How EQTY earns
EQTY plans to earn from use, not from emissions. Four fee streams are planned:
- Reserve factor: 15% of the interest borrowers pay.
- Borrow fee: 0.5% once on each new USDC loan.
- Liquidation share: 10% of each liquidation bonus.
- Swap interface fee: 0.2% on swaps made inside EQTY.
The first three switch on with EQTY lending, the last with the EQTY swap interface. Details are in Fees and rates.

No tier raises max LTV: holding the token makes loans cheaper, never riskier for lenders.
The Safety Module. Staked $EQTY backs lenders. If a liquidation leaves bad debt, up to 30% of each stake can be used to cover it. Stakers are paid for that risk with their share of protocol revenue. This is not a dividend and gives no claim on EQTY or its profits.
Points (Season 0, planned)
Before $EQTY launches, a points programme is planned for people who hold wrapped xStocks on Elysium, provide liquidity in xStock pools on Volta and, once lending opens, supply or borrow. Points are planned to count toward the launch allocation.
