Users can now go to feedback.katana.so to give feedback on problems they encounter. Katana is an yield generator built on Solana, just like Ribbon. It now only has a SOL covered call product. The product's vault accepts SOL deposits and earns yield via an automated SOL covered call strategy. The strategy works by first depositing the underlying SOL on PsyOptions and minting out-of-the-money SOL calls in return. The vault then sells these call options on the corresponding Serum market, earning the option premium as initial yield. If the price of SOL is below the strike price at the time of expiry, the vault earns the full value of the options it sold and can repeat the strategy, compounding its SOL over time. Source
