Protocol level

JLP pool

The JLP pool held relatively steady in nominal terms this week, growing predominantly in ETH and BTC.

The pool’s composition also hemmed close to target, with BTC diverging ~5% off-target but utilization rates remaining steady.

JLP Market Comparison

JLP’s market price increased by 0.09% over the last week. In the same period, BTC increased by 2.29%, ETH decreased by 6.50%, and SOL decreased by 0.43%.

Given the JLP pool’s weights:

  • SOL - 45.39%

  • WBTC - 14.52%

  • WETH - 9.47%

  • USDC - 26.81%

  • USDT - 3.8%

JLP’s basket price decreased by 0.48%, reflecting an outperformance of 0.57% for LPs due to the long-skewed imbalance of open interest.
