Sturdy Finance introduces a new approach to creating liquid money markets for any token through a unique two-tier architecture. This design isolates risk between assets while preventing liquidity fragmentation, featuring risk-isolated pools at its base and an aggregation layer that enables lenders to choose suitable collateral assets for their deposits. The governance token of the platform, $STRDY plays a pivotal role in overseeing the Sturdy protocol's operations. Governance is primarily driven by $STRDY holders.
