a year ago

Coinbase has reintroduced a bitcoin-backed loan feature for its customers in the U.S., allowing them to borrow USDC without selling their bitcoins.

Return of Coinbase's Loan Feature

Coinbase is reintroducing its bitcoin-backed loan feature, excluding customers in New York. Loan limits are based on the value of stored bitcoins. This service will be available using the Morpho DeFi protocol, which can process loans in less than a minute.

Benefits of the New Program

Users taking out loans will earn more than 4% in USDC rewards. The loan recipients can also convert the USDC to fiat USD to cover off-chain expenses, such as buying a car or making a mortgage down payment.

Expansion and Crypto Loan History

Coinbase stated that USDC will be available natively on ten different blockchains, including Ethereum and Base. Notably, the crypto loan market faced tough times in the past, with bankruptcies like BlockFi and Celsius.

The return of Coinbase's bitcoin-backed loan feature marks a new phase in the field of decentralized finance, showing that the platform aims to address previous issues and offer more flexible and secure solutions for its users.
