Enso is one of the leading solvers in the DeFi industry. During DappCon 2024, its founder, , , which helped Enso raise $4.2 million in funds.
During the presentation, to showcase Enso’s solver service. Today, let’s examine this transaction using way.
Acting as a solver, Enso swaps the user’s 73.5 ETH for 216,661.863807 hyUSD, +276.533490 wcUSDCv3, and 80.362625 sDAI via Curve.fi, Compound, Balancer, and Uniswap.
Enso swaps the user’s ETH for USDC for future uses.
Step 4-5: Swap ETH for USDC for future use.
Enso swaps varying amounts of ETH through a series of tokens using platforms like Curve.fi, Uniswap, and Balancer, ultimately converting into DAI.
Enso uses previous USDC and DAI to get derivative tokens, which are staked to receive the minted hyUSD being sent to the user.
Step 98-104: Swap eUSD3CRV-f -> cvxeUSD3CRV-f -> stkcvxeUSD3CRV-f, via Convex.
Step 105-109: Swap USDC -> cUSDCv3 -> wcUSDCv3, via Compound.
Step 111-113: Deposit sDAI, stkcvxeUSD3CRV-f, and wcUSDCv3 into Reserve for hyUSD.
Enso: acting as the solver for the transaction to swap the user’s ETH for hyUSD. Enso Shortcuts is the DeFi automated strategy and action engine under the hood in the token flow chart.
Curve.fi: the intermediate exchange of ETH and other stablecoins.
Balancer: the intermediate exchange of stablecoins.
Convex: being built on top of Curve.fi. It allows liquidity providers (LPs) and CRV stakers to earn additional interest rewards without locking their tokens directly on Curve.
Compound: the DeFi lending protocol. When you deposit USDC assets into the Compound, like in this transaction, you receive cUSDC tokens.
Reserve: the DeFi platform that is designed to create stable, asset-backed currencies known as RTokens. hyUSD is an RToken issued through the Reserve Protocol.
