Users and Ecosystem
Chad Finance is designed to serve a diverse range of users within the DeFi ecosystem, creating a flywheel effect that drives liquidity, capital efficiency, and adoption, particularly on emerging L2 networks.
Target Users
Liquidity Providers (LPs):
Collateralize LP positions to borrow CUSD, enabling leverage, hedging, or other advanced DeFi strategies.
Continue accruing swap fees on collateralized positions, maximizing capital efficiency.
Traders:
Benefit from deep liquidity on Chad Swap, driven by LPs incentivized to provide liquidity to leverage their positions or earn additional yield.
Stablecoin Holders:
Earn risk-free yield by staking CUSD into sCUSD, providing a passive income stream without exposure to collateral risk.
DeFi Integrators:
Leverage CUSD and sCUSD in external DeFi protocols, such as lending platforms, yield aggregators, or derivatives markets, due to their ERC-20 and ERC-4626 compliance.
Institutional Participants:
Access stable and yield-generating investment opportunities within DeFi, supported by the stability of CUSD and the yield of sCUSD, with governance participation via veCHAD.
Ecosystem Benefits
Deep Liquidity: Chad Finance incentivizes liquidity provision by allowing LPs to collateralize their positions, creating deep liquidity for major assets on L2 networks.
Capital Unlocking: The protocol unlocks capital that would otherwise remain idle in illiquid LP positions, enabling users to deploy it for leverage, hedging, or yield generation.
Flywheel Effect: The combination of deep liquidity, capital efficiency, and yield opportunities creates a self-reinforcing ecosystem, driving growth and adoption on L2 networks.
