Some truths are just plain and simple, no need to over complicate.
We thought about what happens if other people came for our lunch. What if they did. What if they didn’t. We got to the same answer - we will build the best protocol for users. Nothing changes. So simple. The only moat is moving faster in the right direction. @buffalu__
The funny thing about RWAs, like xStocks, is that they are so weird and unnatural to the crypto natives who only think in terms of metas and narratives, and who have become prolific at producing narrative slop. Unlike memes, RWAs don’t need a narrative, because, you know, there…
Tokenized stocks are the fasted growing individual assets right now, mostly on Solana
$1m in xStocks collateral on Kamino
$500k in xStocks collateral on Kamino New asset class with new challenges, including liquidity, oracles, but highly bullish for Solana DeFi.
The top 3 routes on Kamino Swap have been extremely competitive over the past 10 days: 1. @JupiterExchange - 36.6% Volume Share 2. @DFlowProtocol - 35.8% Volume Share 3. @okx - 27.5% Volume Share And, as always, Kamino Swap charges ZERO swap fees
Just use Kamino Swap. Zero Fees. 6 Routes Aggregated (incl. Jupiter, DFlow, Pyth RFQ, OKX, and more).

1/ Introducing 4 new features to Kamino Earn Designed to provide deeper insight into vault performance and curator activity, directly from the Earn UI Earn Vaults are evolving🧵
DFlow killing it also on Kamino recently devs did something
The DFlow aggregator has crossed $2b in 30 day volume on Solana for the first time! We started this year with < $10m in monthly volume. We’re just getting started. Expect completely redefined market structure, novel trading mechanisms, and continued exponential growth in H2
Impressive transparency exercise by deBridge. Humbling to see they chose Kamino for their Solana treasury.
5/ To preserve value, these balances are staked in leading liquidity protocols as follows. @KaminoFinance has been selected as the trusted provider on Solana for USDC and SOL. The following balances are currently supplied: ~ 19,644 SOL ($3.6M) ~ $2.9M USDC
Borrow curve was lowered to reflect decreased credit risk due to nearly two years on mainnet with no incidents.
