I am new to yield farming although not to crypto. I have deposited and staked some sUSD and renBTC to curve and I am earning CRV and SNX. But that CRV I am earning is not yCRV, I don’t think. So where do yCRV come from? I don’t see a way to swap into yCRV on Uniswap, Balancer swap, etc.

I staked some DAI into the DAI yvault which gets me yDAI - when do I get that yDAI? And what is the best thing to do with it?

I have also used ren BTC to create uUSD which I then placed into the Balancer pool. What does everyone think about that opportunity? You earn REN, UMA and BAL.

So far I am not too enthused with yield farming and liquidity mining because the fees are crazy. But it’s only been a few days so I am going to give it a chance and I also like contributing to furthering of crypto and defi even if I don’t make much money. I am not using money I cannot afford to lose.

Its much cheaper in terms of gas to just buy yCRV straight from uniswap

[https://uniswap.info/token/0xdf5e0e81dff6faf3a7e52ba697820c5e32d806a8](https://uniswap.info/token/0xdf5e0e81dff6faf3a7e52ba697820c5e32d806a8)

Also, if you want to get into the yCRV vault– the cheapest way is to zap in your stablecoins or ETH using [zapper.fi](http://zapper.fi) or (even better for stablecoins) using [https://vaults.finance/](https://vaults.finance/).
