Klyro Finance operates as a Decentralized Finance (DeFi) solution, constructed on the Ethereum EVM framework. It empowers users to lend and borrow digital currencies, bypassing centralized intermediaries. Through Klyro Finance, users can accrue interest on their crypto assets, while borrowers can obtain funds without the constraints of conventional banking systems.
Klyro Finance boasts a range of functionalities, including:
Lending and Borrowing Dynamics: Klyro allows its users to accrue interest on their stored crypto while lending out their assets. Simultaneously, users can leverage the assets they've deposited as security to borrow others.
Responsive Interest Rate Model: Klyro operates on a fluid interest rate system, influenced by the prevailing demand and supply of assets on the platform. This ensures that rates adjust in harmony with real-time market conditions.
Overcollateralization Approach: To guarantee the solvency of borrowed amounts, Klyro mandates that borrowers deposit assets exceeding the borrowed value. This is to ensure the loans are well-backed.
Unhindered Accessibility: Klyro upholds a user-friendly approach by not imposing any minimum thresholds for deposits or withdrawals. Users are free to interact with the platform as they please.
cToken Representation: For clarity on the amount of assets a user has lent or borrowed, Klyro issues cTokens. These symbolize the real-time balance and interest accumulation.Future Governance Mechanisms: Looking ahead, Klyro plans to democratize its platform management. Owners of Klyro tokens will soon be empowered to influence the platform's evolution by voting on potential protocol modifications, be it interest rate tweaks or collateral requirements adjustments.
At the moment, we support MetaMask, but we are actively researching other potential options that might be introduced at launch.
Klyro Finance operates on the Ethereum EVM foundation. In the future, we'll consider transitioning to alternative chains if such a move benefits our platform and its key stakeholders, including users, liquidity contributors, investors, and our team.
Assets can be deposited into Klyro Finance. Once deposited, they can serve as collateral in a lending pool, allowing you to earn passive income. Additionally, these assets can be utilized to back an over-collateralized loan.
At the outset, certain limits might be imposed to safeguard the platform's integrity. The seasoned team at Klyro Finance prioritizes risk mitigation for our users. As the ecosystem evolves and assets stabilize with enhanced liquidity, we'll consider revising these constraints.
Klyro Finance is committed to endorsing assets characterized by top-tier security, stable pricing, and robust liquidity. To begin, we aim to support SMR, USDC, wBTC, wETH, and USDT. However, this selection is subject to reassessment upon the debut of Ethereum EVM.
Borrowing on Klyro Finance is anchored in a system of collateralization. This necessitates that before users can access any funds, they must first deposit a certain value of approved crypto assets as security. Here's a step-by-step rundown of the borrowing process on Klyro Finance:
Collateral Deposit: A user begins by depositing an approved asset, which serves as collateral, into Klyro Finance. The collateral's value must surpass the desired loan amount.
Asset Borrowing: With the collateral in place, users can borrow other assets supported by Klyro Finance. The maximum borrowing limit is contingent on the collateral ratio set by the platform.
Loan Repayment: Users have the flexibility to settle their loans either partially or in full whenever they choose. Interest accumulates in real-time on the loan's remaining balance and is applied upon repayment.
Collateral Withdrawal: Borrowers have the liberty to retrieve their collateral, provided it adequately backs the over-collateralized debt. Should the collateral's value dip beneath a specified ratio against the debt, borrowers might need to furnish additional collateral or address a portion (or all) of the debt to retain their set collateral ratio and steer clear of potential liquidation.
Liquidation: A borrower treads on thin ice when their collateral's worth sinks below a certain limit. In such situations, liquidation ensues. During liquidation, the collateral is auctioned off, albeit at a reduced rate, to clear the lingering loan amount.
It's crucial for users to understand that borrowing on Klyro necessitates vigilant tracking of the ratio between their collateral and debt. Given the often unpredictable nature of cryptocurrency values, and the platform's adaptive collateral criteria in sync with market dynamics, this monitoring is essential. To facilitate this, we've designed an intuitive tool, the "Lighthouse," integrated into the Dashboard. This tool offers a straightforward visual representation, simplifying the tracking process. Additionally, we're in the pipeline to introduce an email alert mechanism that will notify users about shifts in the risk profile of their debt position, should they opt for such notifications.
