Borrow, lend, access leveraged pools, with smart borrowing automation and dynamic LTV
Obelith is a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol that enables over-collateralized lending and borrowing within the Arbitrum ecosystem. The platform features leveraged pools and smart borrowing for both yield seekers and risk managers.
The goal was to create a seamless borrowing and lending experience without unnecessary steps, making complex actions like approving signatures, adjusting LTV, and managing positions feel effortless
Smart borrowing suggestions, quick guides, and a structured multi-tabbed interface
The main challenge was simplifying complex DeFi mechanics such as the LTV ratio, which is key to borrowing and position risk, as well as leveraged exposure and interaction-heavy flows like multi-step signature approvals and transactions.
The approval process includes 3 signature steps, clearly displayed with checkmarks to show progress and the number of approvals required in the user's wallet
Smart Borrowing allows users to streamline the borrowing process. By clicking the icon, they receive a suggested loan-to-value ratio based on market conditions and can auto-fill the borrowing details with a single click
