Focused on building the fixed income layer for digital assets, Treehouse introduces innovative fixed income products and primitives. Our primary offerings are:\n\ntAssets (Liquid Staking Tokens 2.0): These tokens aim to unify fragmented on-chain interest rate markets for Proof of Stake (PoS) chains. tAssets borrowing native assets (e.g ETH) against their liquid staking token (e.g wstETH), amplifying potential yields by increasing the overall staked position beyond just the native network rewards. While our first iteration of tAssets is tETH, which addresses fragmentation in Ethereum’s interest rate market, we intend to eventually have other iterations of tAssets such as tSOL and tAVAX. Since launching in September 2024, Treehouse has reached a Total Value Locked (TVL) of 160M USD and is actively expanding to other L2s.\n\nDecentralized Offered Rates (DOR) Mechanism: DOR is a consensus-based benchmark system for setting reference rates in the fixed income space. It mirrors the role of benchmarks like LIBOR (London InterBank Offered Rate) and SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate) in traditional finance, but with a key difference: DOR is fully transparent and objective. Traditional rates were prone to manipulation, as they relied on subjective inputs from a small panel of banks. DOR, however, leverages decentralized mechanisms to ensure accuracy and transparency in rate-setting.\n\nThe DOR process involves multiple steps and stakeholders:\n- Operators set the rate parameters and maintain system integrity.\n- Panelists provide interest rate forecasts based on their market insights.\n- Delegators rely on their share of the Operator’s reward pool and querying fees from Referencers for financial incentives.\n- Referencers depend on Panelists to provide accurate rate predictions, ensuring reliable data for research and pricing of financial products.", "logoImgData": {}, "projectTwitter": "treehousefi"}
