O2O Capital's Gaffney argues onchain real-world asset lending needs fixed rates

Peter Gaffney of O2O Capital Partners argues that borrowing against real-world assets onchain still runs through variable-rate pools and that fixed-rate, fixed-term lending is the missing piece. He also claims a 5% shift in Sky and Ethena reserves could create $1.8 billion of demand for real-world assets.
