Crypto Market Volatility is Leading to Crypto Interest Rate Revisions

Crypto Market Volatility is Leading to Crypto Interest Rate Revisions

By Cje95 | Chronic Illness and Crypto | 13 Jan 2022


After watching the crypto market pull back the last few weeks I received an email I had been expecting to get. Hodlnaut is revising its crypto interest rates for some of the coins that it has. An important thing to note though is it does not affect all of the cryptos they offer! Stablecoins (USDC, DAI, and USDT) are all not affected by this at all so with USDC and USDT you will still be earning an amazing 12.7% APY!

 

On the other hand BTC, ETH, and wBTC have all decreased. Bitcoin and wBTC both are being decreased by 0.80 so the 7.50% APY will be changed to 6.71% APY starting February 8th. Ethereum though has been pummeled the worst out of all of them the last few weeks and so it is facing a even larger cut to its APY. Currently ETH is also 7.50% APY but this upcoming cut is lowering it to 5.65% APY.

 

Due to the market conditions and the competition facing the different cryptos being offered it makes sense to see a decrease in interest rates with a pull back in the market. What I found really comforting what that these changes will not go into effect till February 8th so individuals have time to plan accordingly! With the stablecoins staying the same I am happily going to continue to compound my USDC holding on Hodlnaut into BTC a feature I have really come to love with the pullback! Hopefully the market continues to stabilize and consolidate so that a new future run up can start sooner rather then later!
