# Solignition

> Solignition is a permissionless DeFi lending protocol on Solana that fronts the SOL (rent + fees) needed to deploy on-chain programs. Builders borrow to deploy and repay to reclaim upgrade authority; liquidity providers deposit SOL and earn yield from borrower interest.

The median Solana program costs around 3 SOL just to deploy, which is a capital barrier for developers. Solignition removes it through a peer-to-pool mechanism: you upload compiled bytecode, the protocol deploys it on your behalf, and you repay principal plus interest. Nothing is custodial — deployment (upgrade) authority is held in escrow by a protocol PDA during the loan term and transfers to the borrower on successful repay. Interest is linear and time-prorated with no compounding. If a loan is not repaid before expiry, there is no grace period: the protocol closes the deployed program and reclaims the SOL back to the vault to protect LPs. The system is a set of on-chain Anchor accounts (a singleton protocol config, per-LP depositor records, and per-loan records) plus an off-chain deployer service that listens for loan-request events and acts on them.
