B.Protocol

B.Protocol is a decentralized liquidity backstop and risk mitigation platform designed to enhance the safety and capital efficiency of DeFi lending protocols. Founded in 2020, it initially launched a backstop liquidity protocol that enables a robust liquidation engine to support lending platforms. Its second version introduced the Backstop Automated Market Maker (BAMM), which allows anyone to participate in liquidation processes by providing liquidity, with over $300 million deployed to backstop supported platforms. This approach helps reduce liquidation risks and improve capital efficiency in DeFi.

Beyond liquidity provision, B.Protocol expanded its scope with RiskDAO, a sub-DAO focused on risk assessment and management for DeFi platforms. RiskDAO collaborates with research teams and developers to provide data-driven risk insights and governance. More recently, B.Protocol developed the Risk Oracle, an automated economic risk management tool that minimizes human intervention, aligning with DeFi’s ethos of self-execution and neutrality. The protocol is governed by the BPRO token and run by a community of risk-aware DeFi participants.

Developers and DeFi platforms can integrate B.Protocol’s smart contracts and APIs to leverage its backstop liquidity and risk management features. The protocol’s open documentation and community governance model facilitate transparent participation. Use cases include improving liquidation efficiency for lending platforms, enabling liquidity providers to earn from liquidation fees, and providing neutral risk data via the Risk Oracle. Comprehensive documentation and developer guides are available to onboard new users and integrators.
