# Single Asset Pools In Granite’s isolated market model, each market supports a single borrowable asset. This approach creates a clear and predictable risk profile, eliminating the interdependency between assets that can lead to cascading failures in pooled-risk protocols. By supporting single asset pools, Granite ensures that users are not exposed to the volatility and unpredictability of mixed asset pools inherent in most DeFi lending protocols. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
