How Much Are Ethereum Whales Actually Making on DeFi?

Too Long; Didn't Read

Most are using yearn.finance, a set of automated money robots that do the work for them. All they have to do is deposit their money into a ‘vault’, and wait while these smart contracts move the assets between liquidity pools to generate the highest interest. The largest whale has $40.6M in the yCRV vault, generating $500K in returns in the past 3 weeks. This represents a simple return of 2.17%, annualized at 40.46%.
