There are two types of loans:flexible and stable. However, the interest rates and borrowing limits depend on the crypto asset you intend to borrow and whether you are a VIP or regular user. Interest is also calculated hourly or annually.

The two loan types have conditions that appeal to different users based on how much you intend to borrow and the interest rate.

Flexible Rate Loan

This isolated, overcollateralized, open-term loan product allows you to borrow cryptocurrencies without committing to a specific loan term using your crypto assets as collateral. There is interest on borrowed cryptocurrencies with this loan option, and the interest rate is determined by the type of cryptocurrency being borrowed and the current market conditions. Interest is accrued every minute and is added to the total outstanding loan balance. You can repay your loans at any time without penalty.

You can also use borrowed cryptocurrencies for various purposes, such as trading, margin trading, or staking.

Stable Rate Loan

This loan type allows you to borrow USDT or BUSD against your cryptocurrency holdings. The loan is collateralized, meaning you must provide with an equivalent cryptocurrency. The interest rate for a stable loan is fixed and based on the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio–the percentage of the collateralized loan. For example, if the LTV ratio is 50%, you must provide twice as much crypto as you are borrowing.

This loan type is a good option if you need access to cash quickly and have crypto holdings that you are willing to use as collateral. The fixed interest rate makes it easy to budget for repayments, and the LTV ratio ensures you stay within budget.
