Coinbase just made Bitcoin-backed loans better for U.S. customers
@Coinbase has partnered with
@betrmortgage to introduce the first mainstream Bitcoin-backed mortgage product in the United States.
Borrowers can now pledge $BTC as collateral for a home down payment, allowing them to secure real estate financing without selling their digital holdings or triggering taxable events.
This framework utilizes a specialized lending model designed to bypass traditional margin calls while keeping the borrower's underlying position intact.
