8 lending & borrowing listed for Thailand
In ChainChoice’s published ranking order, from this category’s 8 providers: those whose terms exclude Thailand are removed; naming Thailand or a region that covers it counts the same, and those whose terms do not state it come last. Each chip names the basis: a dated check, a region listing, or the provider's own claim.
#1 for ThailandVenus#1 globallyProvider states broad availability A shared-pool onchain money market whose BNB Chain book is 99.5% of the protocol and where, for that book, Venus publishes per-market oracle tiers with numeric cross-source bounds and links each tier to its deployed oracle contract - while its own forum carries dated, quantified post-mortems of the four times it lost lender money, including admissions its docs never repeat.
Oracle liquidation price — 9/10Rate authorship — 9/10Shortfall record — 9/10#2 for ThailandSpark#2 globallyProvider states broad availability SparkLend is an Ethereum-only Aave v3 fork run as Sky's in-house money market: prices come from a three-oracle median of RedStone, Chainlink and Chronicle with a Uniswap TWAP as last resort, your deposit is never re-routed by a curator, and the borrow rate is an immutable per-reserve IRM — SSR-anchored on the stablecoin reserves — that Sky governance can only change by redeploying the contract.
Rate authorship — 10/10Oracle liquidation price — 8/10Blast radius — 8/10#3 for ThailandMorpho#3 globallyProvider states broad availability A permissionless isolated-market primitive deployed on 14 chains where the oracle, the interest-rate model and the liquidation LLTV are chosen once at market creation and can never be changed — so Morpho publishes no deviation threshold and no heartbeat anywhere, but does publish, per market and continuously, the exact oracle contract that liquidates you, a documented degraded-state regime for when that oracle reverts, and the exact dollar figure of bad debt sitting in each market.
Rate authorship — 9/10Blast radius — 9/10#4 for ThailandEuler V2#4 globallyProvider states broad availability Modular onchain lending where every market is its own vault: a third party picks your collateral, LTVs, oracle route and interest-rate model, and Euler publishes the resulting parameters — including a continuously recalculated, per-vault bad-debt figure — through its own data API rather than on the security page a buyer would actually read.
Blast radius — 9/10Rate authorship — 8/10Shortfall record — 8/10#5 for ThailandKamino Lend#5 globallyProvider states broad availability Solana's largest onchain money market on its own reporting -- $2.22B supplied and $0.91B borrowed at 31 July 2026 -- and a venue that publishes far more as machine-readable data than as documentation: per-reserve rate knots, LTV, liquidation threshold, borrow factor, protocol take rate and a per-asset oracle staleness bound are all readable live from Kamino's own API, while the two numbers that decide whether a manipulated price closes your position -- which upstream feed prices your reserve, and the spot-vs-TWAP divergence guard -- are published for no market anywhere.
Blast radius — 9/10Rate authorship — 8/10#6 for ThailandCompound#6 globallyProvider states broad availability COMP-governed onchain money market whose Compound III (Comet) design gives each market exactly one borrowable base asset and a set of capped, non-lent collateral assets, priced by a single named Chainlink feed per asset with no published deviation bound, and liquidated whole by an absorb call paid out of protocol reserves.
Rate authorship — 9/10Shortfall record — 8/10#7 for ThailandFluid (Instadapp)#7 globallyProvider states broad availability Shared-liquidity money market where collateral and debt can sit inside a Fluid DEX position; publishes per-vault oracle contract, LTV, liquidation threshold, penalty and absorbed bad debt live via its own API, and disclosed a ~$21M Resolv-driven shortfall (incident 22 Mar 2026) on its governance forum in amounts its own marketing recap then restates as $9.7M and attributes to the wrong payer.
Rate authorship — 8/10Blast radius — 8/10#8 for ThailandAave#8 globallyProvider states broad availability The reference shared-pool money market: it publishes the loss waterfall, the risk-steward mandate and its own incident arithmetic in more detail than anyone in the category, and publishes no deviation threshold or heartbeat anywhere for the price that actually liquidates you.
