The protocol also features staking of its native token, GAMMA, which is producing a variable yield of 7.04%, according to the Gamma website.

The token has performed well since the turn of the year, rising to 33 cents from a low of 7 cents. GAMMA has a market cap of $19.3 million and 2% market depth of $38,209, according to CoinGecko.

Market depth is a measure used to evaluate liquidity. It demonstrates how much capital is required to move an asset by a certain percentage based on the order book.

The Gamma protocol offers one product that is targeted at individuals and institutions as it offers a passive yield. Another is aimed at Web3 companies and decentralized autonomous organizations, offering consultation and back-tested strategies for treasuries.

While interest in Gamma has been muted since its 2021 introduction, Defillama data shows that it is one of the fastest-growing yield products this year with total value locked, market cap and fully diluted valuation all surging as the DeFi sector bounces back from a lackluster 2022. CoinDesk Indices' DeFi index has risen 59% to 1,056.49 since Jan. 1.
