Locale Network: Lending COMPLETION REPORT - QUESTBOOK SEASON 2

Project Information

Locale Lending is a Web3 lending platform designed to revolutionize how loans are issued and managed. Our platform leverages dynamically adjusting smart contracts, zk-proofs, and real-time data feeds to deliver more efficient, transparent, and secure loan offerings. By utilizing Plaid APIs and off-chain computation, we provide an automated solution that continuously monitors borrowers’ financial data and adjusts loan terms based on real-time changes in their debt service ratio and financial health.

With a focus on SBA loans, our goal is to make affordable lending options more accessible to underserved communities while providing low-risk, government-backed investment opportunities to Web3 investors.

Grant Impact

The Arbitrum grant has been instrumental in accelerating the development of Locale Lending. It allowed us to integrate our smart contracts on the Arbitrum network, enhancing scalability and transaction efficiency. The grant supported the successful deployment of critical infrastructure components, including the setup of our custom multi-dapp layer-3 solution for off-chain loan assessments and real-time data handling via Cartesi.

With this funding, we were able to finalize key features such as borrower onboarding, loan applications, and the backend integration of Plaid APIs for real-time financial data processing. These advancements bring us closer to launching our full lending solution in the Web3 space.

Program Experience

The Questbook program and the Arbitrum ecosystem have provided an excellent platform for Locale Lending’s development. We received tremendous support throughout the process, which helped us refine our vision and implement our solution on Arbitrum Orbit. The Questbook team was responsive and provided valuable feedback at key stages of our project. Overall, the experience was seamless and empowering, giving us the tools and resources we needed to achieve our development milestones. We’re excited to continue building in the Arbitrum ecosystem and expand our partnership.
