⌠ Takara connects Programmability credit to the payment track, making encryption as natural as swiping a card ⌡

​
@SeiNetwork has officially entered a period of rapid growth this year. Whether you are a secondary market trader or a researcher on the blockchain, it is not difficult to see that it is significantly stronger than its public chain counterparts, showing outstanding performance. After the native USDC went live, daily active users and stablecoin usage have also risen simultaneously, creating a solid foundation for payment and settlement applications.
​
If you are also looking for a way to pay and settle without selling tokens, it is definitely worth understanding the very special protocol @TakaraLend. Starting with the simplest stablecoin cycle, understand how Takara connects earnings and credit to real expenditures, making on-chain consumption to subsequent card swiping very natural.
​
Most protocols are still bound by the most basic interest rates and collateral ratios. Takara has already laid out the next step. Their essence is not to create another lending market, but to connect the so-called "Programmability credit" to payment scenarios, allowing credit to become a callable network asset, opening APIs to connect wallets and merchant channels, so that assets can be directly processed and settled through card swipes.
​
Takara adopts a dual-layer system, with the front end being Takara Lend, which aggregates user, revenue, and credit demands. The back end is an API infrastructure that allows wallets, cards, and merchants to programmatically dispatch and settle quotas. Users can directly use the lending system for payments without needing to sell coins for recharge first, allowing them to maintain positions and enhance the efficiency of capital utilization.
​
A more straightforward metaphor is that Takara wants to become the Visa of the encryption world, providing a credit layer that can be used by wallets, cards, and merchants, allowing encryption to no longer be limited to investment but to be truly usable.
​
In addition, their current accumulated TVL is about 140m USD over five months, and the total revenue has reached 710k. The team has previously built products with over 250m TVL, proving that the scenario can indeed be implemented.

💎 Currently feasible financial strategies
​
I generally recommend that if you are going to play with lending agreements, first run a round of stablecoin circulation with a small position to familiarize yourself with the rules and risks of the health factor and borrowing limit. Then, based on your familiarity, gradually advance to LST or LP strategies, or just doing stablecoin circulation lending is sufficient.
​
▌ Stablecoin Cycle Iteration (25% ~ 30% Annualized)
1. Supply $USDT (it's great with all the various activities stacking up now)
2. Lend $USDC and deposit back
3. Repeat the cycle within the allowed health coefficient and loan limit.
​
▌ LST Arbitrage Stacking (15% ~ 20% Annualized)
1. Supply $USDT or $USDC
2. Lend $SEI and convert it to $spSEI in Splashing
3. Deposit $spSEI back to Takara (can simultaneously earn staking rewards)
​
▌ LP Liquidity Play (Advanced Play)
1. Supply $USDT or $USDC
2. Lend $SEI and $spSEI
3. Go to @YakaFinance to provide LP for $SEI / $spSEI
​
In addition, their borrowing fee is 0%! There is no deduction of principal interest, so you don't need to worry about that.

💎 Why might this narrative be valid?
​
The front-end capital pool provides returns and quotas, while the back-end API outputs the quotas to payments and merchants, forming a closed loop of revenue, credit, and expenditure. Additionally, the ecosystem is clearly strengthening this narrative, with native USDC and native cross-chain landing, greatly reducing the friction costs of stablecoins and on-chain entry and exit risks (the points most important to institutions and Web2). Therefore, it is starting to be suitable for payment and settlement applications. Furthermore, thanks to the architecture of Sei, the basic performance is very adequate, and the high throughput capability lowers the user experience threshold, paving the way for daily consumer-grade scenarios.
​
If you are also looking for a way to pay and settle without selling coins, start with the simplest stablecoin cycle and understand how Takara connects earnings and credit to real spending. Then you will soon be able to enjoy the super comfortable experience of high-yield savings + interest covering daily expenses! Additionally, they currently have the Karats points activity, and the future of points should be quite promising! Take advantage of this opportunity and start early!
