Everything you need to know about borrowing on Hedge Protocol.

What is Hedge?

Hedge is a lending protocol on Solana. You deposit memecoins or tokenized stocks as collateral, and borrow SOL against them — without selling your assets. You keep full upside exposure while accessing liquidity.

How borrowing works

  1. Connect your Solana wallet — Phantom, Backpack, or Solflare.
  2. Select collateral — pick an asset and enter the amount you want to deposit.
  3. Review your quote — see the real-time USD value, LTV applied, and SOL you'll receive.
  4. Send collateral — approve the transaction. Your tokens are sent to the Hedge treasury.
  5. Receive SOL — our team reviews your request and sends SOL to your wallet within 5 minutes.

Supported assets

We accept both memecoins and tokenized stocks (Backed Finance xStocks) as collateral:

  • Memecoins: BONK, WIF, POPCAT, MYRO
  • Tokenized Stocks: Apple (AAPLx), Tesla (TSLAx), NVIDIA (NVDAx), Microsoft (MSFTx)

LTV ratios range from 75% to 90% depending on the asset. Tokenized stocks generally get higher LTV due to lower volatility.

LTV (Loan-to-Value)

LTV determines how much SOL you can borrow relative to your collateral's value. For example, if you deposit $100 worth of BONK at 80% LTV, you can borrow up to $80 worth of SOL.

AssetMax LTV
BONK80%
WIF80%
POPCAT75%
MYRO75%
AAPLx90%
TSLAx85%
NVDAx88%
MSFTx90%

Repaying your loan

  1. Go to your Dashboard.
  2. Find your active loan and click Repay.
  3. Send the exact SOL amount back to the treasury wallet shown.
  4. Important: Use the same wallet you borrowed with. Payments from other wallets are rejected.
  5. Paste the transaction signature — the system verifies it on-chain automatically.
  6. Once confirmed, your collateral is returned to your wallet.

What if my request is rejected?

If we reject a borrow request, your collateral is refunded in full. You'll see a “Refunded” status on your dashboard with a link to the refund transaction on Solscan.

On-chain credit score

Every repayment you make builds your on-chain credit score. This score is stored on Solana and factors in:

  • Repayment history (on-time vs late)
  • Collateral quality
  • Utilization rate
  • Account age

Higher scores will unlock better LTV ratios and priority processing in future updates.

Security

  • All collateral transfers are verified on-chain via Helius RPC before any request is logged.
  • Repayment transactions are verified for sender, amount, and timing.
  • Transaction signatures cannot be reused across multiple requests.
  • No smart contracts — funds are held in a multisig treasury and managed by the team.
