I'm a journalist sharing my own experience, not a financial advisor. Always do your own research and consult a qualified professional before making any financial decision. *Borrowing against Bitcoin carries real risk.* Bitcoin's price is volatile. If the value of your collateral falls and your loan-to-value (LTV) ratio rises too high, you can face a margin call — and if you can't add collateral or repay, your Bitcoin can be liquidated, meaning you can lose some or all of your Bitcoin. Never borrow more than you can afford to lose, and understand the terms fully before you commit.
