The Keep Protocol is a new paradigm of a decentralized banking system integrated with margin trading and algorithmic market operations(AMO), which enables instant lending with high capital efficiency.
At the heart of the Voltz Protocol is the Lending Pool that is responsible for the deployment of Interest Rate Swap (IRS) pools.
Each (IRS) pool works on top of a yield-bearing pool that produces variable rates of return (e.g. Aave v2 aUSDC lending pool).

Collateral trading. Change the risk from one or more collateral to another without closing the debt position.
Repay a loan with the collateral. Use the collateral deposit in the protocol to pay down debt positions.
Margin trading. Create margin positions that can be traded later.
In order to short bitcoin three times, a user can sell bitcoin on the Eternal DEX and lock in the Keep's contract; they can also buy bitcoin back during withdrawals or liquidations; When the loss is more than the net supply, the position will be liquidated.
The Keep protocol implements a solution that can use Flash Loans in combination with any other features of the protocol, thus powering many new possibilities: collateral trading, repay a loan with the collateral, margin trading, debt swaps, and margin deposits.
A liquidation contract allows any outside participant to buy part of the collateral at a discount. If a liquidation event occurs, up to 50% of the loan can be liquidated, which will bring the health factor back above 1.
Keep Margin does not charge a funding fee like Perpetual does. If customers want to keep onto their place for a while, they are not need to pay the fee, which is typically collected once every eight hours, every day.
The withdrawal operation allows the user to exchange a certain amount of aToken for the underlying asset. The actual redemption amount is calculated using the aToken/ underlying exchange rate Ei.
The borrow capacity of the Keep protocol won't be affected by investing in collateral with immediate withdrawal ability because it can be utilised at any moment.
Each (IRS) pool is made up of three key components (contracts): Margin Engine, Virtual Automated Market Maker (vAMM) and Full Collateralization Module (FCM)

The borrow operation transfers to the user a speci c amount of underlying asset, in exchange of a collateral that remains locked. The flow of action can be described as follows:
Keeps creates an inventive feature called margin trading. In order to borrow leveraged assets that will be locked in the smart contract, the user must first contribute some form of tokens to the pool. If the user attempts to go long Bitcoin.
The flash loan operation will allow users to borrow from reserves in a single transaction, as long as the user returns more of the liquidity that has been tied up.

Details:
Enables traders to enter into fully collateralized fixed taker positions by depositing margin in the form of the yield-bearing asset (e.g. aUSDC) instead of the underlying token (e.g. USDC)
As indicated in the chart below, users are not permitted to borrow against their assets prior to withdrawal or liquidation. This is different from the typical borrow model, where users can obtain assets by providing over the collateral assets and placing them in their wallets.
The Keep protocol will seek out suitable bridge pools, including cBidge, Multichain, Stargate, Allbridge, and Hop Exchange, for supplying the collateral necessary to earn LP rewards.
Shuffling means that you need to load and unload elements "randomly," for example, >100GB data sets on hardware chips with 16GB or less memory. While operations on hardware are very fast, the time it takes to load and unload data over the network.

Dear Community Members,
We are thrilled to announce the official partnership with
@alt_layer
that will power the KEEP Finance.
We are collaborating closely with many infrastructure teams in the Ethereum space.
Leverage employed in margin trading will inevitably increase capital efficiency while simultaneously increasing financial risk. Users run the risk of losing money if they borrow the assets and trade the wrong way. They risk losing money if they liquidate their position.
DefaultReserveInterestRateStrategy are defined the followings in the base strategy contract :
- Base variable borrowing rate Rv0
- Interest rate slope below optimal utilization Rslope1
- Interest rate slope above optimal utilization Rslope2
The Libraries’ InterestRateStrategy holds the information needed to update the interest rates of a specific reserve and enforces the update of the interest rates. Every reserve has a specific InterestRateStrategy contract.
Deposits idle collateral in several DeFi vaults and protocols. AMO uses idle collateral in conjunction with DeFi protocols to offer a dependable yield. The ability to withdraw the investment's collateral quickly without having to borrow from the protocol is the main demand.

