JetFuel’s Lending Platform Fortress Upgrades to Chainlink


JetFuel’s Lending Platform Fortress Upgrades to Chainlink for Faster, More Secure Price Oracles.
Fortress decentralized lending and borrowing service will use Chainlink’s high-quality, tamper-proof price reference data to support the platform’s provisioning of liquidity and calculation of collateral rates. Chainlinking Fortress directly benefits users by ensuring they get accurate and up-to-date valuations on assets used in the platform.
Fortress is part of the Jetfuel Finance ecosystem and enables users to lend and borrow cryptocurrencies by over-collateralizing loans and paying interest on the amount borrowed.
Fortress allows users to lend assets and earn a compounded annual percentage yield (“APY”) that’s paid for by the borrowers. To create a fair pricing mechanism for loan issuance and collateralization maintenance, Fortress needs on-chain price data reflective of current global market rates that can’t be manipulated or experience downtime.
