Pendle fixed yield, read to the cent

Fixed yield on Pendle, with the parts nobody prints

Vantias reads every live Pendle market across 8 chains, keeps its own dated history of them, and says what a fixed-yield buyer would actually receive at a size they choose -- after the cost of getting in, after the cost of getting out, and with the risk that is being taken for it named rather than scored out of ten.

Read-only: it quotes and never signs Not investment advice

It also publishes what it has NOT checked. 8 of its 31 published figures have never been graded, and the service names which ones. That sentence does not appear on any competing screen, because nobody volunteers it.

What a fixed yield here actually is

One idea, and the rest of this page rests on it. A Principal Token is bought below what it redeems for and pays nothing along the way; the gap between the two, spread over the days remaining, is the rate. Nothing accrues and nothing compounds -- the yield is already in the price you paid.

redeems at par you pay the fixed yield today maturity
A diagram of the mechanism, not a reading: it carries no figures on purpose. The real discount, the days remaining and the rate they imply are computed per market and shown on the board. What a curve like this never shows is where most of the work goes -- the cost of getting in, the cost of getting out, and whether the thing on the right still redeems at all.

How a number reaches the screen

Six steps, in the order they run. Two of them end in a claim rather than a reading, and the service says which two.

  1. 1
    What comes in

    Three sources, and the browser is none of them: Pendle's index for the market list and its published rates, each chain's own contracts for the wrapper and who may change it, and Pendle's router for a quote at a real size. Every reading is stored with the moment it was taken.

  2. 2
    The fixed side

    A PT is a bond. The rate is the discount over the days remaining, recomputed here rather than copied -- and a market whose two published figures disagree is rejected rather than shown with a number nobody can defend.

  3. 3
    The floating side -- the guess the ranking rests on

    The only guess. Today's reported rate on a leash to the 30-day median, chosen on a backtest of the stored history. Where an asset reports a rate the market will not pay for, every figure built on it is withheld and says so.

  4. 4
    What it costs to get in, and out

    Every yield is net at a size you choose. Entry is a router quote at that size; the exit is a second quote at the size you would actually hold, and a market the router refuses costs the position points rather than being scored as though leaving were free.

  5. 5
    The risk band

    Six layers, each scored on its own evidence. The band is the worst of them, never the average, and the card names which layer set it. There is deliberately no single score out of a hundred.

  6. 6
    What is kept, and what is rejected

    A refused market is not deleted -- it stays in the list carrying the rule that refused it, so it can be sorted beside the rest and argued with.

What it says that others do not

Three habits, each of which costs the service something and is kept anyway.

  • 4 graded against outcomes
  • 6 waiting for a date
  • 2 never checked

Is it used with real money

The fairest question a stranger can ask. The answer is in bands rather than figures -- the scale is what a judgement should turn on, and a public page printing a book to the dollar would be publishing a wallet's size to anyone who asked.
