About Minterest
Minterest is a decentralised lending protocol built on Ethereum with a unique economic model. Its unique design attracts and rewards long-term liquidity and holders with Minterest, distributing value captured by the protocol to participants and $MINTY token holders who stake $MINTY and actively participate in its governance.
Minterest improves on current DeFi lending protocols.
- Using auto-liquidations, Minterest captures 100% of protocol fee value, more than any other, while minimising impacts on borrowers.
- Protocol value is transferred via buyback mechanisms to users as Governance Rewards, incentivising users to stake $MINTY and participate. Longer-term participation earns increased voting weight, leading to an increased proportion of rewards.
- The protocol accumulates $MINTY Governance Rewards in its Strategic Reserve, causing long-term on-market scarcity. This supports the demand for $MINTY, which is instrumental in supporting the long-term value of emission rewards.
- Increasing the value of emission rewards supports the attraction of further TVL, leading to greater opportunities for protocol to capture fee value which in turn increases buyback value.
