Still need to understand how this kind of stuff works; loans and all. I’ve never done it

I wouldn’t personally

That’s where I camp

Especially since the collateral is 100k minimum

Losing 10k of Bitcoin would suck but losing 10-100k of it would be terrible.

Why do bitcoin backed loans have such insanely high interest rates? If they are collateralized with bitcoin wouldn't you think the interest rate would be lower? It isn't an unsecured loan after all.

They want your bitcoin that’s why.

Early stages of underwriting the risk with very few providers. Eventually it comes down but 12-15% has been the range.
