What makes $MARS unique compared to most protocols is the diversity of assets you can offer as collateral to borrow against.
In most lending protocols these are limited to a few tokens.
$MARS opens this up to any token on the #Terra Blockchain and potentially across #IBC.

What is Cryptocurrency?
A cryptocurrency is a digital or virtual currency that is secured by cryptography.
(It is secured by code on a computer)
Many cryptocurrencies are decentralized networks based on blockchain technology—a distributed ledger.

(Everyone keeps track of what happens on the network by sharing that code. They all participate together to make the system work properly.)
A defining feature of cryptocurrencies is that they are generally not issued by any central authority.
