In the traditional on-chain lending model, where you deposit on one chain, you also borrow on that same chain.
Funds are restricted within a framework.
@rhea_finance comes to Berachain, the biggest role is to completely break the boundaries of traditional lending.
Depositing USDT0 in Berachain not only allows you to earn a 9.45% APY.
But also unlocks cross-chain lending capabilities, allowing you to borrow any supported asset from any supported chain.
For instance, when you need $BNB for staking and mining, you can directly borrow $BNB using your position in Berachain as collateral.
You can even borrow assets from non-EVM chains, such as $ZEC on Solana or Zcash, etc.
Of course, you can also borrow supported assets in Berachain through positions on other chains.
The logic behind this is simple: one position connects all chains, maximizing capital efficiency.
For beras, this is the first truly cross-chain collateral liquidity, not a bridge, not wrapped assets, but a true unification at the level of native lending.
From an ecological perspective, the stablecoin liquidity on Berachain is no longer just a circulation within the chain.
You can now directly participate in multi-chain market interest rate arbitrage, asset allocation, and truly cross-ecosystem strategy combinations.
Especially in the current sluggish market environment, allowing USDT0 to continuously generate stable returns is the wisest choice.
Placing it in RHEA while not sacrificing liquidity is just the icing on the cake.
RHEA also has weekly trading competitions, offering a reward of 2500 $NERA, and participating might bring some surprises.
