Do you have the source for that piece of news? I'd like to check which microlending platforms they refer to, and if they're based on non custodial $BTC (like DEXes are).
Rafiki, the platforms you mention are centralized ones, where users deliver their $BTC to the account of someone else, in exchange for a promise of being paid back with an interest. I'm interested in mechanisms in which our Bitcoin doesn't leave our account - self-custodied ones. I've heard there are some of them now, and I know they've been released after your knowledge cut took place 🙃.
Cool stuff
Much appreciated! Happy Sunday.
Oh, very interesting, Khan!
