Overview

Pendle Finance

Pendle Finance is a yield-trading protocol that tokenizes future yield, allowing users to trade, hedge, and speculate on yield movements. By wrapping yield-bearing assets into Principal Tokens (PT) and Yield Tokens (YT), Pendle enables fixed-rate borrowing through PT purchases and leveraged yield exposure through YT. As HyperEVM generates its own yield-bearing primitives—from liquid staking (stHYPE, LHYPE) to lending receipts—Pendle creates a yield marketplace where Hyperliquid users can lock in fixed returns or maximize yield exposure. Pendle's specialized AMM is calibrated for yield curves, minimizing impermanent loss for LPs while offering attractive fee income. The protocol has amassed billions in TVL on Ethereum and Arbitrum, and its expansion to HyperEVM brings sophisticated fixed-income tools to the Hyperliquid DeFi stack. For yield-seeking Hyperliquid participants, Pendle offers the ability to convert uncertain variable yields into predictable fixed returns.
