XSilo (XSILO)

XSilo (XSILO) is a non-custodial lending protocol operating on Ethereum and other EVM-compatible blockchains. It creates risk-isolated money markets that allow users to lend and borrow a variety of cryptocurrencies with efficiency and control. The platform boasts a total value locked of $444.4 million, demonstrating significant user trust and participation. XSilo is designed to provide high yields for lenders while ensuring transparency regarding their risk exposure through a risk-isolation framework.

The lending and borrowing functionalities on XSilo are enhanced by sophisticated mechanisms that optimize returns. Users can earn compounded interest on their deposits while maintaining control over their exposure by selecting which assets can be borrowed against. The system allows for additional yield by enabling users to borrow against their collateral, leading to more lucrative opportunities for capital growth. Furthermore, the two-sided isolated markets enhance borrowing efficiency and provide cost-saving measures by allowing collateral to continue earning yield even while borrowed.

Integral to the XSilo ecosystem is the XSILO token itself, which facilitates a dual role as both a reward mechanism and a governance tool within the platform. Users can stake XSILO to earn a share of the protocol fees, effectively participating in the governance of liquidity flow through active voting. This is coupled with advanced security practices that include a formally verified codebase and regular audits, providing users with peace of mind while engaging with the protocol’s diverse offerings.
