Apricot Lend provides standard lending and borrowing services: users deposit assets to earn interests, and use their deposited assets as collateral to borrow other assets. Apricot X-Farm provides cross-margin leveraged yield farming service for users to maximize yield from their existing holdings. Let's take USDT-USDC LP farming for example. In other leveraged yield farming protocols, users would need to own some amount of USDT and USDC before they can start farming the stablecoin pair. If they do not have USDT and USDC sitting in their wallet, they would have to swap other tokens into these stablecoins first. On Apricot X-Farm, users do not need to own any amount of USDT or USDC to start farming. Instead, they can collateralize their non-stablecoin assets to borrow the stablecoins with up to 3x leverage, and start farming USDT-USDC LP right away. These stablecoins will then be auto-pooled and staked for LP tokens, resulting in 3x farming yield.
