Solstice

23.5 Degrees - Apr 7th x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

One thing breaks and everything starts to unwind. @luketruitt from @loopscale on how one failure can cascade through DeFi when yield-bearing assets are involved.

@mpozzecco Separating layers gives more control.

Most DeFi systems run like a car where fuel, engine and steering are all fused together. Push for more speed (yield) → you risk losing control (stability). @solsticefi splits the machine: > USX = fuel tank > eUSX = engine output > SLX = steering wheel So when yield demand increases, you’re not pressurizing the fuel layer itself. That’s subtle and important: yield becomes a controllable output, not a side effect. That’s how you avoid classic DeFi instability loops. PS: Solstice TGE is coming soon (end of April).

@rainyo Yields have never looked this good.

right now it’s prime time for stablecoins i’m seeing juicy apy on @solsticefi eUSX & USX via exponent, around 5-10% also flares boost goes up to 30x, which turns it into an even more attractive play for my stablecoins so what do we have: farming flares + yield trading = ~150-300% upside on your stablecoins

@0xgoryu USX is out here doing actual work while you sleep.

Solstice isn't another stablecoin protocol. It's institutional-grade DeFi infrastructure. Built on Solana, backed by Deus X Capital ($1B AUM), Galaxy Digital, Bitcoin Suisse, and Susquehanna Crypto. The kind of names you usually don't see behind a permissionless protocol. At the center is USX, Solana's largest native stablecoin, currently sitting at $356M+ in TVL. USX is a synthetic, delta-neutral stablecoin. That means the yield doesn't come from unsustainable incentives. It comes from real strategies: funding rate arbitrage, hedged staking, and tokenized treasuries. The protocol holds both long and short positions simultaneously, canceling out price exposure. That's what "delta-neutral" means in practice, stable yield without directional risk. If you hold USX, you can lock it into YieldVault to receive eUSX, the yield-bearing version that compounds over time. Or you can simply hold USX in your wallet and earn Flares. Solstice's points that determine your $SLX airdrop allocation. Here's where it gets interesting: the multiplier system. → Hold USX in your wallet: 5x daily Flares → Hold 100+ USX for 1 month: 6x multiplier → Hold 100+ USX for 3 months: 15x multiplier That 15x isn't a gimmick. It's designed to reward long-term conviction. The multiplier settles at the end of the holding period, meaning you don't get it upfront, you earn it by staying. $356M TVL. Institutional backing. Real yield mechanics. And a clear incentive to hold, not flip. That's @solsticefi.

@Trathoa @Rockaway_X @itschriselias This will be a special one. Don't miss it.

The Drift exploit is dominating CT right now, and it’s a fair question: does this change anything for institutional Solana? Instead of noise and speculation, we’re getting a real conversation today. Ben and Ryan are joined by @Rockaway_X and @itschriselias on 23.5 Degrees to unpack what actually matters for institutions ... security, liquidity, and long-term trust. If you care about the real future of institutional adoption on Solana, this is the Space to be in.

@Sae3ds Good that you mentioned issuer risk.

USX + RWA = 12% Hands Free If you’re exploring @solsticefi ecosystem, the new RWA Liquidity Hub turns USX into your stable yield powerhouse, backed by realworld assets like Treasuries for 12%+ returns without peg worries What Are RWAs? Real World Assets bring traditional finance onchain, Solstice connects them directly to USX for guaranteed, volatility free yield pure composability at work How It Works: 3 Simple Steps 1. Stake USX in Earn Flares → Receive Flares (20x multiplier active) 2. Add RWA collateral → Lock ~12%+ fixed APY, no leverage needed 3. Enable auto compound → Profits stack automatically Real Example 1000 USX deposited → ~10 USX monthly profit (12% annualized) + Flares bonus, RWA secure principal while yield accrues steadily no manual rebalancing USX vs Regular Stables USX+RWA: 12%+ real Treasury yield from tokenized assets, minimal peg risk USDT/USDC: 0% yield just hold with medium depeg exposure and no composability Key Risks RWA issuer default Protocol liquidity shifts Always maintain Health Factor >1.5 for safety Educational content only not financial advice or strategy recommendation, New to @solsticefi?

