Bitcoin is increasingly held by institutions, but the credit market has yet to catch up in lending against it effectively. Despite advances like SEC approval of Bitcoin ETFs and new financing businesses, borrowing against Bitcoin remains rare and costly, with high rates and rigid terms. This is due to a financial system that doesn't fully understand Bitcoin's value as collateral, leading to borrowers facing unfavorable conditions. The next phase of Bitcoin's growth depends on developing credit markets that treat Bitcoin as serious collateral, enabling more efficient and fair lending for businesses holding Bitcoin on their balance sheets.
