RUJI Money Market Expands with New Lending and Borrowing Markets

RUJI Money Market continues to expand, giving people more ways to lend their assets, access liquidity, and manage their collateral.

The latest update introduces 5 new lending vaults, 4 additional assets that can be borrowed, and 3 new assets that can be used as collateral. These additions create more opportunities for lenders and borrowers while helping connect additional markets with liquidity across Rujira and THORChain.

All the new markets and collateral options are now live.

3 New Collateral Assets

AVAX, BNB, and TRX can now be used as collateral for loan positions in RUJI Money Market. Each asset has a collateral ratio of 70%.

This means that $100 worth of AVAX, BNB, or TRX can support up to $70 of debt. Borrowing less than the maximum gives the position a larger buffer against market movements and reduces the risk of liquidation.

These assets can also be combined with other supported collateral inside a single multi-collateral credit account. Instead of managing a separate loan for every asset, borrowers can bring several supported assets together and manage the position as one account.

4 New Assets Available to Borrow

Borrowers can now access 4 additional assets:

  • AVAX

  • BNB

  • ATOM

  • TRX

These markets give borrowers more choice over the type of liquidity they access without requiring them to sell their collateral.

Someone holding BNB, for example, can use it as collateral to borrow AVAX. Other supported collateral assets can also be added to the same credit account, giving borrowers more flexibility in how they structure and manage their position.

More borrowing options can also benefit lenders. As demand to borrow these assets grows, supplied liquidity can be used more actively and lenders can earn variable interest from borrowing activity.

5 New Lending Vaults

5 new lending vaults have also been added to RUJI Money Market:

  • USDC.BSC

  • USDT.TRON

  • LUSD.ETH

  • USDT.AVAX

  • TRX

The TRX vault is available to lenders who want to supply TRX and earn variable interest from borrowing activity. TRX is also available as a borrow asset.

The 4 new stablecoin vaults have a different role. They provide liquidity that can be used by the Virtualization Strategy and are currently not planned as user-facing borrow markets.

Supporting More Markets Across Rujira

The new stablecoin vaults help support the infrastructure connecting RUJI Money Market, RUJI Trade, and THORChain's Base Layer liquidity.

The Virtualization Strategy can temporarily use liquidity from these vaults to fill orders on the Rujira App Layer. It then settles those trades through THORChain's Base Layer pools.

Supporting more assets gives the strategy additional routes into Base Layer liquidity. This can help RUJI Trade support more markets while generating additional trading activity across both layers.

Lending, Borrowing, and Public Liquidations

RUJI Money Market brings lenders, borrowers, and liquidators together in one open and transparent market.

Lenders supply assets and earn variable interest when their liquidity is borrowed. Borrowers deposit more collateral than they borrow, allowing them to access liquidity without selling the assets they already hold.

If a loan position becomes unsafe, enough collateral can be sold through an open liquidation market to repay part of the debt and return the account to a safer level. This helps protect lenders and supports the health of the market.

More Choice for Lenders and Borrowers

More collateral assets give borrowers greater flexibility when creating and managing credit accounts. More borrowable assets provide additional ways to access liquidity, while new lending vaults give supported markets more liquidity to work with.

Together, these additions expand the role of RUJI Money Market across the wider Rujira and THORChain ecosystem.
