Money markets overview

Status

Money markets are in active development. This page captures the target design. Parameters and interfaces may change before the first deployment to DevNet.

The ClearPortX money market is an overcollateralized lending protocol. Suppliers deposit tokens into an asset-specific market to earn interest; borrowers pledge collateral and borrow against it. What makes the ClearPortX money market different is that your DLMM liquidity positions count as collateral.

On existing Canton lending protocols, collateral is a flat list of supported tokens. On ClearPortX, a DLMM LP position is a first-class collateral type. This means a user can:

  1. Deposit CC and cBTC into a DLMM pool to earn swap fees.
  2. Use that pool position as collateral.
  3. Borrow another asset against it without unwinding the liquidity.

The capital is productive twice over: earning swap fees and serving as collateral simultaneously.

Each asset and each LP-position type will have its own risk parameters — collateral factor, liquidation factor, close factor, and liquidation bonus. Initial parameters will be conservative and tuned during beta.

ParameterRole
Collateral factorMax share of collateral value borrowable
Liquidation factorHealth-factor threshold below which positions become liquidatable
Close factorMax share of a loan that can be liquidated in a single call
Liquidation bonusReward paid to liquidators, deducted from seized collateral

Full parameter tables will be published when the first markets are deployed.

The money market consumes price feeds from an independent oracle network. Detailed architecture is documented in Security · Price feeds.

Detailed user and developer pages will ship as the money market progresses toward deployment. For now, see the roadmap for the expected timeline.
