how is it possible? When you lend your assets, someone can give it to other person. You cannot keep ownership of something others control?
- rawtxapp 6y agoI believe he might be referring to flash loans, essentially the borrowed money is returned to you within the same transaction that borrowed it + interest.
- homakov 6y agoI don't agree with calling flash loans loans. Money isn't borrowed, as you don't posses them even for a second. Instead it's more like "offer me an atomic transaction that will make me money, and I will run it with my liquidity". See: i'm not giving you my liquidity, i merely choose to use your strategy which is atomic, and you cannot change your mind and steal the money halfway (as in borrowing).
