Mission

BTCBACKED

What we stand for

BTCBacked is a Bitcoin-first platform connecting borrowers and lenders through a secure, non-custodial marketplace.
We enable Bitcoin holders to unlock liquidity without selling their Bitcoin, while allowing lenders to earn yield on stablecoin loans backed by Bitcoin - the most pristine and liquid collateral.
Built on multi-signature security and automated collateral management, BTCBacked removes custodial risk and delivers a transparent, fair, and institution-grade lending experience.

Our principles

Bitcoin-first

Bitcoin-first

Bitcoin is the most liquid, resilient, and neutral form of collateral. Everything we build starts there.

Non-custodial by design

Non-custodial by design

BTCBacked never unilaterally controls Bitcoin collateral or funds. Custody remains distributed, verifiable, and enforced through multi-sig escrow.

Code-enforced

Code-enforced

Margin calls, liquidation thresholds, and enforcement follow predefined rules, not discretion.

AML-supervised

AML-supervised

BTCBacked operates in an AML-supervised and compliant framework, enabling users to transact with verified counterparties.
