Folks Finance is proud to officially integrate the Avalanche network into its crosschain lending protocol and DeFi suite. Avalanche users can now deposit and borrow on Avalanche and other integrated networks from a single account.

With the addition of Avalanche, Folks’ users can enjoy fast transactions and low fees, expanding their opportunities for lending, borrowing, and trading. Avalanche’s well-rounded capabilities align with Folks Finance’s requirements for building more accessible, efficient, and user-friendly onchain financial tools.

Your DeFi Home

Folks’ xChain app puts bridging and gas fees in the background. It’s built for those who enjoy making the most of opportunities across the entire crypto ecosystem, and need to access different chains quickly and easily.

Imagine you hold assets in multiple ecosystems, but an opportunity for you appears on Avalanche. You need to collateralize some funds to borrow USDC — what do you do? You could bridge the funds from every other chain to Avalanche and spend a lot of time paying a lot of fees.

Or you could use Folks. Simply deposit from any chain and borrow on Avalanche effortlessly.
