Very cool development.
CDOR takes the real-time interest rates from @aave's USDT and USDC borrow pools and converts them into benchmark rates that TradFi can use.
Essentially creating the SOFR for crypto.
JUST ANNOUNCED: @CoinDesk Overnight Rates (CDOR) to Support Stablecoin Money Markets based on @aave
Stani Kulechov, Founder of @aave Labs says, “CDOR is a new benchmark interest rate built on Aave’s deep onchain liquidity. It provides a transparent, risk-free lending rate that unlocks new use cases for #stablecoins, such as derivatives and fixed-income products, enabling more efficient, scalable, and automated financial markets.”
CDOR was created in collaboration with @heussepa.
@galaxyhq, @FalconXGlobal, @flowdesk_co and @Tyr_Capital will act as founding market makers.
Read their quotes and learn more:
In TradFi SOFR is a benchmark rate for overnight borrowing costs, secured by U.S. Treasury securities.
It's the foundation for massive derivatives markets - interest rate swaps, futures contracts, and other hedging instruments
A crypto version of this lets TradFi firms build similar products on top of DeFi.
Something like this can really only be powered by @aave due to the depth of its liquidity on stables.
This could unlock all kinds of opportunities for new capital.
