Frequently asked questions
What is a DeFi mortgage?
A crypto-backed, long-duration loan built on pure DeFi mechanics - fixed-rate, tokenized, and composable with the rest of DeFi. Not a bank product.
What does 'tokenized by default' mean?
Every loan position is represented onchain as a token - auditable, transferable, and natively composable with other DeFi protocols.
Who funds the loans?
The community. Lenders and liquidity providers participate directly onchain. No single institutional funder - crowdsourced capital routed through the protocol.
What collateral is supported?
Blue-chip digital assets. Final eligibility depends on current program parameters.
How is this different from Aave or Compound?
OWN is built for long-term utility - multi-year duration, fixed-rate, structured like a mortgage. Aave-style protocols are variable-rate short-term leverage with instant liquidation risk.
Are there instant liquidations?
No. The structure is designed to avoid instant liquidation risk. Risk handling depends on agreed terms - review the security page and discuss your case with OWN.
