Ampleforth reloaded - a missadventure without happy-end


After exactly 1 month, i decided to remove my liquidity from Uniswap, as it seems that it is not profitable anymore, and the yield farming is not that great also. For exactly 30 days, i received 54 AMPL, evaluated at 35.57 USD.

Not bad for a month, you will say, but now i need to add the taxes. In order to provide liquidity, i paid 13.10 USD. In order to remove the liquidity, i paid 5.91+4.14+2.44=12.49. So total fees were 25.59 USD. 

On top of that, the network seems to be a bit congested.

Estimated Confirmation Duration:  ~ 1 days : 3 hrs : 30 mins : 16 secs 

And i am like, are you being serious, more than 27 hours. I will focus on some other network, from now on, or i will stop trading altogether. It is not a viable option. And from now on, i am staying away from DEFI until it is becoming a bit more regulated, as it is more and more resembling to the ICO period from 2017. I needed to speed  up the transaction to the max gas, otherwise it would have taken days. 

8 hours later, with and increase from 5 to 10 usd in gas fees, it is done. Total profit after one month, using a bit more that 1000 USD, is 5 USD. 

 

So, i am deeply dissapointed with all these DEFI coins, and i do not consider this to be a viable source of income for small amounts of crypto, in the current market. 

 

Have a good day!
