How We Built $8LNDS 🔥

🔘 It all started with Maclear. In August 2023, the first business scaled on Maclear, and its investors got their first returns. Since then, we've done this:

🔘 Total funded: €57.8M+
🔘 Total repaid: €12.0M+
🔘 Total investors: 25,787
🔘 Default/Late loans: 1/0

🔘 We decided to move this idea on-chain. That's how 8lends launched.

🔘 We wanted to make it possible for anyone in the world to invest in real businesses and finally give crypto real utility.

🔘 It worked. After the first month, we gathered 126 investors and loaned $155,207 to real businesses.

🔘 Months ago, we started prepping for our own token, $8LNDS. We consulted 6 tokenomics teams, spent countless hours coding and refining.

😎 And finally, on November 11, we listed on multiple screeners and wallets, started our big marketing company, and our token got its first holders and price moves. So far, we only go up. No downside.

⚡ Today, we're the Top-1 crowdlending company in the Web3 space.

Next, we become the most popular P2P platform and the biggest token in this niche.

X SPACE WITH CRYPTO MINERS! 🎤

They’ve been digging deep in the crypto trenches and found a real diamond — 8lends! 🔥

Today, we’ll discuss how we’re connecting DeFi with TradFi.

🗓 Today, Dec 11 | 5:00 PM UTC on X Space

See you there! 👍

Airdrop & Retrodrop are OVER! ☑️

Today, we completed the final snapshot! From now on:

🔘 You can’t farm tokens on Zealy or Galxe anymore.
🔘 Retrodrop bonuses are officially over.

⚡ Proof of Loan (PoL) keeps running as usual.

We’ll distribute all tokens today and tomorrow.

We congratulate everyone who farmed $8LNDS with us!

And we hope you don't think the best part of our journey is over.

The best is yet to come.
Thank you for staying with 8lends! 😊

Thank you for completing tasks on Zealy & Galxe!

That was a hell of a journey! Over the last 5 months, we’ve received so many great answers from you, and we genuinely appreciate all your engagement.

Here’s what we’ve done together:

🔥 Distributed 1,000,000 tokens to participants:

🔘 Galxe — Whoever reached 400 points first got into the Top 500.

🔘 Zealy was different — there was no point limit and no “first-come, first-served” rule.

🔘 Top 50 ▶️ 2,000 tokens each
🔘 Top 450 ▶️ 888 tokens each

We manually checked all submissions and cleared out bots to make the challenge as fair as possible!

Even if you weren’t an active investor on 8lends but were an active participant — you got your share.

💎 And if you hold long-term, your value only increases. Not bad for a free token, right?

Thank you for being part of this amazing story.
One chapter closes, and another, bigger one, opens.

How to Get Places in Everything You Try 💯

Success isn't about luck or the perfect starting point. It's about the right principles and mindset.

Here are the key skills you need to build real success:

🔘 Learn faster than the market changes.
Speed beats a head start. If you can adapt quicker than everyone else, you win.

🔘 Go deep, not wide.
Most people quit when it comes to routine. Not surprising, right? It’s not exciting to do the same thing again and again. But that’s the KEY! Those tiny daily steps create the big result.

🔘 Build real connections.
Don’t underestimate the right network. The best insights and opportunities come from people, not Google or AI.

🔘 Don’t be afraid of being a newbie.
It’s part of every learning process — and learning lasts a lifetime.

🔘 Play the long game.
Don’t expect instant results. Building your dream should become a part of your daily routine — something as natural as drinking water. With that mindset, the results will show up sooner or later.

🔘 Stay open-minded.
The world changes constantly, and most people resist it. Our brain likes what it already understands, but sometimes you have to admit: “the old version of me is outdated.”

🔘 Create instead of just execute.
Shift your focus from “What do I do next?” to “What am I building, and why?”

The winners aren’t the lucky ones — they’re the ones whose routine is built so well that success becomes just a matter of time.

$8LNDS: What’s Next? 🔥

The airdrop is over, and it was just the opening chapter of our token’s story.

If you didn’t take part or feel the results could’ve been better, keep this in mind: you still have plenty of opportunities to grind $8LNDS before the price moves much higher.

