About VycoLend

VycoLend is a decentralized, transparent and non-custodial lending protocol built for layer2 chains where users can participate as lenders or borrowers in isolated lending pools.

In the early stage, VycoLend aims to build high-velocity markets for more traditional crypto-asset lending services; with one unified margin account, users can earn interest on deposits and borrow from shared liquidity pools against collateral. In the later stage, VycoLend’s mission is to make institutional-grade financial products and services typically focused on organizations or high-net-worth individuals. Services generally combine our expertise in institutional finance and blockchain technology and the use of our funds and protocols to help our clients achieve their goals.
