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.

Artemis . For DeFi users

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