Ryan starts a conversation with a few of the big brains about the fee structure of v2 Vaults. It’s worth navigating.
TLDR: Vaults pay fees to Treasury and team by minting interest bearing vault shares instead pulling from the profits.

Yearn seizing Big Data Protocol opportunities 💿

Ceazor shares the quick work of the Yearn developer team for seeing, and acting on a short-term yield opportunity that benefited Yearn depositors. During 6 days, both the v2 YFI yVault and the v2 ETH yVault benefited from strategies that staked the underlying tokens into seed pools for Big Data Protocol to farm BDP rewards.
