            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*NIzw3GM3dK87bnCM" /></figure><p>INIT Capital was founded with a clear vision: to democratize access to liquidity for everyone in the DeFi space.</p><p>This approach has helped many DeFi builders overcome the significant challenge of bootstrapping and maintaining liquidity, enabling them to build dApps and craft yield strategies more efficiently.</p><p>However, bootstrapping and maintaining liquidity isn’t the only challenge for DeFi builders. Launching and scaling a DeFi dApp still consists of further complexities beyond liquidity that require abstraction.</p><p>To extend INIT’s vision to the next level, INFINIT, the first ever DeFi Abstraction Layer, is introduced.</p><p>INFINIT is a DeFi infrastructure that abstracts away complexities to launch and scale decentralized finance applications across any integrated chain, while INIT continues to operate as the leading liquidity hook money market on Mantle and Blast.</p><h3>Introducing INFINIT: The DeFi Abstraction Layer</h3><p>INFINIT eliminates the immense friction involved in building and growing DeFi ecosystems, enabling anyone to build and scale an entire DeFi ecosystem across all L1s, L2s, and modular blockchains in a few minutes.</p><p>The DeFi abstraction layer includes all the essential building blocks needed to power all kinds of DeFi applications, such as money markets, DEXes, perp DEXes, leverage trading, leverage farming, yield protocols, and CDPs.</p><p>Both new and existing DeFi protocols can effortlessly be built, customized, and scaled with new features launched from INFINIT. Any chain can integrate with INFINIT to drive the development of its entire DeFi vertical.</p><p>For full details about <a href="https://infinit.tech/">INFINIT</a>, read more <a href="https://medium.com/@infinit_labs/infinit-the-first-defi-abstraction-layer-simplifying-defi-development-for-all-0c344270abd9">here.</a></p><h3>What This Means for INIT Users</h3><p><strong>First Success Case: </strong>INIT Capital represents the first DeFi protocol built using INFINIT. With INFINIT’s modular infrastructure, INIT was able to launch and scale quickly with functionalities of a money market and new customizations and use cases that come in the form of liquidity hooks.</p><p>INIT is now a part of the larger INFINIT ecosystem. The implications for the INIT community are as follows:</p><ol><li><strong>IN Token: IN token (previously mentioned as INIT token) </strong>goes beyond being a token for a single dApp, but a token for the key DeFi infrastructure that captures value across the entire INFINIT ecosystem.<strong> The IN token is not live yet. Please stay tuned for further updates on </strong><a href="https://x.com/Infinit_Labs"><strong>INFINIT’s Twitter</strong></a><strong>.</strong></li><li><strong>INIT Point System:</strong> The INIT Points that have been distributed will be taken into account under the INFINIT ecosystem. Users will be able to retrieve INIT points as usual, with all accumulated points being honored for rewards from the INFINIT ecosystem.</li></ol><p>To find more detailed information about INFINIT, follow INFINIT’s <a href="https://x.com/Infinit_Labs">Twitter</a> and join our <a href="https://infinit.tech/discord">Discord</a>.</p><p>For further updates, stay tuned through INIT Capital’s <a href="https://x.com/InitCapital_">Twitter</a> and <a href="https://init.capital/discord">Discord</a>. Campaigns, announcements, and new features will keep rolling out for INIT Capital.</p><h3>About INIT Capital</h3><p>INIT Capital is built with INFINIT DeFi abstraction layer as the liquidity hook money market that streamlines the process for both end users and dApps.

This boost will <strong>increase by 10% every 14 days.</strong></p><p>The longer you hold your position, the higher boost you’ll get.</p><p>For example,</p><ul><li>6 July: User A deposits 2 ETH with 3.00x weight boost on INIT. INIT will see the position as 6 ETH to calculate the Blast Gold.</li><li>20 July (1+14): User A will receive a 3.30x weight boost (a 10% increase from the initial 3x weight boost), and this boost will continue to increase every 14 days.</li></ul><p>Therefore, on Day 14, INIT will calculate the position as 6.6 ETH.</p><ul><li>3 August (1+ 28): User A will receive a 3.63x weight boost (a 10% increase from the previous 3.3x weight boost).</li></ul><p>Therefore, on Day 28, INIT will calculate the position as 7.26 ETH.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*Z4M_RMVImYB8loDP" /></figure><p><strong>The 3x boost represents the highest starting weighted boost rate exclusively for loyal users who stick around with INIT on Blast before July 8, 8AM UTC.</strong></p><p>Therefore, Depositors who deposit before July 8, 8AM UTC, will keep the 3x base boost which will put them in the most advantageous position.</p><p>For Depositors who open their positions after 8 July, 8AM UTC, they will receive a 2x weighted boost, which will be used as a base to calculate the 10% boost every 14 days.</p><p>To provide users with flexibility in managing their positions, INIT does not restrict users to lock and hold their positions. Users can withdraw liquidity at any time.</p><ol><li><strong>INIT Points:</strong> Deposit to earn 1 INIT point for every $100 value per 24 hours.</li><li><strong>Blast Point:</strong> Deposits of ETH, USDB, and BLAST in INIT on Blast get you Blast points, as shown on the INIT App.</li></ol><h4>Borrow on INIT to Get Blast Gold, INIT Points, and Blast Points</h4><ol><li><strong>Blast Gold:</strong> The remaining 20% of Blast Gold received from Blast will be distributed to Borrowers on INIT, shared by volume.</li><li><strong>INIT Point:</strong> Borrow to earn 5 INIT points for every $100 value borrowed per 24 hours.</li><li><strong>Blast Points:</strong> Simply hold ETH, USDB, and/or BLAST on the Blast network to get Blast points</li></ol><h3>Earn 10% More Points Through Referrals</h3><p>Refer and earn 10% of the Blast Gold and INIT Point earned by every member you refer to from depositing and borrowing activity.</p><p>Simply post your invitation code with the hashtag #LiquidityHookEra on Twitter to make a referral.</p><p>As long as your referee continues to earn points from any chain (Blast/Mantle), you, the referrer, will continuously receive 10% of their points.</p><h3>About INIT Capital</h3><p>INIT Capital is built as the liquidity hook money market that streamlines the process for both end users and dApps.

