ARROW MAINNET GOES LIVE TOMORROW, MONDAY 8/31 AT 9:30 AM ET. 🏹
After completing the final review process with
@sherlockdefi, Arrow is ready for mainnet.
Huge thank you to the Sherlock team for their diligence throughout the review, and to our community for their patience.
At launch, Arrow will support 16 collateral markets across stablecoins, WETH, tokenized equities and indices.
Initial max LTVs will range from 75% to 90%, with most non-stable collateral launching in a narrow 75–80% range. The protocol will initially support approximately $1.6M of aggregate aUSD borrow capacity across all markets.
These are starting parameters. We’ll continue refining caps, collateral support and risk settings based on early adoption, TVL and how people actually use the protocol.
Our long-term goal is to build the Robinhood Chain-native lending infrastructure that makes RWAs financeable and helps turn tokenized assets from things people simply own into productive financial assets.
That requires more than putting assets onchain. It requires the financial infrastructure around them to evolve too.
Because Arrow launches with tokenized equities and indices as collateral, reliable pricing for those assets is critical. For now, equity and index collateral will operate during regular U.S. market hours, from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM ET on normal trading days, to ensure dependable oracle pricing and protect against manipulation in thinner onchain markets.
This constraint does not apply to WETH or stablecoin collateral, and we view the current limitations that as a starting condition, not the end state.
The promise of tokenization is ultimately bigger: global markets with deeper onchain liquidity, better infrastructure and fewer of the limitations inherited from traditional finance. As those markets mature, we expect Arrow to evolve with them.
Borrowing, liquidity and leverage are foundational pieces of that economy, and we intend to build the infrastructure that helps make it possible.
From here, we’ll continue iterating on Arrow, expanding the universe of assets the protocol can support and exploring new categories of onchain collateral beyond traditional financial assets.
We’ll also be sharing more about the team, organization and structure behind Arrow, as well as announcing several new partners who will help support the protocol’s next phase of growth.
See you at the open. 💪
