MolQ separates live exposure from a hypothetical target allocation.
Active projected APY
Active projected APY uses the capital and hedge exposure that currently exist:
shield contribution = Aave supply APY x actual shield share
hedge contribution = short funding APY x actual hedge share
active projected APY = shield contribution + hedge contribution
When the Bybit hedge is zero, negative funding does not reduce active projected
APY. It only affects the target scenario.
Target scenario APY
Target scenario APY estimates the current market opportunity if the complete
85% shield and 15% hedge policy were active:
target scenario APY =
(Aave USDe supply APY x 85%) +
(ETHUSDT short funding APY x 15%)
For a short perpetual position:
- Positive funding means longs pay shorts.
- Negative funding means shorts pay longs.
If Aave supply APY is 0.61% and short funding APY is -5.71%, the target
scenario is:
(0.61% x 85%) + (-5.71% x 15%) = -0.34%
Projected APY is not realized performance, a promise, or a guaranteed return. Aave rates and
perpetual funding change continuously. Trading fees, slippage, basis movement, exchange risk,
and operational costs can reduce returns.
Realized profit
Realized external profit is only reported after USDe is returned to the vault
through hardenProfit. Unrealized exchange PnL is displayed separately and is
not counted as vault profit.
