LienTokens

LienTokens are tokenized debt positions created and held by Vaults upon loan origination. Each LienToken contains relevant information for the loan it represents (see Loan Terms). When a lien is fully paid off, its LienToken is burned.

LienTokens may be purchased for a reserve amount that is equal to the remaining debt on the lien with an additional penalty to compensate the gas costs of loan origination.

Liquidations

When the underlying collateral for a LienToken is liquidated, all received auction funds are used to repay the lien before being returned to the borrower. Any excess funds after the LienToken has been paid back are returned to the initial liquidated borrower.
