O2O in @CoinDesk 🤝
Big thesis of @O2Ocapital's is fixed-rate looping will be one of the largest levers for RWA growth in DeFi
It's largely been untapped (99% of onchain rates are variable) but the growth is undeniable: @Morpho Midnight, @TenorFinance, @formation_so and @kamino Fixed Rates
Ability to match a 6-month 10% RWA against a 6-month 6% fixed loan and capture that spread is a no-brainer versus dealing with spiking variable rates
Institutional Capital will move into this lane fast.

Vaults to $100B the next 24 months and RWAs accounting for half of that
Boom

Full October report: o2ocapital.com/research/rwa-…
The managers are already showing up.
@BitwiseInvest PAPY took in $8M in its first 24 hours lending against real-world credit. @galaxyhq, @GSR_io and @jpmorgan curate vaults now too.
We think ten asset managers are curating vaults by the end of the year
Vaults went from ~$3B to ~$20B in under two years, mostly on @Morpho
>> most of it still earns 4% to 6% on crypto lending
>> our forecast: $22B to $28B by year end
>> the path to $100B runs through real-world yield
Receivables, credit and income ETFs are barely onchain yet 🧵

Good data here on stonks in DeFi
Tokenized stocks are starting to do more than just sit in wallets. 🐘
The top six lending apps now hold $52.3M of tokenized stocks as collateral, led by @kamino at $25.2M and @JupiterExchange Lend at $13.1M.
This is the part that Wally takes a look at after issuance: getting the assets used.
Data: @DefiLlama

This is why I keep trying to understand onchain lending, the numbers are getting hard to ignore lol
🧵3/3
If $35B of tokenized RWAs is sitting unused in DeFi, who puts it to work?

🧵2/3
The products built for DeFi from day one are the ones getting used.
@maplefinance syrupUSDC alone has ~$1B working in DeFi, about a quarter of the total.
Distribution and liquidity is the product. Tokenizing a fund is only the first step
🧵 1/3
Tokenized isn't the same as liquid.
>> @BlackRock BUIDL: $2.8B onchain, $18M working in DeFi
>> @circle USYC: $2.6B onchain, $32M in DeFi
>> @FTDA_US BENJI: $1.7B onchain, $0 in DeFi
Only $4B of the $39B in tokenized RWAs is put to work in DeFi per @RWA_xyz & @DefiLlama
Replying to @FissionXYZ @PanteraCapital
Congrats @FissionXYZ on the $10M raise led by @PanteraCapital. Selling out of a tokenized fund in minutes instead of waiting months on a redemption window is a huge deal for anyone allocating to private credit onchain with any real size. Well deserved

Crypto's biggest Earn programs need subsidies to compete.
>> @coinbase High Yield USDC: 3.2% organic + 2.65% Coinbase-funded
>> @RobinhoodApp Earn: ~5% organic + ~2% Robinhood-funded
Offchain, @JPMorganAM $JEPI and $JEPQ pay 8% to 11% with no subsidy. None of it is onchain yet

Replying to @coinbase
@coinbase lends customers up to $100K $USDC against $SOL on @Morpho. Our 2nd vault brief follows the money onchain to a $34M vault on @base:
- @ClearstarLabs supplies ~80% of the $USDC in the $SOL market
- 217 liquidations, 0 bad debt

Issue 02 of our @O2Ocapital vault deep dive is out 🫡
This edition looks at the work @ClearstarLabs is driving for @coinbase Earn
The DeFi mullet is on full display. This is the clearest growth driver for vault TVL as vaults continue to rip towards that $100B marker we love to tout
