A focused publication on tick-band borrowing, liquidation geometry, solver execution, and the risk surface around OpenLend.
OpenLend soft liquidation is not only a one-way unwind. When price recovers and the reverse trade is valid, solvers can move exposure back through de-liquidation.
OpenLend now supports WBTC/USDT and WETH/USDT long markets over Morpho on Arbitrum, with higher internal LTV caps than the current Aave long markets.
OpenLend now supports Aave-backed short markets for WBTC and WETH. Users can borrow BTC or ETH against USDT collateral and keep the same soft-liquidation geometry on the way up.
OpenLend's solver bot is now public. Soft-liquidation execution is not a closed operator path: any prepared market participant can run the bot and compete to fill valid bands.
Looping can amplify yield, but it also makes liquidation shape matter. OpenLend uses tick bands to turn a cliff into a smoother payoff profile.
A lending position does not have to fall from safe to liquidated in one jump. Tick bands let liquidation become a continuous risk process.
Aave provides deep lending infrastructure. OpenLend adds position-level liquidation geometry and a solver surface on top.
