Smart Bonds
Bonds are units of debt traded as securitized assets
Nous' first series of investment products is now live and ready to be used. We've structured our first offering in the form of bonds – securities which return a fixed rate of interest over a specified time.
As 'fixed income derivatives', bonds are unique in that they offer stable yield predictions to investors. A $5000 deposit into a two year 45% bond contract for example, will pay out exactly $7250 in two years time, and so on. Because projected payouts from bonds do not change, they are a highly effective shield against a fluctuating market. We've also taken the liberty of making all payouts in stablecoin (USDT), which maintains the value of our bonds over time.
In addition to our existing two year bond contracts, we are now adding the option for investors to select either three or six month contracts from our dApp. With these shorter-term contracts, we hope to offer investors additional security at a time of peak market volatility, as well as remain competitive with existing fixed income options like staking. You can read more about minting contracts with Nous in our tutorial series here, or visit https://www.nous.fund/ to get started with your first bond. Financial info for each of our bonds can be found below.
