Coinbase Now Offers Bitcoin-Backed USDC Loans in Under a Minute

Coinbase Now Offers Bitcoin-Backed USDC Loans in Under a Minute

Coinbase users can now obtain a Bitcoin-backed USDC loan in less than a minute without having to sell their BTC. Initially, the loans will be secured by BTC, but later on, other assets will be added.

Max Branzburg, Coinbase's VP of Product, stated in a statement provided to International Business Times, "Coinbase is transforming personal finance by bringing it onchain. We're bridging traditional finance with decentralized innovation, from crypto-backed loans to seamless USDC conversion."

How It Functions

Coinbase is dedicated to giving customers more control over their finances, and this new product is a significant step in that direction. All you need to do to apply for Coinbase's Bitcoin-backed USDC loans is:

Coinbase pointed out that borrowing against Bitcoin rather than selling it can postpone a tax gain or loss. Additionally, because the loans are powered by Morpho, which offers access to competitive interest rates set by the protocol's onchain open market lending pool, customers are no longer required to choose between saving money for the future and spending it now.

Coinbase's $BTC-Backed $USDC Loans: Key Features

Customers were able to move and use their Bitcoin onchain thanks to the Coinbase Wrapped Bitcoin (cbBTC) launch. Customers can now reap the advantages of cbBTC without leaving Coinbase with the new service. Other important characteristics of the loans include:

It's crucial to remember that if a loan amount, including accrued interest, hits a specific threshold in relation to the value of the collateral, liquidations will be triggered.

Coinbase has consistently supported economic freedom and aims to provide customers with financial services that promote decentralization, openness, and access to better wealth management
