After some conversations with friends around $DIGG it seems like @BadgerDAO needs to do a better job explaining how we are tackling composability with $bDIGG.

1 of the most frequent criticisms of rebasing tokens is the lack of composability with DeFi protocols.

For those unfamiliar, DIGG is based off the AMPL code base. The most battle tested elastic cryptocurrency in the market.

Instead of being pegged to USD, DIGG is targeting the price of #Bitcoin

Due to the elastic nature of rebasing tokens, centralized parties (like exchanges) and DeFi protocols (like money markets) have some trouble integrating.

DeFi in particular thrives because of the composable lego pieces. Not having that is problematic.

The secret sauce Badger has are its vaults which currently hold over $600M in tokenized Bitcoin.

When you deposit in a vault today you get a “b” token back which represents your share of the vault.

We then ask you to stake that to quantify your multiplier.

Our attempt at making a rebasing asset more composable is by using the vault representation of your deposited DIGG aka $bDIGG which DOESNT REBASE.

At launch we will have a DIGG only vault where users can deposit to earn APY in the form of $BADGER & $DIGG.
