Venus protocol users switching between Core and Flux versions are encountering different interest rate structures.​ The rates don't just show different numbers - they operate on fundamentally different mechanisms.​

Key Differences:

  • Venus Core and Venus Flux display rates that behave distinctly from each other
  • The variation goes beyond simple numerical differences
  • Rate movement patterns differ between the two versions

The protocol is explaining the technical reasoning behind these divergent rate behaviors to help users understand what they're seeing when they navigate between the two platforms.​

This matters for users making decisions about where to supply or borrow assets within the Venus ecosystem, as the rate dynamics could affect their returns and costs.​
