Introduction & Background
We would like to share monthly performance updates on our Liquidity Pool, as Credix excitedly awaits beginning the risk assessment phase with @Steakhouse to implement our proposal to collateralize VAI with $20M of Real World Assets.
For a TL;DR background, Credix proposed establishing a partnership whereby Venus will deploy $20 million in the Credix Liquidity Pool, a basket of senior-secured structured debt facilities issued to FinTech lenders in key Latin American markets with a targeted 12.0% APY. The proposal was posted on March 28th with Steakhouse approved to begin a risk assessment via Snapshot on April 25th. In this interim time as Steakhouse and Venus finalize other initiatives before pivoting to Credix, we will endeavor to keep the Community informed of our key updates.

Feature release! Until recently, we were only able to bring new credit facilities on-chain. We got the feedback that funds would be keen to bring their existing facilities on-chain because of operational efficiencies and distribution options it creates. And that’s exactly what this release is all about. With the latest platform upgrade, funds can now tokenize their existing credit deals, increasing the scalability of their business and tapping into a wider pool of potential investors.
