Ampleforth #AMPL

Ampleforth ➕

The vision. The path.

All revealed in our deep dive.

Most stablecoins can be paused.

Circle has blacklisted nearly $100M in USDC across 275+ addresses, and Tether has frozen more than $500M to date.

Ethena’s reliance on centralized exchanges introduces a single point of regulatory failure.

It only takes one phone call.

These are all deliberate features, not bugs.

In contrast, @SPOTprotocol does not have admin keys, a pause function, or the ability to censor or reverse. It cannot be altered or halted by Circle, banks, or us.

SPOT doesn’t know your name or address. That’s by design.

Censorship resistance is a foundational requirement for trust-minimized money. Because when control exists, it’s eventually used.

SPOT can’t be frozen because it was never built to obey.

Why not just hold $BTC?

Because @SPOTprotocol exists.

$SPOT gives portfolio architects a strategic asset to increase performance by limiting downside and earning yield on otherwise stable value holdings.

Portfolios integrating both BTC and SPOT benefit from:

- Bitcoin’s long-term upside
- SPOT’s ability to smooth volatility and offer real yield

Bitcoin’s long-term trajectory remains upward, but its occasional bouts of extreme volatility severely limit it as a reliable financial tool outside speculation or long-term value holding.

BTC can routinely face 30% + drawdowns that completely erase its credibility for different financial applications, like contract denominations.

In contrast, SPOT introduces a fundamentally new dynamic: scarcity and genuine stability.

Designed to resist inflation and minimize volatility, SPOT sacrifices extreme upside potential for drastically reduced downside risk, creating a more practical asset that serves equally well as a store of value and a stable unit of account.

Plus, SPOT generates consistent, real yield purely through organic market activity.

So, SPOT acts like a yield-generating, low-volatility Bitcoin offering a more favorable risk profile throughout the market cycle.

Inflation is a feature, not a bug.

Central banks like the US Fed target 3-4% inflation to “stimulate spending”.

But what they’re really doing is quietly taxing fiat savers. Since 1913, the dollar has lost over 97% of its value.

I.e., $100 saved in 1913 buys just $3 worth today. This is the ultimate, generationally slow rug pull.

@SPOTprotocol is designed to let you truly opt out of fiat inflation. It is decentralized, mathematically driven, and inflation-resistant.

When central banks print, SPOT appreciates.

All you need to do is hold.

Banks bail out their own risk.

SPOT doesn’t.

Every time the fiat system starts to break, the solution is always the same: print more.

When fiat economies fail, central banks rescue themselves at the expense of taxpayers and retail investors.

Over $4.5 trillion was printed post-COVID, and balance sheets are still bloated.

The US Fed alone is sitting on tens of billions in unrealized losses.

@SPOTprotocol was built on a different foundation.

Ampleforth is a nondiscretionary, self-adjusting system engineered to respond automatically to demand without human intervention or central authority.

From this base, Ampleforth created $SPOT: a low-volatility, trust-minimized store of value that holds firm when everything else breaks.

It can’t be bailed out.
It can’t be bribed.
And it doesn’t require trust.

No Fed. No printer. No politics.
Just math.

When fiat breaks, they print.
SPOT doesn't break, it bends.

Unlike emission-fueled rewards, $AMPL and $SPOT offer real yield.

Not from inflation, dilution, or token printing, but from organic network growth and on-chain economic activity.

As AMPL demand expands and SPOT gains adoption, users earn yield transparently through rebasing dynamics and ecosystem usage.

No inflation.
No subsidies.
Just sustainable, decentralized income.

Low volatility > zero volatility — and now it pays.

Thanks to this market correction, the SPOT/USDC Vault APY has surged to over 110%

Generating stable, predictable yield is the holy grail of DeFi.

And while this 110% APY spike comes from extraordinary market events, the SPOT/USDC vault on https://t.co/pWzky8AmDd has consistently delivered impressive returns, proving its staying power across market conditions.

Here is what LPs are earning right now:

➕21% APY (All-Time Average) – Solid long-term yield.
➕111% APY (Last 38 Hours) – A major spike driven by increased trading volume.
➕27% APY (Current APY of Base Pool + Bootstrap Rewards) – Boosted returns thanks to the ongoing incentives.

Unlike most high-yield DeFi pools, the SPOT/USDC vault isn’t reliant on inflationary token emissions.

Instead, it:
➕ Earns fees from real trading volume.
➕ Maintains a near delta-neutral position through automated rebalancing.
➕ Capitalizes on SPOT’s mean-reverting price action for consistent profits.

With the recent 111% APY surge, yields will continue trending upward as the moving average catches up.

Of course, $SPOT dropped ~8% in the market correction.

Why LP now?

Because this is all by design. SPOT has a free-floating price to maintain low volatility, not zero.

Thanks to SPOT’s underlying mechanics, it’s a mean-reverting asset, meaning it will naturally return to fair value over time.

Get ready, Colorado.

The Ampleforth➕ team has landed at @EthereumDenver.

Who's joining?

Incredible!

The Stratosphere vault has amassed a total of 1 million deposits in only a few hours.

AMPL's daily rebasing means it experiences volatility in both price and supply.

This makes it trickier to trade, integrate on exchanges, or use in DeFi apps.

The solution?

$wAMPL! (Wrapped $AMPL)

wAMPL doesn’t rebase.

It wraps your AMPL, so your token count stays fixed. Volatility is shifted purely into price to reflect the underlying AMPL supply changes.

Why is this advantageous?

1. Easier to integrate into DeFi platforms
2. Straightforward to track and trade
3. Maintains exposure to AMPL

How to get it?

You can either buy on supported DEXs (Uniswap) or CEXs (https://t.co/0IamyFmo1Z), or you can wrap your own AMPL at https://t.co/STU4HKcHcZ

The recording of our second episode of the Ampleforth➕Zoomed Out show, with @brandoniles, @evankuo, and our special guest @plainfran.

In the past 6 months, $SPOT supply has moved in the opposite direction of $AMPL's market cap.

AMPL 📈, SPOT supply 📉 and vice versa.

It demonstrates a clear counter-cyclical dynamic.

Join us for our next Ampleforth➕Zoomed Out video spaces on January 30th with @evankuo, @brandoniles, @sidahimsa, and special guest @plainfran.

Operation Bootstrap has been overwhelming!

It took less than 24 hours to see over $3,000,000 deposited into the Troposphere vault.

Impressive, very based.

➕ https://bootstrap.spot.cash/

$10M in rewards. Zero gimmicks. Maximum impact.

Operation Bootstrap is here to grow $SPOT, fuel liquidity, and set the stage for $USDaf — a decentralized, inflation-resistant stable asset by @asymmetryfin.

Add liquidity in the SPOT/USDC pool and earn $AMPL rewards while moving beyond the low returns of stablecoin pairs without taking on the high risks of volatile assets.

With reduced price swings and robust base yields, it’s no boom-bust chaos — just a sustainable system for stability and growth.

The traditional crypto cycle is stuck in a loop.

Buy Bitcoin when markets are greedy, and sell into stablecoins when fear sets in.

This synchronized behavior locks the market into cycles of booms and inevitable busts.

When fear hits, growth halts.

But what if fear didn’t lead to collapse?
What if market downturns fueled growth instead?

Markets don't have to crash.

The Evergreen Cycle turns boom and bust into stability and growth.

Buy AMPL when bullish, and rotate into SPOT when bearish.

Simple rules, big impact.
