Kamino Brings Sterling Lending Onchain With tGBP Market
Kamino opened a sterling-denominated lending market on Solana for tGBP, a British-pound stablecoin issued by BCP Technologies. The market is curated by Steakhouse Financial and lets users supply tGBP or borrow against supported collateral in an isolated setup.
What this rests on
What it means
Each sentence links inside to the piece that supports it.
Users and lenders on Solana are the main group affected because Kamino has added a sterling-denominated market that accepts tGBP. That gives them a new place to supply a British-pound stablecoin or borrow against the listed collateral instead of only using dollar-based markets.
In practice, the market now allows tGBP supply and borrowing against USDC, cbBTC and JitoSOL in an isolated structure. The loan-to-value limits are set between 60% and 85%, while the market still keeps the sterling denomination that distinguishes it from the more common dollar stablecoins.
