🏦Introduction

Friendly Market is launching a lending protocol on the Nibiru blockchain that combines native lending pools with cross-chain markets.

• Native Pools → For assets like NIBI directly on Nibiru.

• Cross-chain Lending → Supply/borrow in Compound on Ethereum and Base (other chains will be added in the future) using LayerZero + Stargate bridging.

• Liquidity Hub → Friendly Market is creating the environment that transforms Nibiru into a cross-chain liquidity center, where billions in TVL are accessible.

Why it matters:

• Users don’t need to leave their Nibiru wallet.

• They can interact with both local assets (NIBI) and external DeFi (Compound and more).

• They get better rates, incentives, and rewards compared to isolated markets.