@havelaw11 That’s how institutional TVL actually starts coming in.

Solstice, 첫 stVault 통합 - 문제 : 기관에서 stETH를 담보로 쓰려면 즉시 청산이 가능해야 하는데, 기존 언스테이킹은 수일이 걸려 실제 운용에 쓰기 어려웠음 - 해결 : Solstice가 Lido V3 기반 stVaults를 통해 이 문제를 해결. 지연 없이 즉시 청산이 가능해짐 - 첫 도입 : CorPrime이 최초 도입 기관으로, 기관 대출, 레버리지 운용 전반에 stETH를 담보로 활용 시작. 기관급 규모의 TVL이 Solstice 위에 쌓이는 첫 사례 ✍️ CorPrime 하나로 @solsticefi 는 실사용 레퍼런스, TVL 증가, 기관용 인프라 포지션을 동시에 얻었음. 안전하고 고성능인 스테이킹으로 신뢰를 쌓는다는 방향이 말이 아니라 실제 기관 파트너로 증명된 것으로 보면 될 듯.

@Divjay_ Getting top 10 on Solana proves everyone wants real yield. We only go up from here.

@iwa_of_web3 @ExponentFinance This is actually useful for beginners.

Throughout the weekend I was busy digging into @solsticefi via @ExponentFinance on Solana and figured I would share a simple breakdown of YT and LP,  because these mechanics can be confusing at first. I made a post about this weeks ago but I read more and I feel I should make another post going deeper. 1. YT (Yield Token) YT represents only the future yield from a Solstice position. When you split a position on @ExponentFinance, it gets divided into: • PT → your principal • YT → your future yield If Solstice yields perform well, YT gains value If yields drop, YT loses value And at expiry, YT always goes to zero So YT is basically: • A bet on future yield performance • Higher volatility than PT • Often stronger for points + incentive exposure This makes YT popular for users looking for higher upside from Solstice’s YieldVault returns, which come from delta neutral strategies like funding arbitrage and hedged positions. (Coincub) 2. LP (Liquidity Provider Token) LP comes from pairing PT + base asset to support trading in the PT/YT markets. By providing liquidity, you: • Help traders enter/exit YT and PT • Earn swap fees • Earn Flares / incentives • Get blended exposure instead of pure yield speculation LP is typically: • Lower volatility than YT • More stable reward flow • Still exposed to liquidity risks Liquidity is important because Exponent works like a yield exchange, where users trade fixed vs variable yield expectations LPs keep that market functioning smoothly. (Exponent) Quick Comparison • PT → Lock principal, redeem at maturity • YT → Variable yield exposure (higher risk, higher upside) • LP → Earn fees + incentives from supporting the market Why This Matters on @solsticefi Solstice focuses on institutional style yield strategies rather than speculative farming ,things like funding arbitrage and hedged positions that generate market-neutral returns. (Coincub) Because yields are dynamic: • YT becomes a directional yield play • LP becomes a steady participation strategy • PT becomes the conservative option Different risk levels ,same underlying yield engine. Risks to Keep in Mind • Yield rates can change • Liquidity risk still applies • Incentives can adjust • YT decays toward expiry Just sharing mechanics so it’s easier to understand how everything fits together.

@patildoteth Good explanation, simple and clear. Always ask: is this capital actually working?

Most people hear about TVL (Total Value Locked) but do not really understand why it matters. TVL simply means the total money locked inside a platform. Right now, @solsticefi has a TVL of around $356.79M, which shows that a large amount of users trust the platform and are actively using it. TVL is important because it shows how strong and active an ecosystem is. Higher TVL usually means more users, more liquidity, and better opportunities for earning yield. When people deposit funds, mint $USX, use PT/YT, or provide collateral, all of that adds to TVL. TVL can grow when more users join, when new features like better yield strategies or partnerships are added, and when people keep their funds in the system for longer time. It also grows when the platform gives real utility, not just hype. In platforms like Solstice, TVL is even more powerful because funds are not just sitting idle. Users can move money across different protocols, use it as collateral, and earn in multiple ways. This increases efficiency and keeps the ecosystem active.

