DeFi Lending

Ondo Finance

Ondo Finance is a DeFi protocol based on Ethereum that allows users to earn interest by providing loans. Borrowers and lenders pool their funds in Ondo's asset vault and smart contracts execute the lending terms.

The initial asset vault has two types of positions: fixed yield and variable yield. The fixed yield vault seeks to provide stable returns, while the variable yield vault aims to maximize returns through leverage. The project was founded by former Goldman Sachs digital asset team member Nathan Allman and former Goldman Sachs Vice President of Technology Pinku Surana.

DeFi Derivatives

Kwenta

Kwenta is a derivatives trading platform built on the Synthetix protocol, providing a user-friendly interface that allows access to various assets on Ethereum, including forex, commodities, cryptocurrencies, and indices. Kwenta not only offers non-custodial on-chain trading but also provides high liquidity and zero slippage trading experience. In addition to the Ethereum mainnet, Kwenta is also live on the Optimism network.

Thales

Thales is an options platform on Ethereum founded by members of the Synthetix community, facilitating the trading of options tokens for traders and liquidity providers through a decentralized order book. In the third quarter of this year, Thales announced the issuance of the Thales DAO token THALES, with a total supply of 100 million tokens, of which 35% is airdropped to SNX stakers, 30% allocated to a growth fund, 20% for core contributors, and 15% for THALES staking rewards.

DeFi Asset Management Protocols

TokenSet

TokenSet is a decentralized asset management protocol currently supporting the Ethereum mainnet and the Polygon network. TokenSet abstracts a basket of tokens into a single token set infrastructure service that is implemented through smart contracts, fully collateralized, redeemable, and composable, with use cases including digital currency index funds, exchange-traded funds, and payment services containing multiple tokens.

DeFi Market Makers

Charm Finance

Charm Finance creates liquidity for decentralized options in a significantly different design approach using mechanisms that can more effectively generate liquidity. It applies simple yet profound mathematical models commonly seen in prediction markets to DeFi options products.

Cross-chain

Wormhole

Wormhole is a cross-chain interoperability protocol launched by Solana in October 2020, currently supporting asset transfers across Ethereum mainnet, Solana, and Binance Smart Chain (BSC), with plans to support more networks in the future. Notably, Wormhole also supports cross-chain transfer of NFTs.

Li.Finance

Li.Finance is a cross-chain bridge aggregator. While there are no issuance plans currently, it has fundraised on Gitcoin, allowing for appropriate donation participation and interaction.

XY Finance

XY Finance is also a cross-chain bridge aggregator with issuance plans. LPs will receive XY token rewards, and it has previously issued NFTs or may also airdrop certificates.

Orion Money

Orion Money aims to be a cross-chain stablecoin bank, providing the best place in the DeFi world for stablecoin storage, lending, and spending.

NFT

Foundation

Foundation is an invite-only encrypted art platform where, unlike Zora, artists need to successfully sell a piece on the platform to receive two invitation slots. This increases the difficulty of joining while strengthening the review mechanism, ensuring that only artists whose work is recognized by buyers can invite others.

From the operational model of Foundation, it places a strong emphasis on the community, having decentralized the artist invitation and review mechanism to the community. Therefore, it may issue governance tokens in the future to further decentralize power to the community.

Digital Eyes

Digital Eyes is the first open NFT marketplace on the Solana blockchain, established by creators for creators.

Solanart

Solanart is a mature NFT marketplace on Solana, offering quick and easy access to digital collectibles, enabling users to explore, buy, and sell NFTs from various collections and artists.

DAO

SputnikDAO

SputnikDAO is a DAO infrastructure on NEAR, providing new tools for decision-making, coordination, and on-chain representation for the NEAR ecosystem community. It helps users create on-chain funds in NEAR and participate in decentralized autonomous organizations.

Crypto Tools

Argent
