Great looking project!

How does Ethlend differ from something like SALT? Are they a competitor to you doing same/similar things. What will you be doing differently. They have a bit of a head start on you so interested in how you'll get ahead

Great looking project!

How does Ethlend differ from something like SALT? Are they a competitor to you doing same/similar things. What will you be doing differently. They have a bit of a head start on you so interested in how you'll get ahead

Hi, good question! Although, I dont believe that they have a head start since we have a basic alpha dapp already running from May 2017 on main Ethereum network. 

But here are the differences between the competition:

How ETHLend differs from the competition

Functionally, the known competition of ETHLend uses ERC-20 tokens as a collateral to borrow FIAT currencies such as USD. While such function might be suitable, ETHLend is emphasising in pledging ERC-20 to receive cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum or Bitcoin. Our ideal aim is to create financial tools for the crypto economy. However, we shall adopt FIAT-pegging as well which means that one could use FIAT currencies as a base calculation and send transactions by using Ethereum.

What makes ETHLend different from other ventures is that the team delivered their first ever prototype of the decentralized lending application this May. Based on the practical findings, the team wrote the white paper on decentralized lending. The ETHLend considers this as an edge since ideas that are good in theory might not hold in practice. Hence, we created proof-of-concept that our users can already adopt.

Technically ETHLend differs from others that the application is fully decentralized. Decentralization provides more security by design since all transactions are performed via Smart Contract. Therefore, the participants in a loan agreement do not need to trust ETHLend or the counterparty. Such solutions provides full transparent market since all transactions are broadcasted in the blockchain which can be explored by anyone.

Moreover, ETHLend is open to all participants from all parts of the world and the transactions are done peer to peer. We do not limited the market in any way and cannot interrupt in the lending. Participants are free to choose the parameters. Being free means that the application is open for banks, investment funds, companies and consumer end users. Never such wide-scale lending market has been deployed before. With ETHLend you can run a lending institution of your own.

ETHLend Partners with Bloom for Credit Ratings



Since May 2017 when ETHLend deployed the first live decentralized lending application on the Ethereum main network, we have been researching several options to provide sound lending experience for lenders and borrowers to minimize default risk.

Accordingly with our roadmap, ETHLend will develop the decentralized credit rating where centralized and decentralized credit rating systems can be used to minimize credit risk and conduct KYC on lending.

Today, we are happy to announce that Bloom is partnering with us on providing the ability to use local credit institutions' credit scores for blockchain loans and in case of defaults, these defaults can be reported back to the credit rating agencies. With Bloom, we are providing more secure lending on our reputation based lending side.

Bloom was amazed on how far ETHLend is on the Solidity development. Their project is awesome and Bloom has a great team - we have the right combination here!