💎 That said, token isn't our main focus. Our priority is secure, stable investing in real businesses.

That’s what 8lends is built for, don't forget about that 👍

Let’s take a break from marketing! ☕️

We know that everyone’s tired of marketing. Still, we hope you picked up a few useful insights along the way.

🎁 Around the holidays, most companies become louder, and try to sell everything at once. We want to do the opposite and slow things down.

⚡ Instead of selling, we’ll focus on discussing you and 8lends.

We’ll explain how 8lends works, answer your questions, and talk about things that help you improve your personal efficiency — some life stuff.

So feel free to ask anything in the comments. We’ll cover it in upcoming posts!

Let’s talk! 👋

We’ve updated the Referral Dashboard! ⚡

As we said, we’re not changing things on January 1 — we’re changing them today!

So, let us remind you how the new program works:

🔘 Referral bonus: 6%
🔘 Only the referrer receives the bonus

👥 The invited friend no longer receives a referral bonus, but they don’t walk away empty-handed:

☑️ A bonus for their first investment
☑️ 6% cashback in tokens on investments

🕧 Bonus is valid for 45 days after your friend completes KYC

For example, you invited a friend, and they invested 3,000 USDC.

🔘 You receive 180 USDC
🔘 Your friend receives no bonus under the new rules.

If your invited friends haven’t invested yet, they probably just don’t know 8lends well enough.

👍 Feel free to reach out to our support team — @daniel_8lends, @ceviz1389 — they’ll explain everything your referrals need to know about our platform.

"Utility tokens" in DeFi often collapsing into pure speculation

We got a very good and fair question from one of our followers, thank you for that one! 🔽

Given the track record of "utility tokens" in DeFi often collapsing into pure speculation, what concrete, non speculative actions must a user take on your platform to earn or benefit from the token, and how do you structurally prevent it from becoming just another farm and dump asset?

Here’s the simple answer:

🔥 $8LNDS isn't our main product.

In most DeFi projects, the token is the product. In our case, it isn’t.

We’re not building everything around the token, and we’re not trying to extract value from it. The core of 8lends is investing in real businesses.

$8LNDS is an add-on to those investments — a bonus you earn for participating, which will be gradually integrated into the ecosystem.

💎 What about utility?

Our goal is to tie $8LNDS directly to the investment process. Over time, holding the token will let you:

🔘 Earn bigger investment bonuses
🔘 Get access to high-yield pools
🔘 Unlock DAO features
🔘 Receive discounts and commission benefits
🔘 Access more features we're testing right now

✈️ What's next?

We spent six months building the token strategy. The first stage is already complete.

The next step is listings on tier-1 exchanges. This increases visibility, liquidity, and allows the token’s utility to scale alongside the platform, not ahead of it.

The Story of Borrower: Gold Car Rental 🚗

Today we’re launching a new type of post where we tell you more about the companies we list on 8lends — how we met, how the listing went, and what’s happening with the project right now.

And we’re starting with Gold Car Rental! 🔥

It was a warm day at the Crypto Gathering conference. Our Co-founder went there to meet some crypto people and have a few casual chats with like-minded folks.

He met people from all over the world — most conversations were pretty interesting, but one really stood out. He met a guy who’s been running a car rental business in Dubai since 2022!
Which was a funny coincidence, considering the conference was all about crypto! Just shows how far the space has expanded — even non-crypto founders are getting curious. But... that’s a story for another post.

The CEO of Gold Car Rental told him about his business. Everything was running smoothly, but he wanted to scale — specifically, buy 10 Mercedes-Benz Vito Business 2023 vehicles and fulfill their contract with Dutco Travel & Tourism LLC.
He tried going through a local bank but gave up quickly: tons of paperwork and, in his opinion, unfair terms.

That’s when our Co-founder’s spidey sense kicked in — he told him about 8lends and how we make this whole process way easier!

Fast forward a few weeks, they jumped on a call. We ran due diligence, checked everything, and on June 20, we listed Gold Car Rental on our platform.

Right now, Gold Car Rental is raising €511,000 on 8lends:

🟡 Loan period: 9 months
🟡 Lending APR: 23.10%

If you want to be part of their story and help them scale, feel free to invest.
