Yield Boosting
Yield boosting refers to the strategy where instead of depositing your funds into a farm (e.g. Yearn USDC vault), you use your funds to purchase the corresponding PYT on the market (e.g. Yearn USDC vault PYT).
Pros
- Because PYT trades at a price lower than the underlying asset (see here), using the yield boosting strategy can give you a 1-2x multiplier on the yield you earn.
- If the yield rate goes up, your portfolio goes up.
Cons
- If the yield rate goes down, your portfolio goes down. This is the main risk of yield boosting.
