26. Bulk offer strategy​

Bulk offers let a lender deploy capital across up to 10 independent offers for one collection.

Possible approaches include:

  • Tiered amounts: Mix higher, middle, and lower principals for different borrower needs.
  • Demand matching: Allocate more capital to collections with stronger borrowing activity.
  • Capital cycling: Reuse claimed principal in new offers.
  • Staggered exposure: Avoid committing every offer at the same principal and risk level.

Each offer has its own fee. A 10-offer batch therefore incurs 10 configured offer fees. Compare expected lender interest with creation fees before submitting.

Review open offers regularly and cancel those that no longer match current market conditions.

27. Read the leaderboard for activity​

The leaderboard is primarily a points ranking, but its timeframe filters can also indicate activity patterns.

  • Compare All time with shorter timeframes to distinguish long-term and recent activity.
  • Compare points with HBAR volume to understand the scale associated with a rank.
  • Use the collection leaderboard to see where lending volume is concentrated.
  • Use sprint standings only for activity inside that sprint's configured dates.

Leaderboard activity is not proof of profitability, identity, expertise, or creditworthiness.

28. Default strategy for lenders​

Default is one possible loan outcome, not a guaranteed gain.

  • A repayment returns principal plus lender interest.
  • A default allows a claim for the NFT after payment of the applicable fee.
  • The NFT may be worth more or less than the principal.
  • Selling it may take time and may require accepting a price below the displayed floor.

Factors to evaluate​

  • Offer amount relative to realistic market value.
  • Collection liquidity and recent sales.
  • Price volatility during a seven-day period.
  • Claim and marketplace costs.
  • Concentration across collections.
  • Whether you would be comfortable holding the NFT.

Some lenders sell a claimed NFT to recover liquidity; others hold it. CollaFi does not recommend either strategy.

29. Request a custom offer​

The standard CollaFi interface uses collection-level loan offers and fixed collection terms. It does not provide trait-specific or rarity-specific pricing.

For an unusual case, open a ticket in the CollaFi Discord and provide:

  • Collection and token ID.
  • NFT serial number or relevant trait details.
  • Proposed principal.
  • Whether you are the lender or borrower.
  • The counterparty, if already known.
  • The reason the standard collection flow is unsuitable.

Custom handling is reviewed individually and is not guaranteed. Standard custody, term, default, and security requirements still apply unless CollaFi explicitly states otherwise.

30. Risk management for active users​

Lenders​

  • Diversify rather than concentrating all capital in one collection.
  • Do not lend more than you can afford to lose.
  • Reassess collection health and liquidity over time.
  • Leave HBAR available for fees and other needs.
  • Avoid treating a floor-price feed as guaranteed exit liquidity.

Borrowers​

  • Borrow only what you expect to repay within seven days.
  • Include the acceptance fee and total interest in your calculation.
  • Avoid collateralizing an irreplaceable NFT.
  • Monitor Portfolio directly and repay with enough time for settlement.

Common mistakes​

  • Lending at a value that leaves no downside protection.
  • Borrowing the maximum without a repayment buffer.
  • Assuming a grace period exists.
  • Relying only on notification delivery.
  • Concentrating every position in one collection.
  • Repeating a transaction before checking whether the first attempt settled.

There is no requirement to remain fully deployed. Pausing during sharp market moves or uncertainty can be a valid risk decision.
