Blockchain launches crypto-backed loans starting at 1.9%

ByBlockchain May 14, 2026

The company launches highly requested in-house lending feature for global users, delivering one of the most competitive crypto-backed lending offers available.

Today Blockchain announced the global launch of Crypto-Backed Loans, a new lending product that allows crypto holders to borrow against their digital assets without selling them.

The launch marks a significant expansion of Blockchain’s consumer and Wealth offering and positions the company as one of the first globally regulated crypto platforms to bring crypto-backed lending to clients at scale. Through its established international footprint, Blockchain.com is launching this product as crypto-backed lending surpasses more than $70 billion. 

With rates starting as low as 1.9% per year, Blockchain is launching one of the most competitive crypto-backed lending offers available today. The product is available globally and is especially designed for large crypto holders seeking competitive pricing, high borrowing capacity, and a premium client experience.

Crypto-backed loans allow users to use digital assets, including USDC, Bitcoin and Ethereum as collateral to access liquidity. For long-term holders, the product offers an alternative to selling assets to fund major expenses, such as property purchases, business investments, tax planning, or other high-value financial needs, while preserving future upside. Permissible uses vary across jurisdictions.

The launch of crypto-backed loans reinforces Blockchain.com’s position as a comprehensive financial hub. Operating across 70+ jurisdictions and having processed more than $1.2 trillion in transactions, Blockchain.com continues to expand its institutional-grade financial offerings while maintaining a focus on compliance, security, and transparency.
