There was no clear, reliable way to track interest rates like traditional finance does with LIBOR or SOFR.
Instead, DeFi rates are all over the place scattered, unstable, and often controlled by single protocols.
That makes it really hard to build stable, trustworthy financial products.
@Treehouse Official is stepping in to change that.
They’ve built two simple but powerful tools:
🔹 tAssets Liquid staking tokens that do more than just earn rewards. They also tap into extra yield through interest rate arbitrage.
It’s like staking + smart yield farming in one.
🔹 DOR (Decentralized Offered Rates) A fully on-chain benchmark interest rate.
Think of it as DeFi’s version of LIBOR only transparent, decentralized, and built for Web3.
These tools work together to bring structure and reliability to DeFi:
→ Developers get clean, dependable rate data
→ Investors get better yield opportunities
→ The whole market gets a real foundation for fixed income in crypto
All of it is powered by the $TREE token—used to pay for rate data, secure the system, reward contributors, and drive governance.
Treehouse isn’t just creating better yield options.
They’re building the missing pieces DeFi needs to grow reliable, open, and designed for everyone.
