At EnsoFi, we’ve always believed that loyalty programs should go beyond mere point systems and instead provide meaningful rewards for true engagement. That’s why we introduced our Ecosystem Incentive Program, allocating 25% of our total $ENS token supply to genuinely reward our loyal users for their participation and support. This program aims to create a thriving, long-term community that values our platform and is integral to its growth.

Today, we’re excited to announce the conclusion of Season 1 $ENS Rewards and the launch of Season 2 with even more incentives for our users.

Season 1 $ENS Reward Recap: A Step Toward True Loyalty

Season 1, which began on August 2nd, 2024, marked the first phase of our loyalty program, designed to reward users who actively participated in lending and borrowing activities on EnsoFi.

Purpose

The goal of SS1 was simple—reward early adopters and loyal users for their active engagement. By tracking each action on the platform, users accumulated points that directly translated into $ENS tokens. This transparency ensured users knew exactly what they were earning, making the process both motivating and rewarding.

Outcome

• Participants: We saw an overwhelming response from our community, with over 5,000 active participants engaging on the platform during this period.

• Points Distributed: Throughout SS1, over 5,000,000 points were distributed among participants, highlighting the level of engagement on EnsoFi.

• Total Volume: The total volume of lending reached over $1 million, reflecting the strong commitment of our user base.

Reward Distribution

The reward allocation for SS1 was 1,000,000 $ENS, and the distribution of these tokens will be finalized during the TGE period. We’re grateful for the trust and support our early users have shown.

Season 2 $ENS Reward: Expanding Our Reach

With the success of SS1, we’re excited to launch Season 2, which comes with more rewards and the opportunity for a broader user base to participate.

Loyalty programs have long been designed to reward users for their engagement and commitment. They aim to thank users for the loyalty and incentivize users to keep using the product. But as many of us know, current loyalty programs can often fall short of their purpose.

Current point-based loyalty systems can feel repetitive and uninspiring. Users often face the frustration of waiting for rewards and being uncertain about how much they’ll actually receive. This uncertainty can turn what should be a rewarding experience into a tedious chore, making the loyalty program feel like more trouble than it’s worth.

Our approach to Loyalty

At EnsoFi, we believe loyalty programs should be about genuinely rewarding users for their productive usage. We’re committed to bringing back the true essence of what a loyalty program should be—a way to honor and appreciate those who actively engage with and benefit from our platform.

$ENS Reward System

That’s why we’re excited to introduce our Ecosystem Incentive, where we’re dedicating 25% of the total $ENS token supply to reward our loyal users. This significant allocation is designed to be transparent and direct, ensuring that you clearly understand how your engagement with EnsoFi translates into rewards.

Distribution Challenges

One of our major concerns was ensuring that our rewards go to users who are genuinely engaged and passionate about using EnsoFi. We didn’t want to attract users who are simply looking for airdrops. If we distribute large or significant allocations to such users, there’s a risk that they may dump their tokens immediately after listing. This would put immense pressure on the project, potentially jeopardizing its stability and future.

To avoid this, we focused on creating a distribution strategy that rewards those who truly value and use our platform regularly. By doing so, we aim to build a community of loyal users who are invested in the long-term success of EnsoFi, rather than those who may simply be looking for short-term gains.

Seasons for Reward

To tackle this, we’ve introduced a seasonal reward system. Each season’s rewards will be tailored to the current stage of our product and the sentiment of our community. We’ll be transparent about the allocation for each season in advance, so you’ll always know what to expect and can estimate your potential rewards based on your engagement.

Season 1 $ENS Reward

For Season 1, we’re offering 1,000,000 $ENS to users who actively lend and borrow on EnsoFi

This season, we’re especially excited to attract Solana users and early contributors who have supported us from the start. Your engagement is crucial to our growth, and we want to ensure that those who have been with us from the beginning receive the recognition and rewards they deserve.

Every action on EnsoFi will be calculated as points, which reward users for their activities.

These points are immediately converted into an estimated $ENS Reward that users can view in detail, so you always know how much you’re earning.

Our goal is to reward users who are really using EnsoFi, without adding extra hassle. We aim to make the process straightforward and transparent, so you can easily see your rewards and enjoy the benefits without the frustration of waiting or uncertainty.

• Total Reward: 1,000,000 $ENS

• Start Time: 2nd Aug 2024

Our journey began at the end of 2023 when we identified an issue with the peer-to-pool lending model: high utilization leading to increased borrowing rates and reduced capital efficiency. To address this, we developed EnsoFi to offer fixed interest rates, ensuring stability and predictability in lending.

