Liquidate Borrow
A user who has negative Account Liquidity is subject to forced liquidation by other users of the protocol to return his/her account liquidity back to positive (above the max collateral ratio). When a liquidation occurs, a liquidator may repay some or all of an outstanding borrow on behalf of a borrower and in return receive a discounted amount of collateral held by the borrower; this discount is defined as the liquidation incentive. A liquidator may close up to a certain fixed percentage of any individual outstanding borrow of the underwater account.
Liquidators must interact with each fToken contract in which they wish to repay a borrow and seize another asset as collateral. When collateral is seized, the liquidator is transferred fTokens, which they may redeem the same as if they had supplied the asset themselves. Users must approve each fToken contract before calling liquidate, as they are transferring funds into the contract.
