Ledger has introduced Crypto Loan, a self-custodial lending feature within its wallet app that allows eligible users to pledge wrapped Bitcoin (cbBTC or wBTC) as collateral to borrow stablecoins USDC or USDT. This service, powered by Morpho via Yield.xyz, enables users to access liquidity without selling their Bitcoin or moving funds to centralized platforms, with all loan approvals secured on Ledger hardware devices. The move strengthens Ledger's position in crypto financial services, joining similar offerings from Coinbase and JPMorgan, and aims to help Bitcoin holders tap cash while retaining their assets. The feature is rolling out immediately to eligible users with plans for wider availability over time.
Ledger's new Bitcoin loan feature is introduced as context for crypto market activity.
