> "DeFi Fixed Yield - 1-click Looping is a game changer?

I just saw Pendle post on LinkedIn about their in-app looping. Previously I have been using AAVE and Morpho to manage my borrow positions to loop my PT's, it takes a long time. But it seems like things just got a whole lot easier. This is surely a huge unlock for them now its accessible with 1 click, how much volume will this realistically attract? Will you guys be using this feature too?"
