Hubble is a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol built on Solana. Hubble's core product is USDH, a decentralized stablecoin that can be borrowed against your crypto assets. Users can deposit multiple crypto assets like SOL, BTC, ETH, and others, to borrow USDH. In turn, USDH can be used to serve various purposes across Solana DeFi. Hubble will offer multiple USDH borrowing vaults, with various asset combinations and vault-specific parameters such as Stability Fees and Deposit Caps. USDH borrows are guaranteed by a combination of Hubble's USDH Vault (Stability Vault), and bots that facilitate market-based liquidations. The USDH that users deposit into the USDH Vault is used to pay off bad loans, while depositors earn a net positive ~10% difference in liquidated assets. In addition, users who deposit USDH in the USDH Vault earn HBB, Hubble's native token. In the coming phases of development, the protocol will launch various products and services to bring further utility to the platform, and USDH itself.More Info: https://hubbleprotocol.io/Support the show: https://hype.co/@gritdailynewsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
