Build applications that empower lenders, borrowers, and traders with the most flexible decentralized finance protocol on Ethereum.
Whether you’re a lender or borrower, you stay in control of your keys. Never worry about opaque centralized exchanges getting hacked or stealing your funds. You can read our audit by ZK Labs here.
Make money with the assets you already hold in your wallet without giving up control of them. Interest rates on margin loans are often much higher than traditional loans while being far safer.
Traders on centralized exchanges pay higher interest rates to compensate lenders for the risk of the exchange getting hacked. Decentralized margin lending makes trading more affordable.
iTokens and pTokens are powerful financial primitives. iTokens are tokens that constantly increase in value from earning interest, while pTokens are tokens that represent short and leveraged positions. These iTokens and pTokens can be composed into novel financial products, used as collateral for loans, or listed on any exchanges to instantly enable margin lending and trading.
Fulcrum Specifications Torque SpecificationsTaking a long position involves a simple swapping of one asset for another. For example, you could swap DAI for ETH because you think ETH will go up in value faster than DAI.
Try 4x long on fulcrumTaking a short position is more complicated. A short position is betting that something will go down over time. Short positions require escrow, leverage, and margin calls.
Try 4x short on fulcrumLeveraged positions use the same mechanics as short positions, but with leveraged positions you’re able to borrow more than you have. For example, you could go 100x long on Ethereum.
