The fixed-rate lending agreement Term Finance has completed a $5.5 million strategic financing, led by Electric Capital.

ChainCatcher news, the fixed-rate lending protocol Term Finance has completed a $5.5 million strategic financing round, led by Electric Capital, with participation from Arete Capital, Delta Blockchain Fund, Inception Capital, Blizzard Fund, Maelstrom, and others. The funds raised will be used to develop the protocol and accelerate Term's roadmap to simplify lending through features such as looping, passive lending, automation, and real-time alerts.

It is reported that Term is the first on-chain fixed-rate lending protocol to operate effectively at an institutional scale, providing over $100 million in loans through the protocol, with seven-figure liquidations occurring weekly.

According to RootData, Term is a non-custodial, scalable fixed-rate lending protocol that uses a novel on-chain auction dual-auction mechanism to determine the fixed rates for transactions between borrowers and lenders on the platform. It brings borrowers and lenders together in a fair and transparent auction process to establish a single market clearing rate that all participants will pay or receive, regardless of size.
