Clearpool to launch corporate lending platform
Clearpool Prime will allow corporate borrowers to create pools of permitted borrowing on their own loan terms. Clearpool, a decentralized finance (DeFi) lending protocol, will launch its non-custodial corporate borrowing platform Clearpool Prime in the first quarter of this year, according to a blog post published Monday outlining its 2023 plans. After passing the know-your-customer checks, corporate borrowers will be able to create pools of authorized borrowings on Clearpool Prime with their own loan terms such as size, duration and interest rate. They will also be able to invite lenders to the pool. The news had a positive impact on the altcoin price. At press time, Clearpool was up 12.5% on a daily basis to $0.05232.
Clearpool is a blockchain-based lending marketplace that hosts borrowing pools between borrowers and lenders. When lenders provide liquidity to a pool, they receive in return the so-called pool-specific cpTokens. Holders of the protocol’s management token, CPOOL, can vote and stake tokens to earn rewards. According to data from Clearpool’s credit dashboard, approximately $350 million in stablecoin loans have been issued so far in Clearpool on the Ethereum and Polygon Blockchain.

Alchemix confirms buyback plan, altcoin price rises
The decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) behind crypto loan protocol Alchemix Finance on Monday approved a proposal to divert some of the cash that supports treasury and yield-enhancing activities into a token buyback program for local ALCX. Alchemix gives what it calls ‘self-repaying loans’ to users who issue crypto collateral in exchange for ‘alAssets’, which are often required to trade with their underlying assets. The protocol says protecting the peg is the top priority. Because, as with the crypto market turmoil in late 2022, he feels the pain when his synthetic assets stagger.
This has prompted Alchemix, which is in its heyday in 2021, to fight for short-term fixes that could help attract more users and increase deposits. The proposal by co-founder Scoopy Trooples, who goes by the nickname, aims to solve this problem by allocating some of Alchemix’s long-term capital in other ways. The impact of the news on the altcoin price was positive. At press time, ALCX was trading at $21.68, up 6.74% on a daily basis.
