1/ The LFG Council just voted to deploy 1.5B in capital (0.75B in BTC, 0.75B in UST) to allay market concerns around UST. Some more context on why and how:

1/ Over the past several days, market volatility across crypto assets has been significant. The market turmoil is also reflected by the past week's uncertain macro conditions across legacy asset classes.

2/ First, *LFG is not trying to exit its bitcoin position*. The goal is to have this capital in the hands of a professional market maker such that: 1) Buy UST if price < peg 2) Buy BTC if price >= peg thus significantly strengthening the liquidity around UST peg

when is the loan due and what happens when it is? does that liquidity go away? you think it'll be replaced by organic demand?

How is this different from what $ichi did? using the treasury to put liquidity in? minus univ3 it seems the same and it seems like that doesn't work long term.

they used the treasury to backstop liquidity and then it ran out. it was not replaced by organic demand in time, apparently....

could we not instead? or like, not sell 1.5 billion dollars worth of btc during a bear market? that's the part we particularly do not enjoy. and don't say "we're not selling we're buying" because i'm not retarded.