When the automated margin call feature is activated, Keep Finance will utilize your available balance to fill the margin if your margin level is about to reach the maintenance margin level. The additional sum is equivalent to your existing position's initial margin.
The flash loan operation will allow users to borrow from reserves in a single transaction, as long as the user returns more of the liquidity that has been tied up.
These aTokens are minted upon deposit, their value increases until they are burned on redeem or liquidated. Whenever a user opens a borrow position, the tokens used as collateral are locked and cannot be transferred.
The Libraries contract is intergrated in the LendingPool, which provides data, state and basic logic for the LendingPool; To be specific:
🔹holds the state of every reserve and all the assets deposited;
🔹Handles the basic logic
Initial Margin
In terms of leveraged trading, it alludes to the minimal amount of collateral needed to open a transaction.
However, the actual transaction charge will be paid when the order is completed and will be determined based on the actual transaction price.

A smart contract controls the purchasing, selling, and liquidating of assets in the dex on the same chain. The best DEX will be chosen by Keep Finance to be included in the Keep margin contract.
A coin holder sends the tokens they intend to lend into a pool using a smart contract. Once the coins are sent to a smart contract, they become available to other users to borrow. Afterward, the smart contract issues tokens (usually, the platform’s native token).
A liquidation contract allows any outside participant to buy part of the collateral at a discount. If a liquidation event occurs, up to 50% of the loan can be liquidated, which will bring the health factor back above 1.
When a position is liquidated or withdrawn, the smart contract will sell Bitcoin; if the net supply is insufficient to cover the loss, the position will be liquidated.
Keep is the next-generation lending protocol that helps the users monetize their assets more efficiently and safely than anything else available on the market.
The first one is User Experience. It is increasingly important to allow liquidity to flow seamlessly between chains in a multi-chain world. The second one is Decentralized Governance. Keep governance acts as a gatekeeper for certain aspects of protocol configuration.
Keep is the next-generation lending protocol that helps the users monetize their assets more efficiently and safely than anything else available on the market.
The interest rates are determined by an algorithm: for borrowers, this depends on the cost of funds - the amount of money available in a given pool at a given time. For the lender, this rate corresponds to part of the earning rate, plus the yield earned by AMO.
At present, various liquidity protocols do not allow the borrowing capacity of an asset to be reduced without eventually leading to liquidation. This is particularly limited when the risk profile of an asset changes.
One of the advanced features implemented in the LendingPool contract is the tokenization of the lending position. When a user deposits in a specific reserve, he receives a corresponding amount of aTokens, which map the liquidity deposited.
The design of Keep Finance implements enhancements in improving the user experience while providing greater capital efficiency without sacrificing security.
Along with continuous research and data analysis on markets, Keep Protocol has highlighted some areas for its efforts.
ATokens also natively implemented the concept of interest rate redirection. In fact, the interest rate the borrower pays over time produces a different value than the principal. Once aTokens has a balance, the accruals can be redirected to any address.
Supply caps allow restrictions on how much of a specific asset can be supplied to Keep protocol. This helps to reduce exposure to certain assets and mitigate risks such as unlimited minting or oracle manipulation.
Each reserve has a specific liquidation threshold, using the same methodology as LTV. The calculation of the average liquidation threshold LaQ is performed dynamically, using a weighted average of the liquidation thresholds for the underlying assets of the collateral.
In the event of price volatility, borrowed positions may be liquidated. A liquidation event occurs when the price of the collateral price falls below the threshold LQ (called the liquidation threshold). Reaching that ratio pays a liquidation bonus.
Collateral trading. Change the risk from one or more collateral to another without closing the debt position.
Repay a loan with the collateral. Use the collateral deposit in the protocol to pay down debt positions.
Each pool in Keep Protocol holds reserves in multiple currencies. Reserves accept deposits from lenders. Users can borrow these funds if they lock in a greater value as collateral to back the borrowed position.
DeFi lending occurs thanks to the lending platforms or protocols. These platforms offer cryptocurrency loans in a trustless manner, allowing the holders to stake the coins they have in the DeFi lending platforms for lending purposes.
