New Developments 🛠

Curve & Convex Vaults

We are excited to announce the imminent release of Ondo’s new Curve & Convex vaults.

Last year, Ondo introduced vaults enabling investors to provide single-sided liquidity on decentralized exchanges (DEXs) while adjusting their risk/reward level. We were blown away by the positive feedback from the community, DAOs, and other investors. Our vaults have provided $200M+ in liquidity to over a dozen projects.

The new release builds on our existing features — from risk tranching and feeless auto-compounding — while introducing a number of new benefits for stableswaps: integrations with Curve & Convex, multi-pair vaults, and flexible tranche ratios.

For more details about these vaults, check out this Medium post.

agEUR-as-a-Service

On April 30, the Angle community approved a partnership with Paladin to utilize Ondo’s Liquidity-as-a-Service offering. This partnership will enable the use of $agEUR as liquidity for $PAL.

Angle will become the first project to utilize Liquidity-as-a-Service with a euro-pegged stablecoin. Angle’s approval follows an initial proposal by the Paladin community, who overwhelmingly voted to approve PGP-10 on April 30, with 14.6M (95.6%) positive votes.

Community 🏘

The last month was an incredible period for community growth. We are overwhelmed with both the level of support and engagement from our brilliant community — thank you to everyone who took a part in this.

We hope that you continue to play a part in, and benefit from, our mutual growth. Our Discord community grew 10x and we are delighted to say that~100 new community members recently earned the Ondonian role! A special thanks to all Ondonians and mods for your outstanding contributions to our community.

DAO-to-DAO

Are you involved in a DAO that could benefit from Ondo products? We’re always looking to expand our partnerships! Make an introduction in the dao-to-dao Discord channel or send an email to partnerships@ondo.finance.

Ondo Finance is building a decentralized investment bank. We are building software that finds attractive investments across the traditional and DeFi landscape, repackages these assets into easily understood risk/reward offerings, and then matches and offers these assets to both institutional and retail investors. Join our community to stay up-to-date with our latest developments and product launches!
