SHADOWLink is the world's first Inversely Pegged Synthetic Asset, an experiment into shorting on Decentralized Exchanges using elastic properties. The goal at SHADOW is to provide the community with a new way to hedge against Chainlink using the idea of inverse pegging.

Sorry for not mentioning earlier, release is slated for this week.

Excerpts from the whitepaper:

>Elastic supply tokens pegged directly to various assets have paved a new avenue for synthetic commodities. While some projects, such as AMPL, have demonstrated exceptional success with their countercyclical economic policies. DeFi protocols such as SBTC, xETH, SYFI, and many others, have ultimately failed to prove their viability in the market — leaving early enthusiasts, presalers, and HODLers with a bad taste in their mouths.

>The team of developers at SHADOW have been reinventing how these tokens work by considering a key factor other projects have failed to address — utility. While some of these projects have succeeded in generating much attention through guerilla marketing, their ultimate failures can be attributed to a lack of inherent value. Over the course of the past few months, we’ve learned that pegging a token to an existing asset does not instantaneously generate equivalent value. The argument at SHADOW is that in order for a pegged synthetic asset to create and maintain value, it must provide some utility to its community and holders.

>The goal at SHADOW is to provide the community with a new way to hedge against Chainlink using the idea of inverse pegging. The natural question to ask, is what does this even mean? Here’s how the team of developers at SHADOW explain inverse pegging:

>Let’s say that we want to create a certain relationship between SHADOW and LINK. We can start by representing the former using the variables y and x, respectively. Since the inherent value of either is subject to change, and we know that the variable y depends on the variable x, we can model this scenario using a simple inverse function. (pic rel)

>>24046467
>Y(x) represents an exponential decay function, where the independent variable (x-axis) is represented by the LINK USD price. The dependent variable (y-axis) is the price point of the inverse peg. This is where SHADOW will ultimately peg to. (pic rel)

>Ultimately, the protocol in the contracts we deploy will be much more intricate than the function you see above. It has a plethora of other factors, such as dampening functions to protect against drastic market and LINK price fluctuations. The inverse peg is one of SHADOW’s unique takes on rebase coins, which has not yet been explored in other DeFi protocols. Many blockchain developers are pouring research into developing ways to short ERC-20 tokens on decentralized exchanges. The main exchange for SHADOW, Uniswap, sees around 300 million USD in volume daily. This highlights the need for a form of option trading on Uniswap — this is where SHADOW comes in. The question that stands — can we use the inverse peg to create a method by which a community of users can hedge the direction of LINK?

let me get this straight
lets say you hold LINK at $13
if you think LINK is going to dump, or begins to dump, you move your LINK into SHADOW which is inverse pegged to the price, raising the value of what you just moved into
once SHADOW stops pumping, or rather when LINK stops dumping and begins to reverse, you sell all your SHADOW and move back into LINK, and rinse and repeat ad infinum?
what's the catch here? this seems like something that everyone, or at least a sizeable majority, of LINK holders need to be doing for this to actually work. I doubt a project could get everyone on board to do this.

>> No.24047409

>>24047212
The price being inversely pegged to links will keep the price moving no matter what. Rebase expands and contracts the supply as well. You've got the idea down right though, especially the ad infinum part.
