Lending: Guide for Lenders
Put your SUI or TKT to work by funding collateralized loans and earning a yield.
1. Finding Loan Requests
Navigate to the "/lending" page to browse all open LoanRequests. Each card displays the NFT being offered as collateral and the terms proposed by the borrower.
2. Evaluating a Request
As a lender, you are responsible for assessing the value of the collateral relative to the loan amount. Consider:
- The Asset: Is the collateral a desirable and valuable
ExperienceNFT? - The Terms: Does the interest (Repayment Amount - Principal Amount) represent a good return for the risk and duration?
3. Funding a Loan
If you find a request you'd like to fund:
- Click the "Fund Loan" button.
- A confirmation modal will summarize the terms.
- When you approve the transaction, the
principal amountis sent from your wallet to the borrower. Your wallet address is now recorded in a newActiveLoanobject as the lender.
4. Managing Your Active Loans
You can view all the loans you have funded in your Dashboard under the "My Loans" tab in the "Loans I've Lended" section.
5. Outcomes
- Successful Repayment: When the borrower repays the loan, you will automatically receive the full repayment amount in your wallet. The platform fee is deducted from your profit, not the principal.
- Default & Liquidation: If the borrower does not repay the loan by the due date, the loan is considered in default. A "Liquidate" button will appear on the loan card in your dashboard. Clicking this will trigger a transaction that transfers the collateralized NFT or Fraction directly to your wallet, settling the debt.
