The Forward Protocol project is perennially committed to its vision to make blockchain adoption seamless and rewarding for users. We are excited to announce that Liqd will now support our mission to deliver blockchain adoption toolkits delivered through a non-technical, user-friendly interface.

Our partnership with Liqd will facilitate a financial ecosystem where NFT holders and other DeFi users can access loan services and other innovative financial solutions and also earn returns on their holdings.

What is Liqd? 🔍

Liqd is an NFT marketplace built to enable the collateralization of NFTs. The platform enables individuals who hold NFT assets to unlock liquidity by borrowing against the value of their asset(s).

In turn, Liqd unlocks a peer-to-peer lending opportunity for crypto-holding individuals to lend capital for a set interest rate, backed by the value of the underlying NFT asset.

The project caters to borrowers, lenders, and NFT projects.

Borrowers can,

  • gain liquidity through loans issued against their valuable illiquid assets (NFTs)
  • set the term for loans (amount, time frame, APR)
  • assess lenders to choose the best loan offers and requirements for their personal needs

Lenders can

  • earn interest on their NFTs by offering them as flexible loan facilities
  • acquire blue-chip NFTs at a fraction of their price if a loan is unpaid

For NFT projects,

  • artists can gain liquidity even without selling their assets at inconvenient periods
  • It also encourages holders to remain within their preferred NFT communities without selling off their assets before they want to.

“Beyond all the hype, the NFT space is still developing and we are only scratching the surface of its potential. However, one of the biggest issues limiting participation within the space is liquidity. I believe the collaboration between projects like Liqd and Forward will play a vital role in solving this. We are delighted to be on this journey with Forward Protocol and excited to see how we can add value to the NFT space .”
