Trad.Fi is working with AI-agent developer W3 to deploy $650 million in private credit on Avalanche over the next 48 months, focused on U.S. equipment financing for manufacturing, industrial electrical infrastructure, and residential solar. The pitch is speed: AI handles risk checks, diligence, and loan pricing so SMBs can get financing in a day instead of waiting months. The first phase still relies on offchain capital from traditional private credit lenders, but a tokenized liquidity pool for eligible investors is expected in the coming weeks.
