Problem
Liquidity providers in DeFi lending pools often face risks associated with impermanent loss and vulnerabilities present in general-purpose lending protocols. Market makers and solvers also encounter fragmented access to DeFi order flow and private market makers, requiring multiple integrations.
Solution
Liquorice is a DeFi protocol that unifies access to major trading platforms and private market makers through a single API, while providing collateralized loans to select trading firms. This approach minimizes risks for liquidity providers by granting access only to vetted borrowers and securing capital through overcollateralization. Liquidity providers supply capital on a per-asset basis, eliminating impermanent loss. Market makers gain unified access to DeFi order flow from platforms like CoW Swap, Uniswap X, and 1inch Fusion. Solvers benefit from a single point of access to multiple private market makers, with Liquorice's off-chain service collecting and selecting the best quotes.
Target Audience
Liquorice targets DeFi liquidity providers seeking secure and impermanent loss-free lending opportunities, as well as market makers and solvers aiming for streamlined access to DeFi order flow and private market makers.
