# Lending

{% embed url="<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaUeZfrDxDQ>" %}

**How can I earn interest on my BTC?**\
\
To lend BTC, go to <https://live.sovryn.app/lend> and input the amount of BTC you would like to lend, and click Deposit BTC.\
\
The Interest APR is the % you can expect to gain annually for lending your BTC. Keep in mind, this is entirely non-custodial and you are free to withdraw at any time. This is the most faithful platform for lending true Bitcoin and earning sats without having to entrust your holdings to a centralized custodian or a multi-sig that issues digital IOUs for your Bitcoin. The % APR will change according to the demand for borrowing BTC on the permissionless Sovryn platform.

Interest payments made by borrowers are distributed to lenders. The Sovryn Protocol collects 10% of interest for the insurance fund, which exists to protect lenders in the possible case of a loan defaulting.\
The second way to earn on BTC is providing liquidity to Sovryn’s AMM. Currently, users are able to swap between Dollars on Chain (DoC) and Bitcoin (RBTC), with more assets to come. Liquidity providers will be able to earn from trading fees as well as earn yield from Sovryn’s future liquidity mining program. Unlike other AMMs that only accept a 50/50 ratio among a pair of cryptocurrencies, you would only need to deposit one in order to start earning swap fees. The fees will start at 0.1% per swap per coin for liquidity providers.<br>

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://sovryn-1.gitbook.io/sovryn/untitled-2.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
