Have you heard of @ipor_io, a new protocol bringing Interest Rate Swaps (#IRS) on-chain?

Let's explore the $450T IRS market and the opportunities for #hedging, #arbitrage, and #speculation!

🧵👇

What are Interest Rate Swaps (IRS)?

Simply put, it allows two parties to exchange the cash flows of one party’s fixed-rate loan for the other party’s floating-rate loan.

@ipor_io brings IRS on-chain through its three innovative products: IPOR Index, IPOR AMM, and Asset Management.
The IPOR Index reflects benchmark interest rates in DeFi and is freely available for integration into smart contracts.

With @ipor_io, users can #hedge the risk of interest rate fluctuations.
Long IPOR IR allows borrowers to offset the risk of increasing interest rates. Short IPOR IR allows lenders to offset the risk of decreasing interest rates.

@ipor_io also offers opportunities for #arbitrage, allowing users to take advantage of differences in interest rates between #stablecoins.

Lastly, @ipor_io enables users to #speculate and profit from expected changes in interest rates by taking a long or short position on IPOR IR.
