Maple CEO wants to turn Bitcoin into the new backbone of global lending.
Sid Powell, CEO and co-founder of Maple, is taking a page from Wall Street and bringing it on-chain. His company is rethinking institutional lending with crypto as the foundation — starting with Bitcoin.
In an interview with TheStreet Roundtable, Powell described the approach as “asset-backed lending on-chain.” It’s already getting attention from high-net-worth individuals and fixed-income investors.
Maple makes loans to institutions like trading firms and hedge funds, using crypto — like Bitcoin — as collateral. Borrowers get stablecoins sent directly to their wallets, while Maple holds the collateral in liquid digital assets. Investors then earn yield from those loans, much like traditional credit markets.
Unlike private credit markets, where loans are often unsecured and locked for years, Powell says Maple offers something far more appealing: loans that are over-collateralized and redeemable within 30 days.This sounds familiar to anyone who’s dealt with margin lending or pledged securities. But crypto has one major edge: liquidity.
“Selling a house takes six months, but selling a billion dollars’ worth of Bitcoin can take a couple of hours,” Powell said. “There are plenty of places I can sell (digital assets) if the loan goes sour.”

1 Crypto Stock That Could Go Parabolic.
Over the past five years, shares of Strategy (NASDAQ: MSTR) are up by a whopping 3,000%. It continues to be one of the hottest stocks on the market, with a gain of 80% over the past 12 months. And year to date, it's up by a robust 15%, despite the broader market's slide.
And the best may be yet to become. That's because Strategy -- until recently known as MicroStrategy -- remains resolute in pursuing its Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) buying mission. If the price of Bitcoin goes parabolic, as many expect it to do, then the stock could go parabolic as well.
Strategy's big bet on Bitcoin
Right now, Strategy holds 506,187 Bitcoins on its balance sheet, worth a total of about $45 billion at current market prices. That makes it the largest corporate holder of the crypto in the world, with just over 2.5% of the total circulating supply. For comparison, the U.S. federal government holds 200,000 Bitcoins.
And Strategy is not stopping there. In October, it announced a major new expansion of the Bitcoin buying program it started back in August 2020. Its "21/21 Plan" calls for the company to raise $42 billion via a mix of debt sales and equity offerings, and use all of it to buy more Bitcoin.