Optimize borrowing power:
In Keep protocol, because any collateral could be used to borrow any "loanable" asset in the pool model, borrowers meet challenges in some cases to maximize their borrowing capacity.
This is primarily an off-chain/coordination issue, and managing this risk often involves maintaining a mission-critical culture when dealing with code/smart contract upgrades. Liquidity risk is more subtle, involving careful assessment of market conditions.
The total collateral value is then used to calculate the average lending capacity, calculated as a weighted average of the lending capacity of all individual assets. The risk allocation of assets reflects the fact that both the total value of the collateral.
As funds are borrowed from the pool, there is less money available, so the interest rate raises. For the lender, this rate corresponds to part of the earning rate, plus the yield earned by AMO, and the algorithm makes sure the lenders can withdraw their liquidity at any time.
Aggregated liquidity method:
In the Keep protocol, the user's total collateral value is calculated by summing up the value of all collateral and standardizing the total into some base currency (usually ETH).
Reduce liquidity segregation
The new liquidity protocol seeks to increase collateral capacity while reducing risk by enabling segregated pools or pairs. Although it can improve the collateralization power, that actually encourages the extra liquidity isolation.
The Keep Protocol implements a tokenization strategy for liquidity providers. Upon deposit, the depositor receives a corresponding amount of derivative tokens called aTokens that map 1:1 the underlying assets. The balance of aTokens of every depositor grows over time.
In many cases, this limits the power borrowers can obtain from their collateral. For example, if a user borrows stablecoins while providing stablecoins, the volatility between the collateral and the borrowed assets is relatively low.
While borrowing capacity (LTV) and maintenance margin (liquidation threshold) can be dynamically adjusted, the protocol could benefit from increased defenses against possible strikes, such as unlimited minting or oracle manipulation.
Generate more yield for liquidity providers by AMO:
Much of the liquidity is sitting idle in smart contracts, generating income from Algorithmic Market Operation Controller (AMO), which is a modular, autonomous banking Lego frame.
Keep protocol introduces the ability for Keep governance to place entities on a permissibility list to unlock the ability to change risk parameters without a governance vote. These entities can be DAOs or automated agents that can be built on top of this capability.
The Keep protocol will seek out suitable bridge pools, including cBidge, Multichain, Stargate, Allbridge, and Hop Exchange, for supplying the collateral necessary to earn LP rewards.
Specific algorithmic market operations can be allocated based on the unused borrowing positions and only low-risk strategies should be considered. Each reserve has a specific loan-to-value ratio(LTV) calculated as a weighted average of the different LTVs.
Keep governance can now configure borrowing caps and supply caps. Borrow Caps are similar to those implemented in other liquidity protocols, allowing the protocols to regulate how much of each asset can be borrowed.
The Keep protocol is a new paradigm of decentralized banking system integrated with algorithmic market operations(AMO), which enables instant lending with high capital efficiency.
The interest rates are determined by an algorithm: for borrowers, this depends on the cost of funds.
Through the prudent borrowing capacity control in the Keep protocol, Keep governance can reduce the borrowing capacity of an asset to as low as 0% without affecting existing borrowers, although existing users can still be liquidated if deemed necessary.
Funds are stored within each specific aToken. This gives the protocol better segregation between assets, which favors the implementation of yield farming aware aTokens.
🔹All operations including liquidation happen through LendingPool.
🔹Debt tokens track users debt.
The Keep protocol implements a tokenization strategy for liquidity providers. After depositing, the depositor receives a corresponding number of derivative tokens, called aTokens, which map the underlying asset in a 1:1 ratio. Each depositor's aToken balance grows over time.
The liquidity providers are forced to deploy in multiple pairs/pool assets to match their risk appetite. The borrower may be forced to allocate their collaterals to different pool/collateral to borrow the things they need.
The revenue is stable and secure, it can reuse idle capital without increasing solvency contingencies. The AMO module is an autonomous contract that can perform open market operations through algorithms and interact with the wider DeFi projects.
Sophisticated risk parameters:
Regarding smart contract risk and liquidity risk, risk management is critical to any banking protocol. Smart contract risk requires careful review and audit of any code updates.
