PANews February 11 News, according to CoinDesk, DeFi protocol Spark announced the launch of two new products, Spark Prime and Spark Institutional Lending, at Consensus Hong Kong 2025. The products aim to connect hedge funds and other institutions with on-chain stablecoin liquidity and off-chain credit markets. The new offerings will allow institutions to access Spark’s over $9 billion on-chain stablecoin liquidity pool while complying with traditional custody and regulatory requirements.
Spark Prime offers a margin lending model that enables borrowers to deploy collateral across centralized exchanges, DeFi platforms, and qualified custodians within a unified risk management framework. This structure is supported by Arkis’s margin and liquidation engine, which can automatically liquidate positions across platforms when risk thresholds are exceeded. Spark Institutional Lending targets institutions that prefer fully custodial participation, collaborating with custodians like Anchorage Digital to allow institutions to use assets held in custody as collateral and access liquidity pools governed by Spark.
