Pendle Plans Expansion to Solana, Hyperliquid, and Ton in 2025

Decentralized finance (DeFi) continues to evolve, with protocols like Pendle leveraging the current market dynamics. Key points include:

  • Pendle's growth in 2024 saw total value locked (TVL) reach $4.4 billion and daily trading volumes at $96 million.
  • Pendle offers two main products: Principal Tokens (PT) for fixed yield and Yield Tokens (YT) for farming potential airdrops.
  • The protocol has become a significant token launchpad, evidenced by over $1 billion in TVL during Berachain's airdrop anticipation.

Pendle's 2025 Plans

  • Upcoming upgrades include dynamic fees for yield trading and enhancements to the vePENDLE token bribe system.
  • A focus on perpetual funding rates will allow traders to engage in yield trading on these rates.
  • Pendle plans expansion to non-EVM chains like Solana and Hyperliquid.
  • Targeting regulated entities and Islamic funds with KYC-compliant products to access crypto yields.

Pendle aims to disrupt traditional finance by offering higher yields than conventional bonds, expanding its addressable market beyond Ethereum's yield markets.
