while generally true in case of borrowing fiat against crypto collateral a trusted (centralized if you will) arbiter is a feature not a bug as the fiat interface is always "centralized"For me, it creates unnecessary centralization, which contradicts the core principle of crypto for me decentralization.
I think debifi is exactly this, except 3/4 multisig.while generally true in case of borrowing fiat against crypto collateral a trusted (centralized if you will) arbiter is a feature not a bug as the fiat interface is always "centralized"
the ideal solution (simplified) should look like this:
borrower locks collateral to 2of3 multisig (2 parties and 1 arbiter both parties trust - otherwise no deal closed)
lender sends fiat
repayment date and interest are given
1) repaid in time including interest -> arbiter and borrower unlock collateral back to borrower
2) default -> arbiter and lender hand over the collateral to lender
easy as that, no tradfi bulls**t and unwanted complexity like installments, margin calls, topping up collateral, etc.
I must be missing something because it seems there is no such service on the market
That i do not know, sorry.A direct link to the repository , I can only find https://gitlab.com/debifi-public/debifi-app
debifi has margin calls involved which is a killer bug for me (yes, I'm complicated)I think debifi is exactly this, except 3/4 multisig.
these are the same people who were running hodl. hodl is 2/3 multisig, exactly as you describe.
for some reason (it might be in the second video i posted) they decided to have 3/4 in a more serious product.
or what difference you see from your ideal in D?

sure, initial LTV and/or interest cover undercollateralization - it simply makes the loan more expensive or more demanding when it comes to LTV - no magicwould you like to lend without?
margin calls become less an issue when volatility decreases - it is all the time.sure, initial LTV and/or interest cover undercollateralization - it simply makes the loan more expensive or more demanding when it comes to LTV - no magic
I don't agree on that...margin calls become less an issue when volatility decreases - it is all the time.
so LTV can go up too.
It is a free market afterall - anybody can go and lend without margin call and high LTV. .... and have a blast...
they just provide the tech
cheers,
Have to agree on that. But it is a lenders market still...I don't agree on that...
it has so many unwanted practical consequences and dramatically increases complexity - and all for literally no good reason
it doesn't mean it cannot be an optional feature of course if both parties prefer...
