Loan and Collateral Management

Use Case: Offer Crypto-Backed Loans

Real-Time Settlement of Perpetuals

Use Case: Power Lightning-Fast Perp Trading

Deliver real-time settlement for perpetual contracts. With Zerohash, profits and losses are updated instantly at the margin level, giving your users a faster, smoother, and more transparent trading experience.

Collateral Movements

To support collateral management activities, zerohash enables platforms to generate custom collateral account types. For example, loan collateral can be tied up by transferring participant available funds to a loan_collateral account type.

Collateral Locking

Collateralized assets are restricted from trading or withdrawal. Zerohash enforces these constraints via real-time credit checks on all account operations (e.g., buy, sell, withdraw).

Collateral Marking

zerohash provides real-time (latest tick) and historical (OHLCV) market data API endpoints in order to price collateral funds to trigger margin calls.
