BOND was built on the Ethereum blockchain as an ERC-20 governance token for the BarnBridge ecosystem. Since it works as a governance token, BOND token holders can vote on proposals and build out the community in a way that is reflective of its members. BOND is the native token on the BarnBridge platform.
Products on BarnBridge are mostly focused on ways to track yield sensitivity, such as the development of token-based derivatives. One of the features of BarnBridge, called tranches, allows digital assets to be broken down into smaller portions and then be combined with others to form derivative projects. How exactly does that look?
When a digital asset is supplied to a pool, it is then exchanged for other digital assets, then it supplies various lending protocols. Each of the supported Ending protocols has its own yield. Then, similar to a collateralized loan obligation, those yields are pooled together in a security.
