Huge congrats to the @InverseFinance team! Can’t wait to help them eliminate the rest.

Before and after

Frustrated that Aave's @pendle_fi PT sUSDe Sept is at its supply cap? And when it's increased, it gets filled too fast? @InverseFinance has a better solution that can be used right this minute. Fixed rate borrowing against the Sept @ethena_labs PT. Fixed yield and fixed borrowing = fixed profit

Never give up

Borrowers are now burning one hundred million DBR tokens (worth $9M) per year to borrow on FiRM

Alpha Homora walked so Inverse could run

Looped fixed yields are quite good on @InverseFinance This is the cheat code temple used to become the #1 points holder for resolv and temple despite not being the highest capital at risk The LP farms typically print the highest multiplier on points + are extremely high yield to loop Aave and other venues don’t offer borrowing against LP, but inverse does Note: dcf cap holds temple and inv

Not only is it the only place to get a fixed rate loan for any custom duration, it’s also the only place to get a fixed rate for your future loans before you even borrow. There is no second best. Literally there are no competitors who offer any similar terms. Maybe they’ll show up when we’re past $1B loans but good luck catching up Borrowers who are still missing out on the FiRM experience, here’s your chance

Back then, we owed $12M in DOLA bad debt, went from over $100M to no TVL, no users, no revenue, no hope. So we did the only thing we knew how to do: Built a better product from scratch. Created the most sophisticated risk mgmt tools in DeFi such as daily borrow limits and pessimistic price oracle among others. Grew loans borrower by borrower, collateral by collateral, feature after feature, over 3 years of slow consistent growth while surviving multiple bank runs due to the bad debt. Today, the numbers speak for themselves: Almost $100M actively borrowed, collateralized by nearly $150M TVL, generating $9M/year in revenue. All All-Time-Highs. By end of week, governance is likely to approve and execute the DOLA bad debt elimination proposal, finally releasing us from this burden. Post-bad debt, we will continue to build: - Better risk management tools. We will be the most prepared for the worst to happen. Junior tranche, bad debt socialization, better liquidations. - Better stablecoins. Monolith will set a new standard for stablecoins: immutable, permissionless, un-censorable and unstoppable. It will also create a more resilient class of collaterals that can replace DOLA’s centralized backing such as USDC, USDe, etc. - Better collateral types. Monolith is our first move in this direction. Expect new DeFi products built primarily to be used as crypto collateral on FiRM. We will also use FiRM and DOLA to finance the growth of these products vs existing incumbents in their markets. - DBR derivatives. New financial products for advanced DBR users/speculators/borrowers and to grow the public market capital raise arsenal of the DAO. E.g. a long-term fixed income product for savers, discounted DBR debt instruments for long-term borrowers, etc. If DeFi ends up replacing TradFi, we are building Decentralized JP Morgan of the new world; the largest, oldest and most prestigious decentralized lender. To do that, we aim to build the best most diverse collection of lending products, create the best risk mgmt tools, serve the best clients (quality over quantity) and hire the best talent. It will require a lot of trial and error, a lot of capital, a lot of talent and most importantly a lot of patience. But time is in our favor. In September, Inverse DAO will be 5 years old. This is already 5 years of reputation that cannot be bought with money. We will continue to accumulate this reputation year after year and cycle after cycle, building, growing and serving.
