UX
Deposit BTC → get ybBTC (your share).
Pick a lane:
🔹Unstaked: earn trading fees (BTC-denom).
🔹Staked (gauge): take YB emissions instead (you give up fees). You can vote-lock YB for governance + a fee slice.

Pick your Aave market
✅Core: borrow‑only (supply disabled). Interest accrues; revenue → Aave DAO, mostly on repay
✅Prime: supply + borrow; deposit APR/reserve earnings may apply; separate knobs from Core. (Availability is instance‑specific.)

GSM: near‑par swaps, guarded
GSM swaps GHO ↔ approved stables near $1
Guardrails: fees, exposure caps, and pair‑level freeze/unfreeze via oracle bands (if an external stable exits band, that pair pauses). Fees → Aave DAO
