Yesterday, while researching low-loss cross-chain USDC on Sonic, I discovered an opportunity for a stablecoin with a single token 48% APR.

Today, I saw the news that Binance has completed the integration of USDC on the Sonic network and has opened deposits and withdrawals.

The importance of stablecoins as one of the three key elements of DeFi on public chains (decentralized exchanges, lending, and stablecoins) is self-evident.

Not to mention improving the liquidity of public chains, just lowering the entry threshold for capital inflow is a huge benefit.

Let's take the opportunity to talk about @SonicLabs. I've been meaning to find time to study it, but I've always put it off.

It just so happens that Haedal has just ended. The lesson it taught me, besides the need for semicolons, is that as a gold miner, profit should be the priority, with airdrop expectations as a supplement.

What attracts people the most about Sonic is definitely the $S airdrop plan of around 200 million.

Currently, there is about a month left in the first quarter. Perhaps when everyone sees that it's about to end and rushes in, they can catch a wave. Miners know that mining is the sweetest at the start and the end.

According to the rules of the airdrop plan, users can exchange their points for airdrop tokens after the season ends. Points can be earned through holding or participating in activities.

Then there is the most conservative strategy:

1) Hold tokens that can earn points passively, such as USDC.e and aUSDC.

There is also a conservative strategy with a bit of risk:

2) Use stablecoins to form LPs on @ShadowOnSonic, earning a bit of APR while also earning some points.

Choosing conservatively inevitably means that the interest rates are not enough, so here comes a somewhat complex offensive strategy within the conservative approach:

3) Use mainstream coins that support earning points (ETH/BTC) to continue forming LPs on Shadow, to earn more APR and slightly fewer points.

Going a bit higher, increasing the risk, we can:

4) Cycle loans on @SiloFinance, with a maximum leverage of up to 20 times, gaining multiple points and interest differentials.

5) Deposit USDC in @eulerfinance and @Rings_Protocol to mint over-collateralized stablecoin scUSD, achieving 10 times leverage, and also gaining multiple points and potential airdrops.

6) More gameplay is still being explored...

The above are the strategies I have initially explored. I have only reached the third step!

➤ The following tokens can earn points:

6 times enhancement: USDC.e, scUSD, stkscUSD, wstkscUSD, aUSDC, bUSDC.e-20

4 times enhancement: s, wS, stS, OS, wOS, anS, wanS, beS, scETH, stkscETH, wstkscETH, scBTC, stkscBTC, wstkscBTC

2 times enhancement: WETH, USDT, x33

➤ Note:

1) WETH, USDT, scUSD, scETH, scBTC, aUSDC, and bUSDC.e-20 only earn activity points, not passive points;

2) The liquidity pool requires both tokens to be tokens that can earn points.
