Abstract

The skewScale determines the funding rate for a given level of skew, as per the function maxFunding*skew/skewScale, the lower the skewScale the higher the funding rate.

Motivation

The main motivation is the state of crypto markets, where short positions undertaken by traders should compensate snx stakers for the risk underwriting.
