About This Episode

In this episode of DevNTell, host Narb welcomes Faren and BowTiedHeron to present Honey Finance, an NFT liquidity platform. Originally built on Solana, the platform addresses the issue of NFT illiquidity by offering peer-to-contract loans with NFTs as collateral and yield farming opportunities through NFT vaults. The presentation covers the user interface, lending markets, liquidation mechanics using NFT AMMs, and the project's transition toward a multi-chain architecture. The founders also share their story of meeting through Developer DAO and their commitment to open-source development.
