believers deploy capital and harvest optimised yield. Quants publish their automated strategies and collect performance fees. The protocol retains a tiny slice, uses it to buy and burn $YLD, and rewards holders. Higher net yield and a shrinking supply attract more capital and more strategists, which tightens the loop again. Everyone’s incentives compound.
