One of my favorite DeFi educators, Dads DeFi Space, just wrote an article about Snuggle and MaxFi on his website! www.dadsdefispace.org/post/snuggle-fi-deep-dive-ha…

I've literally followed his website for years, so I consider this a huge honor. Many years ago he even wrote one of the most popular articles about the snuggle rebalancing technique and how to do it manually. This was long before Snuggle existed.

I'm in disbelief right now that we're getting this kind of attention from big names that I respect in the DeFi space.

He really knows his stuff about concentrated liquidity management, and this article is full of great insights. He's even running positions on Snuggle and documenting the journey!

If you aren't following ‪@DADSDefiSpace‬ on YouTube, X, and his website, go subscribe, follow, etc. He's one of the smartest guys out here and has been dropping gems for years.

You have to read this article!

Snuggle just hit $500k+ TVL! This makes us the #20 biggest Liquidity Manager in all of DeFi and Crypto according to DeFi Llama. We went from essentially $0 to over $500,000 in two months! THANK YOU!

This is the combined TVL (total value locked) of Snuggle.fi and MaxFi.Tech that both run on my Snuggle smart contracts that use my automated snuggle rebalancing technology for maximum capital efficiency.

Both have amazing, thriving communities on Discord with people sharing their winning strategies using Snuggle technology. Links to the Discords are on the Snuggle and MaxFi websites. Go join the Discord communities and see all the winning strategies!

I'm so grateful to all our users and supporters. Two years ago I never would have believed that I would invent a ground-breaking financial technology that completely revolutionizes concentrated liquidity management.

Hearing your stories about Snuggle changing your lives is one of the most rewarding things I have experienced. Many of you have shown me that you are making more money by providing liquidity on Snuggle and MaxFi than from your day jobs. That's incredible!

Thank you to everyone who believed in me and helped me get here. This is only the beginning. I am going to work hard to grow Snuggle into the biggest and best liquidity manager in the world.

We are well on our way to $1 million in TVL. All aboard! 🚀

Thank you,

📺 New AMA just dropped with Dao King ‪@Crypto_Circus‬.

We cover the Russian Doll Strategy — stacking tight, medium, and wide LP ranges on the same pair so you're always earning — and a blue-chip ADA/BTC pool on Aerodrome paying 256% APR at a 5% range.

Plus:
✅ Valves Security audit results (zero critical, zero high, zero medium)
✅ MaxFi TVL crossing $423K, doubling month-over-month
✅ How I'm scaling my $20K portfolio ($4K/month) toward $100K ($10K+/month)
✅ Agent Max tokenomics: 50/50 buyback & burn + auto-compound flywheel

Sat down with Dao King for a full AMA. No script, no filter. He asked everything.

How zero-swap rebalancing actually works. Why single-position architecture makes flash loan attacks impossible. The fee model. The double snuggle technique. My portfolio split. Real numbers.

$200-250/day between Snuggle and MaxFi. 15% fee on earnings only, you keep 85%.

This is the most in-depth technical breakdown I've done.

Getting Started With Liquidity Pools – MaxFi Tutorial (WETH/KellyClaude)

in this video I'm putting $1,000 into the Wrapped ETH / $KELLYCLAUDE liquidity pool on MaxFi, aiming for 2–4% daily returns—that's roughly $20–40 a day in fees while the AI agent hype is still strong. I break down my full strategy step by step:

Why $KELLYCLAUDE stands out right now (huge 24h volume over $700k, $1.2M+ TVL, AI revenue burns driving deflation)
Using MaxFi's zero-swap rebalancing (the tech I created) to cut out slippage, MEV, gas costs on rebalances, and minimize impermanent loss
My advanced setup: two single-sided deposits to sandwich the current price—one above and one below—for better coverage early on
Choosing a 20% wide range + 4-hour rebalance delay, with real DexScreener chart analysis to show why this filters out noise and keeps you earning
Single-sided vs. double-sided deposits explained, plus when/why to enter or exit these volatile memecoin pools
My overall approach: treat DGEN plays like this as high-risk feeders into safer BTC liquidity positions

I'll follow up with performance updates—actual APR trends, rebalance count, IL impact, fees collected—so you can see how it plays out over weeks.If you're into DeFi liquidity providing, concentrated strategies on Uniswap V3/Base, or just want to see a real memecoin LP play without getting rekt—this one's for you. High risk, high reward—only use money you can afford to lose.

I built MaxFi as the degen side of Snuggle.

Same smart contracts I wrote and deployed for ‪@SnuggleFi‬. Same zero-swap rebalancing — no fees, no slippage, no MEV on every rebalance. I own and control every contract across every protocol running Snuggle technology.

MaxFi adds what Snuggle doesn't list: meme coins, alt coins, high-volatility pairs earning 2,000%+ APR in real trading fees.

If you want BTC and ETH yield: snuggle.fi
If you want the degen side: maxfi.tech

$60 a day going into Bitcoin. Every single day.

I'm running a degen CLAWD/WETH pool on MaxFi — 5-7% daily in real trading fees. That's $55-60/day from my allocation.

Plan: run it for 20 days, make the stack back, then rotate every dollar into blue chip Bitcoin liquidity positions on Snuggle. That BTC bag earns 100-200% APR — another $150/day on autopilot.

People in the MaxFi Discord running this same pool at the same rate right now.

High risk. Meme coin pool. Size accordingly.

This stack of cash is what I earn every 20 days doing absolutely nothing.

$1,000 into CLAWD/WETH on MaxFi. Earning $55-60 a day in real trading fees — 5-7% daily.

Plan: make the deposit back in 20-30 days, then rotate every dollar into my Bitcoin bag on snuggle.fi. That BTC position earns another $150/day at 100-200% APR.

People in the MaxFi Discord are doing $600, $700, $800 per day on this same pool right now.

CLAWD volume is insane. Millions in daily liquidity and volume. Similar to what we saw with Farcoin last year. It's an actual money printer right now.

High risk. Meme coin pool. Size accordingly.

I used to manage LP positions manually. Every rebalance cost me swap fees, slippage, and I was always getting front-run.

Then I found out Snuggle does it for zero. No swap fees. No slippage. No MEV.

Every rebalance, 50% of what I earned compounds back into my position. The other 50% drops directly into my wallet. I check my wallet in the morning. I made money.

100-200% APR on Bitcoin and USDC. The S&P does ~10%.

I just dropped $1,100 into a WETH/CLAWD degen position on MaxFi.

It's earning $55-60 a day in trading fees. That's 5-7% daily.

My plan: let it pay for itself in 20 days, then rotate profits into blue chip Bitcoin positions on Snuggle that earn 100-200% APR.

The degen pool is the money printer. The BTC pool is the savings account.

People in the MaxFi Discord are doing $600-800/day on this same pool right now. CLAWD volume is absolutely insane.
