Hedged liquidity pool farming

In specific market conditions, Main St may selectively deploy capital into delta-hedged liquidity pools, particularly when:

  • Pool incentives create yield opportunities exceeding our core options strategy

  • Market conditions reduce options volatility premiums

  • Diversification benefits enhance overall portfolio stability

This approach involves providing liquidity to on-chain pools while hedging underlying assets off-chain to neutralize directional exposure. While we believe options arbitrage offers superior risk-adjusted returns currently, maintaining flexibility across multiple delta-neutral approaches enhances our ability to adapt to changing market conditions.

Strategy Implementation

Our approach follows this process:

  1. Pool Selection using multi-factor analysis evaluating volume, security, and incentive sustainability

  2. Optimized Capital Utilization through strategic redeployment of cash-and-carry collateral to on-chain yield farming, creating multiple yield streams from the same capital base. Allocation percentages adjust based on market conditions, liquidation risk, and asset-specific requirements.

  3. Multi-Layer Yield from trading fees, liquidity incentives, and strategic positioning

  4. Dynamic Optimization through continuous calibration of hedge ratios and impermanent loss mitigation

The technical implementation requires orchestrating complex interactions between on-chain liquidity provision and off-chain hedging operations—a process that would be prohibitively difficult for individual investors but is automated through Main St's infrastructure.
