What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A Solana-based lending protocol announced a $2 million strategic funding round. This protocol allows individuals to borrow against tokenized US equities without paying interest. This offering contrasts with rates charged by Charles Schwab, which charges individual investors 12.075% annually on margin balances under $25,000.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The new protocol pays lenders using covered call premiums written against the collateral, rather than charging the borrower interest. This zero-interest model directly challenges traditional securities-based lending, which private banks typically offer at 4% to 6% but only to clients meeting high minimums.
