Silo v3 is LIVE. Silo introduces the safest lending markets in DeFi. We rebuilt the core assumption behind lending: collateral does not need to be sold to keep markets solvent. That shift puts lender protection first — and makes yield more durable. Here’s how 👇
every lending protocol today is built on one assumption: collateral must be sold on a DEX to repay lenders. that single dependency does three things: → limits what assets can be borrowed against → compresses yields for lenders → creates bad debt when/if liquidity disappears
v3 removes that assumption entirely introducing collateral-debt swaps (CDS) when a borrower position gets liquidated, lenders receive the collateral directly — no DEX sale needed. that means two things: → lenders earn liquidation fees in addition to yield → lenders retain the collateral and any upside from price recovery no liquidity dependency. no bad debt. this establishes a new primitive that didn't exist before in DeFi lending
just as in v1 and v2, every market on silo v3 is isolated. you choose exactly what collateral you’re exposed to. no shared pools. no hidden risk. you see the risk. you choose the yield. you opt in.
this unlocks a new class of credit markets in DeFi. assets with real value but weak or no DEX liquidity — LP tokens, bridged assets, RWAs — can now have a credit market. silo v3 doesn't need DEX liquidity to scale credit. that's the unlock.
