(4) Type in the desired asset name of your collateral (e.g. BTS) in "Asset name" box

(5) Type desired amount in "Amount" box (this denotes the amount of collateral per unit lent, more on this shortly)

(6) Under "Rate" enter the numeric % fee you would like for your loan (e.g. 1 would be 1%)

(7) Repay period means the length of the loan (e.g. 7 days, 30 days)

(8) Minimum means the smallest unit you can borrow (1 for a USD$ borrowed would mean the least you can borrow at a time is $1)

(9) Expiration means when your offer will expire (We recommend at least 30 days or more ideally)

(10) Click "Submit" to publish your credit offer on chain
