Tectonic (Cronos)
Takes as collateral: bitcoin and ether
Dollar loans only: other currencies are separate books, never added in
Debt and rates count loans made in US dollars and dollar stablecoins. Loans in euros, francs, yen, ether or bitcoin itself are separate books, shown by currency on each venue, never added in.
- BTC collateral — the supplied amount of the venue's pegged-bitcoin reserves as each pool reports it — what is deposited, not what is pledged against a loan.
- Dollar debt against bitcoin — bitcoin-only borrowers only: $3m more is owed in dollars by 247 accounts posting bitcoin among other collateral, a bound never apportioned.
- Aggregate LTV — the bitcoin-only borrowers' LTV, not the pool's: accounts posting bitcoin among other collateral are not in it.
- Liquidates at — the bitcoin-only borrowers only (accounts posting other collateral are not in it); $42,126 of their debt sits in positions that liquidate within a 20% fall.
What “Liquidates at” is: one price for the whole book, not a forecast
"Liquidates at" is the bitcoin price at which this book, taken as one position, stops covering its debt at its liquidation thresholds — an aggregate, not a forecast: individual loans are levered differently and liquidate above it.
Loan duration is not a venue figure on an on-chain pool: these markets are open-term, and a position runs until it is repaid or liquidated. A fixed term exists only where the venue writes one — the custodial desks (cefi_credit_rates.term_days) and Gavel's auction, which is fixed-rate and fixed-term by construction.
10 of 10 criteria researched. What the criteria are →
Markets — as served, not a venue rate
One row per market, as the venue publishes them. These are market rates: combining them into a single venue rate is a weighting across this venue's markets, and choosing one here would be a methodology decision taken in a web page.
No BTC market rows are served for this venue. It runs contracts, so the absence is this dataset’s, not the venue’s.
Price
What does credit cost here, and how is the price formed?
| Rate formation | algorithmic_utilisationsourceTectonic on Cronos (chain 25) — each tToken names an interestRateModel() evaluated on cash, borrows and reserves: a function of utilisation, algorithmic_utilisation. The curve each model implements was not read. |
|---|---|
| Term structure | open_endedsourceTectonic tToken markets on Cronos (chain 25) — borrowing carries no maturity; a position persists until repaid or liquidated. |
| Rate certainty | variablesourceTectonic tToken markets on Cronos (chain 25) — each market accrues at the rate its interestRateModel() returns for the market's current cash, borrows and reserves; nothing is fixed at origination. |
Quality
What stands behind a position, and what can change under the reader?
| Oracle dependency | multiplesourceTectonic core 0xb3831584acb95ED9cCb0C11f677B5AD01DeaeEc0 on Cronos (chain 25) → oracle() = 0xD360D8cABc1b2e56eCf348BFF00D2Bd9F658754A (read 2026-09-30). One oracle contract prices every market, from a source per asset that the admin can replace. A pooled venue's solvency depends on the feeds of every market an account has entered, not on one. What each source is was not read. |
|---|---|
| Default & liquidation | thresholdsourceTectonic core 0xb3831584acb95ED9cCb0C11f677B5AD01DeaeEc0 on Cronos (chain 25) — an account can be liquidated once its borrow exceeds the sum of its collateral at each market's collateral factor (markets(token)); a liquidator repays up to the close factor (50%) of a borrow and seizes tToken collateral at the liquidation incentive (1.1). |
| Custody & backing | protocol_custodialsourceTectonic tToken markets on Cronos (chain 25) — supplying transfers the underlying to the market's own contract (getCash() is its balance); the depositor holds the tToken as a claim rather than the asset. The core's admin() is 0x9e3f42052337e2cF0C3748bCC732430Af3F53f72; what controls that address was not read. |
| Recourse | non_recoursesourceTectonic core 0xb3831584acb95ED9cCb0C11f677B5AD01DeaeEc0 on Cronos (chain 25) — liability is bounded by the collateral a liquidator can seize; no function pursues a borrower beyond it, and a shortfall stays in the market as bad debt. |
| Track record | 49 months observedsourceDerived from the first aggregator observation this dataset holds for the venue (defi_rates_llama, 2022-08-11; the registry holds no first_date for it). This is a LOWER BOUND on the venue's age, not the age itself: a venue trading long before the aggregator began listing it reads short here. The observer is the aggregator, not the venue's own contracts. Not typed, and not a claim about the venue's longevity. |
Composition
Who and what makes up this market?
