3/ 🌊 What are liquid staking derivatives?
Normally, staked ETH is not exchangeable. LSDs allow users to trade staked assets as if they were liquid assets. This means that users can access their staked ETH for trading + exchange while still earning yield

5/ 🧨Dyanmicity means we are now adjusting the interest rate based on utilization AND the duration of the utilization rate.

4/ Let’s walk through an example by looking at a bUSDC money market
🔧Customizability means we can now configure the optimal utilization rate range and the min/max shifts of the curve for each token
For example, setting the target range as 70-80% for bUSDC and 20%-30% for bSHIB
