0️⃣🏦 Zero-Coupon Bonds Released

After months of hard work, the team is excited to finally release the zero-coupon bonds feature for 88mph. Zero-coupon bonds will provide liquidity to depositors, derisk the floating-rate bonds, and enable the first structured products in DeFi. Structured products will allow DeFi users to speculate on crypto prices at no cost, and even earn yield at the same time. At launch, there will be zero-coupon bonds for the Compound UNI pool and the Harvest 3CRV pool. Audits available here and here. 🥳