Initially, we planned to test our idea through hackathons. Just a month after starting, we joined SuperteamVN's hackathon with an MVP and unexpectedly secured 2nd place, which motivated us to continue.

However, it wasn't easy. We ran into many problems. Our first idea was too complex for our tech team, so we had to throw away two months of hard work and start over with a new design and system. It was a tough and frustrating setback, but we pushed through and rebuilt from the ground up.

We then took this new concept to the Solana Renaissance hackathon, putting in maximum effort and posting regular updates on Twitter. Although we didn’t win any global tracks, we achieved 1st place in the local track, giving us a significant boost.

With support from Superteam, we connected with key partners MonkeyDAO, SpringX by BuidlerDAO, and Angel Investors.

One of big achievement so far was being selected as one of the 13 #SpringX Solana projects from over 106 global applicants. This opportunity allowed us to participate in an intensive acceleration program with guidance from top Solana builders, refining our product and strategy.

The financial world has long been familiar with the concept of lending, encompassing various forms such as mortgages, lines of credit, and personal loans. However, with the advent of web3 and the rise of cryptocurrencies, a new paradigm of lending has emerged. Lending and borrowing have become crucial strategies for enthusiasts to gain exposure to digital assets, generate passive income, and strengthen their portfolios.

At its core, lending is a digital adaptation of traditional credit and loan systems within the web3 space. Borrowers can secure loans by offering their cryptocurrency holdings as collateral. Conversely, lenders can offer their assets to borrowers in exchange for interest, similar to the interest earned from traditional savings accounts in banks.

Lending has emerged as the 2nd largest sector within DeFi , showcasing remarkable growth and solidifying its importance.

Since October 2023, the total value locked (TVL) in DeFi lending protocols has experienced a significant surge, growing from $14 billion to an impressive $33 billion by May 2024. This rapid growth trajectory suggests a robust recovery and a strong potential to reach the all-time high (ATH) TVL of $50 billion, last seen at the end of 2021 and early 2022.

The current crypto environment, marked by the acceptance of Bitcoin ETFs and increased mainstream attention, has acted as a powerful catalyst for this remarkable growth in DeFi lending. The institutional validation and wider adoption brought about by these developments have bolstered confidence in the crypto market, driving more users to explore and invest in DeFi platforms.

As a result, the lending sector within DeFi is poised to continue its upward trend, fueled by enhanced accessibility, investor interest, and the innovative nature of decentralized financial services.

Growth Horizons

Market Opportunity

The blockchain industry is still growing, with DeFi at its heart. Within this space, the DeFi lending market has reached $10.3 billion. However, compared to the enormous $10.5 trillion global lending market, crypto lending makes up only 0.1% of the total. This huge difference shows how new the crypto lending market is and how much room there is for growth.

Most of the top players in the crypto lending market, like Aave, Compound, Kamino, and MarginFi, etc, use a peer-to-pool lending model. In this model, lenders put their assets into a pool, and borrowers can take loans from this pool. This system helps manage capital well and has been key to the early success of DeFi.

Despite the benefits, peer-to-pool lending has a big problem: floating interest rates. These rates change based on how much of the pool is being used. When the pool is heavily used, rates go up quickly to reduce usage. However, this system isn't very effective and usually just keeps usage at an optimal level.

The issues with floating interest rates in peer-to-pool lending models create unacceptable rate spreads that hinder the development of a mature financial system. Even if large institutional liquidity were available, there would still be significant slippage on large loans. To enable DeFi to go mainstream and fully realize its potential, it is crucial to address and fix these rate spread problems. Otherwise, the crypto lending market is missing out on tapping into the huge $10.5 trillion global lending market.

Demand of Fixed Interest Rate

Fixed-rate lending can address these issues by providing a stable and predictable rate environment. This stability is crucial for attracting institutional-sized liquidity, which requires reliability and precision in financial planning. With fixed rates, DeFi can offer more appealing and understandable products, making it easier for new users to enter the market and for existing users to plan their financial strategies effectively.

The introduction and traction of fixed-rate lending in DeFi can remedy the problematic rate spreads, establishing a legitimate yield curve. This foundational change is necessary for the development of more complex financial derivatives and applications. Yield derivatives, for instance, hold exciting potential within the crypto space but require a healthy and stable interest rate foundation to thrive.

Fixed interest rates can create a more mature and efficient DeFi ecosystem. They will enable better risk management, improve user confidence, and facilitate the creation of advanced financial products. As DeFi continues to grow, the demand for fixed interest rates will become increasingly critical in shaping a sustainable and integrated financial future.

