Summary
This IIP aims to update the IDLE incentives distribution of the Liquidity Mining program. The proposal also focuses on updating the USDC and USDT Senior Best Yield’s underlying markets by adding Clearpool’s Portofino (USDC) and Fasanara (USDT) Yield Tranches.
Rationale
After the recent exploit on Euler, Leagues have suggested removing the Euler Yield Tranches from the basket of yield source of Best Yield strategies as a precautionary measure before a new audit is completed.
The current yield source of the Best Yield strategies would then be:
Strategy
Token
Underlying markets
Senior BY
DAI
Aave, Compound, Euler
Junior BY
DAI
Euler , Morpho
These proposals aim to add new Clearpool Yield Tranches to the Senior Best Yield vaults on USDC and USDT:
Clearpool USDC (Portofino) YTs , with specs available on GitHub here
Clearpool USDT (Fasanara) YTs , with specs available on GitHub here
Portofino details
Portofino technologies is a high-frequency trading market maker that uses borrowed funds as trading capital, providing superior returns thanks to its advanced machine learning & stochastic control techniques.

At the time of writing, the Portofino pool provides 10.99% APR with a 64% utilization rate (source ).
Risk rating
Following the new version of the risk rating framework , the Clearpool (Portofino) Yield Tranches can be considered as a valid market to become a new yield source of the Best Yield strategies.
In order to trigger any BY deployment, the Yield Tranches will need to have at least a 30% coverage on Senior funds coming from the Junior counterparty.
Fasanara details
Fasanara Digital is a quantitative investment fund applying a scientific approach to investing in cryptoassets with the aim to achieve exceptional risk-adjusted returns for its investors.
Fasanara Digital was started in 2019 as part of Fasanara Capital , a 200 people London-based hedge fund founded in 2011 that specializes in alternative credit and fintech strategies. Overall, Fasanara Capital manages more than $4 billion across different funds.

Risk rating
Following the new version of the risk rating framework , the Clearpool (Fasanara) Yield Tranches can be considered as a valid market to become a new yield source of the Best Yield strategies.
In order to trigger any BY deployment, the Yield Tranches will need to have at least a 24% coverage on Senior funds coming from the Junior counterparty.
The expected budget for M2-2023 is $163,183 in stablecoin and 86,942.43 IDLE (with a 20-day rolling price at the time of writing).
Current Treasury League multisig stablecoin holdings currently stand at $68,223 so if the Temperature Check for IDLE tokenholders is positive, $94,960 will be transferred from the Idle DAO Fee Treasury via the next IIP. No need to transfer any IDLE at the current time.
Specifications
The code for the IIP-35 can be found on GitHub here and consists of eleven actions.
