Cap Money ($CAP)

Cap Money is a first on-chain institutional lending protocol on Ethereum, MegaETH, and Tempo that aims to solve opacity, lack of scalability, and flexibility in the private credit space.

It acts as an on-chain private credit platform that allows users to deposit stablecoins into the protocol and mint native stablecoin - $cUSD token, then stake it to receive yield-bearing $stcUSD. The funds deposited into Cap are then used by the protocol to provide private credit to Web3 companies on-chain.

To ensure user funds are safe, Cap Money MegaETH lending protocol implements a third-party layer as a replacement to the traditional bilateral lending model. In addition to lenders and borrowers, it integrates a delegator, also called an underwriter, that audits credit applications from Web3 projects, whitelist offers and defines acceptable credit terms.

To ensure the auditors act rightfully and prevent manipulation, Cap Money lending protocol requires delegators to stake their own capital as collateral, which is used to compensate users in case if specific credit fails. On the other hand, if the loan is successful, delegators earn a portion of the yield generated through the credit.

This way, companies receive a means of securing liquidity for their yield strategies or other operations, while being obligated to repay the funds at pre-determined interest rates enforced by smart contracts. Additionally they can be converted into the legal agreement to establish an even deeper layer of trust.
