Curve founder Michael Egorov is currently borrowing $95.7M in stablecoins (mostly crvUSD) against $141M in CRV, across 5 accounts on 5 protocols.
Based on current rates, Egorov is paying $60M annualized in order to keep his positions open on Llamalend.
This is because there is almost no remaining crvUSD available for borrowing against CRV on Llamalend. 3 of Egorov’s accounts already make up over 90% of the borrowed crvUSD on the protocol.
The CRV price has decreased by 26% in 24 hours.
