This vault optimizes yields for Curve's TricryptoUSDC pool through Convex Finance. Like TricryptoUSDT, this pool enables efficient swaps between major crypto assets, but uses USDC as the stablecoin component.
How This Vault Works
Provide USDC, WBTC, and/or WETH to Curve's Tricrypto pool
Concentrated liquidity adjusting around current prices
Higher fees than stablecoin pools (0.04-0.4%)
Three-asset balanced composition
Pool Assets
USDC: Circle's regulated stablecoin providing dollar base
WBTC: Wrapped Bitcoin for BTC exposure
WETH: Wrapped Ether for ETH exposure
TricryptoUSDC vs TricryptoUSDT
Both pools serve similar functions but differ in:
Stablecoin backing (Circle vs Tether)
Regulatory profile (USDC more regulated)
Liquidity depth and trading patterns
User preferences between stablecoins
Fee Structure
Standard Convex fees:
16% of CRV rewards
No deposit/withdrawal fees
Tricrypto has higher swap fees than stable pools
Risk Disclosures
Impermanent Loss Risk: Significant IL exposure due to volatile asset composition. Price divergence between USDC, WBTC, and WETH causes losses.
Smart Contract Risk: Exposure to Curve's crypto pool algorithm and Convex contracts.
USDC Risk: Circle stablecoin dependent on reserves and regulatory compliance.
WBTC Custody Risk: BitGo custody of underlying Bitcoin.
Volatility Risk: This pool is much more volatile than stablecoin-only pools.
Correlation Risk: Crypto assets often move together but BTC/ETH divergence creates additional IL.