| Collateral accepted | BTC markets (2): WBTC, CDCBTCsourceTectonic core 0xb3831584acb95ED9cCb0C11f677B5AD01DeaeEc0 on Cronos (chain 25) — getAllMarkets() and markets(token) (registry/resolution/2026-09/comptroller_forks.json; root tectonic.gitbook.io/docs: the published tWBTC 0x67fD498E94d95972a4A2a44AccE00a000AF7Fe00 names this core by tectonicCore(), and the docs list it as TectonicSocket (Main Pool)). 18 markets in the main pool (tUSDC, tWBTC, tWETH, tCRO, tDAI, tUSDT, tTONIC, tTUSD, tATOM, tADA, tVVS, tXRP, tLTC, tLCROd, tLCRO, tCDCBTC, tCDCETH, tUSC), read 2026-09-30. Bitcoin markets: tWBTC 0x67fD498E94d95972a4A2a44AccE00a000AF7Fe00 over WBTC 0x062E66477Faf219F25D27dCED647BF57C3107d52 ("Wrapped BTC", 8 decimals) — collateral factor 75%, 91.1 supplied, 0.321 borrowed; tCDCBTC 0xecD4bea6ed20a4a820ae2C4900E5501a985A3fe3 over CDCBTC 0x2e53c5586e12a99d4CAE366E9Fc5C14fE9c6495d ("Crypto.com Wrapped BTC", 8 decimals) — collateral factor 70%, 27.1 supplied, 0.89 borrowed. The Veno and DeFi pools have their own cores, list no bitcoin market per the venue's documentation, and were not read. NOTE: the pool is multi-collateral, so a market's presence does not mean a given borrow is secured by it. |
|---|---|
| Book depth & concentration | unknown (no per-venue counterparty count exists in this registry or in the comparison payload, so depth and concentration cannot be established. This is a gap in THIS DATASET, not in the venue, and is a different value from `undisclosed`, which would mean the venue does not publish it.) |
| Observability | price: partial — Observed through the aggregator (DefiLlama). The aggregator's rows are each pool's published borrow and supply rates as it reports them — not a read of the venue's own contracts, and not checked against one. As of 2026-10-01. quantity: partial — Observed through the aggregator (DefiLlama): bitcoin collateral is the supplied amount of each pegged-bitcoin reserve, converted at the day's bitcoin reference, and debt is the borrowed amount per pool or vault. Neither is a read of the venue's own contracts. As of 2026-10-01. composition: none — Not obtainable from an aggregator — composition is loan-level and requires event ingestion, which is not planned for this venue. |
What the loans are denominated in
| Borrowed in | Assets | Size (USD equivalent) | In the loan asset | Read by |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| US dollars | $1.6m | — | account-by-account pool read, 2026-10-13 | |
| not dollars — currency not yet split | $20k | — | account-by-account pool read, 2026-10-13 |
Each currency is a separate book; the dollar equivalents compare sizes and are never added together.
Backing chain
Each link from what this venue takes as collateral down to the bitcoin it rests on, in order, with how each link was established.
How a chain is read, and what it does not claim
backing_chain: the ordered claims standing between a creditor and the coins, each link derived from a sourced fact already held and carrying it in `derived_from` — the custody cell, the venue's borrow card, or wrapper_registry.yaml for who holds the bitcoin behind a token. A `representation` link has one branch per token the venue takes; branches are alternatives, not a sequence. A link nobody has established is shown with status `incomplete` and names what is missing — it is never dropped, because a missing link omitted makes a long chain look short. `undisclosed` means the party does not publish it; `incomplete` means this dataset has not established it. NEVER SCORED AND NEVER COUNTED: no length, link count or ranking is published, and none should be derived — chain length and link transparency are orthogonal (ETP-backed margin is the longest chain here and every link of it is regulated). `recourse` is what the creditor holds beyond the chain. ⚠ Tokens are identified BY SYMBOL: the wrapper registry is not keyed by chain or address, so every `representation` link carries a `deployment` step that is incomplete — whether a token is native to the chain of the venue or a bridge receipt (one more link) is not established — and a symbol the registry knows to name a different token on a venue is shown unresolved, not given that wrapper's holders.

The generic axis set
Identical for every venue, identically computed. An axis that cannot be computed here renders its reason — never silently omitted, because an omitted axis says it was not considered. A figure that covers only part of what the axis asks is marked, with what it leaves out beneath it. Collateral, debt and the borrow and lend rates are the tiles at the top of this page.
