Loans
Access crypto-backed loans and credit services. Borrow against your Bitcoin or Ethereum without selling your holdings.

Ledn offers Bitcoin-backed loans for cash access without selling your BTC. Unchained provides Bitcoin-collateralized loans with custody options designed for long-term holders. SALT Lending lets you borrow cash using Bitcoin as collateral. Nexo offers instant credit lines backed by BTC or ETH. Firefish is a non-custodial peer-to-peer Bitcoin-backed lending marketplace. Lend at Hodl Hodl is another P2P option with no middleman custody. Loan terms, LTV ratios, and interest rates vary significantly between platforms, so compare before committing.
