# EVC (Ethereum Vault Connector)

The Ethereum Vault Connector (EVC) is a free, open-source tool from Euler Labs that makes it easier to build and connect lending markets in DeFi.&#x20;

Essentially, it's a foundation for creating custom crypto lending and borrowing products by helping crypto lending vaults talk to each other and work together.&#x20;

It lets developers build new DeFi products, like lending apps or stablecoins, without starting from scratch. It’s ungoverned, has no fees, and is designed to be a public tool for everyone.

Some of the possibilities with EVC:

* Vaults can use each other’s deposits as collateral, so users don’t need to move their assets around to borrow or lend.
* Markets can be created with any token, such as standard tokens, NFTs, real world assets, or even uncollateralized loans.
* Set up smart features like automatic trades, custom liquidations, or position managers.
* Combine multiple actions (like lending and borrowing) into one transaction to save time and gas fees.
