Yes, fiat debt traps you—but not because it lacks collateral. It lacks character. #Bitcoin fixes the denominator, not the discipline. Collateralized or not, debt always asks: Who owns the terms? Who holds the keys? Bitcoin-backed loans aren’t a HODLer’s dream—unless they preserve sovereignty on both sides of the trade. Otherwise, we’re dressing fiat in orange and calling it freedom.

What if you take out a loan at the cycle top @jackmallers?

Great news. BUT! Definitely not for everybody. If you can't come up with the repayments from other sources of income, think twice before giving any company your btc as collateral.

Question: if my collateral goes up in value will I be able to borrow more against it? Currently on Coinbase through morpho I can not achieve this. They want me to add more collateral. Also can I pay down/off the loan with my appreciated collateral?

yeah but wht do you do with borrowed money at 10%, 5% i'm not trolling brother. it's the only option trying arbitrage yield rates by putting the borrowed money into something that can "earn more/pay more" than the repayment interest rate?

🎙️ Venezuela, Debt & the Case for Bitcoin Loans Ep. 141 with Mauricio Di Bartolomeo Mauricio Di Bartolomeo is the Co-founder of Ledn , the leader in Bitcoin-backed lending. He grew up in Venezuela, living through the early tremors of what would become one of the most dramatic monetary collapses in modern history, before coming to Canada in 2003. His front-row seat to hyperinflation under Chavez and Maduro shaped a deeply practical understanding of how money, debt, and institutional trust actually function, and gave him the conviction to build Ledn, which has issued over $10 billion in loans since 2018 and holds an estimated 30% market share in consumer Bitcoin-backed lending globally. We cover what hyperinflation actually feels like from the inside, why the wealthy borrow while everyone else is told to save, the philosophical debate over whether Bitcoin-backed debt is morally sound, and what the recent seismic shifts in Venezuela's political landscape mean for an oppressed country. → Please like, comment, share & follow — to help me beat the suppressing algo's.
