Lending on Clearpool
USDC on Ethereum is the first asset that can be lent to Auros’ borrower pool. Clearpool is permissionless for lenders, who only require a web3 wallet connection in order to access the protocol. This gives both individual and institutional lenders equal access to the yield opportunities that are available on Clearpool and lend to top-tier crypto institutions such as Auros.
As a lender, when you provide liquidity to the Auros pool, you will receive cpTokens relevant to this specific pool in return. cpTokens have three main characteristics; they represent the amount of liquidity that has been supplied to a specific pool, they accrue the interest rate for that pool on every block, and they represent the risk profile of the pool borrower. cpTokens can be redeemed at any time, subject to the pool’s liquidity.
Clearpool has already launched four single borrower pools launched by industry-leading crypto native market making and trading firms Wintermute, Amber Group, Folkwang and FBG Capital. The total amount of liquidity provided on Clearpool since the mainnet launch two weeks ago has already surpassed US$50M.
Auros’ Borrower Rating & Capacity
Clearpool has integrated X-Margin’s privacy-preserving technology to dynamically measure and publish Auros’ creditworthiness, and to present an accurate risk score without revealing sensitive information. As a partner, X-Margin helps ensure Clearpool liquidity providers are informed and can make risk-based assessments. At the time of writing, Auros has a borrower rating of ‘A’ and a total Borrow Capacity of US$157M. To learn more about Borrow Capacity and the X-Margin Credit Evaluation Methodology, click here.
