🌱 How It Started


I’m in crypto, and I kept running into the same problem — yields are confusing.


In traditional finance, banks use things like LIBOR or SOFR. But in DeFi? There was nothing.


So a small team built Treehouse — to create that missing benchmark for our world.


🏗️ Building the Roots


Treehouse built something called DOR. Think of it like a scoreboard. Experts — they're called panelists — send in their rate estimates. The system checks them. If they're accurate, they earn. If not, they lose.


From that, Treehouse gave us:


TESR → staking rate for Ethereum

TELR → lending rate

TEBR → borrowing rate

Finally, DeFi got clear daily rates. Simple, trackable, and transparent.


🍃 The First Fruit – tETH


Then came tETH. It’s like ETH staking, but with more brains.


Instead of just staking and waiting, it loops — stake, lend, borrow, restake.


That loop squeezes more yield out of the same ETH.


Over 180 million dollars locked

Yields around 3.8% — higher than normal ETH staking

Works on Pendle (with 9%+ APY) and Compound (you can borrow against it)

And yes, it has insurance and peg protection to keep things steady and safe.


🌳 The TREE Token


TREE is the heartbeat of the system. It powers fees, governance, staking, and rewards.


There are 1 billion TREE in total. In July 2025, Binance airdropped 12.5 million TREE straight into user wallets. That’s how it spread fast and wide.


🌍 The Growth


Treehouse started on Ethereum. Then came Arbitrum. Now it’s growing to Solana, Avalanche, and BNB Chain too.


It raised funding at a 400 million dollar valuation — even brought in a major global insurance giant as a backer.


Today:


Over 30,000 wallets

120,000 ETH staked

Partners include Everstake, RockX, Kiln, QCP, and more

🔮 The Dream


Treehouse wants to become the LIBOR of crypto — the rate everyone watches.


DAOs, funds, traders — all using it as the foundation for loans, bonds, swaps, and beyond.


⚡ The Feeling


To me, Treehouse isn’t just another DeFi protocol. It feels alive.


The roots are the rates.

The fruit is tETH.

The branches are cross-chain expansion.


And the vision? To grow into the tree of DeFi income.
