Liquidium
Liquidium is a decentralized Bitcoin lending protocol where users can borrow BTC against Ordinals, Runes, and BRC-20 tokens, and lend BTC to earn up to 380% APY. Borrowers can secure Bitcoin loans using their digital assets as collateral, with inscriptions safely locked in a Discreet Log Contract (DLC) until repayment, ensuring a secure and fast process. Lenders provide BTC and earn interest; if the borrower repays, the lender receives the BTC plus interest, and if not, the lender receives the collateral. All transactions are natively secured on the Bitcoin blockchain, with no wrapping or bridging, just Bitcoin. Liquidium's non-custodial escrows use DLCs to securely store collateral during a Bitcoin loan. It supports borrowing and lending against Bitcoin assets like Ordinals, Runes, and BRC-20 tokens. Lend your BTC and earn interest; each loan is secured by an inscription in a Bitcoin DLC.
