# Borrow

The **Borrow Page** can be used to borrow tokens from Orchai. The protocol requires users to provide sORAI/scORAI as collateral before making a loan.

{% hint style="info" %}
Users can still earn sORAI rewards when using sORAI as collateral. To claim collateral sORAI reward, go to [My Page](/user-guide/my-page.md)
{% endhint %}

Borrows can be made until the loan's borrowing usage reaches the borrowing limit, calculated based on their prices, and deposit amount. Loans with a borrowing usage higher than the borrowing limit can be liquidated. Thus it is important for borrowers to closely maintain their borrowing usage as changes in collateral prices may occur.

The **Borrow** page displays:

* **Collateral Value:** Total value of all collaterals provided by the user.
* **Borrowed Value:** Total value of USDT borrowed by the user.
* **Available Borrow:** Total value of USDT that the user can borrow.
* **Borrowing Capacity:** Ratio value that signals the user loan position's liquidation riskiness. Calculated by dividing the user's borrowed value by their borrow limit.\
  (B*orrow Limit = Borrowed Value + Available Borrow*)
* **Borrow APR:** Borrow annual percentage rate (APR) on borrows from both Interest APR and Distribution APR.\
  (B*orrow APR = Distribution APR - Interest APR)*
  * **Interest APR:** Current APR of borrow interest.
  * **Distribution APR:** Current APR of ORCHAI distribution to borrowers.

When the Borrow APR is positive, ORCHAI rewards distributed to borrowers are greater than the interest to be paid for the loan
