How does it work?
Being a lending system where lenders and borrowers can interact, ETHLend allows for secured lending via the Ethereum blockchain. The lending process is straightforward. When borrowers issue a loan request, the request creates Smart contracts on the Blockchain. It inserts the loan amount, the interest rate and time borrowed. Once the token address and amount are inserted, it is then used as collateral for the loan, after getting all the information the lender can fund the loan.
