Radiant Capital had a successful year in 2023, with notable achievements and milestones. The V2 upgrade brought enhanced tokenomics, utility, and cross-chain capabilities to the platform. Radiant expanded to BNB and ETH Mainnet, getting closer to their omnichain vision. Deposits surged from $125M to $672.8M, and borrows grew from $90.3M to $329.7M. Dynamic liquidity providers added robustness and unlocked access to a portion of protocol fees, reaching a total of $105.8M. Radiant generated around $22M in fees from V2 alone. The active user base increased significantly from 37,409 to 389,250. The community can look forward to RFP-28, introducing components of Radiant V3.
