High USDC APYs on Base come from three main sources: - Protocol Incentives: New projects offer bonus token rewards to attract users, similar to promotional discounts - Supply & Demand: Limited USDC lending supply + high borrowing demand drives up rates - Risk Premium: Higher returns typically signal higher risks Important to note: These attractive rates are often temporary and may decrease as more liquidity enters the market or promotional incentives end. Always research thoroughly and understand the risks before lending your assets.
