What is Prisma Finance (PRISMA)

1. Project Introduction
Prisma Finance is a decentralized stablecoin protocol that allows users to deposit LST/LRT as collateral to mint mkUSD/ULTRA, over-collateralized stablecoins. These stablecoins are incentivized on Curve and Convex Finance, offering users additional rewards such as trading fees, CRV, CVX, and PRISMA.
Summary: Since Ethereum's Shanghai upgrade in 2023, the liquid staking token (LST) market has grown rapidly. Prisma unlocks dual liquidity in the Ethereum ecosystem by enabling LSD assets to be used as collateral for minting stablecoins. The project has garnered support from prominent investors and founders, including those behind Curve Finance, Convex Finance, FRAX Finance, CoinGecko, OKX Ventures, and Swell.
