# Liquidity Markets

Curvance enables users to deposit one asset as collateral while the protocol lends that liquidity to another user who borrows a different asset. Both sides of the market can remain productive, allowing deposits to generate yield while also unlocking borrowing capacity.

### Supply Side

When you deposit an asset into Curvance, it enters the lending pool and becomes available for other users to borrow. Your deposit will typically continue earning underlying yield if the asset supports it. In most markets, deposits can also be enabled as collateral to unlock borrowing power.

**Key Advantages**

* Earn interest from borrowers and, where supported, from underlying yield sources
* Optionally enable deposits as collateral to access liquidity
* Withdraw at any time after the 20 minute cooldown unless the market is fully utilized

### Borrow Side

**Access liquidity while keeping assets productive**

Users can borrow asset B against their deposit of asset A. Deposited collateral continues to earn yield while enabling access to new capital. This opens the door to strategies such as looping, hedging, funding rate arbitrage, or directional exposure.

**Key Advantages**

* Borrow while retaining yield on collateral
* Support for stablecoins, WETH, WBTC, LSTs and LRTs on Monad
* One click leverage and strategy execution through position manager tools
