Strike CEO Jack Mallers Announces Lending Proof-of-Reserves, Volatility-Proof Loans, And Backs Tether Merger Plan
""We want you to trust us and know that we are who we say we are," Mallers said. The disclosure mechanism was developed in partnership with Tether, which Mallers credited with helping Strike build the transparency infrastructure."
"The two companies also jointly developed what Mallers called 'volatility-proof' bitcoin-backed loans, a structure that removes the risk of forced liquidation when bitcoin prices fall or broader markets drop."
"Mallers announced that Strike has secured a $2.1 billion credit facility, which he said gives the company capacity to meet demand at any order size within its lending business."
"Strike's bitcoin-backed loan and line-of-credit business has grown since launch, with users drawn to the ability to borrow against bitcoin rather than sell it."
Strike has launched a lending proof-of-reserves and a new bitcoin-backed loan structure in partnership with Tether. The company has seen growth in its bitcoin-backed loan business, allowing users to borrow against their bitcoin. Strike has reduced its loan rates, with APRs ranging from 10.5% to 7.49%. The lending proof-of-reserves ensures collateral verification, while the volatility-proof loans mitigate liquidation risks. A $2.1 billion credit facility has been secured to support lending demand, and a merger proposal with Tether Investments has been announced.
