What to Know:
- Pendle’s total value locked (TVL) has apparently decided to go big or go home, smashing through the $8.27 billion mark, because why not? Meanwhile, its native token PENDLE has surged a startling 45% in the past week-likely because sitting on piles of virtual money makes people happy and a little dizzy.
- The protocol’s latest stunt-Boros-lets traders go long or short on funding rates like a Wall Street cowboy on a caffeine high. Since its debut, it’s been as popular as the office coffee machine on a Monday, drawing in big deposits and activity faster than a meme going viral.
- Pendle isn’t just riding the crypto rollercoaster; it’s leaving the whole market behind. Its token PENDLE has outperformed the wider crypto crowd, which only managed a modest 13.15% rise in the same period, probably wishing they’d bought Pendle stock instead.
Pendle’s TVL decided it was time to break all records, reaching a jaw-dropping $8.27 billion-probably because nobody told it to stop. Meanwhile, PENDLE shot up 45%, hitting $5.6, all thanks to its shiny new yield-trading platform that’s apparently the crypto equivalent of chocolate on the pillow.
Bitcoin funding rates are purring along at about a 10% annualized rate, with around $80 billion dancing wildly back and forth between longs and shorts-because nothing says ‘fun’ like speculating with the world’s money.
Boros is turning yields into tradable on-chain assets called Yield Units (or YUs-because who doesn’t love abbreviations that sound like Yoda’s catchphrases). Traders can now bet long or short on actual rates-think of it as financial limbo where everyone’s trying to out-flex the other with clever moves.
This new toy isn’t just for show; it’s a Swiss Army knife of strategies-hedging floating rates, locking in juicy yields when markets get jittery, or just pretending you know what you’re doing and swinging for the fences.
In only two days, Boros managed to attract over 283 WETH (roughly $1.1 million) and 6.4 WBTC (about $750K)-because who wouldn’t want to gamble with Willy Wonka’s golden ticket?
Activity on Pendle’s Arbitrum chain erupted like a fireworks display, with 1,428 active addresses-a number that probably leaves the average Facebook user in the dust-and both buyers and sellers seeming to do the hustle on decentralized exchanges, according to TheTie data.
Plans are afoot to expand Boros beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum funding rates-perhaps to staking rewards or tokenized Treasury bills-because why settle for small dreams when you can aim for the crypto constellation?
Pendle’s overall stellar performance is also buoyed by its recent dance with Hyperliquid, which saw the launch of Kinetiq’s kHYPE-a liquid staking token that managed to hoard $221 million in total value. That, my friend, is what you call a splash.
All in all, PENDLE’s weekly rise puts it among the stars, outshining the broader crypto universe, which still looks up longingly, wishing it had half that mojo.
