According to The Block, the Paradigm-supported protocol Symbiotic has officially launched Symbiotic Core V2, transforming from a restaking protocol into infrastructure aimed at the DeFi collateral market.Core V2 allows various applications such as insurance, credit, and RWA to share a single collateral pool, with each vault able to independently set risk parameters, asset types, positions, and loss conditions, enforced on-chain. Idle funds can be automatically routed to blue-chip lending protocols like Aave and Morpho to earn base yields, and can be called upon when performance is required.The first product based on Core V2, Liquid Lane, has been used for RWA instant settlement, supporting the early redemption of various tokenized assets for stablecoins; Nexus Mutual plans to use it as reinsurance capacity, while Cap is used to expand institutional credit guarantees.Symbiotic has previously completed approximately $29 million in Series A funding and $5.8 million in seed funding.

XRPLRipple is actively promoting the addition of a layer of lending infrastructure on the XRP Ledger (XRPL), enabling institutions to use on-chain tokenized assets as collateral for financing, while the loan terms are automatically executed by the protocol, with credit assessments and lending decisions still made by off-chain institutions.According to reports, the proposal is named the XRPL Lending Protocol (corresponding to the XLS-65 and XLS-66 standards), which is currently still in the technical draft stage and must be approved through validator voting before it can go live on the mainnet, but it is already available for developer testing on the test network.The design of the protocol splits the lending process into two parts: on-chain mechanisms responsible for fund pool management, interest calculation, repayment execution, and default handling; while borrower credit assessments and loan term settings remain with traditional financial institutions to meet compliance requirements in different jurisdictions.Ripple states that this mechanism is primarily aimed at institutional short-term liquidity needs, such as in cross-border payment scenarios, where temporary financing is obtained through stablecoins or collateralized assets before settlement, to enhance capital efficiency.Analysts believe that this solution attempts to introduce a "rule-based lending infrastructure" similar to traditional finance while maintaining the open network attributes of XRPL, but it still faces competition from established on-chain lending protocols like Aave, Compound, and Maple.
