Wyre and Bloqboard introduce OTC trading for MakerDAO CDPs

Wyre and Bloqboard introduce OTC trading for MakerDAO CDPs

Wyre, a blockchain enabled payment and exchange company and Bloqboard, a non-custodial blockchain asset lending platform, today announced a new market to the open financial system by adding the ability to sell and repay large MakerDAO CDPs in an over-the-counter trade. By allowing CDP holders to extract their collateral without needing to source DAI or MKR in the open market, Wyre and Bloqboard can offer an easy and efficient method for closing CDPs.

In order to facilitate these trades, Wyre will pay down the DAI and MKR owed on a user’s CDP and return the net value of the CDP’s collateral to the user (minus a small liquidity discount). Users that have a CDP with over 200,000 DAI drawn can visit Bloqboard to initiate a trade.

Several use cases for CDPs have emerged over the past year, with some utilizing the MakerDAO system to free up working capital in order to fund ongoing expenses, while others are utilizing the system to lever up their investments. The secondary market for CDPs will allow users who have already spent the proceeds of their loan to extract the remaining value of their collateral in one transaction.

By adding this flexibility, CDPs become more practical for a wider range of purposes and at a larger scale than that currently enabled by this relatively immature market. While the current process for executing one of these trades with Wyre is similar to manual OTC trading, in the future the aim is to build a trust-minimized and automated secondary market for CDPs.

[perfectpullquote align=”full” bordertop=”false” cite=”The Bloqboard Team” link=”” color=”” class=”” size=””]”We believe that building a vibrant market for CDPs benefits MakerDAO as a whole, as it can relieve CDP owners who may otherwise be stuck in their debt position, and it also provides market makers who are trading DAI with an avenue to effectively redeem the collateral that backs DAI. If you have a Maker CDP with greater than $200,000 DAI drawn and would like to pay it down, please visit Bloqboard. Bloqboard also provides a convenient platform for managing CDPs and other open finance products all from a single interface.”[/perfectpullquote]

Collateralized Debt Position Smart Contracts

Anyone who has collateral assets can leverage them to generate Dai on the Maker Platform through Maker’s unique smart contracts known as Collateralized Debt Positions. A Collateral Asset is a digital asset that the decentralized Maker Governance process has input into the system.

CDPs hold collateral assets deposited by a user and permit this user to generate Dai, but generating Dai also accrues debt. This debt effectively locks the deposited collateral assets inside the CDP until it is later covered by paying back an equivalent amount of Dai, at which point the owner can again withdraw their collateral. Active CDPs are always collateralized in excess, meaning that the value of the collateral is higher than the value of the debt.

Bloqboard

Bloqboard is a digital asset lending platform for collateralized loans originated, settled, serviced and managed on the Ethereum blockchain. Powered by decentralized lending protocols Dharma and Compound, Bloqboard engineers on-chain lending solutions for users of digital wallets, trading platforms, exchanges, asset managers, custodians.
