01 — General
What is Luindy?
Luindy is a stablecoin wallet built on Solana. You can hold, send and receive USDT and USDC, lend your stablecoins for a fixed annual rate, borrow SOL against them, or apply for a stablecoin loan against assets you own. When you buy something of high value across borders, Luindy can also act as the escrow agent between you and the seller. It is one account for all of it.
Which coins does Luindy support?
Two stablecoins: USDC and USDT, both as SPL tokens on Solana. For borrowing, we also lend SOL against stablecoin collateral. We do not support any other tokens, and we do not plan to become a general-purpose exchange. Escrow deals also settle in USDC or USDT, even when what is being bought is another coin such as BTC.
Why only stablecoins?
Because that is what most people actually want from crypto: dollars that move like email. Focusing on two well-known stablecoins lets us make sending, earning and borrowing simple, and lets us concentrate our security work on a small surface.
Is Luindy live yet?
Yes. Open an account at app.luindy.com, confirm a few details, and your wallet is ready. Lending is available from Tier 1; borrowing needs identity verification (Tier 2), which is reviewed by a person, usually within 24 hours.
Who can use Luindy?
Anyone aged 18 or over, anywhere in the world. Luindy is available in every country and works the same everywhere. You can look up your country on the supported countries page. Companies can open a business account too: choose Business when you sign up.
Can I open an account for my company?
Yes. Choose Business when you sign up. The person opening the account verifies their own identity, then adds the company's registration details, its directors and everyone who owns 25% or more, and uploads the company's registration, ownership and address documents. A person reviews it, usually within two business days. Business accounts can hold, send, lend, borrow and use escrow like any other account.
02 — Wallet
How do I receive USDC or USDT?
Your Luindy account has a Solana address. Share it, or your QR code, with whoever is paying you. Send only USDC or USDT on the Solana network to that address. Funds usually arrive in under a second.
What does it cost to send stablecoins?
Sending to another Luindy user is free and instant. Sending to any other Solana address costs the Solana network fee only, typically a fraction of a cent. Luindy does not add a fee on top.
Can I send USDC from Ethereum or Tron to Luindy?
Not directly. Luindy is Solana-only. If you hold USDC or USDT on another network, use a reputable bridge or exchange to move it to Solana first. Sending tokens on the wrong network can result in permanent loss.
Is there a minimum balance?
No. You can hold any amount, including zero, with no monthly fee.
03 — Lending
How does fixed-rate lending work?
You choose an amount and a term (30, 90, 180 or 365 days). The rate is locked for that term. Your stablecoins fund secured loans to borrowers on Luindy, and the interest they pay is what you earn. At maturity, your principal and interest return to your wallet automatically.
Where does the yield come from?
From borrowers. Every loan on Luindy is secured: SOL loans by stablecoin collateral worth at least twice the loan, asset-backed loans by documented assets and a signed agreement, reviewed by a person. The interest borrowers pay is shared with lenders. We do not chase yield in external protocols, and we do not rehypothecate your funds.
Can I withdraw early?
Yes, after the first 7 days of a term. If you withdraw early, you receive your principal but forfeit the interest accrued for that term.
Is lending on Luindy risk-free?
No lending is risk-free. The main risks are borrower default, operational failure, and stablecoin de-pegging. We reduce these with conservative loan-to-value limits on SOL loans, careful review of asset-backed loans, and regular audits, and we explain each of them on the Lend page and in our risk disclosure.
04 — Borrowing
What can I borrow, and against what?
Two ways. Post USDC or USDT as collateral and borrow SOL instantly, up to 50% of the collateral at a fixed 6.0% APR. Or apply for a USDC or USDT loan against assets you can document, such as gold, or against your project or business; our team reviews the application, agrees terms with you, and pays the loan to your wallet.
What is loan-to-value (LTV)?
LTV is the size of your loan divided by the value of your collateral. If you post 1,000 USDC and borrow $500 of SOL, your LTV is 50%, the maximum you can open at. If SOL rises, your LTV rises. We warn you at 65% and 75%, and at 85% the loan is settled from your collateral. LTV only applies to SOL loans; asset-backed loans have a fixed repayment schedule instead.
What happens if SOL rises after I borrow it?
Your loan-to-value rises. We email you at 65% and again at 75% so you can repay some or all of the SOL. If it reaches 85%, we settle the loan: enough of your stablecoin collateral to cover what you owe plus a 5% fee is kept, and the rest is returned to your wallet.
Can I repay early?
Yes, any time, in full or in part, with no penalty. Interest stops accruing on the amount you repay.
05 — Escrow
What is Luindy escrow?
Luindy acts as the neutral escrow agent between a buyer and a seller. The buyer pays USDT or USDC into the deal's own escrow address on Solana, and we release it to the seller once the conditions in the signed agreement are met. It is built for international purchases: over-the-counter crypto trades, gold and other precious metals and stones, and other high-value goods.
Who can use escrow?
Individuals and companies, in any country. Either the buyer or the seller opens the deal in the Luindy app and invites the other party by email. Before any money moves, our team verifies both parties (identity, plus business verification for companies) and the deal itself. The minimum deal is 1,000 USDT or USDC.
How are the funds held?
Each deal has its own dedicated escrow address on Solana. The buyer funds it from their Luindy wallet in one step, or by sending USDT or USDC on Solana from any wallet. The money held there is kept apart from Luindy's own funds and from every other deal, and both parties can see it on-chain.
How long does it take?
Reviewing the parties and the deal usually takes up to 2 business days. Once the agreed conditions are met, either because the buyer confirms or because our team has verified the agreed evidence, we release the funds to the seller, usually within 1 business day.
What happens if there is a dispute?
Either party can raise a dispute in the app. The funds stay in escrow while our team works through the evidence both sides have uploaded, such as shipping documents, inspection certificates or transaction hashes, against the signed agreement. If the conditions for release are met, the seller is paid. If they are not, the buyer gets the money back.
How much does escrow cost?
1.5% on the first $50,000, 1.0% on the portion from $50,000 to $500,000, and 0.5% on the portion above $500,000, with a minimum fee of 25 USDT. A $100,000 deal costs $1,250. The buyer, the seller, or both equally can pay it, chosen when the deal is opened. Luindy covers the network fees, and cancelling before the deal is funded costs nothing.
06 — Security
Do I need to set up a wallet myself?
No. Luindy creates a Solana wallet for every account and runs it end to end. You sign in with a passkey or biometrics, and Luindy handles everything on the blockchain for you. There is nothing to store, back up or configure.
Are customer funds segregated?
Yes. Customer stablecoins are held in wallets separate from Luindy's operating funds. Balances are reconciled on-chain, and we publish proof-of-reserves attestations after launch.
Has the platform been audited?
Our smart contracts and wallet infrastructure are audited by independent firms before launch and after any material change. Reports will be linked from the Security page as they are published.
07 — Fees
Are there hidden fees?
No. Everything we charge is on the Fees page: the Solana network fee when you send externally, a 0.25% origination fee on loans, a 5% settlement fee if a SOL loan reaches 85% loan-to-value, and the tiered escrow fee on escrow deals. Receiving, holding and lending are free.
Are the rates on this site final?
They are illustrative launch targets. Live rates will be published in the app and may move with market conditions, but once you open a fixed-term position, your rate is locked for that term.