Lending on Klyro Finance is structured to enable users to contribute their approved crypto assets, thereby earning interest on these deposits. Here’s a systematic overview of the lending process on Klyro Finance:
Asset Deposit: Users contribute their chosen, supported assets to the platform. Each of these assets possesses its unique interest rate, primarily influenced by its respective demand and supply within the platform.
Acquisition of cTokens: Upon depositing assets into Klyro Finance, users are granted an equivalent sum of cTokens. These cTokens, which bear interest, signify the user’s proportionate claim on the deposited assets. For instance, a deposit of 10 SMR would yield 10 cSMR in return.
Interest Accumulation: Interest accrues on user's cTokens in a real-time manner. The specific interest rate hinges on the particular asset and may fluctuate based on its demand and supply dynamics, known as the utilization rate.
Asset Retrieval: Users have the liberty to reclaim their principal and accumulated interest whenever they desire, by cashing in their cTokens. On doing so, they obtain the original cryptocurrency alongside any interest they've garnered.
Reinvestment Option: Users are presented with the choice of plowing their interest back into Klyro Finance by re-depositing their cTokens. This avenue paves the way for compounded returns, given that the interest from cTokens is perpetually reinvested back into the system.
As previously highlighted, in the initial stages of the ecosystem's development, we might impose restrictions on the quantity of collateral or debt positions we accept. This is to ensure risk management, especially as we await the availability of heightened liquidity in certain assets.
It's imperative to mention that, as described earlier, all debt positions are mandated to be overcollateralized.
The interest rate is determined by the utilization rate of the lending pool and fluctuates based on the rise or decline in supply and demand.
Klyro Finance imposes a fee that differs across lending markets, derived as a percentage from the fees charged to borrowers. In future plans, the team aims to allocate a substantial portion of these fees to those who stake the Klyro token.
Loans on Klyro Finance are characterized by their indefinite nature, meaning they lack a predetermined end date or duration. For a borrower on Klyro Finance, it's imperative to adhere to a specific collateralization ratio to evade potential liquidation. This ratio is gauged by comparing the collateral's worth against the loan's value. If the collateral's value plunges beneath an established benchmark, the borrower's holdings could be liquidated to settle the remaining loan amount. Borrowers possess the flexibility to settle their loan whenever they wish, with interest continuously accumulating on the loan's residual amount. Consequently, the tenure of a Klyro Finance loan is largely governed by the borrower's actions, especially concerning their repayment decisions and timing.
They accumulate passive income through interest, which is determined by the ever-changing utilization rate and is automatically distributed over a period.
Users can withdraw at any moment, except in the rare situation where all funds are engaged by lenders. In such an improbable case, lenders stand to gain considerably since the interest disbursed will be exceptionally elevated, prompting:
Debt holders to settle their positions due to the steep variable interest rates.
Lenders to be motivated to contribute more assets as liquidity, given the attractive returns they can earn through interest.
Your deposits reside within smart contracts, which have undergone thorough scrutiny by Hashex. Moreover, these smart contracts are derivatives of Compound v2, which has proven its mettle by safeguarding billions of dollars in assets over an extended duration without any financial breaches. As previously highlighted, you can retrieve your funds, inclusive of accumulated interest and earned rewards, at any given time, barring the rare situation previously outlined.
Users retain full custody and authority over their assets, ensuring total ownership and control. When they provide their tokens, they are given LP tokens in return, representing their staked positions. These LP tokens can be retained indefinitely and can be redeemed whenever the user chooses. Crucially, the Klyro Team lacks access to the lending market smart contracts, meaning they cannot access your assets.
Klyro originates from Compound, a protocol renowned for its stringent security mechanisms and frequent audits.
Klyro underwent an audit audited by Hashex, a premier blockchain security agency.
With a team that possesses an extensive background in security, Klyro places paramount importance on safeguarding its platform. The team swiftly detects and rectifies any security vulnerabilities or potential risks.
Furthermore, Klyro conducts real-time surveillance of its smart contracts. As a result, any anomalies or dubious activities are promptly identified and scrutinized.
