About the project

Varla Protocol lets prediction market traders borrow stablecoins against their positions without selling them. It features cross-margin collateral, dynamic interest rates, and permissionless liquidations. Lending is in public beta on Polygon using Polymarket positions as collateral. A new Jupiter integration enables prediction market trading on Solana directly through Varla. The next milestone is bringing collateralized lending to Solana.
