Ripe Protocol

One Loan. Every Asset. Maximum Power.

DeFi lending works great — if you're willing to manage five different vaults. But most people aren't. Five vaults for five assets isn't how people think about their wealth. Your tokenized stocks? Worthless as collateral. Your yield-bearing tokens? Just sitting there, unused.

Ripe simplifies everything. Your entire portfolio — crypto, RWAs, jpegs, everything — backs ONE loan. Finally, borrowing that understands what a portfolio actually is.

The Problem: DeFi Thinks Your Assets Live in Silos

Isolated Vaults (MakerDAO, Liquity) ETH in one vault. WBTC in another. Five assets? Five loans. Five liquidation risks. It's 2025 and we're still pretending portfolios don't exist.

Shared Risk Pools (Aave, Compound) Your ETH backs someone else's degen trade. Their bad debt? Your problem. Oh, and forget about using tokenized stocks or treasury bills.

"Innovation" That Isn't (Morpho, Euler) Slightly better rates. Same old isolation. Each market fragments liquidity further. The future looks exactly like the past.

The Ripe Solution: Unified Multi-Collateral Lending

Your Portfolio:              Traditional:           Ripe:
┌─────────────┐             ┌─────────────┐       ┌─────────────┐
│ 5 ETH       │ ──────────> │ ETH Loan #1 │       │             │
│ 2 WBTC      │ ──────────> │ WBTC Loan #2│       │  ONE LOAN   │
│ 10K USDC    │ ──────────> │ USDC Loan #3│  ───> │  GREEN      │
│ RWA tokens  │ ──────────> │ Can't use   │       │  All Assets │
│ T-bills     │ ──────────> │ Can't use   │       │  Working    │
└─────────────┘             └─────────────┘       └─────────────┘
                            5 positions to          1 unified
                            manage, limited         position,
                            assets                  everything works

Core Protocol

🟢 GREEN: The Stablecoin That Actually Does Something

USDC sits there. DAI does nothing. GREEN? It's working.

• Mint it by borrowing against literally anything

• Stays at $1 through five mechanisms that actually work

• Burns on repayment — no infinite supply games

💰 Borrowing: Your Whole Portfolio, One Loan

Stop juggling vaults. Stop wasting collateral. Just borrow.

• Total portfolio power — Add up everything, borrow once

• Smart rates — Emergency rates only when GREEN needs defending

• Partial liquidations — Lose some, not all

🏦 Collateral Assets: Everything Has Value

From stablecoins to tokenized stocks, from blue-chip crypto to your favorite PFP — if it has value, it can back your loan.

• Unified positions - All assets support one loan

• Weighted terms - Each asset contributes its best LTV

• Extensible vaults - Support for future asset types

🛡️ Liquidations: Protection Through Innovation

Four layers of defense. Partial liquidations only. You keep most of your collateral.

• Redemption buffer - GREEN holders delever you at $1 (no penalty)

• Your assets first - Burns your sGREEN/stables before touching collateral

• Stability pools - Instant liquidity at fixed 5-15% discounts

• Dutch auctions - Time-based pricing for remaining collateral

The Real Vision: Unlocking $16 Trillion

Here's what matters: By 2030, $16 trillion in real-world assets will be tokenized. Stocks. Real estate. Gold. Treasury bills.

Traditional DeFi can't handle them. Too risky. Too different. Too complicated.

Ripe was built for this moment. When your tokenized Tesla shares are as easy to borrow against as your ETH. When that tokenized apartment in São Paulo unlocks liquidity for its owner. When a farmer in Guatemala can finally access capital using tokenized land.

Every other protocol is fighting over the same $500B in crypto. We're building for the $16 trillion that's coming.

One loan. Every asset. The future of finance.

Welcome to lending that actually makes sense.
