Votre - DeFi Borrowing Protocol
Built a liquidation-free crypto borrowing protocol enabling high-net-worth individuals to access liquidity against Bitcoin and crypto assets with institutional-grade security and tax optimization.
Project Overview
Votre is a DeFi borrowing protocol that enables high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and funds to access liquidity against their Bitcoin and crypto assets without the risk of forced liquidations. Built with institutional-grade security, Votre offers a safer, tax-optimized alternative to traditional margin lending.
Zenkai built the web application from inception to public beta, implementing the frontend infrastructure that connects users to Votre's innovative DeFi protocol. The platform uses innovative hedging mechanisms to eliminate liquidation risk while providing higher loan-to-value ratios and competitive interest rates.
Backed by leading crypto investors including a16z crypto, MaC Ventures, and Druid Ventures, Votre represents a new standard in crypto-backed lending where borrowers maintain control and security over their wealth.
