Angle
CDPs · Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon +5
Angle is an over-collateralized stablecoin protocol that mints the euro stablecoin agEUR, offers perpetuals and borrowing, and lets users earn yield. It is a niche, small-TVL protocol that suits users who want euro-denominated DeFi and accept smart-contract risk.

Abracadabra Spell
CDPs · Ethereum, Arbitrum, BNB Chain +5
Abracadabra lets users deposit collateral and borrow its MIM stablecoin, with the SPELL token tied to the ecosystem. It runs on eight chains, but its TVL is modest and the smart-contract and peg risks are real.

QiDao
CDPs · Polygon, Base, Ethereum +11

The Standard
CDPs · Arbitrum
The Standard is an over-collateralized stablecoin protocol on Arbitrum that offers 0% interest borrowing against yield-earning smart vaults. Its TVL is very small, so treat it as a niche, higher-risk product.

xDollar

Gravita Protocol
CDPs · Ethereum, Optimism, Arbitrum +4
Gravita Protocol is an ETH-centric borrowing protocol where users lock liquid staking tokens and yield-bearing assets to mint the GRAI debt token. It is live on several chains but holds a small amount of value, so treat it as a niche, higher-risk CDP.
