Pendle’s TN argues that "DeFi is Dead" is a retail hallucination. He says that in reality, we are entering a "Stringent Due Diligence" era where institutional capital is finally separating resilient protocols from the casualties. https://t.co/Pe7v4VXfQ8

One thing people often miss about @pendle_fi is how deep the liquidity actually runs. These fixed yields are being quoted at institutional trade sizes, not small retail swaps. For example: 📍 PT-apxUSD ~13.35% fixed on a $5M swap. 📍 PT-apyUSD ~11.15% on $4.5M. 📍 PT-reUSD ~8.00% on $5M. When you start looking at numbers at this scale, you realize the system is designed for serious capital, not just yield farmers moving small amounts.

Last week, @tn_pendle met with Vietnam's Deputy Prime Minister in New York, alongside Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley, BlackRock, Franklin Templeton, and Anchorage Digital, to make the case for Vietnam's International Financial Center. Among a delegation of global financial giants, our dearest beloved TN Lee was the voice for asset tokenization, speaking to Vietnam's potential as a market for tokenized bonds, ETFs, and private credit, and championing the depth of talent the country has to offer. It's part of a sustained push by Vietnam's leadership to build serious financial infrastructure. The brightest days for Vietnam in DeFi are still to come, and Pendle is proud to be part of this journey.

Pendle currently offers the highest fixed yields in DeFi, with liquidity deep enough to absorb $100M in a single swap, something you'd typically only expect from a centralized exchange. These are the Effective Fixed APYs you lock in today, after price impact and fees, at institutional trade sizes: • PT-apxUSD → 13.35% fixed on a $5M swap • PT-apyUSD → 11.15% fixed on a $4.5M swap • PT-reUSD → 8.00% fixed on a $5M swap • PT-sNUSD → 7.72% fixed on a $20M swap • PT-USDG → 5.00% fixed on a $10M swap • PT-sUSDe → 3.51% fixed on a $100M swap
