Atlendis, welcomes its first AA institutional borrower, Wintermut, a leading global algorithmic market maker in digital assets.
Atlendis, the capital-efficient DeFi credit protocol that enables institutional crypto loans without collateral, has announced the opening of a borrower pool for Wintermute, a leading global algorithmic market maker in digital assets.
Following the launch of Atlendis, Wintermute is the first institutional borrower on the Atlendis protocol with a credit scoring of AA. Wintermute has opened its first revolving line of credit on Atlendis with an initial credit limit of 10 million USDC.
“These past few weeks have been a rollercoaster and an unprecedented supercycle. Now more than ever, users want transparency, custody of their assets, and access to more sustainable sources of yield. Being able to directly lend to recognized institutional actors such as Wintermute with an AA credit score is an amazing opportunity for lenders to diversify their portfolios and risk exposure,” said Alexis Masseron, Co-Founder and CEO of Atlendis Labs.
“One of the most important outcomes of recent weeks has been the further confirmation of use cases for protocols such as Atlendis. Decentralized uncollateralized loan protocols provide one thing that centralized lenders don’t, and that is full transparency. After undergoing a decentralized whitelisting process, Wintermute will tap into Atlendis’ liquidity pool that provides flexible and competitive borrowing terms,” said Evgeny Gaevoy, Co-Founder and CEO of Wintermute.
Benefits for Wintermute on Atlendis
On Atlendis, Wintermute will have access to efficient capital without collateral. Atlendis’ features allow for a fair interest rate discovery that reflects the market assessment of Wintermute’s creditworthiness. Atlendis is a flexible and powerful tool that allows borrowers to receive instant liquidity when they need it to meet their recurring needs.

Wintermute will offer liquidity rewards to their pool, boosting passive APY earned by lenders while waiting for Wintermute to use their credit line on Atlendis.
Atlendis aims to continue to onboard the best AA actors onto the Atlendis protocol and to address new use cases for uncollateralized lending. Capital-efficient credit protocols are essential to the overall DeFi ecosystem and there is a growing pipeline of borrowers including leading crypto and TradFi institutions that should be opening pools on Atlendis soon.
