Starting today, December 27th at 6am UTC, users begun providing liquidity to the Saffron/Rari DAI adapter pool as part of Epoch 4. We are so excited to be working with Saffron Finance — the pioneers in DeFi fixed interest rate investments now utilizing Rari’s high yielding strategies to boost returns in the integrated tranches.

About Saffron Finance

Despite only launching last month, the development team at Saffron Finance have come together to deliver a brilliant innovation in the decentralized finance sector. This decentralized protocol optimizes yield for users contributing liquidity with various predetermined tranches set at different risk levels. These tranches are set to two week epochs, where those contributing liquidity across the provided pairs receive payouts in exchange for locking their funds up for 2 weeks. Saffron successfully mitigates significant effects of impermanent loss by categorizing risk and return while allowing its users to choose their risk level.

What does this mean for Rari Capital users?

Saffron Finance has opened up a DAI tranche specifically designed for Rari’s new DAI pool! Why would they do this? The Rari Dai Pool lends across multiple lending protocols and is constantly rebalancing and optimizing for the highest yield possible. This is very special for users in DeFi as this is the first known tranche that allows anyone to take advantage of a yield aggregator, like Rari Capital, performing as the underlying interest generating machine within the trance.

As part of this partnership, Saffron Finance has integrated the Rari DAI Pool into their newest tranche and us at Rari Capital designed and built our own interface to easily interact with the latest tranche.

Whether you use the Saffron Finance website or the Rari Capital portal, you will easily be able to deposit/withdraw/track all of your positions!

Easily stake your SFI!

The DAI/Rari pool is incentivized with 200 SFI! This means that all deposits into this trance will be rewarded with SFI distributions throughout Epoch 4!

Closing Thoughts

Rari Capital has been focused on sustainable yield since inception. Although the Rari Protocol currently bounces between lending protocols such as Compound Finance, Aave, yEarn, mStable, and more, the future is in sustainable yields. Our integration within Saffron tranches is just one example of how we plan to present safe and fixed yields to users using the growing list of strategies defined in our protocol.