@ParmisaRad @ExponentFinance That’s where capital efficiency kicks in.

Why is PT-USX important? because it offers predictable yield and improves capital efficiency. In @solsticefi, when you convert $USX to PT-USX through the @ExponentFinance , you’re essentially entering a fixed-maturity position. That means: - More predictable yield - Reduced risk from fluctuating lending rates - Better planning for your capital @solsticefi infrastructure also allows PT-USX to be used as productive collateral instead of sitting idle. This means: - access to liquidity without selling your asset - more efficient leveraged strategies - more flexible portfolio management Instead of choosing between fixed yield or liquidity, PT-USX on Solstice gives you both. To get PT-USX: _ first mint $USX stablecoin on the Solstice platform. Then, on the Exponent platform, you can buy a PT with a specific maturity. And remember, $USX is more than just a stablecoin.

@markdino_02 1-click yield lowers the barrier a lot.

Yesterday, I shared how @solsticefi prioritizes security and transparency. Today, let's dive into how you can put your USDC to work in the Solstice 1-Click Yield, earning an estimated 3.4% APY effortlessly! With just 1 Click, Solstice’s YieldVault makes earning crypto yield simple and accessible for everyone, not just institutions. Here’s how it works: you lock your USX and receive eUSX, a liquid staking token. This gives you access to carefully designed strategies that aim to generate steady returns without taking unnecessary risks. Instead of gambling on price swings, YieldVault uses “delta-neutral” strategies. In simple terms, this means it tries to earn yield regardless of whether the market goes up or down. It does this through methods like funding rate arbitrage, hedged staking, and a portion allocated to tokenized treasuries. No hype. No risky bets. Just smart, balanced strategies. The team behind Solstice has been running these strategies for 3 YEARS, achieving an average return of 13.96%, and 21.5% in 2024. Even during major crypto crashes like FTX, USDC de-peg, and Terra/Luna, they protected user funds with zero principal loss. Yield changes with market conditions, but the focus stays the same: stable, transparent, and sustainable returns. You can unlock your funds anytime, but withdrawals over $1,000 USDC have a 7-day cooldown. During this time, your funds stop earning yield, ensuring fairness for all users. Built on fast, scalable infrastructure, Solstice is designed to grow to millions of users. Simple idea: with Solstice, you earn smarter and not riskier.

@SofiaCryptoVibe Each step adds utility to the same asset.

I Learned Solstice #2 - How Composability Actually Works on Solana ? After understanding how maturity works in @solsticefi, the next step is seeing how everything connects. #2 is about composability how different protocols on Solana work together like Lego pieces. Solstice → Exponent → Loopscale ↓ ↓ ↓ USX PT / YT Borrow / Loop You start with Solstice, mint $USX. Then move to Exponent, where USX is split into PT (fixed yield) and YT (variable yield). Then go to Loopscale, where those assets can be used as collateral to borrow, or even loop for higher exposure. Everything happens natively, without bridges or extra layers. That's the real meaning of composability. One key upgrade here is that USX is no longer just a stablecoin. It becomes a base asset that flows across protocols: ▸ Used to create PT/YT on Exponent ▸ Used as collateral on Loopscale ▸ Used for looping and leverage This turns USX into something closer to a "native money layer" inside the ecosystem. At the same time, new assets like ELP-USX combine multiple yield sources, including underlying yield, fixed return, trading fees, and incentives. This increases potential returns, but also adds more complexity that users need to understand. Then comes Loopscale, with a different lending model (Credit Order Book), where users can even loop up to ~5x. It works, but it’s not free yield leverage cuts both ways. And just like before, no auto roll. You still need to manage positions yourself. If #1 was about understanding time and maturity, then #2 is about understanding flow how assets move, interact, and stack across the system. Solstice is not just building a product, but an ecosystem where each piece becomes more useful when connected together.
