🔥 Bold move by Liquity
Liquity, a decentralized borrowing protocol, is set to launch its V2 update featuring user-set interest rates. This significant development allows users to have more control over their borrowing costs. The update, scheduled for July 8, 2024, builds upon the protocol's earlier announcements and preparations. Liquity has published a detailed blog post explaining the rationale and mechanics behind this new feature, which aims to enhance the protocol's flexibility and user experience.

📊 BOLD Stablecoin Adds $3M Supply and $18M TVL in 30 Days
**BOLD stablecoin reports monthly growth metrics:** - Supply increased by $3M - Total Value Locked (TVL) grew by $18M - Added 48 new BOLD holders - Gained 15 new borrowers The protocol positions itself as offering competitive borrow rates while maintaining decentralization.

Liquity V2 Cuts Borrowing Costs to 0.50% with Automated Rate Management
**Liquity V2 introduces Rate Delegation feature** A user successfully reduced their borrowing rate from 5.90% to 0.50% automatically, maintaining this low rate for over a month. **How Rate Delegation works:** - Professional rate managers continuously adjust your borrowing rate - Optimizes for protection against redemptions - Keeps loan costs as low as possible - No manual intervention required **Key benefits:** - 10x cheaper borrowing costs compared to previous rates - Automated optimization - Protection from redemption risks This feature represents a significant improvement in DeFi borrowing efficiency, allowing users to access competitive rates without active management.
