Using Bitcoin as collateral allows you to borrow up to 50% of its value—although playing it safe at 25% is the more sensible option considering the market's volatility.
Of course, real estate has always been the preferred collateral. But here's the thing: it is painfully illiquid compared to Bitcoin. When you need to liquidate an asset, the process can be delayed—advertisements, viewings, negotiations. Meanwhile, Bitcoin moves at the speed of blockchain. This liquidity gap? It's a game changer for anyone who needs quick access to capital without selling their property.
