Deep dives
Pendle Finance and Yield Tokenization
Pendle Finance is a protocol focused on the tokenization and trading of yield-bearing assets. It effectively allows users to split their yield-bearing assets into two distinct tokens: a principal token and a yield token. The principal token serves as proof of deposit, while the yield token accrues yield generated by the underlying asset. This structure enables users to speculate on yield prices independently from the underlying asset or secure fixed earnings, highlighting Pendle's innovative approach to optimizing yield strategies.
