BendDao is an NFT lending protocol that provides 30%-40% of the NFT floor price as a loan. This is typically used by market participants who need ETH liquidity but do not want to sell their blue chip NFTs. However, in the event of a health factor below 1, the NFT will be liquidated, as shown in the example below.
