Researchers have developed zLend, a framework designed to reconstruct on-chain cash flow histories for credit underwriting in decentralized lending environments. The system analyzes raw token transfers to infer a borrower's repayment capacity, addressing the lack of traditional credit bureaus in DeFi. zLend performs dual-scope reconstructions, considering both a stablecoin basket and all fungible transfers, to derive distinct signals such as liquidity coverage, cash-flow volatility, and recurring payment patterns. This framework is already deployed in production, influencing real lending decisions through API integrations. AI
