About Sturdy

Sturdy is a first of its kind DeFi protocol for interest-free borrowing and high yield lending. Rather than charging borrowers interest, Sturdy stakes their collateral and passes the yield to lenders. This model changes the relationship between borrowers and lenders to make Sturdy the first positive-sum lending protocol.

To learn more about what we do, you can check out our Medium page. You can also connect with us on Twitter and Discord.
