These vaults are designed to efficiently direct a portion of the protocol's revenue to [stakers](https://iq.wiki/wiki/staking). With a conservative estimated 40% [APR](https://iq.wiki/wiki/annual-percentage-rate-apr), YFX secured $2 million through a presale, engaging in private sales, and launching on [GMD Protocol](https://iq.wiki/wiki/gmd-protocol)'s launchpad.  \n  \nThe protocol actively deploys funds across various [yield farming](https://iq.wiki/wiki/yield-farming) applications, intending to enhance the relative fund value and fortify the token's overall worth. YFX is accessible on multiple platforms, including [Mantle](https://iq.wiki/wiki/mantle-network), [Avalanche](https://iq.wiki/wiki/avalanche), and [Arbitrum](https://iq.wiki/wiki/arbitrum).[\\[1\\]](#cite-id-lfss7gusp5b)[\\[2\\]](#cite-id-igmx7a67cgr)[\\[3\\]](#cite-id-u154pnril8p)[\\[4\\]](#cite-id-rwoasdf4ug)[\\[5\\]](#cite-id-1k5cvjkk1yk)  \n  \n## Revenue Models  \n  \n### Primary Model  \n  \nThe core revenue model of the Yield Farming Index Protocol is designed with specific objectives in mind. The protocol aims to generate revenue primarily through [yield farming](https://iq.wiki/wiki/yield-farming), utilizing its treasury to provide liquidity to a diverse range of [DeFi](https://iq.wiki/wiki/defi) protocols. This strategy seeks to achieve a predictable 2.0–2.5% monthly return on the value of the underlying treasury, establishing a stable income stream.  \n  \nAdditionally, the protocol allocates a portion of its generated income as incentives, intended to encourage the development of Solidity forks. By offering competitive [annual percentage rates (APRs)](https://iq.wiki/wiki/annual-percentage-rate-apr) to liquidity providers dealing with tokens exhibiting appreciating values, the protocol aspires to stimulate trading activity and volume.  \n  \nThis incentive structure is designed to attract user participation, fostering liquidity provision and, consequently, enhancing the overall usage and revenue of the platform.[\\[6\\]](#cite-id-4f3qpr1pubs)  \n  \n### Secondary Model  \n  \nThe Yield Farming Index Protocol integrates a secondary revenue model focused on growth equity investments within the crypto space.  \n  \n[YFX](https://iq.wiki/wiki/yield-farming-index-token-dollaryfx) traders aim to identify and present potential growth opportunities to the community for collective decision-making. If the community approves an investment proposal, the protocol seeks to invest to realize returns on these investments as an additional source of revenue.  \n  \nThis model is designed to utilize the collective insight of the community in exploring and potentially benefiting from promising opportunities in the ever-evolving crypto landscape.[\\[6\\]](#cite-id-4f3qpr1pubs)  \n  \n# Yield Farming Index Token ($YFX)  \n  \nThe [YFX token](https://iq.wiki/wiki/yield-farming-index-token-dollaryfx) is designed to facilitate participation in single-stake vaults of the [$YFX token](https://iq.wiki/wiki/yield-farming-index-token-dollaryfx), intending to streamline a portion of the protocol's revenue towards [stakers](https://iq.wiki/wiki/staking). The determination of the total market cap of [YFX](https://iq.wiki/wiki/yield-farming-index-token-dollaryfx) is linked to the dollar amount raised during the presale, establishing a fixed total supply. For example, if $1,000,000 is raised, the [YFX](https://iq.wiki/wiki/yield-farming-index-token-dollaryfx) total supply will be set at 1,000,000, gradually decreasing over time.