Arcadia Lending Pools

Arcadia Lending offers isolated lending pools where Lenders supply assets to earn passive yield.

Strategists and Farmers can borrow funds from the lending pools, using their Arcadia Accounts as collateral, and pay interests to the Lenders.

Deposits in Arcadia’s lending pools can be covered, protecting deposits against smart contract exploits.

Currently, Arcadia supports USDC, wETH, and cbBTC lending pools, each operating independently. These pools follow the ERC-4626 vault standard, making them compatible with platforms like Superform and Vaults.fyi.

How It Works

  • Lenders deposit assets and receive yield-bearing tokens that automatically accrue yield.

  • Borrowers use Arcadia Accounts to create leveraged liquidity positions on various DEXs.

  • Interest rates adjust based on pool utilization—higher borrowing demand means higher returns for lenders.

  • Liquidations ensure unhealthy positions are closed before bad debt occurs, with lenders earning a share of penalties paid by the liquidated Accounts.

Arcadia takes no protocol fees, so lenders keep 100% of interest and liquidation rewards.
