Hello there and gm frens!! We’re here today to talk about one of our most popular and simple, yet useful tests that one can write, a price peg test. If you missed our last writeup about Olympus, feel free to find it here!

This post is intended to be a technical overview of the Ribbon Ante Tests and their mechanics.

This article is meant to give a technical overview of the Ante v0.5 codebase for developers — how it works, why we decided to do things the way we did, and the implications of those decisions (an internal audit of sorts). If that sounds interesting to you, then read on ~fren~.

This continues a multi-part series walking through the Ante v0.5 protocol design as well as basic secure smart contract development practices. Check out Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3.

This code tour is intended to give technical or tech-adjacent people (who may be newer to Solidity or to DeFi) a casual walkthrough of the Ribbon V2 codebase so they can improve their familiarity with and understanding of Ribbon V2, with a focus on the core Solidity contracts. We’ve also added some thoughts on specific design choices and object interactions.

Hello Pendlefrens and Anteans! As you may have heard, as of today Pendle has deployed and staked 6 different Ante Tests for the Pendle protocol. We’re all excited about our partnership and what it means for the future of decentralized trust in Web3. For those who may be wondering how the Pendle Ante Tests work, this post is intended to be a quick overview of the tests and their mechanics.

gm frens! Welcome back to the Ante Test Series (check out our last writeup on Alchemix here). This week’s focus is everyone’s favorite Greco-mythical rebasing token, Olympus (OHM).

Ante allows users to create incentivized on-chain guarantees of smart contract state that are programmatically settled. Users can either stake or challenge the pool, where payment on each side is asymmetrically determined based on the result of the corresponding Ante Test. Stakers benefit from the test continuing to pass by receiving a portion of challenger capital through a mechanism we call “decay”, while challengers receive a portion of staker capital upon test failure.
