Dynamic Lending Rates

At Tea-REX, we have a dynamic lending rate model that evolves like the natural environment, providing optimal capital efficiency and market stability.

Model

The lending rate model is represented by two primary curves:

  1. Borrow Rate Curve (Blue) - The borrow rate paid by Rex Wranglers (Traders) β†’ The rate paid by borrowers increases as more liquidity is borrowed from the pool.

  2. Supply Rate Curve (Orange) - The APY earned by Jungle Patrons (Lenders) β†’ The Lending APR earned by suppliers rises as borrowing increases.

As shown in the graph, these rates adjust dynamically based on the Utilization Rate of each Earn Pool.

Key Parameters:

  • Base Rate (1%): The minimum borrowing APR when the pool’s utilization is low.

  • Growth Rate (24%): The rate at which borrowing costs increase as utilization rises.

  • Reserve Ratio (10%): The portion of the pool kept in reserve for stability.


Example at 80% Utilization:

  • Borrowers pay around 20% APR.

  • Suppliers earn about 16% APR.

As the Utilization Rate increases, both borrowing costs and Lending APR rise, rewarding Jungle Patrons for their liquidity.
