Bitcoin Loan vs. Selling: What’s the Real Cost?

Let’s say you sell 1 BTC today at $118,000.


If Bitcoin hits $400,000 in the next few years, you’ve lost $282,000 in potential upside, plus you could owe taxes on the gain from when you sold.


Borrow instead.

You keep your BTC. You stay exposed to growth. And you still get the cash you need today.
