Aethir is thrilled to announce our collaboration with Pendle, a leading DeFi yield protocol, marking a significant milestone in decentralized finance and GPU-based Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN). This collaboration introduces eATH (EigenATH), Aethir’s liquid staking token tied to our EigenLayer ATH Vault, directly to Pendle’s innovative yield trading ecosystem, enabling new DeFi options and yield-generating strategies for Aethir stakers. We want to reward long-term supporters, as it takes commitment to build infrastructure. GPU-based DePIN staking integrates into Pendle’s DeFi framework for the first time, bringing modular infrastructure yield to restaking-native DeFi users.

Here’s More You Can Do With eATH: SY-eATH on Pendle

Aethir’s eATH pool on Pendle allows stakers to leverage SY-eATH, a standardized yield token designed for seamless integration with Pendle’s yield trading and automated market maker (AMM) mechanisms. Users can stake eATH to receive SY-eATH, which can then be split into two distinct components:

  1. Principal Token (PT-eATH): Represents the underlying staked ATH. PT-eATH is tradable and often available at a discount, allowing buyers to gain exposure to eATH at a lower cost.
  2. Yield Token (YT-eATH): This token captures the future staking rewards of eATH. YT-eATH enables users to speculate on or hedge against future yield, providing a tool to monetize rewards upfront.

SY-eATH ensures efficient trading and liquidity provision, making eATH a versatile asset within Pendle’s ecosystem. This token-splitting mechanism empowers Aethir stakers to tailor their strategies, balancing risk and reward in a dynamic DeFi environment.

New Strategies for Aethir Stakers

The eATH pool on Pendle unlocks a range of advanced DeFi strategies, including:

  1. Looping: Amplify returns by leveraging PT-eATH and YT-eATH in iterative yield farming cycles.
  2. Fixed Yield: Secure predictable returns by trading PT-eATH or YT-eATH to lock in profits.
  3. Hedging Against APY Fluctuations: Use YT-eATH to mitigate risks from variable staking rewards, ensuring stability in volatile markets. Note that YT-eATH returns will depend on the ATH utilization of the eATH pool, resulting in a wide range of potential outcomes.

These strategies provide Aethir stakers with tools to optimize their holdings, whether they aim for aggressive growth or conservative risk management.

Benefits for PT-eATH and YT-eATH Holders

The Pendle integration offers distinct advantages for different types of investors:

  1. PT-eATH Buyers: Gain exposure to eATH’s underlying staked ATH at a discounted price, making it an attractive entry point for those bullish on Aethir’s DePIN ecosystem.
  2. YT-eATH Holders: Sell future staking rewards upfront.

This flexibility transforms eATH into a dynamic asset, appealing to long-term stakers and active DeFi traders.

Pioneering GPU-Based DePIN in DeFi

Aethir’s launch of the eATH pool on Pendle is a historic step for GPU-based DePIN, bridging decentralized compute infrastructure with DeFi’s yield trading capabilities. By integrating SY-eATH into Pendle’s AMM, Aethir enables stakers to participate in a modular yield ecosystem, where staking rewards become dynamic financial instruments. This move not only enhances the utility of ATH but also positions Aethir as a leader in merging enterprise-grade GPU infrastructure with DeFi innovation.
