### A Missing Link in DeFi – \$TREE

From a futures market design standpoint, Treehouse’s fixed income primitives aren’t the final destination — they’re the **foundation for something bigger:** an **on-chain interest rate futures market.**

### Unlocking Advanced Hedging

Treehouse’s fixed rates across maturities (e.g., 3-month, 6-month) can act as benchmarks for futures contracts. This enables protocols earning variable lending rates to hedge against volatility. For example: by shorting an interest rate future, a protocol could lock in a guaranteed yield for the next quarter, ensuring predictable cash flows.

The creation of such a market — made possible by @TreehouseOfficial’s groundwork — would mark a **major step forward in DeFi’s financial sophistication**, opening doors to advanced risk management and planning.
