Archimedes is an experimental lending and borrowing platform built on top of AMMs like Curve. It offers the following benefits: (1) Liquidity Providers can earn sustainable higher APYs by providing assets to Archimedes 3CRV/lvUSD pools and receiving interest in different assets such as ARCH tokens and stablecoins. (2) Borrowers can earn up to 10x yield compared to yield-bearing stablecoins like OUSD by borrowing from these pools to create leveraged positions on appreciating meta-vaults (like OUSD). Each leveraged position is wrapped with an NFT, allowing users to trade them without unwinding the position.
