Hello everyone, today I would like to share some insights on the two innovative products offered by zkLend Protocol.

What is zkLend Protocol?

zkLend is a money-market protocol combining zk-rollup scalability, superior transaction speed, and cost-savings with Ethereum's security. They are building on starkNet.

Currently they are developing two different products, called Artemis and Apollo.

A next-generation DeFi lending protocol, Artemis enables any user to deposit, borrow, and lend in an efficient and decentralised manner on StarkNet.

A gateway for institutional users into DeFi, Apollo allows permissioned participants to deposit, borrow and lend without compromising compliance and security on StarkNet.

If you have a look at the zkLend’s website, you’ll see that both products are still under development. When will they be released? Let’s have a look into the roadmap:

PHASE 1

Artemis MVP (Q3 2022) Reliability of core functionalities established

PHASE 2

Artemis 1.0 (Q4 2022) Refined Artemis mainnet product launched

PHASE 3

Apollo MVP (late-Q4 2022) Apollo testnet launched. First institutional clients onboarded

PHASE 4

Apollo 1.0 (Q1 2023) Apollo mainnet launched. Preparation of DAO governance transition
