Thu 23rd Jul 2026
SmartCredit is positioning its platform as an alternative to automated market maker (AMM) liquidity pools, highlighting a common challenge liquidity providers face. **The Core Issue** When prices move sharply in AMM pools, arbitrageurs profit by rebalancing positions - essentially extracting value from liquidity providers who enable these trades. **SmartCredit's Approach** - Direct capital matching between lenders and individual borrowers - No AMM intermediary layer - Fixed-rate, fixed-term collateralized loans - Eliminates arbitrage extraction from liquidity providers The platform offers self-custodial lending with regulatory compliance, avoiding the bank run risks associated with money-market protocols like Aave or Compound.
