Echelon Lending Hub Launches on Initia Mainnet with Cross-Chain Capabilities
Echelon, a MoveVM-based lending appchain, has officially launched on the Initia mainnet, introducing cross-chain lending markets with integrated DEX functionality, oracles, and DA support. The platform incentivizes liquidity provisioning through VIP rewards denominated in $esINIT, targeting USDC, sUSDe, and INIT suppliers or borrowers.
Leveraging MiniMove and Celestia integrations, Echelon aims to optimize high-throughput transactions while offering modular tooling for decentralized finance participants. This rollout marks a strategic expansion of Initia’s rollup ecosystem, focusing on capital efficiency for stablecoins, liquid staking tokens, and volatile assets.
