Project 0 Launches as Solana’s First ’DeFi Prime Broker’ with Game-Changing Unified Margins

Solana just got its first institutional-grade DeFi prime brokerage—and traditional finance won't know what hit it.

Unified Margins: One Pool to Rule Them All

Project 0's unified margin system collapses cross-protocol collateral into a single liquidity pool. No more fragmented balances across lending protocols, perpetual exchanges, or yield farms. One margin account now handles everything—cutting capital inefficiency by consolidating positions that previously required overcollateralization.

Prime Brokerage Goes Chain-Native

The platform aggregates liquidity from Solana's top DeFi venues while providing institutional-facing features: sub-accounts, cross-margin support, and portfolio-level risk management. It's prime brokerage without the prime brokers—bypassing the traditional intermediaries that still can't figure out whether crypto belongs in their ivory towers.

Because nothing says 'financial revolution' like watching hedge funds pay 2% management fees to get rekt by a 20-year-old degen using a unified margin account from their dorm room.

Solana-based Project 0 wants to overhaul DeFi trading

In addition to making trading more capital efficient, MacBrennan Peet, founder of Project 0, believes this platform also has the potential to change the way traders engage with DeFi. He explains the role that prime brokerages play in TradFi and why mature DeFi needs them.

“Prime brokerage services are fundamental infrastructure in traditional finance,” Peet states. “For the first time we’re equipping DeFi traders with the same cross-platform portfolio management benefits that have long been enjoyed by hedge funds and institutional players, fundamentally leveling the playing field,” he added.
