EP 33: True power of tokenisation.Combine derivatives and Repo to create interest-bearing FlexUSD


Listen Later

In this episode, we show the TRUE power of tokenisation. 

How? Interest  earned from derivatives market and tokenise that mechanism.   

The DeFi space is getting more complicated with the derivatives market  and bringing in elements of Repo into DeFi. Whilst this is really  extremely exciting, one problem is that it gets more complicated to  understand.   

This is what I have been talking about! DeFi is the experimental field and we find the various ways to tokenise value add and bring this new model to traditional finance.   I'm so excited. 

TLDR: CoinFlex uses Repo style mechanisms to earn the interest rates  from perp derivatives. The returns are real and is rewarded to FlexUSD  token holders. Thus, FlexUSD becomes an interest bearing USD on crypto.  Think of Aave, but instead of P2P, it's derivatives to spot.   

Next step:  

1) Start creating #FlexUSD here: https://coinflex.com/user-console/register?shareAccountId=1890  

2) Allow the bot to do its thing and earn interest via USDC   

Happy holidays 😉
