Smart Markets in DeFi
summary
Sifchain describes a working-but-revised Protocol Monetary Trading Policy (PMTP) that raised a token ~70% in two weeks then prompted a market crash, explains why it was removed and retooled, and lays out concrete next steps: a margin-trading MVP to let users long listed tokens, governance simulations with partners like Block Science to test policies, and plans to open-source the ETL pipeline for on-chain metrics. Claims include LP upside in the form of potentially hundreds-to-thousands percent APR under certain governed features, but stress that rigorous simulation and staged rollout are required.
