                                        Polynomial Layer3 Quest: Last 48 Hours to Earn High APR, OP Tokens, and Multipliers with cbBTC, weETH, wstETH, SolvBTC, or ETH Deposits
                                    
                                     
                            According to Polynomial (@PolynomialFi), traders have only two days left to participate in the Polynomial Layer3 quest, which allows users to deposit assets such as cbBTC, weETH, wstETH, SolvBTC, or ETH and earn high APR, OP tokens, and multipliers with a single deposit. This limited-time opportunity is designed to maximize DeFi yield strategies and incentivize liquidity on the Optimism Layer 2 network. The potential for high returns and extra token rewards could drive short-term capital inflows into these assets, impacting their liquidity and trading volumes on both centralized and decentralized exchanges (source: @PolynomialFi, June 6, 2025).  |

This integration enhances trading flexibility on Polynomial and introduces new yield opportunities for DeFi market participants, potentially increasing cbBTC adoption and liquidity within the broader crypto market (source: Twitter @PolynomialFi, June 4, 2025).  |

                            According to Lookonchain, a significant whale has initiated a short position on the ETH/BTC trading pair by withdrawing 2,770 $cbBTC (valued at $243 million) from Coinbase, depositing 2,219 $cbBTC (valued at $194.6 million) to Aave, and borrowing 45,441 $ETH (valued at $99 million). This strategy suggests a bearish outlook on Ethereum relative to Bitcoin, as the whale is leveraging borrowed ETH against their Bitcoin collateral.
