Onlend Unveils No-Code Infrastructure to Launch Custom Onchain Lending Apps

Built by a team with experience scaling a leading DeFi lending protocol, Onlend aims to make it easier for fintechs, asset managers, curators, and asset issuers to build and operate their own lending products. Onlend has publicly unveiled its decentralised infrastructure platform designed to let anyone create, launch, and operate their own onchain lending applications without building the underlying technology from scratch. The project is entering a market with considerable room for expansion. Global debt surpassed $350 trillion in early 2026, according to the Institute of International Finance, while active loans across DeFi protocols currently stand at approximately $33 billion, according to DefiLlama. Although the figures measure different markets, they illustrate the relatively small scale of onchain lending today. At the same time, the infrastructure supporting onchain financial activity continues to expand. The stablecoin market has grown beyond $300 billion, while the value of tokenized real-world assets has reached approximately $39 billion, creating new opportunities for lending products built around these assets. However, launching such products remains challenging. Existing lending protocols offer established markets but can limit how teams configure and operate their lending use cases. Building custom infrastructure, meanwhile, requires significant engineering resources and development time. Onlend addresses this gap with a permissionless, no-code platform that allows anyone to launch lending applications tailored to their own use-cases, users, and operational requirements. Through Onlend, builders can configure supported assets (with multi-collateral and multi-borrow optionality), collateral parameters, interest-rate models, price oracles, liquidation mechanisms, fees, and administrative permissions. Applications can operate with open or restricted access, use a customizable white-label interface, and remain actively managed or operate under immutable rules. One of its main technical differentiators is support for advanced interest-rate models beyond traditional utilization-based curves.
