Big milestone for Bitcoin adoption 🔥
The total collateral in Bitcoin-backed loans on Coinbase just crossed $1 BILLION.
What does this actually mean?
👉 More people are locking up their $BTC as collateral to take loans. They’re not selling their Bitcoin, they’re borrowing against it showing they want to hold long-term while still unlocking liquidity.
This is huge for a few reasons:
✅ It takes even more Bitcoin off the market, tightening supply.
✅ It signals growing trust in $BTC as pristine collateral like digital gold, but better.
✅ It’s another step toward a mature financial system built around crypto.
The chart is clear. Just this year, the growth has been insane. From basically nothing in January 2025 to $1B+ in collateral now. At the same time, the amount of active loans has also skyrocketed.
More BTC getting locked up = less available to buy = stronger price floor.
Long story short: Bitcoin is being treated more and more like a serious financial asset. And the market is evolving right in front of us.
Stay sharp, and don’t underestimate what’s coming next. 🚀
