Institutional Investors: Entities such as venture capital firms, private equity funds, and other institutional players that invest significant capital into the pool for stable returns.
Crypto-native Investors: Holders of cryptocurrencies, including stablecoins, who want to allocate their assets into real-world investments to earn passive income.
Investment Funds: Organizations that manage pooled funds from multiple investors, seeking diversified and stable returns by investing in real-world assets.
What They Do:
Provide Liquidity: Supply capital to the liquidity pool, which is used to issue loans to borrowers.
