What It Is
A loan designed to help you HODL.
Unlike a traditional loan that takes your credit score into account, a SALT loan is an asset-backed loan in which your cryptoassets act as collateral for your line of credit.

How We Keep Your Crypto Safe
Lead Capital Partner - BitGo
BitGo’s robust infrastructure, which supports over 800 tokens, allows SALT to confidently offer secure lending solutions, mitigating risks associated with asset storage. BitGo’s regulated custody services also align with SALT's commitment to providing a compliant and trusted lending platform, reassuring both borrowers and capital providers.
Institutional Wallet Provider - Fireblocks
We’ve partnered with Fireblocks – a trusted custody management platform that many top crypto companies rely on for the safe, secure transfer of collateral assets– and are excited about their approach to MPC technology primarily because it means enhanced security for you as well as faster transactions for both SALT and our customers.
Insurance
Similar to BitGo and Fireblocks, SALT maintains Cyber Insurance, meaning the company will be covered in the event of cyber-related incidents (e.g. cyber breaches, cyber extortion, technology errors or failures, loss of data assets, etc.) as well as theft of crypto assets resulting from such incidents. Additionally, for added coverage, Fireblocks’ eCrime Event also covers assets in transit.
Custody Agnostic
Our custody agnostic approach allows us to distribute risk, enhance security, reduce interest rates, fund loans more swiftly, and focus on expanding our suite of wealth preservation products.

You can redeem SALT Tokens on our platform to reduce your interest rate, pay loan interest, or pay fees. You can also use your SALT Tokens as a secondary collateral type for a crypto-backed loan (SALT Tokens can be used for up to 20 percent of your crypto asset collateral portfolio). To redeem SALT Tokens to get a lower interest rate on your loan, contact our loan servicing team for your custom quote. Please note that the SALT Tokens you redeem through our SALT Token Redemption program will be consumed at origination to lower the interest rate of your loan, or will be consumed if you use SALT Tokens to pay fees or interest. To learn more, see our Token page.
After deposit your blockchain asset collateral may be pledged or otherwise used (“rehypothecated”) in our capital facilities and trusted cryptocurrency derivative markets to facilitate hedging strategies or raise lending capital. SALT regularly monitors such transactions in order to maintain sufficient available capital for purposes of servicing our loans.
