- The share of the total warranty protocol increased 52% in four months.
- Fixed income portfolios are the new performance meta for DEFI.
Pendle becomes a major attraction in DEFI in the midst of frantic yield derivatives exchanging among cryptographic whales; Investors with millions of cryptocurrencies.
TN LEE, co-founder of the DEFI yield derivative protocol, said its value of 2.5 billion dollars of main tokens, or PTS, now represents 5% of all guarantees in DEFI, growth of 52% in the last four months.
“The PTs have obtained a lot of traction of whales because it allows large farmers to lock decent yields,” said Togbe, a prominent pseudonym Defi commentator, said DL News.
Major recovery
The data from DEFILLAMA ONCHAIN showing pendle has crossed $ 5 billion in investor assets, a major recovery in the crisis less than $ 2 billion in October.
Marcin Kazmierczak, co-founder of Redstone, a blockchain data company, said DL News This institutional interest in protocols as a pendle has increased “because they need predictable yields for treasure management”.
Pendle allows users to exchange a future return rather than simply hold a yield generator token like the marked ether and while waiting for a passive income.
Traders can deposit tokens in Pendle, and the protocol divides user deposits into two tokens: PT and a yield token, or YT.
The PT represents the deposit of the user, while the YT represents the future interest which can be won on the deposit. The two tokens can be exchanged separately.
Yield
Pendle attracted DEFI yield hunters because it allows them to decide the yield into separate and negotiable instruments.
By separating the principal of future interests via PTS and YTS, users can speculate on interest rates, the risk of coverage or the unloading of yields.
This has created a fixed income market where users build yield curves from protocols like Defi lender Aave and the giant of the Lido giant.
“ A whale game ”
Although it is above all a whale game, Togbe said that small farmers with significant risk appetites are still participating.
“As the market becomes more effective, the YT side of trade will be better for small farmers,” said Togbe.
Togbe said they expected small players to use better yields if PT collateral develops in deffi.
Loop
Growth will allow them to use capital slices that previously provided lower yields by loop – a strategy that uses recursive loans to amplify the yield.
“Right now, they are more attractive as two -digit yields, but if you can get high yields per loop, like the way it is available on Aave with USDCE, then even lower yield pts can turn into high -efficiency strategies,” said Togbe.
Major risks
Admittedly, Kazmierczak warned that growth is attached with risks such as liquidity discrepancies and cascading failures, in particular if market constraints cause a rapidly taking place.
If a main protocol The prices or incorporation of protocol have expired, due to the oracle dysfunction, it could wave in the system, warned Kazmierczak.
An oracle is a feature that provides information to intelligent contracts from out -of -chain sources.
In July, Rho Markets underwent a so-called Oracle feat where the attacker manipulated the Oracle to empty $ 7.5 million in the Defi protocol.
