Saffron Finance

Saffron Finance is a decentralized peer-to-peer interest-rate risk adjustment protocol built on Ethereum. Underlying DeFi yield is transformed by a smart-contract vault system according to each user's indicated risk preference, splitting deposits into senior (fixed-income, risk-averse) and junior (variable, risk-seeking) tranches across Uniswap V3 fixed-income vaults. The protocol is governed by the Saffron DAO and its SFI token, and was surfaced in the API Evangelist network as a portfolio company of Multicoin Capital in the crypto-web3 sector. Saffron is an on-chain protocol rather than a hosted web-API provider: its developer surface is Solidity smart contracts, published documentation, audits, and whitepapers rather than a REST/HTTP API.

Saffron Finance is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Crypto Web3, DeFi, Yield, and Fixed Income.

Saffron Finance’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, engineering blog, support, and 7 more developer resources.
