`What makes Chainflip Lending different`

Until now, BTC lending has relied on wrapped assets and permissioned infrastructure. That approach limits transparency, introduces synthetic risk, and makes true permissionless lending impossible.

`Native Assets Only`

Lend or borrow real BTC, ETH, SOL, and stablecoins directly. No wrapped tokens or bridges, just native assets, managed
by Chainflip’s vault system.

`Safe by Design`

Every loan is overcollateralised and priced using verified Chainlink oracles, with fallback feeds on Ethereum
and Arbitrum for extra reliability.

`Cross-Chain by Default`

Deposit collateral on one chain and borrow on another, all natively. Chainflip’s cross-chain settlement layer handles everything on-chain, removing friction between ecosystems.

Transparent & Composable

All positions, rates, and liquidations are avaliable for the user. Developers can integrate lending flows, monitoring, or liquidation data directly through our open API stack.

Battle-tested through Beta

Chainflip Lending launched as a closed beta to stress-test the protocol by supplying liquidity, taking out loans, and helping us catch edge cases. The Beta phase wrapped up February 4th, 2026. Now live for everyone.

Built on Chainflip Infrastructure

Chainflip Lending uses the same proven infrastructure that's processed $6B+ in cross-chain swaps. Assets are held in Chainflip Vaults using a 100-of-150 threshold signature scheme,
secured by a decentralized validator network. See docs for technical details.

Supply & Borrow to Earn More

Supply liquidity to earn yield, or borrow against your assets without selling them. The protocol works because both sides need each other: suppliers provide liquidity, borrowers create demand.

Supply liquidity to earn yield, or borrow against your assets without selling them. The protocol works both ways: suppliers provide liquidity, borrowers create demand.

Tap into stablecoin trading strategies that generate passive income, with no need to trade or track markets yourself.

Built for Active Participants

When borrowing goes up, suppliers earn better rates. When there's deep liquidity, borrowers have more options. The busier the protocol, the better it performs for everyone.

Deploy capital at desired spread for each stable asset. Fine-tuned to adapt with market conditions and optimise your returns.

Soft Liquidations Protect Borrowers

Chainflip gradually unwinds risky positions instead of instant liquidations. When markets get volatile, borrowers aren't wiped out but rather their positions adjust slowly.

What does over-collateralised mean?

It means you deposit more in collateral than the value of your loan. This ensures loans are safely backed, allows the protocol to recover funds through liquidations if prices drop, and keeps users and lending pools protected from insolvency.

What does over-collateralised mean?

Can I avoid being liquidated?

Yes. By keeping an eye on your loan-to-value (LTV) ratio and adding more collateral when markets move, you can stay safely above liquidation levels. The app shows your LTV in real time, helping you manage risk and maintain healthy positions even during volatile markets.

Can I avoid being liquidated?

What are the associated risks?

On-chain lending carries both technical and market risks. Smart-contract or oracle failures can cause loss if exploited, while high volatility can trigger liquidations. Use the product responsibly — DeFi always involves potential loss of funds.

What are the associated risks?

Will there be more seasons in the future?

We will announce future seasons once we’ve concluded Season 1. The amount of rewards, pools & their respective sides (supply/borrow) to be targeted, as well as durations of the seasons will most likely vary and will be different from Season 1 as we are fine-tuning them for a public launch scenario. Stay tuned for further announcements on this one.
