IPOR: The heartbeat of DeFi

Fix your interest rate or hedge your exposure by leveraging non-custodial on-chain IPOR derivative instruments

Trade or Provide Liquidity

How do IPOR derivatives work?

IPOR fixes borrowing rates using an interest rate swap with the liquidity pool as contract counterparty

STEP 1

Quote IPOR Index

Determine whether you want to pay fixed or pay floating rate based on the current IPOR rate.

STEP 2

Contract Pricing by AMM

The Automated Market Maker (AMM) determines the price of opening a contract by assessing the current IPOR rate, all open contracts, historical data, and the size of the contract.

STEP 3

Opening the Contract

The AMM will present all the necessary information including the rate, the fees, and the contract size. The liquidity pool acts as the contract counterpart and you can choose to open a contract.

Build on IPOR

The IPOR DAO will govern the protocol giving the community the ability to make updates to the protocol, make decisions on construction of the index, launch new products, and more.
