Our take
Most organizations looking to take out crypto loans have to already own a significant amount of crypto. Goldfinch solves this problem with its decentralized vending protocol.
Goldfinch allows organizations to receive crypto loans without requiring an existing crypto collateralization. The company's more varied approach to crypto lending has proven widely popular in developing countries. In early 2022, Goldfinch raised an impressive $25 million in funding to accelerate its growth. This is testament to rising demand for decentralized loan solutions.
Compared to collateral-based crypto loans, Goldfinch's loans are considered too risky for most US users. As such the company is focusing on international markets. This strategy seems to be paying off, with Goldfinch boasting around $40 million in active loans as of 2022.
