Pendle Investors
Cryptocurrency Pendle (PENDLE)
Pendle is a non-secure yield trading protocol that allows anyone to make targeted bets on fluctuations in market returns. The income generating assets are divided into the main token (PT) and the yield token (YT), allowing users to earn fixed or flexible returns on AMM Pendle v2.
- PT entitles you to the principal portion of the underlying revenue-generating token and can be redeemed upon redemption. PT can be traded at any time, even before maturity.
- PT will always trade at a discount to the underlying asset due to the extracted yield component. In TradFi, it can be thought of as a "zero coupon bond" and the "fixed return" is represented by a guaranteed increase in price to full value at maturity.
- YT entitles you to the income generated by the underlying token yielding income, and the income generated can be queried at any time from the Pendle dashboard. YT can be sold at any time, even before maturity.
- Buying YT can be thought of as "coupon payments" in TradFi, and it allows users to buy the yield of an asset and make a profit when the yield received is higher than the cost , paid to purchase YT.
Yield is a core component of DeFi, and LSD-Fi is the fastest growing market segment since the launch of ETH staking. Pendle aims to become the leading DeFi marketplace for yield management and also aims to increase the liquidity of yield-producing asset protocols.
Pendle Features
-
One of the early pioneers of revenue trading: V1 mainnet launches June 2021 with over 350 million trading volume dollars.
-
Version 2 Upgrade: V2 Main Network launched in Q4 2022 with newly updated AMM V2 model delivering up to 200x faster capital efficiency compared to version 1. As of June 2023, Pendle v2 has exceeded $100 million in TVL and $100 million in total trading volume.
-
Capital Efficient AMM: The AMM Pendle design allows PT and YT swaps to be conducted through a single liquidity pool by implementing pseudo-AMM with flash swaps. Users can earn lower slippage fees with higher liquidity, while liquidity providers earn fees on both PT and YT swaps, doubling their returns.
-
Minimum Time Loss (IL): Pendle v2's design ensures that IL is negligible as Pendle's AMM takes into account the natural rise in PT price, shifting the AMM curve to push the PT price towards its base value over time.
