Overview

Treehouse isn’t just another DeFi protocol—it’s the backbone of fixed-income on Ethereum.

• By merging liquid staking (tAssets) with a decentralized benchmark rate system (DOR), it tackles fragmented interest rates head-on. Stake ETH (or other tokens), get a yield-collecting tAsset like tETH, and lean on DOR—the on-chain equivalent of LIBOR—for dependable rate standards.

• It's about turning volatile yields into trust-backed, composable financial rails.

Core Offerings

• tAssets (e.g., tETH) – Liquid tokens that automatically arbitrage staking and lending yields, blending simplicity with smart returns.

• DOR (Decentralized Offered Rates) – A transparent, on-chain reference rate system built by trusted panelists who stake, submit forecasts, and get rewarded or penalized by performance.

• TREE Token Utility – Powers governance, DOR participation, data access, and rewards. Everything that sustains Treehouse’s infrastructure runs on TREE.

Technical Edge

• Yield Unification – tAssets merge fragmented ETH yields into a unified, efficient market, making yield generation simpler and more cost-effective.

• Benchmark Clarity – DOR provides transparent, programmable rate curves like TESR (Ethereum Staking Rate) in real time—essential for pricing structured products.

• Complete Transparency – Everything from rate inputs to stash flow and rewards is recorded on-chain for visibility and auditability.

Innovations & Funding

• $400M Protocol Valuation + Major Backers – A testament to confidence in Treehouse’s vision and infrastructure.

• Robust Ecosystem with $320M TVL & Vault Activity – From tAssets across Ethereum and LSTs to integrations with leaders like Lido, RockX, Staking Rewards.

• Incentivized Growth via TREE – Pre-Deposit Vaults offer attractive APR (50–75%) in TREE to bootstrap DOR engagement; wisely structured with long vesting for stability.

Why It Matters

• Treehouse bridges DeFi’s innovator past with its structured-finance future. It offers:

• Composability — Developers can build forward-rate swaps, fixed coupons, or insurance products on transparent, on-chain rates.

• Security & Sustainability — Audits, vesting, and transparent governance align long-term incentives.

• Institutions & Individuals Alike — This is not just yield farming—it’s building infrastructure for DeFi’s mainstream wave.
