Recently, the NFT lending platform BendDAO experienced a liquidity crisis, mainly due to the deterioration of liquidity in the NFT bear market cycle and the problem of BendDAO's own mechanism design, which led to the insolvency. The financialization of NFT is still in the exploratory stage. Let us analyze the current status of mainstream NFT lending platforms from the perspective of data.
At present, there are five head projects of mainstream NFT lending platforms, BendDAO, NFTfi, Pine Protocol, Arcade.xyz (formerly Pawn.fi) and JPEGd. Among them, NFTfi and Arcade.xyz use the p2p mechanism,
BendDAO, Pine Protocol and JPEGd are p2pool mechanisms.
Source of platform profit:
NFTfi: 5% of the loan amount
BendDAO: 30% of loan interest
Arcade.xyz: The platform does not charge fees
JPEGd: 2% of the pledged NFT value as interest and 0.5% as withdrawal fee
Pine Protocol: 0.01ETH + 0.35% of loan amount
Around August 23, the liquidity of BendDAO’s lending pool was already lower than the loan amount, which means that the vast majority of ETH depositors cannot withdraw ETH from the protocol immediately, and can only wait for NFT mortgagers to actively repay the loan to release liquidity. Or the NFT in the auction can be successfully liquidated.
