After choosing a crypto network and finding opportunities that pass the initial screening, you need to determine which opportunities are worth screening further. Not everyone may pick the same pairs in the pool to dig deeper into. Let others do what they want. Months in the future, I may do it differently. Now, this is how I try and figure it out.

In the above list, the following are over ONE million:

1. ETH/USDT – 358.63%
2. USDT/WBNB – 202.93%
3. SOL/WBNB – 191.35%
4. USDT/WBNB – 175.25%
5. USDT/WBNB – 136.45%

A few factors that impact the pairs I will choose:

• Pairs 2, 4 & 5 are the same pairs but with some different variable
• Pair 4 has a similar ratio of TVL/24h-Volume. Since 5 has a lower APR, I chose not to research 5 one further.
• XRP/USDT is a similar ratio to 5. I want the TVL to be higher. Even if it doesn’t come out the winner, I am learning more about other pairs I will likely have future encounters with.
• If I had more pairs, I would introduce additional justifications for the opportunities chosen. This is a place where I trust experience (both good and bad) will flavor the choices I make going forward..

My choices:

I attempt to have justifications for “trading up” to a different pair. No opportunity is perfect. No pair is guaranteed. The more times I complete the research, the more efficient I will become. And, as I get exposed to different pairs, I will recognize the unlikelihood the actual APR of some pairs will match up to the APR when the screening is completed.
