Step 5: Fees optimisation

At this stage, you will need to choose how you want to process your deposit:

1️⃣ Instant Deposit – Your deposit will be placed immediately, but you will pay the full Ethereum network fee at the current rate. 2️⃣ Smart Deposit (within 24 hours) – To optimize costs, we have developed a solution that reduces blockchain fees by 95%. Your deposit will be placed within 24 hours when network fees are at their lowest.

Choose your preferred deposit method: Fastest or Balanced based on fee and processing time preferences.

💡 Understanding Network Fees

• Blockchain fees are not based on your deposit amount but rather on Ethereum network congestion at the time of the transaction.

• The liquidity provisioning strategy consists of more than 20 steps, making manual execution costly and complex. If done independently, fees could reach $200 or more during high congestion periods. With our solution and option Smart Deposit, we automate the process and cover 95% of the total network fee for you.

Note: If you're depositing a small amount, Instant Deposit may not be cost-effective during peak congestion times when network fees can exceed $100.

Once you've chosen the preferred option, click "Select" to proceed to the final confirmation screen.

Step 6: Deposit confirmation

On the final screen, you will see all the details of your deposit:

• Deposit amount

• Current interest rate

• Ethereum network fee

• Slippage-adjusted result

If everything looks correct, click “Confirm” and additionally approve the transaction in your wallet.

No risk of accidental deposits! You cannot mistakenly deposit your funds—every action requires double confirmation in your wallet. Even though your wallet is connected to the app, DSF does not have access to your funds. This ensures your security.

Final review before deposit: check the amount, interest rate, fees, and expected slippage result, then click 'Place deposit' to proceed.

💡 What is slippage-adjusted result?

When withdrawing funds, the final amount may slightly differ due to exchange rate fluctuations or the slippage effect.

Let’s break it down with an example: If a user deposits 4,000 USDT, our smart contract will automatically convert it into the required assets to be placed in a liquidity pool as required on Curve, for instance:

• USDC → 997.00

• DAI → 1000.04

• MIM → 1014.07

• USDT → 1000

These are approximate values because Curve’s algorithm dynamically determines the proportions at the time of exchange. Additionally, this does not account for Curve’s trading fee.

Now, when a user withdraws their assets and converts them back to USDT, the exchange rates might have changed:

• USDT → 1.001

• DAI → 0.9998

• USDC → 1.00

• MIM → 0.97435

Since USDT is now slightly more expensive than $1 and DAI is slightly cheaper, their exchange rate multiplies, leading to an adjusted conversion rate:

• DAI → USDT = 1.0012

• USDC → USDT = 1.001

• MIM → USDT = 1.02665

Now, converting the withdrawn amounts back into USDT, we get:

• DAI 1000.04 → 998.84 USDT

• USDC 997 → 996 USDT

• MIM 1014.07 → 987.74 USDT

• USDT → 1000 USDT

Total: 3982.58 USDT instead of 4,000 USDT. Loss due to slippage: -17.42 USDT.

However, slippage can work in your favor as well—in some cases, you may receive more than you initially deposited.
