Overview
What is STRATO?
STRATO is a DeFi protocol built around hard assets: on-chain gold, silver, ETH, and BTC. Users mint USDST, STRATO’s native stablecoin, by depositing these assets as collateral through a CDP (Collateralized Debt Position). STRATO calls its unique model HardFi: hard assets, powered by DeFi speed and liquidity.
Every metal tokenized on STRATO is vaulted 1:1 in New York City and redeemable in person. This is physical backing you won’t find on Aave, Compound, or any standard DeFi lending market. STRATO’s founders were the first to tokenize RWAs on Ethereum and are bringing more tokenized assets to STRATO every month.
The protocol charges a CDP stability fee of approximately 2-3% annually, compared to 5-15% on most competing platforms. That gap is an opportunity: borrow cheap, deploy into yield-bearing positions, keep the spread. STRATO’s vision is to make the most trusted assets in the world also some of the most productive.”
