A global lending platform is a digital service that enables individuals and institutions worldwide to borrow and lend capital, often across national borders, utilizing a standardized system. In the context of digital assets, these platforms leverage blockchain technology to facilitate decentralized lending and borrowing of cryptocurrencies or stablecoins. They operate without traditional intermediaries, using smart contracts to automate loan agreements, collateral management, and interest payments. Such platforms aim to provide accessible and efficient capital markets globally.
