# Why Equilibria

## Proven veToken Model

The efficacy of the veToken model has been proven time and again by successful projects such as Curve/Convex and Balancer/Aura. As we enter the era of vePendle, we are confident that this model will create a long-term alignment between stakers and the protocol, leading to exponential growth for our project.

## Newfound Market Opportunities

Pendle Finance is bringing the trillion-dollar traditional finance interest derivative market into DeFi, making it accessible to all. As the industry leader in this space, Pendle Finance is well-positioned to capture billions in Total Value Locked (TVL) and take a significant share of the market as the DeFi space grows.&#x20;

With an innovative approach and commitment to driving value for users, we are poised to revolutionize the world of interest derivatives and drive the DeFi industry forward.

## Beyond the Curve Wars

Equilibria’s vision is to drive innovation in the field. In other words, our goal is not to simply create a Convex layer on Pendle. We also intend to introduce several novel features, such as the YT market for vlEQB, limit orders for the PT/YT trading, and cross-chain implementation.

## Professional Team

Our team of contributors are DeFi experts, with a deep understanding of the veToken model and successful experience in developing and operating veToken aggregators. With multiple years of web2/web3 development experience, we have the skills and will to drive Equilibria Finance to success.
