Blur Lending platform allows lenders to set their interest rates and loan-to-value ratios. Blur lending plat offers loans with a “fixed rate” and “no expiry.” These loan rates are made on a peer-peer basis without intermediary oracles to set collateralization ratios.
Blend lets users access expensive blue-chip NFTs for a small down payment. Blur users can only use Blend on NFT collections, including Azuki, CryptoPunks, and Milady Maker. The platform recently added support for Bored Ape Yacht Club, Mutant Ape Yacht Club, and Otherdeed for Otherside NFT collections. Binance NFT is anticipated to rival Blur in NFT lending market dominance.
