APX Lending Launches Five-Year Bitcoin and Ethereum-Backed Credit Line
APX Lending has introduced a five-year revolving credit facility that allows customers to borrow against Bitcoin and Ethereum without repeatedly applying for new loans.
The product is structured as an ongoing line of credit rather than a conventional fixed-term loan. Once established, borrowers can draw liquidity, repay outstanding amounts and access available credit again during the five-year period.
Interest applies only to the amount currently borrowed, while the annual rate ranges from 10.49% to 11.99% depending on the outstanding balance.
APX Lending, which describes itself as a regulated digital asset lending platform, said its crypto-backed lending services have previously been used for business financing, debt repayment, mortgages and other expenses.
How the APX Crypto Credit Line Works
Under the new structure, borrowers establish the credit facility once and can subsequently access funds over its five-year term without submitting a new loan application for each withdrawal.
This revolving structure gives borrowers access to liquidity as needed while limiting interest charges to the portion of the facility that is actually drawn.
The amount available to borrow is not fixed. Instead, borrowing capacity changes with the market value of the Bitcoin or Ethereum pledged as collateral and the amount already outstanding under the facility.
The interest rate is set between 10.49% and 11.99% annually, with the applicable rate determined by the outstanding balance.
APX said the credit line does not carry origination, prepayment or liquidation fees. These terms distinguish the facility from lending arrangements where additional charges may apply when a loan is originated, repaid early or liquidated.
Bitcoin and Ethereum Collateral Held in Cold Storage
The credit facility is backed by Bitcoin and Ethereum deposited as collateral by clients.
According to APX, customer collateral is held in segregated cold-storage wallets provided by BitGo Trust. The company said the assets are not rehypothecated, meaning the collateral is not reused for other lending or investment activities.
APX also provides on-chain verification of collateral, allowing the pledged digital assets to be monitored through blockchain records.
The platform further uses automated monitoring of loan-to-value ratios. Because the value of cryptocurrency collateral can change with market prices, monitoring the relationship between collateral value and outstanding debt is an important part of the facility’s operation.
The borrowing capacity therefore remains linked to both the value of the pledged Bitcoin or Ethereum and the borrower’s existing balance.
APX Targets Flexible Crypto-Backed Liquidity
The five-year revolving structure is designed to give borrowers continued access to liquidity rather than requiring them to arrange a separate loan whenever financing is needed.
APX said customers have used its crypto-backed lending products for a range of financial purposes, including business funding, debt repayment, mortgage-related needs and other expenses.
The new facility maintains that lending model while allowing borrowers to reuse available credit after repayment during the five-year term.
With interest charged only on borrowed amounts, the structure is intended to allow customers to maintain access to the facility without paying interest on unused borrowing capacity.
The company’s stated custody and monitoring arrangements also place emphasis on the treatment of collateral throughout the loan period, with assets held in segregated cold storage and loan-to-value ratios monitored automatically.
