# What is Denar

> Denar is the money market for tokenized stocks on Robinhood Chain: lend USDG for yield, or borrow dollars against your stock tokens without selling them.

Denar lets you do two things with tokenized stocks that a brokerage never could:

* **Borrow against them.** Deposit stock tokens like NVDA, AAPL or SPY as collateral and borrow the USDG stablecoin — liquidity without selling your position, without leaving the chain, without asking anyone's permission.
* **Earn on dollars.** Lend USDG and earn the interest those borrowers pay. Real yield from real borrowing demand — not emissions, not points.

## Built from proven parts

Denar deliberately writes as little new code as possible. The lending engine is **Morpho Blue** — an immutable, formally verified core of roughly 650 lines that has secured billions of dollars across DeFi. The lender vault is **MetaMorpho**, the standard vault layer built for it.

What Denar adds is the layer that makes *equities* work as collateral on-chain:

## Beyond equities

Denar also lists **blue-chip tokens native to Robinhood Chain**, starting with PONS. They have no Chainlink feed and no closing bell, so they run on a different mechanism — a time-weighted AMM price, a separate vault, and a supply cap as the primary risk control.
