RWAs Are the Missing Collateral Layer in DeFi Lending | Jonathan Han, Euler Labs — S2 E6
DeFi lending has always run on crypto-native collateral. Jonathan Han, CEO of Euler Labs, argues that's a structural problem — correlated assets move together in a downturn, creating cascading liquidations. RWAs fix that by providing a critical layer of diversification.<br /><br />Recorded live at the RWA Summit in Cannes for Season 2 of DeFi Drip, Adam Bawi, Director of BD at Centrifuge, sits down with Jonathan to break down Euler's modular vault architecture, the deSPXA integration, and why building a transparent risk framework for RWA collateral is the most important challenge in DeFi lending right now.<br /><br />IN THIS EPISODE 👇<ul><li>Euler's comeback: from a $200M hack to $4B in deposits</li><li>Modular vs monolithic vault architecture — and why modularity wins for institutions</li><li>How Kraken Earn built on Euler and hit $100M in deposits in months</li><li>deSPXA live on Euler: the first tokenized licensed S&P 500 as collateral</li><li>Why RWAs provide the non-correlated diversification DeFi lending needs</li><li>Looping strategies for shorter duration RWA assets — what's coming</li><li>The next collateral categories: tokenized commodities, gold, and yield-bearing stablecoins</li><li>Why risk frameworks are the most important unsolved problem in RWA lending</li></ul><br /><a href="https://centrifuge.io/blog/despxa-on-base" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a>STAY CONNECTED WITH CENTRIFUGE<ul><li>Website → <a href="https://centrifuge.io" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://centrifuge.io</a></li><li>Blog → <a href="https://centrifuge.io/blog" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://centrifuge.io/blog</a></li><li>X (Twitter) → <a href="https://x.com/centrifuge" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://x.com/centrifuge</a></li><li>LinkedIn → <a href="https://linkedin.com/company/centrifugehq" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://linkedin.com/company/centrifugehq</a></li><li>Newsletter → <a href="https://share.hsforms.com/19j_mbuUsTiyf84HcIsndswnup3o" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://share.hsforms.com/19j_mbuUsTiyf84HcIsndswnup3o</a></li></ul>

Vaults to Power Every Financial Product Onchain | J. Offerijns & F. Gartenmeister, Centrifuge — S2E5
Vaults started as a yield product for DeFi users. Jeroen Offerijns, CTO at Centrifuge Labs, and Frederik Gartenmeister, Head of Product at Centrifuge Labs, argue they're becoming the core primitive that enables any financial product — funds, ETFs, securitizations — to run natively onchain.<br /><br />Recorded live at the RWA Summit in Cannes for Season 2 of DeFi Drip, Mariia Yatsenko, Head of Marketing at Centrifuge Labs, sits down with Jeroen and Frederik to break down institutional vaults: what makes them different from standard DeFi vaults, why asynchronous execution is a feature not a bug, and what the road from tokenization to native onchain origination actually looks like.<br /><br />IN THIS EPISODE 👇<br /><ul><li>Why vaults are becoming the core primitive for onchain finance — not just yield products</li><li>What "institutional" means in the context of vault infrastructure</li><li>Why asynchronous execution is a safeguard, not a limitation</li><li>Onchain PM: managing one portfolio across multiple chains</li><li>Accounting tokens: how Centrifuge solves the settlement phase problem</li><li>The three stages of onchain finance: tokenization, onchain asset management, native origination</li><li>What higher risk-adjusted yields look like when RWAs and DeFi assets are combined in one vault </li></ul>LEARN MORE LEARN MORE<br />Dive deeper into institutional vaults with Centrifuge's technical series:<br /><ul><li>Centrifuge Expands Its Institutional Vault Stack with the Onchain Portfolio Manager → <a href="https://centrifuge.io/blog/onchain-pm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://centrifuge.io/blog/onchain-pm</a></li><li>The Evolution of the Onchain Capital Stack → <a href="https://centrifuge.io/blog/from-tokenization-to-vaults-onchain-capital-stack" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://centrifuge.io/blog/from-tokenization-to-vaults-onchain-capital-stack</a></li><li>Beyond Instant Settlement: The Standard for Asynchronous Vaults → <a href="https://centrifuge.io/blog/asynchronous-vaults" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://centrifuge.io/blog/asynchronous-vaults</a></li><li>The Programmable Vault Stack: Customize Behavior Without Rewriting the Core → <a href="https://centrifuge.io/blog/the-programmable-vault-stack" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://centrifuge.io/blog/the-programmable-vault-stack</a></li></ul><br />STAY CONNECTED WITH CENTRIFUGE<br /><ul><li>Website → <a href="https://centrifuge.io" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://centrifuge.io </a></li><li>Blog → <a href="https://centrifuge.io/blog" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://centrifuge.io/blog </a></li><li>X (Twitter) → <a href="https://x.com/centrifuge" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://x.com/centrifuge </a></li><li>LinkedIn → <a href="https://linkedin.com/company/centrifugehq" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://linkedin.com/company/centrifugehq </a></li><li>Newsletter → <a href="https://share.hsforms.com/19j_mbuUsTiyf84HcIsndswnup3o" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://share.hsforms.com/19j_mbuUsTiyf84HcIsndswnup3o</a></li></ul><br />
