Stella Integrates Chainlink Price Feeds
Stella, a leveraged strategies protocol with a 0% borrowing cost, has integrated Chainlink Price Feeds on the Arbitrum mainnet. Stella has access to high-quality, tamper-proof price feeds essential to fuel lending and leveraged strategies by integrating the industry-leading decentralized oracle network. This would provide users greater comfort that DeFi plans are supported by tamper-proof market data.
Stella’s initial integration involves the use of the following Chainlink Price Feeds: ETH/USD, ARB/USD, USDT/USD, USDC/USD, and BTC/USD. They chose Chainlink because its infrastructure is seamless to integrate and time-tested in production.
Stella’s mission is to redefine how leveraged DeFi works. DeFi needs a good leverage system in order to drive more usage to DEXs and money markets, the fundamental building blocks of DeFi. With the growing usage of these fundamental primitives, new innovations and more protocols can arise and tap into the deep liquidity and robust foundation. Stella’s zero-cost borrow system and Pay-As-You-Earn model, for the first time, align incentives between borrowers and lenders, presenting a new and better way for leveraged DeFi — a way where one party does not lose when the other party gains.
In order to help secure DeFi strategies, Stella needed access to fresh asset prices that are supplied directly on-chain in a highly reliable manner. Fair market asset prices should reflect a volume-weighted average from all trading environments. Thus, it is best to make use of an oracle network to fetch aggregated price data off-chain and deliver it on-chain.
