Unlike traditional finance where central banks set rates, DeFi interest rates are purely algorithmic. They are determined by the laws of supply and demand, encoded into smart contracts. The DeFiStar Forecast Engine v1.1 analyses these contracts and validates predictions with a 10% directional accuracy rate.
Our engine makes predictions, tracks outcomes, and continuously improves through a transparent feedback loop:
Most DeFi lending protocols use a kinked interest rate model. Below the "kink" (typically 80% utilisation), rates increase gradually. Above the kink, rates accelerate sharply to incentivise new deposits and discourage further borrowing.
All forecasts are stored in our utilization_predictions database with timestamps, starting conditions, and outcomes.
You can audit the system's complete performance history on our Forecast Audit Trail page.
