Hedge

Hedge is a decentralized, non-custodial lending protocol built on the Solana blockchain that lets users mint USH, a stablecoin soft-pegged to the US dollar. Users deposit collateral into vaults to take out 0% interest loans for a one-time fee, maintaining a collateral-to-debt ratio above 110% to avoid liquidation. A stability pool absorbs liquidations and rewards depositors with discounted collateral, while a Peg Stability Module and a multi-source oracle (Pyth Network primary, Switchboard fallback) keep USH near its peg. Hedge is an on-chain protocol rather than a hosted REST API; its documentation, whitepaper, and audited Solana program are its public surface. Backed by Pantera Capital and Y Combinator; smart contracts audited by Kudelski, OtterSec, and Sec3.

Hedge is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Crypto, DeFi, Solana, and Stablecoin.

Hedge’s developer surface includes documentation and 3 more developer resources.
