[Project Interpretation] Tren Finance: The first AI-driven stablecoin lending protocol on the entire chain.
Tren Finance is a stablecoin lending protocol fully autonomously managed by AI, with the core goal of redefining the lending logic of DeFi through a set of smart agent systems that require no human governance intervention.
This protocol is doing something very cool but also very serious:
👉 Allow any asset on the chain to borrow liquidity, including LPs, yield certificates, NFTs, and even tokens that have not yet been unlocked;
👉 Real-time adjustment of risk parameters to eliminate the issues of human intervention delays in traditional protocols;
👉 Fully automated, operating around the clock, with 0 governance delay and 0 proposal process, the lending system runs autonomously like an operating system.
01|Why is Tren different?
❌ The Dilemma of Traditional DeFi Lending
The lending systems of major protocols like Aave and Compound actually have a few "old issues":
• The range of asset support is narrow, and many assets cannot be used as collateral;
•Parameter adjustments rely on governance votes, with a slow update cycle;
•Once there is a sharp fluctuation, bad debts or large-scale liquidations can easily occur.
In the current DeFi space with over 8 billion dollars locked, less than 30% of the assets can actually be used for collateral lending. A large number of LPs, yield certificates, and NFTs are all in a "sleeping state."
02|Core Innovation of Tren: Peer-to-Agent Lending Model
Tren has abandoned the variable of "human" and introduced AI intelligent agents:
Users no longer make requests to the protocol and wait for governance approval, but interact directly with the AI agent, which evaluates, disburses loans, and collects interest.
This mechanism called Peer-to-Agent is being implemented on-chain for the first time:
•User submits assets;
•AI evaluates asset value, volatility, and borrower on-chain reputation in real-time;
•If approved, disburse immediately;
•If the risk is too great, refuse to execute.
The currently featured AI agent "Malone" has already achieved the recognition and lending of "non-standard assets" such as NFTs, LPs, and locked assets. It is also the first intelligent agent with an independent wallet that can autonomously issue transactions.
03|stablecoin $XY: The True All-Chain Native Debt Asset
The native stablecoin $XY of Tren is a debt token issued through collateralized asset borrowing (CDP model), which has:
•Over-collateralization guarantee;
•LayerZero's OFT standard construction, native cross-chain transfer across the entire chain;
•Instead of relying on a "1:1 redemption" mechanism, it stabilizes the peg through dynamic liquidity management;
• Can obtain profits through various methods such as mining, providing liquidity, and staking in insurance pools.
04|AI Agent System: Automatic Adjustment + Multi-Point Collaboration
Currently, Tren has launched over 20 independent smart agent modules, covering:
•Interest Rate Adjustment (Interest Optimizer)
•Liquidation Predictor
•Collateral Manager
•Risk Pricing (Risk Analyzer)
•Automated Arbitrage (Arb Seeker)
These AIs will:
•Automatically adjust stablecoin fees during market volatility;
•Detect real liquidability of collateral to prevent bad debts;
•Real-time liquidation of invalid collateral to protect system stability;
• Use 90% of all income from the protocol to buy back TREN coins.
05|Why is the TREN coin worth paying attention to?
TREN is the core value-bearing tool of the entire protocol, using the veToken locking model:
•90% of all revenue will be used for TREN buyback + burn or dividends (decided by veTREN voting);
•All income generated from all agency activities (minting/arbitrage/liquidation) flows back to TREN;
• No additional token issuance, clear deflationary structure;
•The longer the lock-up period, the higher the veTREN weight, and the more rewards you will receive.
Currently, the fully diluted valuation of $TREN is only about $10M FDV, which is 6 to 13 times lower compared to HeyAnon ($69M) and Wayfinder ($131M), but its technological maturity and system complexity are far greater than those two.
06 | Market Space and Business Model
Market of Services:
Over $20B of underutilized asset types (NFTs, LPs, yield notes, locked assets, etc.)
Profit Model:
•Minting fees, interest income, liquidation arbitrage
•Flash loan fee
•B2B Risk Management API Authorization Fee
•Hooks automatic execution strategy call fee
•Cross-chain transaction fee
These revenues will constitute the buyback pool for TREN, providing a continuous accumulation of value for long-term holders.
07 | Team and Development Progress
•Core members come from protocols such as MakerDAO, Ajna, Wirex, Binance, etc.;
• Audits completed for multiple companies including Omniscia and Halborn;
• Strategic cooperation with Mode, Gamma, Turtle Club, etc.;
•Echo fundraising round completed, selected for Redstone 25 under 25;
•The total value of community user assets has now exceeded $50M (tracked by DeBank).
08 | In summary:
Tren Finance is using AI to take over protocol governance, completely transforming the lending logic of DeFi from "human governance" to "machine governance."
It is not just a new protocol, but a self-evolving financial infrastructure system. Behind every borrowing operation, there are AI agents operating at high frequency, assessing risks, adjusting parameters, automatically liquidating, and repurchasing coins.
The next paradigm of DeFi will be a world that is "Agent-native", and Tren is the first to step into it.
