PegasusDAO Bonding — How and Why?
As we roll out our next phase, Bonding will be our main point of focus over the next 24hrs. In order to support the high APY’s we plan to set, we must build ample Treasury Balance through the bonding/minting. In this Medium post, we will ELI5 “Bonding.”
What’s Bonding?
When users bond to the protocol, it allows the DAO’s Treasury to acquire stable assets such as USDC, DAI, and LP in exchange for offering $SUS at a discount. The user can claim this discounted $SUS over a 5-day vesting period, every 8 hrs.
For example: Give PegasusDAO $100 in USDC, and we’ll return $150 worth of SUS (valued at the time of bonding) over 5 days.
Why to Bond on Pegasus DAO?
It’s basically free money. Bonding allows you to purchase SUS at a steep discount relative to the market rate. If Bonding ROI is set at 50%, you get to purchase $40/SUS at $20/SUS. This SUS is paid to your wallet over the course of the next 5 days from the point that you Bond. ($20/SUS will hit your wallet every 8 hrs for the next 5 days).
Why is this a good strategy?
If you acquire $SUS at a discount via the bonding mechanism, over the next 24 hours, you will have about 20% of your SUS in our wallet, that you have acquired at a discount, READY for staking and getting a pie of those sweet sweet APYs.
