Using the DAI savings rate - Assignment

ah, i was really excited about this, and it supposedly worked for KOVAN, but when i went back to the dashboard it showed zero balance of kovaneth… so i tried again and got the same result despite both times receiving a confirmation that it had worked…
kept trying later because even though it said 0 there, my metamask wallet was fuller and fuller… (i didn’t try brave wallet with the kovan eth setup)

when i went (on both Brave and Opera) to oasis.app/conect to connect my metamask wallet, i got “Browser etherum provider and network URL param do not match!” … because i forgot to use the very specific link! -> https://oasis.app/borrow?network=kovan

then when i reloaded i noticed an oasis app installer, which i used and realized it was accessing my computer directly, so i quickly aborted… i did not catch this warning in the course, although i realize it’s an old course, so i’ll check the new one and maybe become more familiar with things…

anyway finally got around to opening a vault (no longer CDP) and as posted by @RUsokovich before me, the gas fees are insane, and kovan faucet will not let you get that much out per day, so this project would take like 10 days to complete… obviously not worth waiting.

but instructive nonetheless!

That means that your metamask wallet selected network is incorrect, change the network and reload the oasis app.

Indeed you must use the link we provided, be very careful with other links, since they might be scam or worse…

https://oasis.app/borrow?network=kovan

You do not need to install anything locally in your pc, all dapps (most of them) work only has a website, and you interact with th website through a browser (brave, chrome…).

Once you opened a vault, the interface from, the oasis dapp looks like this (this is mine)

Hope it helps :nerd_face:

i think the gas fees are where it’s all going wrong; i have to specify fees (as much lower than their anticipated max because kovan does not drip enough to allow for such high fees), then when trying to put the transaction through, it gets no confirmations… as expected maybe because my gas fee limits are so low…

thanks for your follow-up! i’ll definitely try it again after getting more from kovan

ok so i finally got enough to pay the gas fees, and now i’m earning interest at much higher than the rate for which i borrowed (because of the kovan eth arbitrage opportunity haha)