Sit tight to see more upcoming Hooks, including Margin Trading, Looping Hook and many more Point Farming Hooks for you to enjoy.</p><h3>Rewards in Phase 2</h3><p>There are 3 main DeFi activities to earn points and rewards on INIT in Phase 2: Liquidity Hook. Engage in all to maximize your points:</p><p><strong>1. Deposit ETH and/or USDB</strong></p><ul><li><strong>INIT Points:</strong> Earn 1 INIT point for every $100 value deposited per 24 hours.</li><li><strong>Blast Gold with Extra Boost: </strong>Depositors will get a <strong>1.6x </strong>weight boost when opening a position in Phase 2. This boost will <strong>increase by 10% every 7 days</strong>. Refer to the full Blast boost calculation details <a href="https://medium.com/@InitCapital_/introducing-init-on-blast-5ce339b2462f">here</a>.</li></ul><p>80% of Blast Gold received from the Blast team will be distributed to Depositors on INIT, shared by TVL. The longer you hold your position, the higher boost you’ll get.</p><ul><li><strong>Blast Points: </strong>Blast points allocated to Depositors will be determined by both the amount deposited and the pool’s utilization rate. The calculation for Blast Points follows this formula:</li></ul><p><strong>Blast Points = </strong>(Deposited— Borrowed) / (Total Deposited— Total Borrowed) percent * Total INIT Blast Points</p><ul><li>Deposited: The total amount deposited by user.</li><li>Borrowed: The total amount user borrowed from the pool.</li><li>Total Deposited: The overall sum of deposits in the pool.</li><li>Total Borrowed: The overall sum borrowed from the pool.</li><li>Total INIT Blast Points: The total Blast Points available on INIT.</li></ul><p><strong>2. Borrow ETH and/or USDB</strong></p><ul><li><strong>INIT Points:</strong> Earn 5 INIT points for every $100 value borrowed per 24 hours.</li><li><strong>Blast Gold: </strong>20% of Blast Gold received from the Blast team will be distributed to Borrowers on INIT, shared by TVL.</li><li><strong>Blast Points: </strong>Simply hold assets on the Blast network to get Blast points.</li></ul><p><strong>3. Utilize Hook</strong></p><ul><li><strong>INIT Points:</strong> Coming soon. Stay tuned as we launch more Hooks.</li></ul><h4><strong>Example Rewards Calculation for Orbit Farming Hook</strong></h4><p>User A opens an Orbit Farming Hook position by:</p><ul><li>Borrowing 1 ETH (assuming 1 ETH = $3,000) as collateral from Orbit through INIT.</li><li>Depositing the borrowed 1 ETH onto INIT.</li></ul><p><strong>In return, User A will be eligible for the following rewards from INIT, alongside the $ORBIT and Blast rewards from the Orbit Protocol:</strong></p><p><strong>1. INIT Points: </strong>1 point for every $100 value deposited per 24 hours</p><p>Deposit 1 ETH ($3,000) = 300 points per 24 hours</p><p><strong>2. Blast Gold with Extra Boost: </strong>1.6x weight boost</p><p>INIT will see the position as 1.6 ETH to calculate the Blast Gold.</p><p>7 days later, User A will receive a 1.76x weight boost (a 10% increase from the initial 1.6x weight boost), and this boost will continue to increase every 7 days. Therefore, on Day 8 (1+7), INIT will calculate the position as 1.76 ETH.</p><p><strong>3. Blast Points: </strong>Calculated based on the pool’s utilization rate.</p><p><em>**Note that users won’t receive rewards for the borrowed tokens since the token was borrowed from Orbit Protocol and not from INIT’s lending pool. See the calculations at the end of the blog.</em></p><p>In summary, User A will receive:</p><ul><li><strong>$ORBIT rewards</strong>, <strong>Blast Points</strong>, and <strong>Blast Gold </strong>from Orbit Protocol for participating in lending activities on the Orbit platform.</li><li><strong>INIT points</strong>, <strong>Blast points</strong>, and <strong>Blast Gold with 1.6x boost</strong> from INIT Capital for depositing assets onto INIT.</li></ul><h4><strong>Guide to Opening Orbit Farming Hook Position</strong></h4><ul><li>Go to the ‘Hook’ tab to select the asset you wish to utilize Hook with (currently only ETH and USDB are available), and choose the ‘Orbit Farming Hook’ option.</li></ul><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*1KlgLYy6KxuLFvk13CcYag.png" /></figure><ul><li>Choose the amount to borrow from the Orbit Protocol to be used as collateral.</li><li>Approve the token to deposit on INIT to open a position.</li></ul><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*EX1WBx5bKkRnhOxyn0O9lQ.png" /></figure><h4><strong>Earn 10% More Rewards Through Referrals</strong></h4><p>Referrals will work the same.
