Your staked $ETH could earn you more than just staking rewards.
A liquid staking token represents $ETH that’s already earning yield. Where that token is accepted as option collateral, you can use it to sell an option and collect a premium too.
Staking rewards underneath. Option premiums on top, potentially providing a much larger yield!
You’re putting the same capital to work in two ways: securing Ethereum and backing an option someone else wants to buy.
This way you stack two sources of yield on top of each other. Your capital earns twice.
And the idea extends beyond staked ETH. Other supported yield-bearing tokens can become the foundation for option strategies too.
If you enjoy yieldmaxxing, Greek will be your home!
Looking forward to working with Renn
Renn is connecting credit and derivatives markets to build loans against crypto and tokenized stocks on @base.
Follow along as we build in Base Batches 004.
Honored to be a part of the team @brian_armstrong !

.@base Batches 004 is out, here's a summary if you don't have time to go through it:
🟦 Payments and Settlement
Saturday (@SaturdayBank)
Traditional crypto cards spend stables and the merchant gets fiat. Saturday reverses the settlement: the customer pays with a normal Visa or Mastercard, and the merchant receives USDC on Base.
Conta (@contavcbr)
Brazilian banks can debit salary on arrival to cover debt. Conta is a reais account on PIX where that money lands in a wallet only the user can move, so they decide what to pay and when.
🟦 Credit and Financing
Renn Finance (@RennFinance)
DeFi loans get liquidated when price moves. Renn is fixed-term borrowing against crypto or tokenized stocks, no liquidation before maturity. The borrower pays a fixed rate for that. If the collateral ends below the amount lent, the lender eats the gap.
BitRepo (@bitrepo_xyz)
BitRepo gives bitcoin a yield without selling it. It borrows stables against the BTC and lends that cash into short-term business credit, so the holder earns the spread. The company default risk stays with them.
🟦 Trading Markets
Tribeca (@Tribeca_xyz)
Tribeca is an onchain replacement for a stock exchange: a CLOB on Base for 24/7 trading of tokenized stocks, perps, and options.
Greek.fi (@GreekDotFi)
Most onchain options sit inside a closed venue. Greek turns options and the seller's collateral receipt into ERC-20s, so idle tokens can earn by selling calls, hedge with puts, or take leverage, and the locked collateral can be reused elsewhere.
🟦 Consumer Investing
Grow (@get_grow_app)
Local-currency investing account, not a dollar neobank. Deposit a supported currency 1:1, earn yield on that currency, and buy US stocks, ETFs, or crypto from the same account without converting to USD first.
🟦 Agents and AI commerce
Mercatus (@mercatus_ai)
Model APIs post a rate card, not a market price. Mercatus is an exchange for inference: pay per token now, or buy and sell next month's usage, so compute has a public price.
Flovia (@Flovia402)
Flovia is Google Analytics for people who sell APIs and MCPs, but for agent customers. It shows the path agents take inside Claude or Codex: discover, choose you or a competitor, call, pay, finish. Sellers normally never see that funnel. Flovia marks where agents drop off and what to change so the API gets picked and paid.
🟦 FX
LEDiG (@LEDiG_Tech)
Companies that get paid in stablecoins and pay suppliers in emerging-market currency have no onchain way to lock that FX. LEDiG is the hedging and liquidity layer for that flow, so the rate is fixed before the bill is due.
