Dennis Dinkelmeyer (@DennisMidas), CEO of Midas (@MidasRWA), explains why non-USD stablecoins need term structures in onchain lending to scale. Borrowers want duration, he said, and term could bring more real-world loans and a more diversified currency mix. Listen to the panel for thoughts from Piotr Saczuk (@stablecoin_p) of Stablewatch (@stablewatchHQ), Benjamin Peillard (@Benjamin918_) of Cap (@CapApp), and Aidan Bristow of Gauntlet (@gauntlet_xyz).
Putting private credit on-chain can make settlement faster, improve transparency, and automate payments. But who bears the loss when a loan goes bad?

Cap has created a novel credit marketplace with a new participant, the funded underwriter.
Instead of a central team allocating capital, an independent party posts collateral and is rewarded for their judgment.
This is how Cap enables onchain credit to scale across industries.

@defidave of @CapApp on separating sustainable onchain yield from the kind that ends badly.

Lombardโs Bitcoin Onchain Credit Strategy is funded underwriting in practice.
By providing sound judgement, Lombard earns a premium.
Credit is evolving and Cap is leading the way.
Credit is the latest addition to Lombard's suite of yield opportunities. Bitcoin Onchain Credit Strategy (BTCoc) launched two months ago.
BTCoc posts LBTC as collateral on @symbioticfi to underwrite a USDC credit line from @CapApp to @FlowTraders.
In two months we scaled to $45m, generating close to 2% net APY on Bitcoin. As LBTC scales it's underlying active allocation managed by @Bitwise, the strategy targets 4% net.
Bitcoin will win.

When these companies collectively onboard billions of dollars, they demand a level of transparency and recourse few can provide.
Through funded underwriters, Cap is one of those few.
Cap is a credit platform powered by funded underwriting and backed by Franklin Templeton.
