Our Co-Founder and CIO, Matt Dines, spoke with Bloomberg Radio’s Paul Sweeney about the value proposition behind our Build Secured Income Fund I — how we believe Bitcoin serves as compelling collateral compared to other options such as commercial real estate which we believe are more time intensive and costly to settle in the recovery process.
With Bitcoin, we focus on originating very conservatively into the space. But when we liquidate, you’re liquidating into a market that is global and trades 24/7, offers final settlement without any trusted intermediaries for [mitigated] counterparty risk. [We believe] you can liquidate when necessary in those adverse outcomes at full recovery, so a dollar in a dollar out, as a lender you like that. And settlement time can be minutes and seconds — not months, quarters, or years.
