Vesu is a permissionless lending protocol on Starknet that operates without a governance token. It lets users supply and borrow crypto assets, while independent curators create and manage isolated lending pools and vaults.

Vesu is a permissionless lending protocol on Starknet that operates without a governance token or central decision-making body. It lets users supply crypto assets to earn yield, borrow against collateral, and open custom lending markets. Independent curators can launch and manage pools and vaults, setting their own risk parameters for specific asset strategies.

Its second version gives each lending pool an isolated contract, separating risk and reducing complexity compared to shared-pool designs. Developers can extend the protocol through programmable hooks that define custom lending logic, and yield-bearing positions are represented through vTokens. Market forces, rather than governance votes, determine how capital is allocated across pools.

The protocol is accessible through Lite, BTCFi, and Pro interface modes, each suited to different levels of trading and risk experience. Vaults built on top of Vesu automate yield strategies by routing deposits into curated pools without requiring active management. It is used by lenders, borrowers, and independent curators building bitcoin-focused and stablecoin lending strategies on Starknet.

## Products

- [Vesu Protocol](https://thegrid.id/profiles/vesu): Vesu Protocol is a decentralized lending protocol on Starknet that lets users supply digital assets to earn yield or deposit collateral to borrow other assets through isolated, non-custodial lending pools. Each pool runs on its own contract with independently configured risk parameters, price feeds from an onchain oracle, and permissionless pool creation by curators. Users can also open leveraged Multiply positions that loop collateral and borrowed assets to increase exposure and yield, and deposit into automated vaults that allocate funds across curated strategies under enforced onchain mandates. The protocol is accessible through simplified and advanced interface modes tailored to general users, Bitcoin-focused users, and active traders.
