# Stormbit Finance > Pure Lending Stormbit is a decentralized lending protocol on Arbitrum where loans are priced at origination using ERC-4626 vaults and put-option hedging, eliminating liquidations during the loan term. Stormbit is a decentralized borrowing and lending protocol on Arbitrum that checks LTV only at origination, preventing liquidations during the loan term. Lenders deposit USDC into ERC-4626 vaults and earn yield from volatility premiums embedded in borrower rates. Borrowers post BTC or ETH as collateral and receive fixed-rate terms priced upfront via the Underwriting Surface (LTV × Duration × Volatility). Undeployed USDC earns additional base yield through an Aave V3 integration. The protocol is audited by Pashov and Cantina. - Type: Company - Sector: Finance - Status: Active - Founded: 2024-04-01 - Profile: https://thegrid.id/profiles/stormbit_finance ## Products - [Stormbit Lending Platform](https://thegrid.id/profiles/stormbit_finance): Stormbit is a decentralized lending protocol on Arbitrum where borrowers post BTC or ETH as collateral and receive fixed-rate loans priced at origination.
