Understanding Epochs & Clearing Periods

Kasu operates on a unique time-based system of epochs (being a 7-day period) and Clearing Periods (being the final 48 hours of each epoch). Understanding how epochs and Clearing Periods work is important to understanding Kasu’s approach to efficient private credit lending and operational security.

While epochs introduce a slight delay between submitting Lending and Withdrawal Requests, along with key related actions and their execution, they allow Kasu to manage the liquidity requirements of Lending Strategies more efficiently and securely, benefiting all Lenders.
