Since inception, Aurigami’s mission has always been to serve as a keystone protocol of Aurora, complementing both existing and emerging protocols to nurture the DeFi ecosystem’s growth. Just like how Solend is to Solana; BenQi is to Avalanche; Geist Finance is to Fantom, Aurigami as the primitive money market has established the core foundation of Aurora’s financial economy, providing a safe and secure platform for users to earn, lend and borrow.

“Just like the art of paper folding, we bring together various points within the Aurora ecosystem and together, the end product becomes way more than the sum of its parts”

Within a short period of time, Aurigami has successfully amassed ~$400m liquidity and catalyzed the TVL surge of Aurora, but we’re only just beginning. As the DeFi scene in Aurora matures and your needs evolve, so will Aurigami to ensure that we will always be well-positioned to support you and the ecosystem.

Here we are thrilled to share with you some of the visions explored for the future of Aurigami, in no particular order.

🚪 Aurora’s One-stop Gateway

Earlier this week, we integrated ETH-AURORA Rainbow Bridge into our UI. This is just the first step towards Aurigami providing a suite of features to serve as a one-stop solution to welcome users into the Aurora ecosystem — all within Aurigami.

📃 The Papermill

A novel gamification of HODL-ing which will introduce a 2-token system (i.e. PLY & PULP), where patience pays off with increasingly larger claimable rewards upfront.

🪙 Yield-bearing Collaterals

Implementation of self-repaying loans through the collateralization of yield-bearing assets, including but not limited to stNEAR and LP tokens.

🎮 Innovation Zone

As a core DeFi primitive, we intend to nurture Aurora’s DeFi ecosystem by supporting new, promising assets. With an isolated innovation zone, we’ll be able to support young and growing protocols in aggregating liquidity without placing the blue-chip market at risk.

🔨 Community Governance

Decentralization of Aurigami’s governance to its community to cultivate a more user-driven development and product.

⚡ Flash Loans & Collateral Swapping

Integrating flash loan functionality facilitates arbitrages, enabling a much more fluid and efficient market to bolster Aurora’s growth.

💳 Undercollateralized Lending

Supercharge capital efficiency through the reduction or elimination of collaterals, unlocking Aurigami loans to a wider set of audience and utility.

📊 Analytics

Empower users with comprehensive analytical data to drive more powerful, data-driven decision making.

💵 Fixed Lending Rate

Enabling fixed lending rate through interest rate derivatives, unlocking powerful yield-trading strategies for our users.

🏦 Protocol Owned Liquidity

Implementation of bonding that will allow more robust management of on-chain liquidity, ensuring the capabilities to support an active, vibrant market.

🌉 Layer 0 Lending

Seamless cross-chain interaction that will enhance interoperability and accessibility of Aurigami, allowing us to attract even more liquidity into the growing ecosystem of Aurora.

Aurigami’s roadmap is centered around cementing the protocol as the go-to platform for your DeFi needs within Aurora and as always, to spearhead the growth and liquidity of the ecosystem. With your support, we will continuously improve Aurigami to deliver an array of new, exciting features.

You ready for the ride, anon? 🚀