Demand of innovative products for LSTs

In 2023, Ethereum's liquid staking market experienced significant growth, primarily driven by the Shapella upgrade, allowing withdrawals from the Beacon Chain. This led to a rise in staked ETH, reaching 28.6 million ETH by December 2023. The adoption of liquid staking derivatives (LSDs) also surged, with approximately 44% of all staked ETH now held in these protocols. This expansion has been fueled by yield-seeking ETH holders and the increasing utility of LSDs within the DeFi ecosystem.

Additionally, Solana's liquid staking market saw Marinade initially dominate, but Jito emerged as a strong competitor, particularly in Q4. Jito's success was partly attributed to the distribution of Jito points, which led to a significant airdrop event. The lowest tier of users received 4931 JTO tokens each, estimated to be worth ~$10K on the day of the airdrop. Additionally, BlazeStake, a newcomer, offers token-incentivized rewards for staking, successfully providing bSOL holders with additional yield opportunities.

As liquid staking brings a wave of innovation to the DeFi product stack, the demand for new and innovative financial products continues to rise. One of the most exciting developments in this area is the concept of LSDfi, which has started to gain traction as the next big thing. Leveraging liquid staked tokens (LSTs) has become a necessity for several reasons.

The ability to lend and borrow LSTs natively within DeFi platforms can significantly enhance liquidity and capital efficiency. By allowing these assets to be used as collateral or for earning yields, DeFi platforms can attract more users and increase the overall utility of staked ETH. This native lending and borrowing capability can serve as a major catalyst for growth within both the liquid staking and lending markets.

Demand of cross-chain product

The current DeFi landscape is characterized by a plethora of blockchain networks, each with its unique features and ecosystems. While this diversity fosters innovation, it also leads to fragmentation, where assets and liquidity are confined within individual chains. This siloed approach restricts users' ability to fully leverage their holdings, as they are often unable to seamlessly move assets between different platforms

Liquid staking derivatives (LSDs) are a prime example of how cross-chain functionality can enhance DeFi. In both the Ethereum and Solana ecosystems, LSDs have emerged as vital tools for providing liquidity to staked assets. However, the benefits of LSDs can be significantly amplified through cross-chain integration. For instance, liquid staked ETH and SOL could be utilized across multiple DeFi platforms, regardless of the underlying blockchain, thereby increasing their utility and yield opportunities.

The adoption of cross-chain solutions is inevitable as the DeFi ecosystem continues to expand. A connected ecosystem, where assets can move freely between chains, will unlock new possibilities for innovation and growth. Users will benefit from increased liquidity, enhanced yield opportunities, and a more seamless DeFi experience.

As the DeFi landscape continues to evolve, selecting the right blockchain to build on is crucial for the success and growth of any project. EnsoFi has chosen Solana for several compelling reasons, ranging from its supportive community culture to its advanced technological capabilities and its burgeoning DeFi ecosystem. Here’s an in-depth look at why EnsoFi is building on Solana.

Community

Culture of Support

One of the standout point of the Solana ecosystem is its robust and supportive community culture. This culture is deeply ingrained in the blockchain’s ethos and is evident in the actions of the Solana Foundation and the broader community. A notable example is when the Solana Foundation supported the Madlads project by adopting Madlad profile pictures (PFP) as their avatars. This act not only highlighted the foundation's endorsement but also fostered a sense of unity and encouragement within the community.

Community-Led Initiatives

Beyond the foundation, various community-led initiatives play a pivotal role in nurturing new projects. For instance, MonkeyDAO, SuperteamVN, SuperteamUAE and the Pyth Network are known for their active engagement and support of emerging projects through activities such as AMA sessions and FireBuilder chats. These initiatives provide new projects with a platform to gain visibility, share their vision, and receive valuable feedback from experienced community members. This level of support is instrumental in helping projects like EnsoFi gain traction and grow within the Solana ecosystem.

https://x.com/MonkeDAO/status/1769477075117756776

Only Possible on Solana

One of the key technological advantages of Solana is its capability for parallel execution. Unlike many blockchains that process transactions sequentially, Solana can handle thousands of transactions simultaneously, significantly enhancing its scalability and efficiency. This feature is particularly beneficial for DeFi platforms like EnsoFi, where high transaction throughput and low latency are critical.

