#termmax @TermMax I used to assume rate curves on-chain were locked in at the protocol layer—one mathematical shape everyone had to operate inside until the whole pool got rewritten.
TermMax turns that assumption inside out. The Range Order Tool lets individual traders lay out both the rate path and the liquidity map themselves. You’re no longer adjusting settings inside a pre-drawn model; you’re deciding the shape from the ground up.
That changes whose view of risk and time actually sets the price. Instead of every lender quietly accepting the same baked-in story, each curve becomes a separate call on where rates and depth should sit right now, unconnected to the next person’s thesis.
The practical limit shows up fast. A collection of private designs only produces real borrowable liquidity when enough of them happen to line up. Having the freedom to design doesn’t automatically create a matching counterparty.
Which leaves the interesting tension: do people on TermMax slowly start drawing similar shapes because coordination rewards it, or does the real depth come from the fact that no two curves look the same?
