🐉The HODLer Market is Here
The HODLer Market is HODLing reimagined. This update will mark the start of a new era of DeFi lending: One in which users will have the power to create and own a lending market for any token. This will enable new possibilities for protocols and communities alike to hodl, borrow, and earn. Scroll down to learn more.😍
Enter the New Era
|
|
🌐Treasure Hunting Program
A coffer awaits those who get involved in the HODLer Market. A special NFT will be issued to HODLer Market makers, users, and contributors, which will make all stakeholders and members of the elite DeFiner HODLer Club. The reward: 10% of the interested accrued in the market will be distributed to the NFT HODLers.♣️
All Hands Hoay!

👨💻Product & Tech Updates
💎DeFiner 2.0 & HODLer Market
|
 |
We cannot emphasize enough how the HODLer Market plays a pivotal role in the DeFiner 2.0 roadmap. DeFiner 2.0 is bringing a truly permissionless and configurable DeFi lending protocol to the market. The HODLer Market will be just that: A place where anyone can build their lending market for any token.🚀
What are the advantages of the HODLer Market?
- Customized Lending Markets: Market creators will be able to produce a debt market on demand, configuring elements such as the loan currency (stables), collateral factor, market maturity date (HODLing period), APRs, mining rewards, and more.📑
- HODL Period: Projects will build loyal and strong communities by encouraging users to farm, HODL, and promote their tokens, instead of the typical farm-withdraw-sell practice.💎🤲
- Borrow When Needed: Users will have the option to use the market creator's token as collateral to borrow other loan currencies in the lending pool during a market downturn.💰
- Grow With Pride: We are all in this together. Both the market creators and their communities have a stake in the pool. Users become promoters and, as a result, the whole ecosystem grows and strengthens.📈
For all blockchain projects out there: What are you waiting for? Contact us and become one of the HODLer Market Launch Partners. Click on the link below to send a quick email to Jeral, our Customer Success Manager, to learn more.📨
HODL | Borrow | Earn
⚠️Note: The initial release will support only ERC-20 tokens (not rebase tokens). The HODLer Market will be available on both Ethereum and OEC chains and then expand to other chains, such as Polygon.

🎓"Blockchain" Simply Explained
|
|
Do you really know what a "blockchain" is? Perhaps, you have heard of the term on social media, your workplace, or on a city billboard promoting a technology that will "revolutionize the world." Blockchain is a buzz word that has been the topic of much attention lately; however, very few can wrap their heads around what a blockchain is or how it works. 😶🌫️
Those who truly understand a topic can simplify it in such a way that a 5-year old can digest it, or so they say. To put this theory to the test, we asked the community the question, "How do you explain 'Blockchain' to a 5-year old?"🤔
Here are the top 3:
- "You're playing a game of Uno with a few friends. The game cards are your data (blocks). Each successive card played is linked to the one before it (chain). Everyone is watching everyone else's move to make sure they are playing by the rules (validators). You don't know what cards each other have (encryption)… The idea is that the Blockchain is a linkage of records and people validating the transactions anonymously."
- "A has 2 candies, he gave one to his best playmate B, but he gave it to B in front of the whole class, so the whole class knows that A gave one to B and recorded it in his notebook, so B can never deny the candy A gave to him, because the whole class is a witness, this is the blockchain technology."
- "It's like owning a book with thousands of copies of the same book worldwide. Only the owners with a copy of the book can add a page to the book, and nobody can erase the content of the book. Therefore making it the go-to place for accurate information."
Maybe one day some of these examples will come in handy when explaining the concept of "Blockchain" to a child (or another adult). 🙃

✅Market Crash Recovery Plan
|
|
In one way or another, everyone in the space has felt the effects of the recent market collapse. We were curious to know what the community thought about the downtrend and how they planned to recover from it. Here are some of their responses:
- "Buying more!!! This is a discounted sale. Take advantage." - Vegetable_Ad9493 (Reddit).
- "Staking in good projects and waiting!" - AggressiveWafer29 (Reddit).
- "I 4x my holdings on these dips. Hold and wait 👌🏻" - Zuluuz (Reddit).
- "Hodl" - Comanche-Moon (Reddit).
- "Hold like I have to, pray things recover and never again forget to take profits." - GTi337 (Reddit).
- "Recover??? Am I the only one stoked that there are so many discounts in the market??? This is the time to stack not mourn." - Final_Ad_1147 (Reddit).
- "I'll be building, validating, DCA'ing and staking. 💙" - DKValidator (Reddit).
As Nelson Mandela once said, "It's not important how many times you fall, but how many times you rise." In any case, having a plan helps in getting you back on your feet. Get involved in our community!🌅

🤝University Club Partnerships
|
|
DeFiner is excited to announce a strategic partnership with Michigan Cryptocurrency Investment Club (MCIC). MCIC is a student-led organization at the University of Michigan dedicated to educating its members about the advantages of cryptocurrency and why they believe it is the currency of the future. With time, they also hope to add an investment fund with a variety of cryptocurrencies that have real-world applications. 😎
The DeFiner team wants to give students the opportunity to get involved in the DeFi space by offering internships, providing support, and inviting students to be active participants within the DeFiner ecosystem. University students will be able to use their marketing, design, and operations skills to earn some $FIN and bring DeFiner to the next level. The focus is to bring in every blockchain- and crypto-related student clubs in colleges and universities around the world. If you or anyone from your alma mater is aware of a student club that we can support, click on the link below to send us an email with their contact information. Thank you! 📧
