365 emergency repay triggers fired during the crash
BUT not one protected position was liquidated
between jan 25 and feb 9 @DeFiSaver executed 382 automated repays on Aave V3 across Ethereum Mainnet, Arbitrum, Base and Optimism
365 of those were emergency interventions on positions at or below a 150% safety ratio
the system:
• protected $446.3m in collateral
• defended $335m in debt
• helped users avoid an estimated $8.38m in third-party liquidation penalties
BUT the important part is how:
a standard liquidation can close 50% of a position’s debt and charge roughly 5% on the amount liquidated
the user loses a large chunk of collateral, usually during the worst part of the selloff
DeFi Saver instead calculates the minimum repay needed to restore the position to its configured targe (with a 0.3% fee charged only on the amount swapped)
one real mainnet position had $7.16m in debt (yeesh)
a standard liquidation could have cost roughly $179k in penalties (double yeesh)
DeFi Saver swapped around $1.97m of WETH, repaid $1.91m of debt and charged a $5.9k automation fee (holy moly)
around $173k saved
97% less than the estimated liquidation penalty
pretty damn incredible performance during such a volatile period...
