This paper introduces a mathematically optimal pricing mechanism for decentralized credit: the Reverse Kelly Automated Market Maker (rkAMM), the core engine of our proposed lending framework. By inverting the Kelly Criterion, traditionally used for optimal bet sizing, we construct a dynamic interest rate discovery protocol that explicitly prices individual loan risk. The rkAMM ingests real-time Probability of Default (PD) streams from an off-chain Explainable AI oracle and dynamically calculates the exact interest rate required to sustain target liquidity provider (LP) yields. We mathematically derive the Reverse Kelly pricing function (r = y1PDPD), proving its strictly convex superiority over Aave and Compound’s static utilization curves in managing capital efficiency. Furthermore, we deploy the rkAMM architecture via Solidity smart contracts, optimizing for gas-efficient 1e18 (WAD) floating-point arithmetic. To ensure decentralized transparency, our simulation infrastructure leverages MLflow for tracking yield hyperparameters, Data Version Control (DVC) linked to DagsHub for versioning Real-World Asset (RWA) data arrays, and localized edge-inference via Ollama (Llama-3) and Hugging Face (FinBERT) for zero-cost predictive modeling. Monte Carlo simulations across 10,000 macroeconomic stress scenarios confirm that the rkAMM maintains protocol solvency and stabilizes LP yields at 12-15% net of expected credit losses. This work provides the foundational financial engineering required to bridge the $2 trillion global supply chain finance gap using permissionless blockchain infrastructure.  \nKeywords: Automated Market Makers, Kelly Criterion, Decentralized Finance, Smart Contracts, Dynamic Pricing, Credit Risk, Real-World Assets, Machine Learning  \n∗ Corresponding Author.

However, the dominant lending protocols in this space, most notably Aave and Compound, rely on architectural primitives that severely limit their utility for real-world economic activity (Gudgeon et al. , 2020a; Perez et al. , 2021; Gudgeon et al. , 2020b) . These protocols utilize heuristic, piecewise-linear utilization curves to determine interest rates. Consequently, risk is managed not through precise algorithmic pricing, but through blunt over-collateralization, frequently requiring borrowers to post 150% to 200% of the loan value in highly liquid digital assets (Xu et al. , 2022; Tolmach et al. , 2021) .  \nWhile this model successfully secures protocol solvency against crypto-asset volatility (Qin et al. , 2021a; Klages-Mundt et al. , 2020), it is fundamentally incompatible with traditional supply chain finance and Small and Medium-sized Enterprise (SME) lending (Chen et al. , 2022; Meyer et al. , 2022) .
