Borrowing against your Bitcoin example:

Here is a breakdown of the key elements of the Loan:

Loan Amount (Borrowed):

$97,000 (or 97,000.002736 USDC - which can be used to do anything include buy more BTC, Real Estate, Car... etc)

Collateral:

2.20586409 BTC, valued at $194,027.20 at the time of the loan.

Stored in Morpho, a decentralized lending protocol.

Loan-to-Value (LTV) Ratio:

Current LTV: 49.98% ($97,000 borrowed / $194,027.20 collateral).

Liquidation LTV: 86%. If the LTV exceeds 86%, the collateral may be liquidated. THIS PART IS KEY!!!

Interest Rate:

5.05% variable APR (Annual Percentage Rate), meaning the rate can change over time. This is very low compared to trad banks

Loan Health:

Currently marked as "Good," as the LTV is well below the liquidation threshold of 86%.

Liquidation Price:

$51,132 per BTC. If Bitcoin’s price drops to this level, the LTV will hit 86%, triggering liquidation of the collateral. This loan is very far away from liquidation, which is the most important point of this type of borrowing.

Repayment Terms:

Flexible repayment schedule ("pay back on my own schedule").

Options to make payments or borrow more are available.

Tax Advantage:

The loan is normally a non-taxable event, as borrowing against crypto typically doesn’t trigger a taxable sale (unlike selling BTC).

Process:

No credit check, only BTC collateral required.

Funded immediately, taking just 5 minutes.

This a the same shit plebs get rekt with on other cryptocurrencies lol

Irresponsible leverage gets liquidated

Strategic leverage gets multiplied.

lol

I agree with you. A high LTV with 5% interest is not irresponsible IMO. Also making sure you have more BTC to add to collateral if needed can now be called responsible. Not having to sell your Bitcoin and add nice things life education expenses, a new hone, a business, to your life is also being responsible.
