Ion Protocol is an open-source protocol built to support the lending and borrowing of staked and restaked assets on Ethereum. Enjoy lending architecture built specifically for this asset class meant to enable stakers and restakers alike to experience additional capital efficiency while mitigating exposure to price-dependent risk underwriting.
Ion Protocol and its interface were developed by Molecular Labs.
Restaking (orginating from EigenLayer) is the act of using previously staked Ethereum (via validators directly or by depositing LSTs) to secure other networks while itโs validating Ethereum. Restaking allows external infrastructure projects to โrentโ security from Ethereum, decreasing the cost of bootstrapping their own validator set while improving decentralization and economic security. Restakers then opt into additional slashing conditions based on the networks that they are securing, and earn additional income as a byproduct of doing so.
Enter into our application with any supported asset on our market (ETH, LSTs, Restaking positions, etc.) and find the page for the action youโre looking to take (Borrow or Lend). Once youโre on the page, select the asset that you wish to deposit and each page will guide you through a simple workflow to facilitate your borrow or lend-based position. See below for more information about the products that Ion natively offers.
Ion offers three core products. Earn, which allows users to compound their staking yield through looped borrowing. Borrow, which allows holders of staked and restaked assets to borrow ETH. And Lend, allowing ETH holders to earn passive yield from the staking rate while underwriting the slashing risk