Parallel execution enables EnsoFi to process multiple lending transactions concurrently without bottlenecks. This ensures a seamless user experience, even during periods of high demand. The ability to handle large volumes of transactions quickly and efficiently makes Solana an ideal platform for implementing sophisticated DeFi protocols. By leveraging Solana’s advanced technology, EnsoFi can offer competitive interest rates and rapid transaction confirmations, enhancing the overall attractiveness of our lending services.

Top Choice for DeFi

Solana's reputation as a top choice for DeFi is well-supported by its impressive growth in Total Value Locked (TVL). From October 2023 to May 2024, Solana has seen a significant increase in TVL to almost $5B, reflecting the growing trust and adoption of its DeFi ecosystem. This growth is indicative of Solana’s robust infrastructure and the confidence that users and developers have in its long-term potential.

The surge in TVL highlights the effectiveness of Solana’s technology and the successful deployment of various DeFi projects on its platform. For EnsoFi, building on Solana means aligning with a blockchain that is not only technologically superior but also one that has proven its capacity to attract and retain significant capital inflows within its DeFi landscape.

Conclusion

EnsoFi’s decision to build on Solana is rooted in a strategic alignment with a community-oriented, technologically advanced, and rapidly growing blockchain. The vibrant NFT culture, robust technological infrastructure, and impressive growth in DeFi adoption make Solana the ideal platform for EnsoFi to realize its vision of revolutionizing decentralized finance. As we continue to innovate and expand, we are confident that Solana’s ecosystem will provide the support and scalability needed to drive our success and deliver unparalleled value to our users.

EnsoFi is the first decentralised peer-to-peer cross-chain lending platform, giving users the ability to lend on one chain while collateralising on other chain at a Mutually Agreeable Interest Rate.

We know that most of the top players in the crypto lending market, like Aave, Compound, Kamino, and MarginFi, etc, use a peer-to-pool lending model. In this model, lenders put their assets into a pool, and borrowers can take loans from this pool. This system helps manage capital well and has been key to the early success of DeFi.

Despite the benefits, there are 2 problems on peer-to-pool lending that EnsoFI aims to solve: Interest Rate Gap and Fluctuating Interest Rate

These issues create unacceptable rate spreads that hinder the development of a mature financial system. Even if large institutional liquidity were available, there would still be significant slippage on large loans. To enable DeFi to go mainstream and fully realize its potential, it is crucial to address and fix these rate problems. Otherwise, the crypto lending market is missing out on tapping into the huge $10.5 trillion global lending market.

Interest Rate Gap

One of the most significant issues in pool lending protocols is the interest rate gap or spread between borrowing and lending rates. During high demand periods, this spread can peak to as much as 15%, resulting in lenders earning less while borrowers pay more.

For example, as shown above, on Kamino, there’s a period when the interest rate spread can reach to 14.3%.

In the future, this is when EnsoFi will come in and remove the middleman, lenders could set a higher interest rate, like 49%. This would benefit borrowers by allowing them to take loans at the same 49% interest rate directly from lenders, effectively reducing the overall cost for borrowers while lenders earn more.

Fluctuating Interest Rate

Another major problem is the fluctuating interest rates that users face after taking a loan. Interest rates can double or even triple in a short period, causing significant financial stress for borrowers. This volatility is a result of demand exceeding supply, making it challenging for users to manage their loans effectively. This unpredictability makes it difficult to onboard non-crypto users who are unfamiliar with such high volatility and expect more stability akin to mainstream financial products.

EnsoFi’s Solution

• Fixed Interest Rates: EnsoFi offers user-defined fixed interest rates that remain stable throughout the borrowing cycle. This ensures that both lenders and borrowers are protected from market volatility, providing a predictable and secure financial environment.

• No Middlemen: We eliminate the need for intermediaries, which often add an extra benefits to both sides. By directly connecting lenders and borrowers, EnsoFi reduces costs and improves efficiency, offering better rates for all participants.

• Cross-Chain Liquidity: EnsoFi leverages cross-chain technology to provide a seamless lending experience across multiple blockchain networks. This not only enhances liquidity but also enables users to take advantage of the best rates available in the market, regardless of the blockchain.

Vision

EnsoFi strives to become a key leader in the DeFi, particularly in bringing non-crypto users into the ecosystem. We envision a balanced lending environment where users can confidently participate in DeFi without worrying about unpredictable interest rates or excessive costs.

Mission

Our mission is to bridge gaps, eliminate middlemen, and bring stability to the lending space. By offering fixed interest rates and leveraging cross-chain technology, we aim to make DeFi accessible and attractive to both crypto and non-crypto users.
