A variety of strategies that can help you get the most out of the YSL.IO protocol
YSL-Nomics + The Three Pillars of YSL.IO
Our aim is to create a dynamic ecosystem that is a perpetual motion machine - gaining momentum over time, eventually reaching a point where it is self-sustaining. 
That's why we've designed the YSL.IO protocol from the ground up to be highly engaging with a variety of unique benefits to incentivise participation, whilst ensuring several mechanisms are in place to actively redeploy value back into the ecosystem. We believe this innovative approach will be crucial in creating a scalable, sustainable vibrant ecosystem that has a self-reinforcing loop of momentum. 
Put simply, by offering a variety of components for engagement, our innovative protocol will be capable of attracting a broad range of users, that will be rewarded for participating and contributing, which in turn will lead to more participation and contribution - eventually creating a virtuous circle that will keep the ecosystem sustainable while providing value for all participants. This self-reinforcing positive feedback loop, more commonly known as the flywheel effect has been purposefully integrated into all aspects of the YSL.IO ecosystem. 
You may be wondering, what exactly is the flywheel effect? 
In simple terms, the flywheel effect is the idea that once you start something, it is hard to stop - similar to a snowball rolling down a hill; each element reinforces the next, resulting in an avalanche.
This compelling concept of momentum has inevitability built-in, making it a powerful force to be reckoned with. It is primarily driven by an underlying connection or logical sequence that builds dynamic momentum. In other words, If you do A, you almost can't help but do B. And if you do B, you almost can't help but do C. And around and around it goes! 
For example, let's say you're trying to get in better shape. You start by eating healthier and working out more frequently. This makes you feel better and more confident, so you're more likely to stick with your healthy lifestyle changes. As you continue to see results, you become even more motivated to maintain your new habits. Before you know it, healthy eating and exercise have become a part of your daily routine - all thanks to the flywheel effect!
When harnessed effectively, the flywheel effect can be an extremely powerful tool for creating lasting change. In the case of YSL.IO, this logical sequence will involve the three pillars at the core of our ecosystem - Yield, Staking and Liquidity.
We've designed each component of our ecosystem with these inherent connections in mind so that they can work together seamlessly as a whole; all while supporting and incentivising consistent input to ensure momentum remains high across every aspect. We're confident this novel approach will enable our protocol to build momentum organically to create a dynamic ecosystem that is not only sustainable but also thriving!
Game Theory of YSL.IO
Game theory is the science of strategic decision-making, and it has become an increasingly important tool for those looking to make informed decisions in todays DeFi environment. Irrational exuberance is often the downfall of even the savviest player. But by taking into account the incentives of all actors within a strategic setting, game theory can help assess the viability of long-term opportunities, not just the short-term gains. 
And when it comes to YSL.IO, that's exactly what you should be thinking about. 
YSL.IO has a dynamic ecosystem made up of multiple components - each with its own unique strengths and incentives. This means there are several different yield-enhancing strategies that you could implement to supercharge your returns. 
By stepping back to observe the bigger picture and participate in the game theory of YSL.IO you could be in a better position. So, whether you choose one strategy or carefully balance a position across a few strategies to create synergy - the key would be to implement a strategy that works best for you, there isn't a one-size-fits-all approach.
YSL.IO offers many ways to get involved and earn, whether you refer your friends, deposit into one of our vaults, or take part in our SuperNova lottery. With so many options available, there's no reason not to!
So why wait? Learn how you can unlock all the potential hidden within our ecosystem and explore all the ways you can start maximizing your returns:
​HODL xYSL --> Benefit from its deflationary supply model and pump-amentals.
​HODL bYSL --> Benefit from its link to treasury-held BUSD and be part of the xBUSD airdrop.
​Refer your friends --> Earn BUSD on every transaction of your friend(s) and their downline.
​Stake YSL.IO tokens --> Supercharge your returns by staking in our custom AceVaults.
​Perpetual Ratio --> Take advantage of the growth of vault TVL by depositing early.
​Take part in the SuperNova --> Sacrifice bYSL and have a chance at winning big.
