This partnership marks a pivotal step in bringing the FRAX stablecoin and its staked version, sFRAX, from Ethereum to the Cosmos network, known for its interoperability among approximately 80 blockchains
In a significant move for the DeFi space, Frax Finance has announced its expansion into the Cosmos ecosystem, partnering with Noble, the on-chain asset issuance blockchain.
This partnership marks a pivotal step in bringing the FRAX stablecoin and its staked version, sFRAX, from Ethereum to the Cosmos network, known for its interoperability among approximately 80 blockchains.
A Vision for Expansion and Adoption
At the core of this expansion lies a vision to amplify the adoption of FRAX and sFRAX across a myriad of applications, from trading to savings, payments, and collateral. Noble’s successful integration, which includes a substantial USDC circulation supply of over $195 million, serves as a testament to the potential for seamless asset integration across major Cosmos chains like Osmosis, dYdX, Celestia, Sei, and Injective. This collaboration paints a picture of a more liquid and interoperable Cosmos ecosystem, offering a decentralized stablecoin alternative with a promising outlook for widespread adoption.
Ambitious Targets and Roadmap
Frax Finance’s expansion is just the beginning; the company has set its sights on a lofty goal of reaching $100 billion in assets by 2026. This aspiration is part of a comprehensive “singularity roadmap” that aims to significantly increase the TVL in its layer 2 blockchain, Fraxtal. With a current TVL of $13.2 million, the roadmap outlines the introduction of new assets and the rejuvenation of a mechanism to share protocol revenue with stakers of its native tokens. This audacious vision strives to fully collateralize the FRAX stablecoin and boost yields on sFRAX.
The Role of Noble in Frax Finance’s Strategy
Noble emerges as a critical player in this strategic expansion, facilitating the issuance of native digital assets within the Cosmos ecosystem. This move not only brings FRAX and sFRAX within the interoperable Cosmos network but also follows Noble’s successful track record, evidenced by its integration of Circle’s USDC. Noble’s technology enables the integration of assets with major Cosmos chains, enhancing the liquidity and utility of FRAX and sFRAX across a wide range of applications.
