Jeonbuk Bank in South Korea has started offering won loans to corporate clients using Bitcoin held by a specialist custodian as collateral. The bank does not own or control the Bitcoin directly, relying instead on legal rights and a court-supervised sale process if a borrower defaults. This new lending model allows companies to access working capital without immediately selling their Bitcoin, though key loan terms like loan-to-value ratio, interest rates, and margin calls remain undisclosed. The initiative marks a cautious pilot program that could expand depending on demand and regulatory changes, potentially impacting credit infrastructure and Bitcoin market dynamics in Korea.
