A bank does not write a thirty-year mortgage, fund it once with matched thirty-year debt, and forget it.
The rate the borrower pays is fixed. Everything beneath that rate stays in motion. Short-term paper rolled against long bonds, deposits repriced, positions hedged and re-hedged continuously to hold the cost of carrying that loan as low as it will go.
GOFR is a great example of active liability management. Galaxy sources across lending markets and hands the client a single optimized rate.
IRIS points the same machinery at a different target.
A solver does the same continuous cross-venue work but the number you hold is the one you set: fixed, at origination. The variability doesn't reach you. It stays with the solver, who took the job by winning your quote.
Introducing GOFR: the Galaxy Onchain Financing Rate.
Institutions can now access onchain credit by facing Galaxy directly instead of DeFi protocols, borrowing at a single optimized rate blended across Aave, Morpho, Spark, Kamino, and more.
No wallets. No private keys. No smart contracts. Galaxy sources, executes, and services every position, backed by up to $100M of our own capital as first-loss protection, subject to applicable terms and conditions.
