Alright. I invite you all to my first casthread (probably won't be a thing - casthread.. cast-thread.. threadcast?) Anyway! Let's drive into one of the most exciting defi projects, that I've seen for a long time: Peapods ($PEAS) 👇

Chapter 1️⃣: What's a Pod? 🌱 #Peapods introduces a game-changing concept in #DeFi: wrapping one or multiple liquid assets into a single ERC-20-TKN, known as "Pods" or pTKN within the Peapods ecosystem.

🔄 Pod Tokens (pTKN) can be created by wrapping original assets or purchased directly on decentralized exchanges like #Uniswap. They're always fully backed by the underlying assets (TKN) and can be unwrapped at any time.

💡 Additionally, each Pod has its own liquidity pair which includes a less volatile asset that liquidity providers (LPs) can pair 50/50 with the pTKN. Pod creators can choose initial paired assets like DAI or pOHM (from an OHM-Pod).

📜In summary, a Pod (pTKN) is a fully backed synthetic asset (with one TKN) or an index (with multiple TKN) paired with DAI/pOHM, forming its own liquidity pool. This enables obtaining pTKN through TKN wrapping or direct purchase one the open market.

Chapter 2️⃣: Pod Fees 🔧 Pod creators have the flexibility to adjust pod fees during creation, altering how the pod manages fees and distributes rewards. Up to five different fees can be adjusted, including fees on wrap/unwrap actions and optional fees on direct pTKN trades.

💸 These fees collectively generate revenue for the pod, from which the creator can set a partner fee of up to 5% and a burning fee for the pTKN of up to 50% of the generated fees (with a combined limit of 50%). The remaining revenue is used to buy #PEAS tokens on the market.

❓Ok, so trading pTKNs generates fees which is revenue. But why trade pTKN instead of the original assets (TKN)? 💡Pods create arbitrage opportunities, making pTKN trading appealing to traders seeking profit from price disparities.

Chapter 3️⃣: Liquidity Mining 💰Arbitrage opportunities arise whenever a price deviation occurs between a TKN and its pTKN counterpart. ❓But how does an arbitrage opportunity occur? Here's a simplified example:

Picture this: There are two pools, each containing 3 #PEAS and 3 #DAI, creating a 1 PEAS = 1 DAI price. A trader buys 1 PEAS for 1 DAI in Pool 2, leaving it with 2 PEAS and 4 DAI, resulting in a new price of 1 PEAS = 2 DAI. ➡️A price deviation occurs between pool 1 and 2.

🥷Arbitrageurs exploit this deviation by buying PEAS from Pool 1 at the lower price and selling in Pool 2 at the higher price until equilibrium is restored.

🔄 #Peapods creates new liquidity pools with pTKNs, leading to price deviations between pTKNs and their TKN counterparts. Traders, incentivized by arbitrage opportunities, exploit these deviations, contributing to protocol fees.

🤔We remember the pod fees: The arbitrage trader is forced through the pod's fee tunnel and will always walk it as long as the arbitrage profit is greater than the fees incurred. In other words, the implemented pod fees siphon off a portion of the arbitrage profit.

🔥 Peapods employs mechanisms favoring or "forcing" price deviations, attracting more arbitrageurs and generating additional protocol fees. This includes the burning fee for the pTKN, automatically leading to pTKN price deviations from TKN prices.
