Flash Loans

Flash Loans on XOXNO let users borrow tokens without providing any collateral. The catch? The borrowed amount, plus a small fee, must be repaid within the same blockchain transaction. If repayment doesn’t happen, the transaction is reversed, as though it never occurred.


How Flash Loans Work

  • Executed and settled within a single block on the MultiversX blockchain.

  • All actions—borrowing, using funds, and repayment—happen simultaneously.

  • The receiver of the Flash Loan must be a smart contract located on the same shard as XOXNO’s contract.


Advanced Use Cases

  1. Arbitrage:

    • Exploiting price differences across platforms for profit.

  2. Debt Optimization:

    • Swapping or repaying loans efficiently in one transaction.

  3. Complex Strategies:

    • Leveraging temporary liquidity for advanced DeFi operations.


Why Flash Loans Are Unique

  • Risk-Free for the Protocol:

    • The blockchain ensures repayment within the transaction, or the loan fails.

  • Technical Requirements:

    • Flash Loans are typically used by developers or experienced users due to the complexity of implementation.
