DeFi Project Atlendis Secures $1 Million Loan from French National Bank BPI and Demonstrates Compliance with PSAN License
French DeFi project Atlendis hit two major milestones as it secured a €1 million loan ($1,108,055.00) from the French public investment bank along with obtaining a crypto services provider license.
Atlantis obtained PSAN, committing to complying with France’s crypto regulations and aligning with upcoming European regulations, MiCA.
The PSAN registration also serves as a model for the formulation of new regulatory guidelines.
This license enables Atlendis to onboard non-crypto companies, making it more transparent and accessible to all investors, provided they undergo the required Know Your Customer (KYC) process.
Atlendis Flow, the latest offering from the platform, presents a breakthrough in decentralized finance as the project aims to simplify decentralized lending protocols for institutional borrowers.
By enabling direct crypto-to-fiat transactions, the product provides on-chain liquidity for real-world use cases, promising cost savings and increased efficiency through automation.
The platform's move towards the private debt market signals a strategic shift away from lending to high-risk entities, such as Web3 companies and DeFi protocols, and instead aims to focus on real-world assets and fintech companies.
The collapse of FTX and market turbulence served as a wake-up call for Atlendis, prompting the company to reevaluate its offerings.
CEO Alexis Masseron acknowledged the criticisms directed at DeFi, including comparisons to Ponzi schemes, which led to the development of a new approach. Recognizing the high risks associated with their previous lending model, Atlendis took measures to safeguard investors' interests and moved towards the more stable and lucrative private debt market.
