Featuring Atlendis in April 2022

• “Des entreprises qui épargnent en crypto: bientôt la norme,” by Matthieu Chereau in Forbes:

“Tomorrow, loan services to companies via DeFi services? This is what the startup Atlendis will soon be offering: non-collateralized loans for companies that will shortly be able to enjoy revolving credit lines. [...] This will give companies much more flexibility to finance their development and sometimes more serenity as well. A small revolution is in store for CEOs and CFOs, who will see their daily lives transformed by this innovative solution!”

• Atlendis Labs veut simplifier l’accès des institutionnels aux prêts crypto, by Christophe Auffray in Coins.fr:

"Our protocol can be seen as a decentralized marketplace for credit lines," describes the Atlendis Labs CEO to define the company's business. These lines of credit correspond "in the jargon" to under-collateralized or uncollateralized loans. This differentiates it from Web3 practices where P2P loans are, on the contrary, over-collateralized with an average ratio between 100 and 150%. Borrowing 1 million dollars therefore requires putting up 1 to 1.5 million as collateral.” [...]

"We integrate with networks where protocols need liquidity. Eventually, we could therefore be on all blockchains [...]" 

• "Emprunter des cryptomonnaies en ligne, sans garantie et sans argent – voici comment faire," by Almaye for theblog.fr.

  "Blockchains are, as I mentioned above, very fundamentally and explicitly a counterculture movement that is trying to create and preserve something different from the mainstream."
