@wen_mooning, @degen_mister_yand Crypgoat return to solve more Compound questions.

Time to end the week with another Compound bounty submission. This time, we’re taking a look at liquidation pricing on Compound with some help from @wen_mooning, @degen_mister_y and Crypgoat.

As you can see in the chart above, created by @wen_mooning and @degen_mister_y, crypto tokens have high levels of volatility now — except for stable coins, that is. Using the data above you can also see that while BTC is the least volatile token, there is still ar roughly 6 % fluctuation. ETH has also been extremely volatile, in large part due to its recent increase in price.

The pair also found that there are in fact some cases when borrowers have been liquidated within 24 hours of completing a transaction on Compound, as you can see below. Note that the value of “fast” liquidation types like these represents liquidations in which there had been at least 1 borrow in the preceding 24 hours.

Crypgoat, meanwhile, took a look at the range, in percentage terms, between the minimum and maximum prices of an asset in the past 45 days, as well as the absolute price levels for all underlying assets in the same time period.

Thanks to Crypgoat, @wen_mooning, and@degen_mister_y for solving this bounty and providing us with the data — make sure to join the Flipside Crypto Discord and subscribe to the Bounty Brief to make sure you don’t miss out on our daily bounties!
