# Secured Line of Credit

A revolving credit facility secured by onchain cash flows and/or asset collateral.

The Secured Line of Credit is a revolving credit facility secured by onchain cash flows and/or asset collateral.

A single facility (a "Line of Credit", "Line", or "LoC") belongs to a single Borrower and can contain any number of individual **Credit Lines** (also called **Credit Positions**) from any number of Lenders, in any ERC-20 token, each at individually agreed interest rates and deadlines. Every Credit Position is represented onchain as an ERC-721 token.

**Benefits for Borrowers**

* Flexible, non-dilutive financing for OpEx and growth with no fixed repayment schedule
* On-demand liquidity — draw only what you need, when you need it
* Leverage future cash flows and revenue as security via the Spigot
* Syndication-ready — one facility can hold positions from many lenders, in multiple assets, on individual terms and deadlines
* Early Withdrawal Fees compensate the Borrower if a Lender withdraws committed capital before term

**Benefits for Lenders**

* Price borrower risk individually — every position has its own drawn rate, facility rate, and deadline
* Earn on committed capital even before it is drawn (the facility rate)
* Withdraw undrawn capital on demand (subject to any agreed Early Withdrawal Fee)
* Security from the Borrower's cash flows via the Spigot and/or from escrowed asset collateral
* Programmatically enforced recourse and a FIFO repayment queue
* Positions are ERC-721 tokens: transferable (where permitted), auditable, and usable as building blocks for vaults and secondary markets
