Enter Wildcat, where uncollateralized lending meets blockchain and market makers borrow crypto on a promise. Think of this protocol like a crypto-native credit card for institutions, except the card is your wallet, and if the borrower defaults, you’re the one left holding the bag.

Wildcat *does not* assess credit risk, it *does not* guarantee repayment, and it *is not* regulated by any financial authority. What it *does *offer is frictionless access to above-market yields for anyone with a crypto wallet and the willingness to lend on trust alone.

*Today, we’re exploring uncollateralized crypto lending through Wildcat! *👇
