[Update]:
It is the time to start talking about ETHlend again. ETHlend is at 1400 sat right now with a top-100 market cap. Alpha3 will probably be out in the next week. What do you guys think?
"Introduction of ETHlend:
EthLend aims to enable decentralized lending globally by allowing crypto to crypto borrowing. All borrowings will be secured by cryptocurrency, including ENS domains, as collateral. Everything is done through smart contracts so that the whole process can be done in a trustless and transparent fashion. Interest rates, premium and conditions are solely decided by the participants.
Sample use cases include:
Participating in ICOs by borrowing Ether using a user’s existing cryptocurrency holding.
Margin trading by increasing leverage.
Financing for blockchain startups for ICO marketing by pledging ICO tokens.
Unleashing the Ether locked in ENS domains.
EthLend allows crypto-pegged (return the same amount of cryptocurrency) and fiat-pegged (price of cryptocurrency in fiat is used for the loan value) loans depending on the users’ needs."
