Launch DOLA Market on Compound v3 on Base

Summary

We, Inverse Finance, propose the addition of a DOLA market to Compound V3 on Base

Motivation

DOLA today is the #2 stablecoin by TVL ($49MM) on Base and Inverse Finance holds the #2 veNFT position on Aerodrome Finance where DOLA enjoys deep liquidity. We are keen to build on this success and seek a top-tier variable rate lending partner like Compound Finance as Inverse’s focus internally is now fixed rate lending.

Proposed Collateral

We propose adding the following as a borrow-only asset for the market

  • DOLA, with Collateral Factor = 0%

About Inverse Finance

Inverse Finance is an on-chain decentralized autonomous organization that develops and manages a suite of permissionless and decentralized financial products using blockchain smart contract technology. Originally founded by Nour Haridy in late 2020, the protocol is now governed by Inverse Finance DAO, a collective of crypto enthusiasts.

Inverse Finance’s main products are:

  • FiRM, a fixed-rate lending market
  • DOLA, a stablecoin pegged to the US Dollar
  • sDOLA, yield-bearing version of the DOLA stablecoin
  • DBR, a new DeFi primitive that enables holders to service a DOLA loan on FiRM.

DOLA is a debt-backed USD stablecoin which is added into and removed from circulation;

  • On the supply side of money markets, such as the DAO-owned protocol FiRM, by Inverse Finance’s “Fed” contracts and then made available to be borrowed through over-collateralized loans.
  • Via injection/contractions into pools such as the Curve DOLA/FraxBP (currently $15M TVL), DOLA/USDC on Velodrome ($425k TVL), DOLA/USDC on Balancer ($2.1m TVL on ETH, $1.7m TVL on Arbitrum) and DOLA/USDbC on Aerodrome ($59.2m TVL).

DOLA is not “algorithmic” and the INV governance token is not used to mint or redeem DOLA.
