Blur launches NFT P2P Perpetual Lending Protocol<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Blend lacks Oracle dependencies and expirations, enabling borrowing positions to remain open indefinitely until they are closed. Developers also assert that no fees would be collected from borrowers and lenders:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Blend matches users who want to borrow against their nonfungible collateral with whatever lender is willing to offer the most competitive rate, using a sophisticated off-chain offer protocol.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

3\/ Blur was built on the principle that tokens are eating the market of fungible assets and NFTs are eating the trillion-dollar market of non-fungible assets.<\/p>— Blur (@blur_io) May 1, 2023\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/blockquote>

Per its design, Blend automatically “rolls a borrowing position for as long as some lender is willing to lend that amount against the collateral.” No on-chain transactions are necessary unless one party decides to abandon the position or the interest rate changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

“In Blend, an NFT may be liquidated whenever a lender triggers a refinancing auction and nobody is willing to take over the debt at any interest rate.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

As part of a protocol for perpetual lending<\/a>, debtors and lenders extend the loan maturity date by a predetermined amount of time. If a lender wishes to terminate a loan against the borrower's wishes, an interest-rate “Dutch auction” is conducted for refinancing if the borrower has not repaid the debt at its expiration. The auction begins with a 0% refinance rate that gradually increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, developers explained that loan repayment is possible anytime on Blend. “If a borrower wants to change the amount they have borrowed or get a better interest rate, they can atomically take out a new loan against the collateral and use the new principal to repay the old loan,” they wrote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Launched in the third quarter of 2022, Blur began rewarding users on February 14 with “care packages” redeemable for BLUR tokens to increase trading activity.
