🌱 $Pendle – the future of tokenization?

Pendle is a DeFi protocol that lets users trade and manage the yield of crypto assets by splitting them into two parts:

• PT (Principal Token) – the asset without future yield (like buying a tree without apples).
• YT (Yield Token) – the future income from the asset (buying the apples the tree will produce).

💡 Who needs Pendle and why?
• Traders – to profit from yield changes.
• Investors – to lock in future returns and reduce risk.
• Crypto holders – to boost profits by separately managing risk and yield or depositing assets into LPs.
