Purchase a LOBI Bond

Bonds allow users to buy LOBI from the protocol at a discount by trading it with assets (CRV, FXS) or liquidity (LP tokens). The former is called reserve bonds and the latter liquidity bonds. 
Bonds take roughly 15 epochs to vest (or approximatly 5 days), and LOBI tokens are vested linearly to the user over that period. Liquidity bonds help the protocol to accumulate and lock liquidity, while reserve bonds allow the protocol to grow its treasury, and thus its RFV faster.
At the moment Lobis offers different types of assets that can be used to mint LOBI on the website:
CRV 
FXS 
LOBI-OHM LP

Enter the amount of assets you want to use for minting LOBI
4. If this is your first bond purchase, you need to approve the bond contract to spend your token first. Then, you need to sign another transaction to actually purchase the bond by clicking the "Mint" button:
5. Once the bond transaction is confirmed, you have successfully purchased a bond! Now the tokens will be linearly vested with a 5 days time horizon
Notes:
The "Approve" transaction is only needed when minting for the first time; subsequent minting only requires you to perform the "mint" transaction.

MINT Price is the price of LOBI you get from minting. You can calculate the mint price using the following formulae:
- LP Mint: (Value of your LP token / LOBI you'll get from minting)
- CRV/FXS Mint: (Value of your CRV/FXS token / LOBI you'll get from minting)

Your Balance is your balance of assets/ LP tokens or assets used to mint. 
You Will Get tells you how many LOBI tokens you will get from minting.

Debt Ratio measures the total amount of LOBI created from mints that have yet to be paid out by the protocol. The debt ratio is calculated differently for LP mints and CRV/FXS mints:
- LP Mint: (LOBI created from unredeemed mints / LOBI total supply)
- CRV/FXS Mint: (LOBI created from unredeemed mints / LOBI circulating supply)
