Как оплачиваются комиссии?

After the Contract has been created, the applicable Origination fee from 0.5 to 1.5%, depending on the Contract's period (minimum 546 Satoshi), will be taken from the amount the Borrower locked in the multisig escrow address.

The Platform charges Origination fees in Bitcoin only.

Как рассчитывается комиссия платформы, сумма депозита и сумма погашения при создании контракта?

For example: the Loan amount is 10,000 USDT (price of 1 BTC is 10,000 USDT), LTV Ratio is 50%, Interest rate is 10%.

Origination fee (transaction fee included) is 1% of the Loan amount in BTC + the fixed transaction fee (txfee) of 0.0001 BTC. In this case, 1% of the Loan amount will be 100 USDT or 0.01 BTC. Adding a fixed txfee value to this amount, we get 0.0101 BTC (0.01 BTC + 0.0001 BTC).

Amount to be Deposited is calculated using the formula "(Loan Amount + Loan Amount * Interest rate) / LTV Ratio + Origination fee (transaction fee included)".

In this case, the deposited amount will be: "Loan amount of 10,000 USDT + Loan amount of 10,000 USDT * Interest rate of 10%) / LTV Ratio of 50% + Origination fee of 1% (transaction fee is 0.0001 BTC)", when converted into BTC, the Borrower needs to send to escrow: 2.2101 BTC (1 BTC + 1 BTC * 10%) / 50% + 0.0101 BTC).

Amount to be Repaid is calculated as "Loan amount + Loan amount * Interest rate". In our example, it will be 11,000 USDT (10,000 USDT + 10,000 USDT * 10%).

Как работает мультисиг эскроу?

The escrow is a P2SH Bitcoin multisignature address, which requires 2-out-of-3 keys to sign the transaction. Each time a Contract is created between two parties, the Platform generates a unique multisig escrow Bitcoin address. The Borrower then sends Bitcoin from his wallet to this escrow, and while the Bitcoin is locked in escrow, Lender sends Cryptocurrencies to the Borrower. After the Contract period ends, Lender and the Platform use their keys to release Bitcoin from escrow, and the Borrower receives the Bitcoin Collateral back in his wallet.

Что происходит в случае отмены контракта?

If a Contract was canceled before the Bitcoin was sent to the escrow address, nothing happens – both parties may continue using our Lending Platform, the same as prior to beginning the Contract.

If a Contract is canceled in the "Depositing" stage, and the Bitcoin has already been sent to the escrow address or was sent after the Contract was canceled, the Borrower makes the refund directly to his Bitcoin address, which he specifies during the refund process. Refund transaction fees for delivering the Bitcoin to the Borrower's address are deducted from the amount locked in escrow.

If a Contract is canceled in "Payment" status, the Admin must confirm the refund of BTC to the Borrower. Please contact [email protected] with your credentials and Contract ID.
