MetaStreet is a capital provider for NFT-backed loans, best known as the architect behind developing infrastructure for automated underwriting and execution of fixed-rate NFT loans. Its latest product called “PowerSweep” aims to increase the purchasing power of NFT traders by allowing them to buy and sell NFTs on a margin. The crypto-fintech uses Reservoir’s NFT order book protocol to facilitate the trades. To date, the protocol has facilitated around $40 million in lending volume. MetaStreet is also the issuer of two of the largest NFT-backed loans in the industry. “We’re fortunate to be deeply entrenched in NFT finance at such a formative period of time in the lifecycle of the metaverse.
