Can you provide an example of someone claiming defi can provide solutions for loans?

The best I can come up with logically is something like cardano's prism that effectively puts a persons encrypted identity on the blockchain which allows that person to reveal things like their grades etc. to future partners as a means of quickly establishing trust. Maybe something like that could enable defi loans? Even that is a stretch.



Searching for "DeFi loan" returns a deluge of results with https://defirate.com/loan/ at the top for me. They seem content claiming that secured loans are useful loans.


They are primarily useful when selling the collateral would involve paying income taxes. Instead you borrow against it.
