@Lorenzo Protocol Backed by the support of YZi Labs, it has aimed at institutional-level on-chain asset management from the very beginning. At its core is their Financial Abstraction Layer (FAL), which simply means moving traditional financial fund products onto the chain, transforming them into tradable On-Chain Traded Funds (OTF). For example, their stBTC and enzoBTC are liquid staking derivatives of BTC, allowing users to lock up BTC in exchange for a token that can be traded at any time and earn yield. Don't underestimate this innovation: based on the Babylon chain, it allows BTC not just to 'sit idle' but also to participate in DeFi lending, liquidity pools, and more. Their flagship product USD1+ is even more remarkable, combining the yields of RWA (Real World Assets), trading strategies, and DeFi protocols, enabling stablecoin holders to directly take advantage on-chain.$BANK As a native token, it not only governs but also drives incentive mechanisms, making the entire ecosystem more sticky.

But having a good product is not enough; liquidity is king. This is where InterportFi comes into play. It is a DEX aggregator focused on cross-chain transactions, claiming to find the optimal path from over 250 DEXs and liquidity sources. Its killer feature is seamless interchain swaps; users wanting to bridge from Ethereum to BNB Chain, or vice versa, basically don't have to wait long. The support of Chainlink CCIP makes the entire process safe and efficient. InterportFi is not just a flashy bridging tool; it’s more like a 'cross-chain courier,' helping you avoid high gas fees and slippage traps. The $ITP token also plays a role here, driving liquidity incentives and governance for the protocol.

The key node for collaboration between the two projects is the bridging integration that started in October this year. First came sUSD1+ (a yield-bearing variant of Lorenzo's stablecoin), then $BANK itself, allowing users to directly bridge these assets from Lorenzo's main battlefield Ethereum/BNB Chain to other chains like Sui or Move ecosystems. This is not just a technical connection; it's more like injecting a shot of adrenaline into BTC DeFi. Imagine this: you hold stBTC, which could only be played on limited chains. Now, with one click, you can bridge over and access lending pools like NAVI Protocol to earn multi-source yield. Or, use $BANK After the bridge, directly participate in Hemi Network's new products, instantly amplifying liquidity several times.

Why is this collaboration so cool? Because it hits the pain points of the crypto ecosystem. Remember the cross-chain bridge hacking incident in 2022? Trust in bridging plummeted. But the design of InterportFi, using a combination of aggregation + CCIP, reduces single point risk;#lorenzoprotocol which provides high-quality yield assets, ensuring that what is bridged over is not 'stagnant water.' The result? A leap in user experience: transaction fees have decreased by 20-30%, and bridging time has shrunk from minutes to seconds. More importantly, this drives the 'de-pegging' of BTC. In the past, BTC was always treated as 'digital gold.' Now, through this collaboration, it can flow freely like ETH and participate in the real DeFi cycle. Data-wise, Lorenzo's TVL has already surpassed 500 million dollars, and InterportFi's daily trading volume has stabilized in the millions. Together, it is expected to attract more institutional funds.
