Thank you to everyone who joined AMA Blockelite x Rain Credit on 8th March at 03:00 PM UTC I 10:00 PM (UTC+7). Here is the recap for those who missed this AMA.
Our special guest today is Rainbuilder – Lead developer of Rain Credit
Segment 1: Introduction about Rain Credit and Rainbuilder – Lead developer of Rain Credit
Q1: Can you briefly introduce yourself as well as about Rain Credit?
Rainbuilder – Lead developer of Rain Credit: I am a software developer, investor, and blockchain enthusiast with 15 years of industry experience in fintech and 6 years in the blockchain ecosystem. I am one of the core developers with Rain.credit. Lovely to meet you all here
Rain.credit aims to create an Off-Chain Oracle Data analytics platform for the Binance blockchain, connecting outside organisations, and investors to the Defi market with low risk. We aim to launch several components to achieve this namely, Rain Non-Custodial Loans, Rain Analytics (demo https://demo-analytics.rain.credit/ ), and Rain pound (Farm). Let me give you a practical example and the issue with them.
Rain.Credit is a BEP20 token on the Binance Smart Chain which acts as a non-custodial Off-Chain Data analytics Oracle Aggregator providing concise Credit rating on a user’s address. This credit rating is used to provide a better collateral factor for digital asset lenders and borrowers on the rain platform. Rain.Credit is based on the current decentralised lending platforms and protocols, but with various changes to bring an even more innovative design and experience.
Compound for example offers collateralized debt position with variation of taking 100% or digital assets and borrowing you 60% equivalent of that asset. When the asset is due and it is time to recoup it, the smart contract will only release it when all the borrowed assets are paid back.
Two (2) things are wrong with this scenario, one: the collateral outways the amount of assets the user wants to borrow, and two: no dispensation for good behaviour or borrowers that want to payback the asset early. Not completely but early.
If I don’t give the compound contract the whole borrowed assets, I won’t get back my collateral. This is where Oracle Analytics comes in, it can be used to determine which borrowers are likely to default based on transaction history, update the terms of the loans based on payback and also incentivise good behaviour with additional funds through Raindrops.
Q2: Can you tell me how Rain Credit is different than all other Defi projects? Why people have to choose you?
Rainbuilder – Lead developer of Rain Credit: What makes us so unique is how we will use Aggregated Off-Chain analytics to help reduce investors’ exposure when they begin to interact with our ecosystem.
We are different from BAND, LINK, UMA, OCTO and some of the other oracle platforms in the sense that we are not focused on providing price feeds to on-chain smart contracts, but rather we provide trust as a score to protocols both on-chain and off-chain.
We believe ours will be the go-to platform for both internal and external services looking for trusted information that is not of high interest to attackers, which puts user funds at a reduced risk of exposure to all the platforms that will rely on us for trusted analytics data.
Q3: Let’s explain about Rain Loans Ecosystem. How its work? Are there any conditions for borrowers?
Rainbuilder – Lead developer of Rain Credit: Raindrops is a service we will be launching that provides information about loan applicants or customers to reduce the risk of default to investors. The more information provided by the borrower, the less collateral needed to borrow and more funds available to be borrowed.
Extra amount of Rain tokens will be offered to borrowers without any extra collateral based on their transaction history and rating from Rain.credits Off-chain Oracle Analytics. We have calculated the interest against the length of tokens being borrowed and anticipate 20% liquidity will be enough to fund the programme and the yield farming combined. Its calculated as so:
Rain = Amount to borrow + Transaction History / Amount to lock up
Q4: What are the $Rain token utilities, governance, and token economics?
Rainbuilder – Lead developer of Rain Credit: Governance is on the roadmap and will ultimately be linked to the native $RAIN token.
$RAIN holders will decide the future direction of the project.
RAIN Token holders receive 30% dividends from RAIN’s profits. Dividends are paid periodically
and distributed proportionately to all RAIN token holders in RAIN
Tokens holders can also use $Rain token to get discounts on all Rain platforms

Q5: What is the progress and roadmap of Rain Credit for 2021?
Rainbuilder – Lead developer of Rain Credit: We have a lot in stock for Q2–2021 (Testnet Season)
Our focus for the second quarter of 2021 is to get the platform in full gear with the Oracle and Lending platform working effectively on the testnet within a short period of time. We also aim to further build on the Oracle platform by building the “Trust Network”, which motivates data providers.
