# TODO: update Tips for lenders

## 🧠 There are 2 ways to lend $SOL on Banx 

* Via the Lend page
* Via the Refinance page

Both options have their advantages and we encourage you to try out both to see what combination works best for you:

### 1) Lend page

* Create offers for collections you want to lend against
* Once an offer is made, sit back and wait for a borrower take your offer
* Actual offer size taken can be less depending on the amount of SOL users choose to borrow

### 2) Refinancing auctions

* Allows you to put your SOL to work instantly by lending to existing loans in search of new lenders
* You can see exactly what collateral you are lending against 
* However, you have no control over the existing loans' LTVs, so it is likely some loans appearing for refinance will not be within your risk appetite

{% hint style="info" %}
New refinancing auctions will appear in a dedicated channel [in our discord ](https://discord.gg/banxfromfrakt)

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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://docs.banx.gg/banx-protocol/how-to-lend/todo-update-tips-for-lenders.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.
