There are currently no lending markets for Bifrost’s BNC token (although Bifrost is introducing money markets soon) so Interlay has an opportunity to capture some of the BNC lending market.
This proposal will:
• add BNC to the Interlay DEX (as BNC-INTR pair)
• create a money market for lending and borrowing BNC
Settings for the BNC lending market:
• You will be able to take out loans against BNC collateral at a “Loan to Value” of 51%. Over time if the value of your loan vs collateral rises to 76% then the collateral will be liquidated.
• The lending market targets an optimal utilization of 80%. It will start with a borrowing rate of 0.25% with the borrowing rate slowly increasing to 4% once 80% of the loaned BNC is borrowed. Above that, the borrowing rate quickly increases to 50% APR if 100% of the available BNC is borrowed.
• Overall the BNC money market has a supply/borrow cap of $350k.
This proposal DOES NOT allocate any INTR rewards for either the DEX LP or the lending market.
This proposal DOES NOT enable BNC use for vault collateral. That can be discussed by the community in a separate proposal.
Neither the Bifrost nor Interlay websites currently support transferring BNC. The Interlay team will be asked to add BNC transfers, DEX swaps, and BNC lending market to the website as part of this proposal.
The Interlay team wrote scripts and a guide to creating governance proposals to enable the Interlay community to execute on the many suggestions that the community makes, supporting further decentralization of protocol governance. Proposal creators are reimbursed from the Interlay treasury based on the effort required for each proposal.

Therefore this governance proposal will reimburse me 7 hrs x $100/hr = $700 in Interlay tokens. This amount is only paid if the entire proposal successfully executes.
Interlay is introducing a new lending market for Bifrost's BNC token. BNC will be added to the Interlay DEX and a money market will be created for lending and borrowing BNC. Loans can be taken out against BNC collateral at a "Loan to Value" of 51%. The lending market targets an optimal utilization of 80%. The BNC money market has a supply/borrow cap of $350k.
Great idea !
