• Shiba Inu is launching Shib Finance, a DeFi platform offering lending, borrowing, and savings.
• The platform will feature reputation-based lending, allowing users to borrow without heavy collateral.

Shib has announced that it will launch a Decentralised Finance (DeFi) platform known as Shib Finance. This new initiative is a significant development in the growth of the Shiba Inu ecosystem, which aims to build on its background of meme-based cryptocurrency to become a larger financial ecosystem. Shiba Inu’s marketing specialist, Lucie, revealed the update, integrating a range of DeFi instruments to benefit individual users and corporations in the SHIB ecosystem.

Shib Finance’s Core Features

Shib Finance will introduce several significant functions unique to most DeFi projects’ capabilities. This will offer lending, borrowing, and saving solutions, focusing on decentralization and consumers.

One of the primary ways Shib Finance stands out is in lending. Shib Finance will also bring forward Reputation-Based Lending, which, in contrast to most platforms, leans on collateral-based models.

This system will ensure that users who have been proven valuable and reliable in paying back their loans will be granted loans. Also, they will not be required to provide a lot of collateral as security. Some of the key features that apply to this feature are the Shib Attestation, Karma Engine, and a Privacy-Powered Identity Layer that will work to prove the user’s worth within the system.

Additionally, businesses with a strong on-chain rating could benefit from getting undercollateralized loans, which, in turn, unlock fresh financial prospects within the SHIB ecosystem. Shib Finance is one of the few lending platforms offering this feature to users, while most existing DeFi lending platforms only afford this feature to institutional investors.

Shib Finance was launched to bring all the DeFi tools in one place and improve users’ financial liberty. In addition to lending and borrowing, the platform will have a saving vault feature that enables users to store their money and make profits automatically.

It will feature synthetic assets to let users hedge multiple markets simultaneously and incorporate privacy-preserving identity verification solutions to ensure security. Shiba Inu’s marketing team has also clarified that Shib Finance simplifies borrowing, saving, and earning more for the SHIB community.
