Lantern Finance is proud to announce support for XDC (XinFin Digital Contract).

Starting today, you can borrow against your XDC holdings at up to a 25% loan-to-value ratio with the same security and protection you expect from Lantern.

Loan Terms

  • Up to 25% LTV

  • 13% annual interest + 2% upfront fee

  • Borrow from $1,000

XDC is the native asset of the XDC Network. Since its mainnet launch in 2019, XDC network has processed over 801 million transactions and currently holds $717M+ in tokenized real-world assets on-chain.

Why 25% LTV?

XDC is an institutionally supported asset, but like most mid-cap tokens, its liquidity has practical ceilings. We set the LTV at 25% to give our borrowers the most protection possible while still unlocking meaningful capital.

At 25% LTV, XDC would need to drop 61.5% before reaching margin call territory.

That's a substantial buffer.

Same Lantern Protection

These new assets come with the same infrastructure that's kept our borrowers safe:

  • BitGo cold storage: Your collateral sits in institutional-grade custody with $250M insurance coverage.

  • 72-hour grace period: If you hit a margin call, you get three days to add collateral or pay down debt.

  • No liquidation fees: We don't profit from your bad days. Our revenue comes from interest payments, not from liquidating your positions.

Here’s our updated margin call and liquidation policy: https://lantern.finance/blog/changes-to-our-margin-call-and-liquidation-policy

How It Works

  1. Deposit your XDC as collateral

  2. Receive up to 25% of its value in USDC or USD

  3. Pay interest-only monthly payments (13% annually)

  4. Get your crypto back when you repay the loan

Your collateral stays in BitGo custody the entire time.

Same-day funding to banks is available for applications submitted before 3 PM ET on weekdays. With USDC, you can expect your funds to arrive on nights and weekends as well.
