What is the Reliability Score for USDS?

The Reliability Score is 9.4/10. This is calculated based on the 30-day standard deviation of the APY, where a higher score indicates a more stable and predictable return.

What does a high Standard Deviation imply for ?

A high standard deviation (currently ±0.28%) suggests that the yield fluctuates significantly. While this can offer high upside, it also increases the risk of returns dropping below expected levels.

Executive Summary

Based on historical data, USDS on Aave V3 demonstrates exceptional steady historical output. It is positioned as a strong candidate for farmers seeking passive income.

Deep Dive Analytics

Analysing the 30-day historical data reveals a yield spread of 0.63%, ranging from a low of 0.43% to a high of 1.06%. This metric is essential for assessing liquidity risks; a tighter spread generally indicates robust protocol health.

Currently, the pool is underperforming its 30-day moving average by 0.18%. For yield farmers, this deviation provides context on market saturation or temporary liquidity incentives.

From an infrastructural perspective, the pool is As this strategy is deployed on Ethereum, transaction fees must be factored into the net yield. A lower frequency compounding schedule is advisable to ensure gas costs do not outweigh the APY. The calculated Efficiency Ratio is 2.34, indicating the return generated per unit of risk.

Interpreting the Stability Metrics

Yield stability is often overlooked in favour of headline rates. However, a pool with huge fluctuations (High Standard Deviation) can result in lower actualised returns than a stable, lower-rate pool due to compounding inefficiencies. Our Efficiency Ratio of 2.34 quantifies this relationship.

Decoding the Score

The 0-10 Reliability Score acts as a quick-reference gauge. A score above 8 signifies that has maintained steady emissions. A score below 5 warns that the APY is erratic, requiring active daily management.
