Borrowing against your Bitcoin seems counter intuitive, what am I missing? Shouldn't debt in fiat be maximized instead?

It is fiat debt, at a fiat debt interest rate

I mean, aren't there better forms of collateral? Like a house?

I never got it either. People with decent credit can get unsecured loans at the rates half these places offer if you give them your keys.

Should I gamble with my credit score or my Bitcoin? If you lose your sats you don't magically get them back after 7 years of good behavior like if you trash your credit score.

If you have credit borrow unsecured. If you need collateral use bitcoin.

Bitcoin is the last resort though?
