Don't remind me again today

Using BTC as collateral lets you borrow up to 50% of its value—though playing it safe at 25% makes more sense given how wild the swings can get.



Sure, real estate's been the go-to collateral forever. But here's the thing: it's painfully illiquid compared to bitcoin.

When you need to liquidate property, the process drags on—listings, showings, negotiations. Meanwhile, BTC moves at the speed of the blockchain. That liquidity gap? It's a game-changer for anyone needing fast access to capital without selling their stack.

Data speaks, the average liquidation speed of BTC is 3.7 times that of real estate.

50% is playing with fire, it's too dangerous.

Mortgage on a house is not as fast as dealing with coins, and you still have to run through intermediaries which is a hassle.

BTC is really great, much faster to flip than a house.
