Frequently Asked Questions

What is Pendle?

Pendle is a DeFi protocol that lets users tokenize and trade future yield. It splits yield-bearing tokens (like stETH or GLP) into Principal Tokens (PT) and Yield Tokens (YT), enabling users to lock in fixed yields, speculate on yield rate changes, or create custom yield strategies.

How does yield tokenization work?

When you deposit a yield-bearing asset into Pendle, it creates two tokens: a Principal Token (redeemable for the underlying at maturity) and a Yield Token (which captures all yield generated until maturity). These can be traded independently on Pendle's AMM.

What is vePENDLE?

vePENDLE is the vote-escrowed governance model where PENDLE is locked for up to 2 years to earn boosted yields, protocol revenue share, and voting power to direct incentives to specific pools. Longer lock periods provide greater benefits and governance influence.
