What’s inside your vault?
When you look under the hood, most vaults start to look the same.
Introducing Lotus: a new credit engine
𑁍 lotuslabs.net/vaults
Vaults meet the moment because they make onchain yield investable at scale.
They turn complex onchain opportunity sets into products that can be diligenced, managed by a curator that is accountable, and held with confidence.
Q&A write-up + full interview below ✍🏼
Vaults are experiencing serious tailwinds that index tokens never did
enjoyed speaking with @RasterlyRock about why vaults are meeting the moment
more episodes of Inside the Vault coming 🔜
Vaults are the ETFs of the crypto world 🌏
They package DeFi’s growing opportunity set into a single product that's accessible to institutions, retail, and everyone in between.

Nice look at different flavors of tranching from @0xyanshu and seeing @LotusFi_ contrasted with other applications of tranching. (we’re talking to a couple of these other teams for possible crossovers)
For Lotus, tranching - in combination with Cascading Supply - was our answer
An overview of @LotusFi_ and its market tranching by LTV (higher LTV -> higher rate).
In risk-curated, isolated market models, the market-dominant LLTV for a specific collateral/debt pair often caters to the most risk-tolerant curators.
Innovation behind Lotus protocol brings
The response has been encouraging and the feedback is already shaping the next version of Lotus.
We’re preparing to open the platform to more users soon
More to come
Risk became something users could see, price, and act on
“Knowing you’re senior in the capital structure is much better than saying that you're pooled with everything or handing risk management to curators. Very compelling differentiation” – DeFi Engineer, Structured Products
Native workflows felt differentiated and intuitive
"The migration feature is really nice. That was super easy. I don't know if I've seen something like that before." – Protocol Researcher, L2
Users understood the mental model quickly
“I’m impressed with how intuitive it is. I also like the tranching as a lender; it allows me to
borrow and supply and carry within one platform. Quite unique.” – DeFi Integrator, Yield Aggregator
