Institutions can now get loans using big-slice pancakes as collateral without having to sell.
Today, Circle launched a new service: institutions can use Bitcoin as collateral to borrow USDC. The process isn’t complicated—first, swap BTC for its own cirBTC (1:1 wrapping), then stake it as collateral. The loan is handled by lending protocols like Morpho, and afterward it will also connect to Aave. Custody is handled by Circle National Trust, and the chain used is its own Arc along with Ethereum.
My first reaction: this is basically opening another door for institutions that don’t want to sell their coins. Previously, if they needed cash, they had to sell; now they can borrow while keeping the coins by pledging them as collateral. With today’s BTC price topping 85,000 and everyone rushing to buy, the timing feels especially delicate 🏦
What I’m curious about is: when “borrowing money while holding coins” becomes a standard operation, will market sell-pressure truly decrease, or will it just push leverage a few months further out?