[\\[7\\]](#cite-id-40bx3qnqwt5)[\\[8\\]](#cite-id-sdy4ecoaaqk)[\\[9\\]](#cite-id-owmjy8ynd7)","summary":"The Yield Farming Index (YFX) Protocol is a decentralized crypto hedge fund that applies trading strategies and risk management for generating robust returns.","categories":[{"id":"organizations","title":"Organizations"}],"promoted":0,"tags":[{"id":"Protocols"},{"id":"Organizations"}],"metadata":[{"id":"references","value":"[{\"id\":\"lfss7gusp5b\",\"url\":\"https://yfxprotocol.xyz/\",\"description\":\"yfx protocol introduction\",\"timestamp\":1706500620496},{\"id\":\"igmx7a67cgr\",\"url\":\"https://yieldfarming-index.gitbook.io/yfx-docs/yfx-protocol-overview/flywheel-effect\",\"description\":\"docs introduction\",\"timestamp\":1706500637717},{\"id\":\"u154pnril8p\",\"url\":\"https://medium.com/@gmdprotocol/gmd-launchpad-1-yfx-protocol-5f11a5ccc0de\",\"description\":\"medium - YFX and Gmd launchpad\",\"timestamp\":1706500653882},{\"id\":\"rwoasdf4ug\",\"url\":\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wswVARitrD8\",\"description\":\"youtube - stablecoin YFX protocol\",\"timestamp\":1706500678990},{\"id\":\"1k5cvjkk1yk\",\"url\":\"https://www.fxempire.com/crypto/yieldfarming-index/profile\",\"description\":\"fxempire yfx protocol\",\"timestamp\":1706500695627},{\"id\":\"4f3qpr1pubs\",\"url\":\"https://yieldfarming-index.gitbook.io/yfx-docs/investment-strategies/revenue-models\",\"description\":\"docs revenue models\",\"timestamp\":1706500711344},{\"id\":\"40bx3qnqwt5\",\"url\":\"https://yieldfarming-index.gitbook.io/yfx-docs/yfx-tokenomics/usdyfx-tokenomics\",\"description\":\"docs - Tokenomics\",\"timestamp\":1706500734094},{\"id\":\"sdy4ecoaaqk\",\"url\":\"https://paladinsec.co/projects/yfx/\",\"description\":\"paladinesec yfx\",\"timestamp\":1706500744170},{\"id\":\"owmjy8ynd7\",\"url\":\"https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/yieldfarming-index/\",\"description\":\"coinmarket cap YFX\",\"timestamp\":1706500753567}]"},{"id":"website","value":"https://yfxprotocol.xyz"},{"id":"contract_url","value":"https://arbiscan.io/address/0x00fAC1CCd84e1549BA5EFb928ac0644a2546034b"},{"id":"twitter_profile","value":"https://twitter.com/YieldfarmingI"},{"id":"discord_profile","value":"https://discord.gg/yBayxTrP"},{"id":"coinmarketcap_url","value":"https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/yieldfarming-index/"},{"id":"coingecko_profile","value":"https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/yieldfarming-index"},{"id":"previous_cid","value":"QmdqVmngpBkjvcaaHDYUtLf1fFjYv9GdVN5y2UoamrXyiJ"}],"user":{"id":"0x6753061a4cffbc0A617e57E956A298D88702a94B"},"author":{"id":"0xf32ECD5c8f5633212f1a25A3931aDDc0CEc42938","profile":null},"media":[{"name":"1*LAsukHbfH2GrtMqlNSi0Vg.png","id":"QmTJ5P1zB8E7vwTfT5J5G8Z7cUFxTMRVk6DG1UUp4Amijf","size":"0.44","type":"GALLERY","source":"IPFS_IMG"}],"views":33,"events":[],"ipfs":"QmdqVmngpBkjvcaaHDYUtLf1fFjYv9GdVN5y2UoamrXyiJ","transactionHash":"0x95487e2e2e451347f053b5f28bf3962ad3f5a2e8cb31a02dd139509fd9951fa5","created":"2024-01-29T04:06:57.514Z","updated":"2024-02-19T16:42:09.438Z","images":[{"id":"QmaQsfoEHeL6tF7HdzmsBoaFfseXjreeQJhs4bKfX9SwN1","type":"image/jpeg, image/png"}],"linkedWikis":null}
