Our latest Kasu X space was 🔥 We brought together key voices in RWAs to discuss the sector’s rapid growth. Here are the key highlights for you 👇 With everyone watching their portfolios with dread off the back of Trump's recent round of tariff announcements, @lukelombe offered a timely reminder of the importance of RWAs as a bear market-resistant asset class, stating: “When the market enters bearish conditions, RWA products will come to the forefront as investors look for stable, high-quality yield.” Steven Gaertner from @tiamonds nailed some excellent points: “RWAs are crypto that your grandmother can understand.” Fractionalization and DeFi lending as game-changers for democratising access to high-value real-world investments. @Merlin_M_O from @arkreen_network added to it and put it perfectly: “People want real utility, not just speculation. RWAs provide tangible value in a way that makes sense to the everyday investor.” Real-world assets will need real-world ease and he believes AI and Smart Contacts can help with that. It's clear as a crystal that RWAs are no longer a niche—they’re where serious capital is flowing and will continue to flow.

𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗹𝘆 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 [𝐓𝐌] 𝗼𝗻 𝗚𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝘅 Leverage farming experience with Gearbox is getting juicier and friendlier: less liquidations & lower rates. We will let you know all the details tomorrow, but some of you have already noticed: 𝘍𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘴 = 𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 Fundamental oracles reduce the risks of liquidations caused by thin LRT liquidity. They look into how much ETH is staked with a given LRT provider rather than an LRT market price, granted that LRT has enabled withdrawals. Therefore, fundamental oracles don't actually introduce any trust assumptions for lenders. It's enabled for @ether_fi and will soon come for others, as @redstone_defi will add them shortly. Leverage has risks, but this will make it comfy 😴 𝘓𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘣𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘰𝘸 & 𝘲𝘶𝘰𝘵𝘢 𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 Check the screenshot: borrow quota rates for $weETH, $USDe, $ezETH, $pufETH, $rsETH, $rswETH, and other assets have become more friendly too. There is a bunch of passive capital waiting to be utilized, so go ahead and choose what you like.

Ready for ████████ Gearbox? Posting a deep dive on lending protocols design on Monday, including snippets of some new features 👀 But before we dive into that, let's first look at: 1. Gearbox Protocol accumulated $0 bad debt during the liquidations ✅ Meanwhile, passive lenders continue earning comfy APYs on their capital. With the lending pools being isolated, there was no risk of the spillover effect to other depositors either. Modularity ftw! In fact, there were $600,000+ in revenues... 2. Some of those profits will be voted to distribute back to the affected leverage degens. How much? About 20% of the initial funds a user had on their Credit Account. A vote is going live on Monday. Overall, the design worked somewhat like @UMAprotocol's Oval / @warlock_xyz would. For comparison, usually users would be fully wiped out and get nothing back, but caring is sharing. 3. This deleveraging led to a chunk of capital being freed up from the borrow side. So if you tried to leverage for weeks without luck, well, this is your chance. There is now available liquidity for leverage points farming or PURE margin trading, you choose: @ether_fi, @ethena_labs, @KelpDAO, and more.
