Everyday investors can gain financing high -risk cryptographic loans
Estévez said Divine’s lenders are everyday people looking for solid returns. “Anyone can provide liquidity. We have designed the system in such a way that after accounting for non -compliance rates and [interest] Sacrifice rates, suppliers will always get profits. “
Divine is part of a growing group of high -risk cryptographic lenders that capitalize on the renewed market impulse and political tail winds, including the support of former president of the United States, Donald Trump.
Another startup, 3jane, recently raised $ 5.2 million of paradigm and sacrifices non -collateral credit lines in Ethereum. Unlike Divine, 3jane requires “verifiable tests” or assets or income, but there are still no guarantees.
3jane plans to introduce AI agents that follow the loan rules automatically, with the aim of reducing rates while enforcing reimbursement. Loans breached on their platform are sold to American debt collectors.
Other players such as Wildcat serve market manufacturers and commercial companies, which offer subcollerized loans with customizable terms. According to Wildcat’s advisor, Evgeny Gaevoy, “in case of non -compliance, lenders directly coordinate between them to search for resources.”
