The latest #Bitcoin crash has been rough, especially for anyone with BTC-backed loans. One thing that helped a lot of our members at Xapo Bank is that we restrict loans to 40% of their Bitcoin’s value – it gives an extra buffer when the market suddenly drops. But even with that, liquidations can still happen if you don’t stay on top of your loan health. We’ve put together a short, practical breakdown of 5 ways to reduce your liquidation risk (things like how much to borrow, keeping spare BTC aside, and reacting quickly when your Loan-to-Value (#LTV) moves). If you’re using your Bitcoin as collateral or thinking about it, this might be useful: 5 ways to protect your Bitcoin from liquidation:
A wild Friday, a calm plan! ATH >$126k → ~$80k (~-36%), ~-10% on 21 Nov. Feelings were loud; our framework stayed louder. That’s why Xapo Bank runs 40% LTV (vs 50–90% elsewhere): More buffer, lower liquidation risk when it matters. #Bitcoin ⚡️
Bitcoin #BlackFriday sale: No promo codes. No countdown timers. Just sats 35% off because weak hands panic-dumped again. OGs know the drill: When the fiat world queues for TVs, we quietly stack the hardest money ever created. 🧡🛒 For those of you in your first cycle, perfectly normal #Bitcoin behaviour.
Someone once said... "Buy when there's blood in the streets, even if it's your own" #Bitcoin OGs know!
Time in the market or timing the market... It's your call! #Bitcoin
