Relend x Kadena – Bringing DeFi liquidity to Proof of Work

1/
Most DeFi ecosystems start with a problem:
They launch without liquidity.

That’s not the case for #Kadena.
Thanks to @relend_network, money markets on Chainweb EVM are being born with capital from day one.
Here’s how it works👇

2/
 💵 What is Relend?

Relend is a protocol that enables curators to lend USDC from Ethereum into new blockchains through a system of reflected assets.

The result:
You deposit native $USDC on Ethereum
→ receive rUSDC on Kadena
→ use that #rUSDC as native liquidity in money markets.

3/
💡 Why is this a big deal?

Launching a DeFi ecosystem from scratch is hard.
No capital = no lending. No lending = no borrowing. No borrowing = no yield.

Relend fixes that by bootstrapping liquidity using capital that already exists just redirected into #ChainwebEVM.

4/
🔗 How does it connect Ethereum to Kadena?

Through a curated mechanism that ensures 1:1 backing of rUSDC with USDC held in custody on Ethereum.

This means:

✅ Liquidity is real
✅ Fully verifiable
✅ Native to @kadena_io
✅ Available immediately

5/
⚙️ What is rUSDC useful for?

Once issued on Kadena, rUSDC acts as a stablecoin for:

– Lending / Borrowing
– Yield farming
– Liquidity pools
– Collateral in money markets

In short: it fuels DeFi over PoW.

6/
🔥 Why is this important for Kadena?

Because DeFi needs more than just technology.
It needs usable capital.

Relend brings:

– Capital efficiency
– Cross-chain adoption
– Real stablecoin activity
– An economic bridge between ecosystems

7/
🛠️ Why Kadena?

Because Kadena offers something no one else does:

– Scalable Proof of Work (PoW)
– Chainweb parallel chains
– Human-readable smart contracts (Pact)
– Gas abstraction via gas stations
– Now EVM compatibility

Relend saw the vision and is moving early.

8/
💬 Final thought:

This is more than a stablecoin bridge.
It’s a signal.

Kadena’s DeFi era is starting with the foundation others only wish they had: real capital + real infrastructure.
