Overview
Cardano Yield Hub is a non-custodial dashboard that lets you compare lending, borrowing, and token-swap rates across several Cardano finance apps from one screen. It is built for people who want to earn yield or borrow against their crypto without checking each protocol separately. The site pulls live rates from the underlying apps and shows the best supply and borrow options side by side, so you can act on the strongest one1.
Cardano Yield Hub runs on Cardano and is built by ADA Markets, the team behind the Fetch trade-routing engine2. It connects to four established Cardano protocols and never takes hold of your money. You link a self-custody wallet, and every deposit, loan, or trade happens directly between your wallet and the app you choose3.
Key Features
- One place to compare rates. A "Top Opportunities" view lists the highest supply rates and lowest borrowing rates across every connected protocol, so the best deal is visible without opening four separate apps1.
- Lend and borrow through partner protocols. You can supply assets, take out loans, and repay them directly through Liqwid Finance and Surf, two Cardano lending markets, without leaving the dashboard4.
- A wider view of the market. Fluid Tokens (peer-to-peer lending) and Indigo Protocol (synthetic assets) appear as live, read-only data, so you can compare their rates alongside the protocols you transact on4.
- Built-in exchange finder. The swap tab is a DEX aggregator: it checks several Cardano exchanges at once and finds the best price for a trade, which uses ADA Markets' own Fetch routing engine to split one order across multiple exchanges5.
- You keep your keys. The platform holds no user funds and requires no account. It states plainly that it acts only as an aggregator, routing you to other apps rather than taking custody of your assets3.
What to Expect
A visitor lands on a dashboard showing the strongest lending and borrowing rates of the moment, drawn live from the connected protocols. To do anything beyond browsing, you connect a Cardano wallet, and there is no sign-up and no email. From there you can supply funds to earn yield, borrow against what you hold, or swap one token for another, with each action confirmed in your own wallet.
The experience is aimed at people already comfortable with a Cardano wallet who want fewer tabs and a clearer picture of where the best rates are. Because Cardano Yield Hub routes to other apps rather than running its own lending market, the money and the loan terms live with those underlying protocols. The dashboard's job is comparison and access, not custody. The project was funded through Project Catalyst and delivered as a completed grant, with reviewers confirming live lending flows on Liqwid and Surf6.
