UniLend: Decentralized Spot Trading With Borrowing and Lending Functionalities.

Decentralized Finance is here to stay, and it is shaking the financial world that we once knew. Before the coming of UniLend, the decentralized finance protocols in existence usually hosted thirty crypto assets out of the thousands of crypto assets that exist. UniLend came to close to the ravine by ensuring that every token, as well as its users, can enjoy the perks of decentralized finance technology.

This platform believes that permitting every crypto to get involved in DeFi free market would improve the liquidity of the ecosystem by astronomical figures. UniLend is different from its competitors, being that it acts as a permissionless decentralized protocol that offers money market facilities, spot trading services, as well as lending infrastructure via the usage of smart contracts.

A Problem with Existing DeFi Platforms

It’s not news that existing DeFi platforms tend to be stringent with which projects that allow being in their pool. This barrier has made a lot of assets to be unable to participate in the ecosystem.
Lenders in multi-asset pools usually have to worry their heads about the risk that is linked with their assets being lent. This emanates from the fact that they do not have control over the collateral that their funds are lent against. They can’t determine what collateral is used.
UniLend solves the problems that are common in existing platforms.

The Features

As a permissionless protocol, Unilend is giving users a great deal of digital assets. We will look at some features of the UniLend Protocol.
