Strike Launches Bitcoin-Backed Lending Service, Lets Users Borrow Without Selling BTC

Announced Tuesday, the new service, Strike Lending, will initially roll out in select U.S. regions, with international expansion plans already underway.

“You shouldn’t have to sell the best-performing asset in human history to access cash,” said Mallers on X. “Now you don’t have to.”

The program is open to both individual and institutional users and offers borrowers the ability to use their Bitcoin as collateral while maintaining ownership. The move aligns with a broader industry trend, as companies like Coinbase and Xapo have recently expanded their lending services in response to a recovering crypto market.
