I don't intend to write a long article about Falcon Finance.
But then one weekend afternoon, I sat alone in my small apartment, opened the dashboard, looked at the 5 million dollars in tokenized treasuries of my fund sitting still in the Falcon vault, minted USDf, then used that USDf to stake sUSDf, go LP, pay off a debt to another protocol without selling a single ETH, I suddenly felt a chill.
That feeling is not 'wow, the yield is extremely high', nor is it 'the peg holds well'.
But it is the feeling that for the first time in my life, I see my assets no longer being 'imprisoned'.
It is still there, still earning, still mine, but at the same time, it is also flowing everywhere, working for me in places I have never even thought of.


That is when I realized Falcon Finance does not do lending.
They do something much bigger.


They create a platform for your assets to breathe.



In the past, my assets were like a tree being uprooted and placed in a small pot.
ETH is for staking, BTC is for holding, treasuries are for staying still, RWA is locked in a separate vault.
If you want to use the money, you have to sell, unwind, pay taxes, endure slippage, and suffer pain.
Falcon is different.
I put the tree into a larger pot – Falcon vault – and from the roots of that tree, a stream of USDf flows out.
The stream flows everywhere: paying debts, staking, LP, paying merchants through AEON Pay, even providing margin for perpetual trades.
The tree remains intact, the roots still absorb nutrients (still earn yield from treasuries, dividends from NVDAx tokenized, basis trades from BTC), but now I have water to irrigate the entire garden.
I no longer have to choose between 'holding assets' and 'using money'.
This is the greatest declaration that Falcon never shouts out loud, but I feel it every day.
In the past, I always had to choose:


Hold BTC long-term → money is deadlocked.
Sell BTC for cash → lose upside.
Borrowing from somewhere → worry about liquidation, interest rates, oracle lag.
Now, I do not.
Assets are still assets, but I have an additional layer of clean liquidity, overcollateralized, diversified, hard peg, deterministic redemption, real-time NAV.
It's like having a second lung – still living normally, but now I can breathe deeper, run further.


USDf is not a stablecoin. It is 'the liquid version of my portfolio'.
Every time I mint USDf, I do not create debt.
I create a liquid version of the very assets I have built over the years.
Collateral ratio 150-200%, diversified crypto + treasuries + RWA yield-bearing, liquidation segmented by asset type – I know for sure: no matter how crazy the market gets, USDf is still mine, still pegged, still redeemable for the original assets.
That's why I dare to put 70% of the fund portfolio here and sleep well.
Falcon's true vision is not 'better lending', but 'making holding assets more profitable than selling them'.
They do not compete with Aave or Compound for the highest leverage.
They compete with the very fear of 'having to sell' that every long-term holder faces.
Every time I mint USDf, I do not borrow money.
I am just telling the market: 'I still maintain faith in my assets, but I will not let them sit idle any longer.'
And the BANK token is 'the ballot' to keep this vision from being distorted.
Everyone knows governance tokens are often abused.
But at Falcon, BANK is not for pumping prices or farming votes.
It is a tool for the community (which now includes large funds, a DAO, and a company treasury) to collectively say 'no' to things that could destroy the vision:


Do not excessively increase leverage.
Do not add junk collateral.
Do not expand too quickly to the point of losing safety.
I locked veBANK for 2 years, voting against a proposal to add meme tokens as collateral – the proposal failed 78%.
It feels like the first time I held a token that genuinely protects value, rather than just for pumping.


The future that Falcon is building, as I see it, is like this:
One day, every long-term portfolio – from pension funds to company treasuries to 10-year BTC holders – will no longer have to choose between 'holding' and 'using'.
They will put assets into the Falcon vault, mint USDf, and then live normally.
USDf will flow throughout DeFi like water, but its origin will be real assets, preserved, protected, and breathing.

I do not know if Falcon will be completely successful.
But since I started using it, I no longer have to choose between holding assets and living my life.
This is the declaration that Falcon never writes down, but I feel it every day.


If you have ever sat there, looking at your portfolio and sighing because it is too 'heavy' to move, then you might understand what I am saying.
