Inside The Network
🔺What we’re watching: Infrastructure company SemiLiquid has launched the Programmable Credit Protocol (PCP), built on Avalanche, at Abu Dhabi Finance Week.
🔺Why it matters: PCP offers a custody-native infrastructure layer that lets institutions extend and raise credit against tokenized collateral without having to move the underlying assets.
SemiLiquid is looking to launch the protocol globally following a pilot in Abu Dhabi with Franklin Templeton (using its BENJI tokenized money-market fund), Zodia Custody, Ava Labs, Presto Labs, M11 Credit, Oasis Foundation and CMS. The pilot helped show how the protocol enables lenders to obtain legally enforceable security interests and automated triggers without transferring any collateral.
PCP can give institutions an enforceable way to put idle tokenized RWAs to work as collateral, while the assets stay safely in qualified custody and continue earning yield.
The framework aims to reduce legal and operational risk by giving asset managers, custodians, and private-credit funds a compliant rail to lend or borrow instantly.
🔺The bigger picture: A working PCP can pave the way for tokenized assets to be used as financeable, income-generating collateral. If the protocol gains traction, the added liquidity will serve to attract larger institutional allocations, which would eventually deepen Avalanche’s footprint as a settlement layer for onchain credit markets.
