Crypto-Backed Lending: Unlock Liquidity from Your Digital Assets

BridgeCap offers crypto-backed lending to unlock liquidity using Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other digital assets without selling your holdings.

The world of finance is rapidly evolving, and cryptocurrency has emerged as a major asset class for both investors and businesses. But what if you need liquidity without selling your crypto holdings? With Crypto-Backed Lending from BridgeCap, you can access cash by leveraging your Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other approved digital assets as collateral.

What is Crypto-Backed Lending?

Crypto-backed lending allows you to borrow funds against the value of your digital assets without having to sell them. By depositing your crypto into a secure, insured custodian account, BridgeCap can offer funding based on a percentage of your portfolio’s market value.

How It Works:

  1. Collateral Deposit: You transfer supported cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum into our secure custodian wallet.
  2. Loan-to-Value (LTV) Determination: We provide funding up to a certain LTV ratio (commonly 30-70%) to protect against market volatility.
  3. Funding Disbursement: Receive cash while maintaining ownership of your crypto.
  4. Collateral Management: If crypto values fluctuate, margin requirements are monitored to prevent liquidation.

Advantages of Crypto-Backed Lending

  • Maintain Ownership: Keep exposure to crypto upside while accessing liquidity.
  • No Credit Checks: Approval is based on collateral value, not credit scores.
  • Fast Funding: Receive funds within days of collateral verification.
  • Flexible Use: Use funds for business expansion, real estate, or other investments.

Use Cases

Crypto-backed lending is popular among entrepreneurs and investors who want to:

  • Fund real estate purchases or improvements
  • Invest in new ventures without selling long-term crypto holdings
  • Bridge liquidity gaps while awaiting other financing
  • Combine with Asset-Based Lending or SBA 7(a) loans for diversified capital strategies

Risk Management

BridgeCap ensures safe custody of your digital assets and manages risk through conservative LTV ratios and real-time monitoring. In the event of a significant market drop, you may add more collateral or repay part of the advance to maintain the position.
