Description

This vault creates 3.5x leveraged cbETH:ETH position that earns 1x cbETH liquid staking yields plus an additional 2.5x interest differential between cbETH yields and WETH borrow costs.

Deposited cbETH is supplied to Aave enabling the strategy to borrow WETH which is then swapped for more cbETH. This process is repeated to get up to 3.5x leverage which provides a 5% liquidation buffer.
