All You Need to Know about Term Finance

Term Finance is a fixed-rate lending protocol built on Ethereum. It matches borrowers and lenders through regular auctions (usually every four weeks), with the settlement rate determined by the auction and the quotes provided by both parties. It is similar to peer-to-peer lending. The project's product logic is coherent, with a focus on fixed rates and interest rate smoothing, providing borrowers and lenders with more favorable rates. However, currently, there is low demand for fixed-rate lending in the market, and the four-week lending cycle set by the project is short, making the operation somewhat cumbersome. Overall, its attractiveness is limited. The project has not yet issued tokens, and the total locked volume is close to ten million.
